WHEREAS, this Commission held a public hearing on November 10,
1997, on Conditional Use Permit Application No. 97-17, to allow a
24 hour drive-through service at a McDonald's restaurant to be
located at 1011 East Seventeenth Street;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS:
1. Based upon the evidence submitted at the abovesaid
hearing, this Council finds and determines as follows:
A. That the proposed use will provide a service or facility
which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood
or the community.
The 24 hour drive-through service at the McDonald's restaurant
will contribute to the well being of the community by providing a
facility that serves meals between the hours of 12:00 a.m. and 5:00
a.m. The extended hours of the drive-through will also provide
additional employment opportunities to the neighborhood and local
community.
B. 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 24 hour drive-through window is located 200 feet away from
the adjacent residential use to mitigate noise impacts to an
insignificant level and will not affect those residing in the
vicinity. The applicant agrees to provide window lighting in
compliance with the City's security ordinance and follow a
sweeping/maintenance schedule of the parking lot (See Attachment
B). These measures will ensure that the project will not be
detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons
residing or working in the vicinity.
C. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the
present economic stability or future economic development of
property in the surrounding area;
The 24 hour drive-through window will contribute to the
economic viability of the restaurant and contribute to the economic
stability and development by providing services and jobs to the
surrounding area.
D. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations
and conditions specified in this chapter for such use; and
Approval of the applicant's conditional use permit will bring
the property into compliance with all applicable zoning regulations
in Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code.
E. 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 24 hour operation of a drive-through window service does
not alter the commercial use that exists on site and has no impact
on the commercial use of this parcel as prescribed by the General
Business District (GBD) land use designation.
2. Conditional Use Permit No. 97-17 is hereby approved as
conditioned in Attachment A and Attachment B, attached hereto and
incorporated herein.
