The Zoning Administrator of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. The applicant is requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 2012- 12 for a Type 47 (on-sale general) Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license to allow the sales of beer, wine and distilled spirits for the property located at 220 East Fourth Street, Suite 102. B. Conditional Use Permit No. 2012-12 came before the Zoning Administrator of the City of Santa Ana for a duly noticed public hearing on August 15, 2012. C. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-196 requires a conditional use permit for the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption. D. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-638 authorizes the Zoning Administrator to approve a conditional use permit upon making certain findings: 1. Will the proposed use provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community? The proposed alcohol beverage license use will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant and thereby benefit the community by providing an additional food-related amenity at the eating establishment. Conditions have been placed on the alcoholic beverage control license which will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. Resolution No. 2012-10 Page 1 of 7 2. Will the proposed use under the circumstances of the particular case be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity? The proposed license for the on-sale of beer, wine, and distilled spirits at The Playground will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the area because the use, as conditioned, will not create any negative or adverse impacts. The sale of alcoholic beverages will occur inside of the premises an in a seating area on the adjacent East End Promenade and is incidental to the restaurant use. Alcohol will stop being served on the patio area one hour prior to closing time. 3. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area? The project site is a commercial building that currently has a restaurant use and promotes a balance of land uses which enhances the City's economic and fiscal viability. Alcoholic beverages on the menu at The Playground will augment the culinary experience which will increase the patronage to the restaurant, thereby enhancing the profitability of the business and identifying the use and site as economically stable and viable for the surrounding properties in the area. 4. Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use? As conditioned, the proposed project will be in compliance with all applicable regulations and conditions imposed on a restaurant selling beer, wine and distilled spirits pursuant to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code. 5. Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan or any specific plan of the City? The proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan. Goal 1.0 of the Land Use Element requires that land use decisions promote a balance of land uses to address basic community needs. The restaurant offers people a place to recreate and eat, thereby serving the community. Goal 2.0 of the Land Use Element requires that land use decisions promote land uses which enhance the City's economic and fiscal viability. Therefore a variety of land uses that serve Resolution No. 2012-10 Page2of7 the public are necessary to offer a wide range of goods and services. E. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act the recommended action is exempt from further review per Section 15321 Class 21 because it is an action by a regulatory agency to enforce a license, and will be in conformance with all city codes and requirements. Categorical Exemption Review No. 2012-28 will be filed for this project. Section 2. The Zoning Administrator of the City of Santa Ana hereby approves Conditional Use Permit No. 2012-12 as conditioned in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein.
