Request of Applicant
Michael Ritter, representing Ritter's Steam Kettle Cooking Restaurant, is requesting approval of a
conditional use permit for a Type 41 Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license to allow the on-
premise sale and consumption of beer and wine at an existing restaurant. Establishments that sell
alcoholic beverages require a conditional use permit pursuant to Section 41 -196 of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code (SAMC).
Protect Location and Site Description
Ritter's Steam Kettle Cooking (SKS) Restaurant is located within an existing multi- tenant commercial
center on MacArthur Boulevard, just west of Bristol Street. The existing commercial center is
approximately 2.06 acres in size and contains 21,328 square feet of building area, as remodeled and
expanded in 2011. The site parking and drive aisles are also integrated with the adjacent 1,800
square foot drive through restaurant.
The Gateway Plaza project site includes three buildings with 11 tenant spaces, occupied by a variety
of retail, medical office and restaurant uses. The Ritter SKS Restaurant beer and wine license is
proposed at 1421 West MacArthur Boulevard, Unit G and includes a 2,503 square foot tenant space.
A total of 152 on -site parking spaces are provided for the mixture of commercial uses for the center.
The site is surrounded by multiple - family residential to the north and west, and commercial uses to
south and east (Exhibits 1, 2 and 3).

Project Description
Ritter's Steam Kettle Cooking Restaurant is requesting approval for a new Type 41 ABC license to
allow the on- premise sale of beer and wine at the existing eating establishment. Specializing in Cajun
cuisine, the restaurant offers approximately 46 seats within its 2,448 square foot space. The on-
premise sale of alcoholic beverages to customers is intended to provide a service ancillary to the
primary restaurant use. The proposed hours of operation for the restaurant are seven days per week,
11:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. (midnight) Monday through Saturday, and 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. on
Sundays.
The storage and display of alcoholic beverage will be located in two areas; within the barldining
portion of the restaurant and an employee -only area. The storage area adjacent to the dining area is
approximately nine square feet, and intended primarily for the display of wines. In addition, 25 square
feet of enclosed cooler adjacent to the kitchen will be set aside for the storage of beer. The total
square footage dedicated to alcoholic beverage storage and display will be approximately 46 square
feet, representing less than two percent of the total gross floor area of the market. This percentage of
alcohol storage area is below the Santa Ana Municipal Code's maximum for eating establishments
serving alcoholic beverage; not to exceed five percent of the gross floor area of the restaurant
(Exhibits 4 and 5).
Proiect Backaround
Opening its doors for business in Santa Ana June 2013, Ritter's SKC Restaurant is a full- service, sit -
down eating establishment that specializes in 'live action eating experience' where the chef cooks in
front of customers in a steam kettle. Ritter's SKC occupies an existing tenant space that once
housed another restaurant, Pat A Chou, which opened in July 2011 as part of the commercial center
remodel and expansion.
General Plan and Zoning Consistency
The General Plan land use designation for the site is General Commercial (GC). General
Commercial districts provide accessible commercial development throughout the City and serve the
commercial needs of adjacent residential uses. These districts also provide important neighborhood
facilities and services such as this restaurant. The project site is consistent with this General Plan
land use designation.
The zoning for the site is Arterial Commercial (C -2). The General Commercial zoning district
allows for retail and service uses such as the existing restaurant, making the proposed use
consistent with the zoning code.

Proiect Analysis
Conditional Use Permit requests are governed by Section 41 -638 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code
(SAMC). Conditional Use Permit requests may be granted when it can be shown that the following
can be established.
That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well
being of the neighborhood or community.
That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to
the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity.
That the proposed use adversely will not affect the present economic stability or future economic
development of properties surrounding the area.
That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for
such use.
That the proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the city or any specific plan
applicable to the area of the proposed use.
If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the conditional use permit. Conversely,
the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Using this information staff has prepared
the following analysis, which, in turn forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report.
In analyzing the conditional use permit request, staff believes that the following findings of fact
warrant approval of the conditional use permit.
The proposed alcohol beverage license will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant
customers to purchase beer and wine with their meals. This will thereby provide a benefit to
the surrounding community by providing a restaurant with an additional and complementary
food - related amenity. Additionally, conditions have been placed this 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.
The proposed license for the on -sale consumption of beer and wine at this location will not be
detrimental to persons residing or working in the vicinity because conditions have been placed on
the alcoholic beverage control license that will mitigate any potential negative or adverse impacts
created by the use. In addition, the use will occur within the premises and is incidental to the
restaurant use.

• The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but will instead allow
the restaurant to be competitive with other restaurants that offer alcoholic beverage for sale to their
guests. Moreover, the offering of beer and wine allow Ritter's SKS Restaurant to remain
economically viable and contribute to the overall success of the Gateway Plaza commercial center,
helping to decrease the number of vacant space that may affect the economic well -being of the site.
• As conditioned, the proposed Type 41 ABC license will be in compliance with all applicable
regulations and conditions imposed on a retail business selling alcohol pursuant to Chapter 41 of
the Santa Ana Municipal Code. The business will be maintained as a bona -fide eating
establishment as defined by Section 23038 of the California Business and Professions Code,
having suitable kitchen facilities and supplying a variety of foods commonly ordered at various
hours of the day. Additionally, the restaurant will utilize less than two percent of the gross floor area
for the display and storage of alcoholic beverages, which is below the maximum threshold
established by the SAMC.
• The proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the land Use Element
encourages land uses that accommodate the City's needs for goods and services. A full- service
restaurant with an ancillary alcohol license provides a dining service to the residents of Santa Ana,
as well as visitors to the surrounding South Coast Metro area. Further, restaurant and ancillary
uses such as off- premise alcohol sales are permitted within the General Commercial (GC) land use
designation. The proposed project is not located in a specific plan area in the City.
Police Department Analysis
The Police Department reviews conditional use permit applications for the sale and service of
alcoholic beverages in order to ensure that the potential crime and nuisance behaviors associated
with alcohol consumption are mitigated to the greatest extent possible. For on -sale licenses the
Police Department analyzes the crime rate in the area using the standards and definitions contained
in the Business and Professions Code Section 23948.4(c)(2), which also are utilized by the State
Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). This section defines "reported crimes' as criminal
homicide, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny theft, and motor vehicle theft,
combined with all arrests for other crimes, both felonies and misdemeanors, except traffic citations.
The Police Department then compares the number of such crimes in the reporting district as
compared to the number of crimes in other reporting districts. In keeping with the standard used by
ABC [Business and Professions Code Section 23948.4(a)(1)], should the Police Department
determine that the reporting district has a 20 percent greater number of reported crimes than the
average number found in all reporting districts, the Police Department will consider this information
in making its recommendation, which could result in a recommendation of denial.
1421 West MacArthur Boulevard, Unit G is located in Reporting District No. 130. This reporting
district is 15 percent above the average reporting for all districts, which is below the 20 percent
threshold established by the State for high crime. Conditions of approval are included as required
by the SAMC that are adequate to address any concerns.

Public Notification
While this project site is not located within the boundaries of any Neighborhood Associations, a
courtesy call was provided to the chairperson for the South Coast Neighborhood Association
(neighborhood east of the project site); a notice was also mailed 10 days prior to this public hearing.
The project site itself was posted with a notice advertising this public hearing, a notice was
published in the Orange County Reporter and mailed notices were sent to all property owners and
occupants within 500 feet of the project site. At the time of this printing, no correspondence, either
written or electronic, had been received from any members of the public.
CEQA Compliance
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act the recommended action is exempt for
further review per Section 15301. The Class 1 exemption allows the licensing of existing facilities with
no expansion of the existing use. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2013 -57 will be
filed for this project.
Conclusion
Based on the analysis provided within this report, staff recommends that the Planning Commission
approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2013 -25 as conditioned.

ancillary service to the restaurant customers to purchase
beer and wine with their meals. This will thereby provide a
benefit to the surrounding community by providing a
restaurant with an additional and complementary food -

31 B -13
The restaurant will offer a walkable dining alternative for

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 consumption of beer

beverage control license that will mitigate any potential
negative or adverse impacts created by the use. In addition,
the use will occur within the premises and is incidental to the
restaurant use.
3. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic
stability or future economic development of properties surrounding
the area?

stability of the area, but will instead allow the restaurant to
be competitive with other restaurants that offer alcoholic
beverage for sale to their guests. Moreover, the offering of
beer and wine allow Ritter's SKS Restaurant to remain
economically viable and contribute to the overall success of
the Gateway Plaza commercial center, helping to decrease
the number of vacant space that may affect the economic
well -being of the site.
4. Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and conditions
specified in Chapter 41 for such use?
As conditioned, the proposed Type 41 ABC license will be in
compliance with all applicable regulations and conditions
imposed on a restaurant business selling alcohol pursuant to

will be maintained as a bona -fide eating establishment as
defined by Section 23038 of the California Business and
Professions Code, having suitable kitchen facilities and
supplying a variety of foods commonly ordered at various
hours of the day. Additionally, the restaurant will utilize less

storage of alcoholic beverages, which is below the maximum
threshold established by the SAMC.
5. Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan or any
specific plan of the City?
