• RESOLUTION N0.2006-010
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF SANTA ANA DENYING CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT NO. 2006-03 FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT
2725 NORTH BRISTOL STREET (APPEAL NO. 2006-01)
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA
ANA AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds,
determines and declares as follows:
A. Applicant is requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 2006-03 for a
Type 21 Alcoholic Beverage Control license, which allows the sale of
distilled spirits for off-premise consumption, for the property located at the
2725 North Bristol Street.
B. Conditional Use Permit No. 2006-03 came before the Zoning Administrator
of the City of Santa Ana for a public hearing on April 5, 2006. The Zoning
• Administrator denied Conditional Use Permit No. 2006-03.
C. On May 8, 2006, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public
hearing for Conditional Use Permit No. 2006-03 (Appeal No. 2006-01). The
hearing before the Planning Commission was de novo and the applicant
bore the burden of persuasion.
D. The Planning Commission determines that the following findings, which
must be established in order to grant a Conditional Use Permit from the
provisions of the Santa Ana Municipal Code, have not been established:
Will the proposed use provide a service or facility which will contribute
to the general well being of the neighborhood or community?
The proposed Rite-Aid will not provide a service to the
community since there are two other establishments in the
vicinity that offer beer, wine and distilled spirits for off-premise
sales. The off-premise alcoholic beverage license has the
potential to attract nuisances to the adjacent commercial and
residential area.
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 off-premise general liquor license will be
detrimental to persons residing and working in the area as the
off-premise sale of alcoholic beverages has the potential to
create nuisances such as loitering, littering, disturbing the
peace, graffiti and other crimes that impact surrounding
businesses and residential neighborhoods.
3. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic stability
or future economic development of properties surrounding the area?
Rite Aid is located in amulti-tenant center that is suitable for
the proposed use. However, a concentration of off-premise
sale outlets not only increases the availability of alcohol but
the nuisance crimes that impact the economic viability of the
adjacent commercial area and neighboring residential
developments.
4. Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and conditions
specified in Chapter 41 for such use?
The proposed project will not be in compliance with all
applicable conditions of Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code regarding off-premise general liquor license
since this location met two out of the five criteria for over
concentration.
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. Grocery stores and ancillary uses such as off-premise
general liquor license are permitted within the General
Commercial (GC) land use designation. The proposed project
is not located in a specific plan area in the City.
E. This project was reviewed in accordance with the Guidelines for the
California Environmental Quality Act. The recommendation is exempt from
further review pursuant to Section 15270. This exemption applies to
projects which a public agency disapproves. Statutory Exemption
Environmental Review No. 2005-149 will be filed for this project.
Section 2. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana after conducting
the public hearing hereby denies Appeal No. 2006-01 and denies Conditional Use Permit
No. 2006-03. This decision is based upon the evidence submitted at the above said
hearing, which includes but is not limited to: the Request for Planning Commission Action
dated May 8, 2006 and exhibits attached thereto; and the public testimony, all of which are
incorporated herein by this reference.
