RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution approving Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -08 as conditioned.
Request of Applicant
Jalil Haeri, representing Bella Cocina restaurant, is requesting approval of a conditional use permit for
a Type 41 Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license for the on- premise sale and consumption of
beer and wine at 1501 West MacArthur Boulevard, Unit A. Establishments that sell alcoholic
beverages require a conditional use permit (CUP) pursuant to Section 41 -196 of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code (SAMC).
Project Location and Site Description
Bella Cocina is currently operating within an existing multi - tenant commercial center on MacArthur
Boulevard, just west of Bristol Street. The existing commercial center is approximately 2.5 -acres in
size and contains 23,050 square feet of building area, as remodeled and expanded in 2011. The site
parking and drive aisle are 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 Bella Cocina beer and wine license is proposed at
1501 West MacArthur Boulevard, Unit A, within a 2,400 square foot tenant space. A total of 152 on-
site parking spaces are provided for the mixture of commercial uses in the center. The site is
surrounded by multiple - family residential to the north and west, and commercial uses to the south and
east (Exhibits 1, 2 and 3).
Prolect Description
Bella Cocina is requesting approval of a Type 41 Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license to allow the
on- premise sale of beer and wine as part of the existing eating establishment's operations. The
restaurant is a full - service, 2,400- square foot sit -down eating establishment that holds approximately
EXHIBIT A
31A-3
Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -08
May 27, 2014
Page 2
66 seats within its dining room and 45 seats in the outdoor seating area. The proposed patio area is
enclosed with 36 -inch high glass screens that are in compliance with all applicable City and State
Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control's standards. The on- premise sale of alcoholic beverages
to customers is intended to provide a service ancillary to the primary restaurant use. The hours of
operation for the restaurant are from 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., seven days per week.
The storage area for alcoholic beverages will be located on a display and within two coolers behind the
service counter within the restaurant. The alcohol display and the two coolers total 40.4 square feet in
size, which is 1.7 percent of the floor area of the restaurant. This percentage of alcohol storage area is
below the Santa Ana Municipal Code's maximum for eating establishments serving alcoholic
beverages of five percent of the gross floor area of the restaurant (Exhibits 4 and 5).
Protect Background
Bella Cocina occupies an existing tenant space in a multi -unit commercial center that previously
housed an eating establishment until early 2013. Because the space was previously used for an eating
establishment that did not hold a conditional use permit to allow the on -site sale of alcoholic beverages,
a CUP is required to permit the sale of alcohol at the site.
General Plan and Zoning Consistency
The General Plan land use designation for the site is General Commercial (GC). General Commercial
land -use districts provide highly visible and accessible commercial development along the City's
arterial transportation corridors and provide important neighborhood facilities and services, such as this
restaurant. The project site is consistent with this General Plan land use designation.
The parcel is located within the General Commercial (C -2) zoning district. The C -2 zoning district
allows for retail and service uses such as restaurants, making the proposed use consistent with the
zoning designation.
Protect Analysis
Conditional Use Permit requests are governed by Section 41 -638 of the 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.
31A-4
Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -08
May 27, 2014
Page 3
That the proposed use will not adversely 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
by allowing them the ability to purchase beer and wine with their food throughout the establishment.
This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional and
complementary food - related amenity. Additionally, 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.
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
primary restaurant use.
The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but will instead allow
the restaurant to compete with other nearby restaurants that also offer alcoholic beverages for sale
to their guests and other visitors. Moreover, the offering of alcoholic beverages allows the
restaurant to remain economically viable and contributes to the overall success of the small,
neighborhood- serving shopping center in which it is located, helping to decrease the number of
vacant tenant spaces that may affect the economic viability of the site.
As conditioned, the proposed project will be in compliance with all applicable regulations and
conditions imposed on a restaurant selling beer and wine pursuant to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code and the guidelines established by the Planning Commission for restaurants selling
alcohol with their meal. The facility has the kitchen equipment necessary to be considered a bona
fide restaurant use and is eligible to obtain a restaurant related alcoholic beverage control license.
Additionally, the restaurant will utilize only 1.7 percent of the gross floor area for the display and
storage of alcoholic beverages, which is below the maximum threshold established by the SAMC.
31A-5
Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -08
May 27, 2014
Page 4
The proposed use will not adversely affect the City's 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 area. Further, restaurant and ancillary uses such
as on- 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. Further, Policy
2.9 of the Land Use Element supports developments that create a business environment that is
safe and attractive. The physical improvement to the building will create an enhancement to the
existing center and promote commercial activity in the area. Policy 5.5 of the Land Use Element
encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. The
Bella Cocina restaurant is located in a commercial area and is compatible with the surrounding
commercial businesses and nearby residential uses.
Police Department Analysis
The Police Department reviews conditional use permit applications for the sale of alcoholic
beverages because there is a strong correlation between the availability of alcohol and crime.
Studies have shown that alcohol is a contributing factor in crimes, such as drunk driving, fatal traffic
collisions, homicide, assaults, rape, domestic violence, drunk in public and other nuisance type of
offenses.
The Police Department considered two factors when reviewing this type of application: crime rate
and sensitive land uses. It has been determined that 1501 West MacArthur Boulevard is located in
an area that has an average number of reported crimes when compared against all crime reporting
districts and is considered average in police - related incidents based on standards established under
Business and Professions Code Section 23958.4. This site is located within Reporting District
No. 130. No sensitive uses were found in the immediate area that might be impacted by this action.
As a result, the Police Department has evaluated the applicant's request and believes that the
proposed ABC license will not adversely affect the surrounding community.
Public Notification
The project site is not located within the boundaries of any Neighborhood Association; however, the
chairperson of the adjacent South Coast Neighborhood Association was contacted by staff to
discuss the proposed project. The association president did not raise any issues during the
telephone discussion. The project site 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 tenants within 500 feet of the project site and to the South Coast neighborhood
association president. At the time of printing of this report, no areas of concern were raised, nor had
any correspondence, either written or electronic, been received from any members of the public.

CEQA Comoliance
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 operating, permitting and
licensing of existing private structures with negligible or no expansion of the existing use. The
proposed application is to approve an alcoholic beverage control license and allow the sale of beer
and wine within an existing commercial building. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No.
2014 -34 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. 2014 -08 as conditioned.
