The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. Joey Ly with Tait and Associates (“Applicant”), representing FuRaiBo Restaurant, is requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 2018-09 to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption for the property located at 3396 South Bristol Street. B. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-196 requires approval of a conditional use permit for establishments wishing to sell alcohol for on- or off-premises consumption. C. On May 14, 2018, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on Conditional Use Permit No. 2018-09. D. The Planning Commission determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant this Conditional Use Permit pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) Section 41-638, have been established for Conditional Use Permit No. 2018-09 to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption: 1.That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. The proposed sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption at this location will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant’s customers by allowing them the ability to purchase a variety of alcoholic beverages with their meal. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional and complementary food related amenity. Operational standards applicable to the alcoholic beverage control license will mitigate any potential impacts EXHIBIT 1 5-7 created by the use and ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. 2. 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. The proposed sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption at this location will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity because the operational standards applicable to the alcoholic beverage control license will address any potential negative or adverse impacts created by the use. FuRaiBo is a bona-fide restaurant and the addition of alcohol will be ancillary to the main use. All of the operational standards identified in SAMC Sec. 41-196 will apply to this establishment. Finally, the sale of alcohol in the restaurant is intended to be incidental to the primary use as an eating establishment and will occur within the premises. 3. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. 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 offer a full selection of alcoholic beverages for sale to their customers. Moreover, the offering of alcoholic beverages will allow FuRaiBo restaurant to remain economically viable and compete with nearby full-service restaurants in the local vicinity and contribute to the overall success of the City of Santa Ana. 4. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. The proposed conditional use permit will be in compliance with all applicable regulations and operational standards imposed on a restaurant selling alcoholic beverages for on- premises consumption pursuant to Chapter 41 of the SAMC. The facility will be maintained as a full-service, bona-fide eating establishment, having suitable kitchen facilities and supplying an assortment of foods. Additionally, the restaurant will utilize less than five (5%) percent of the gross floor area for display and storage of alcoholic beverages, which is the maximum threshold established by the Santa Ana Municipal Code. Operational standards will ensure the project remains in compliance with all applicable codes and regulations 5-8 related to alcohol sales to ensure that the use does not impact neighboring properties or create an attractive nuisance. 5. 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. The proposed sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption at this location will not adversely affect the General Plan. The granting of this conditional use permit supports several policies contained in the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City’s needs for goods and services. Providing a variety of full-service restaurants that provide alcoholic beverages as part of their menu offers additional dining options for Santa Ana residents and visitors. Furthermore, Policy 2.9 of the Land Use Element supports developments that create a business environment that is safe and attractive. Operational standards for the proposed ABC license will maintain a safe and attractive environment in the neighborhood. Finally, Policy 5.5 of the Land Use Element encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. FuRaiBo is located within a commercial center and its operation is compatible with the surrounding commercial businesses. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) the recommended action is exempt from CEQA per Section 15061(b) (3). This exemption applies to projects where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. The project proposes to allow the on-premises sale of alcoholic beverages at a full-service restaurant and minor tenant improvements. There is no reasonable possibility that the project will have a significant effect on the environment due to the facility having the necessary infrastructure to operate the proposed use and no new expansion of the existing building is proposed. Section 3. The Applicant agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the City of Santa Ana, its officials, officers, agents, and employees, from any and all liability, claims, actions or proceedings that may be brought arising out of its approval of this project, and any approvals associated with the project, including, without limitation, any environmental review or approval, except to the extent caused by the sole negligence of the City of Santa Ana. 5-9 Section 4.
