EXHIBIT A 31 C -3 CUP No. 2016-24 July 11, 2016 Page 2 Project Description Clever Leaf is requesting approval of a CUP to allow the on-premise sale of alcoholic beverages to patrons of the restaurant. Pursuant to SAIVIC Section 41-196, eating establishments wishing to sell alcohol to diners require approval of a CUP; however, the use of the property as an eating establishment is permitted by right. The restaurant will combine two units to create a new restaurant space formerly occupied by Harbor Deli and K.I.T. Wireless. Clever Leaf began tenant Improvements in April 2016; Alcohol storage and display areas will consist of less than five percent of the floor area (Exhibits 4 and 5). The proposed hours of operation for the restaurant are from 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. daily, Proiect Background The subject site, Harbor Promenade, is located on the southwestern border of Santa Ana and contains multiple neighborhood-serving businesses, The development was originally built between 1989 and 1990 to host retail and eating establishment uses. Currently, the development contains nineteen units across three buildings, and Clever Leaf will be combining two existing units to create a new restaurant space. A parking analysis has been conducted to confirm that the site contains adequate parking supply (Exhibit 3). Clever Leaf is a new, full-service restaurant specializing in modernized Hong Kong-style barbeque food and cuisine served in an American-style atmosphere and style of service. This is the first restaurant for mother and son team Winnie and Darryl Kwok. Winnie is the owner of the restaurant, and Darryl will serve as the chef and operations manager. The menu will focus on the use of ingredients from local farms and suppliers. The food offerings will be seasonal, making use of organic produce, hormone- and antibiotic-free meat, and seafood from sustainable Sources. The applicant is requesting approval of a CUP to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption. Clever Leaf intends to provide a unique dining experience with its seasonal offerings and environmentally conscious sourcing. RroLect Anal sis y_ Conditional use permit requests are governed by Section 41-638 of the SAIVIC, Conditional use permit requests may be granted when it can be shown that the proposed project will not adversely impact the community. 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 31 C-4 CUP No. 2016 -24 July 11, 2016 Page 3 information„ staff has prepared the following analysis, which, in turn forms the basis for the recommendation contained In this report. The on- premise sale of alcoholic beverages to customers is intended to provide a service ancillary to the primary restaurant use. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional food - related amenity. The granting of the CUP for this space will allow the restaurant to serve complementary alcoholic beverages to their seasonal menu offerings and provide their guests with a full culinary experience, The proposed use will not be detrimental: to the health, safety, and welfare of the - community. The lead and management positions of the restaurant staff have previous restaurant experience and are knowledgeable regarding safety and service procedures of food, alcoholic, and nonalcoholic beverages. Additionally, all members of management and floor staff will have alcohol training and certification. The proposed ABC license will be in compliance with all other regulations, including alcohol storage and display area criteria set forth in Section 41- 196{8}(25) of the SAMC. Further, the site will be in compliance with all operational standards set forth in Section 41.196(g) of the SAME, which govern the on- premise sale of alcoholic beverages (Exhibit 6). Finally, the proposed ABC license will be consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan, including Goals 2 and 5 of the Land Use Element, which encourages land uses that enhance the City's economic and fiscal viability, that mitigate any potential impacts, and are compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses, Clever Leaf Is proposing to locate within an existing development that contains several other retail and eating establishments, and its operations will be compatible with the surrounding businesses. Police Department Analysls 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 such uses are mitigated to the greatest extent possible. For on -sale licenses, the Police Department compares crime in the project area to crime citywide, Crime data is collected by reporting district. When a project is located in a reporting district with more than 20 percent of the average crime rate citywide; the Police Department will consider this Information in making its recommendation. 31 C -5 CUP No. 2016-24 July 11, 2016 Page 4 The project is located in Reporting District No. 91. Reporting District No. 91 ranks 81 out of 102 reporting districts in the number of police related calls for service. This reporting district is below the average for criminal activity threshold established by the State for high crime. The Police Department contends that the operational standards and conditions of approval applicable to on- premise ABC licenses will mitigate any potential negative impacts to the surrounding community. Public Notification The project is not located within the boundaries of an established Neighborhood Association. However, 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. At the time of this printing, no correspondence, either written or electronic, had been received.
