• The addition of the alcoholic beverage control license to the
proposed theater, restaurant and bar complex will provide an
additional amenity for the theater patrons by allowing them
to purchase beer, wine and distilled spirits with their food at
the restaurant and bar levels. The sale of alcoholic
beverages with food items will not create any negative or
adverse impacts to the surrounding community because the
sale of alcoholic beverages will occur inside of the premises
and will be incidental to the theater and restaurant use.
Moreover, conditions are imposed to mitigate any impacts
that would otherwise affect the health, safety, or general
welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity.
3. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic
stability or future economic development of properties surrounding
the area?
The addition of alcoholic beverages to the menu of amenities
at the proposed restaurant and theater will increase the
patronage to the performing arts complex thereby enhancing
the profitability of the business, which will contribute to the
economic stability of surrounding properties in the area.
4. Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and conditions
. specified in Chapter 41 for such use?
As conditioned, the proposed project will be in compliance
with all applicable regulations and conditions imposed on a
restaurant selling beer, wine and distilled spirits pursuant to
Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code. Additionally,
the project meets the guidelines established by the Planning
Commission for restaurants selling alcohol with their meals.
5. Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan or any
specific plan of the City?
The proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan.
Theaters, restaurants and ancillary uses, such as alcoholic
beverage control licenses, are permitted within the District
Center (DC) General Plan designation and the Midtown
Specific Plan (SP3) zoning district.

recommended action is exempt from further review. Categorical Exemption
Environmental Review No. 2004-184 will be filed for this project.
