OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING

TYPE 20 ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONTROL
LICENSE FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1301
EAST SEVENTEENTH STREET
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. 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.
2011-12 for a Type 20 Alcoholic Beverage Control license, which
allows the sale of beer and wine for off-premise consumption, for the
property located at 1301 East Seventeenth Street.

Administrator of the City of Santa Ana for a duly noticed public
hearing on May 18, 2011. At that time, the Zoning Administrator
continued the matter for a further hearing on June 15, 2011.
C. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-196 requires a conditional use
permit for the sale of alcoholic beverages.
D. The Zoning Administrator determines that the following findings,
which must be established in order to grant a Conditional Use Permit
pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-638, have been
established:
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 Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC)
license will provide an additional service and
convenience to the community by allowing patrons the
ability to purchase alcoholic beverages in conjunction
with prescription and over-the counter medicines as
• well as a variety of general merchandise and sundries
to the general public. The ABC license will not

• negatively affect the surrounding community as
conditions of approval have been included to reduce
potential impacts and avoid the potential for an
attractive nuisance being established. By adding beer
and wine to the other items already offered in the store,
Walgreens can better serve the community by
providing added convenience and aone-stop shopping
experience.
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 ABC license will not be detrimental to
persons residing and working in the area as the use, as
conditioned, will not create any negative or adverse
impacts. Walgreens is an established national chain
with established policies and procedures including a
national employee training program focused on security
and alcohol responsibility which will ensure that beer
and wine sales are handled in a responsible manner.
3. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic
• stability or future economic development of properties
surrounding the area?
The approval of an ABC license for the retail
establishment at this location will positively influence
the present and future economic stability of the property
by further diversifying the products and services offered
within the store and area in general. Further, this will
allow Walgreens to remain competitive with similar
uses in the area which offer beer and wine sales as
part of their retail operations.
4. Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and
conditions specified in Chapter 41 of the S.A.M.C. for such
use?
The proposed alcohol license will be in compliance
with all applicable conditions of Chapter 41 of the
Santa Ana Municipal Code regarding off-premise
general liquor licenses. Conditions of approval have
been added to ensure the project remains in
compliance with all applicable codes and regulations
• related to alcohol sales to ensure that the use does
Resolution No. 2011-08
Page 2 of 7
• not impact neighboring properties or create an
attractive nuisance.
5. Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan or any
specific plan of the City?
The proposed project will not adversely affect the
General Plan. Retail establishments and regulated
uses such as Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC)
licenses are permitted within the General Commercial
(GC) General Plan land use designation. In addition,
the project is consistent with Goals 2 and 5 of the Land
Use Element of the City's General Plan which promote
land uses that enhance the City's economic and fiscal
viability and that mitigate any potential impacts.
E. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act the
recommended action is exempt from further review per Section
15061.(b)(3), which is a general rule exemption applying to projects
that have no possibility of having a significant impact on the
environment. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No.
2010-148 will be filed for this project.
