Request of Applicant Cynthia Eppeldauer, representing The Marke at South Coast Metro, is requesting approval of a conditional use permit for a Type 47 Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license for the on- premise sale and consumption of beer, wine and distilled spirits within a new apartment complex located at 100 East MacArthur Boulevard. Establishments that sell alcoholic beverages require a conditional use permit (CUP) pursuant to Section 41 -196 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC). Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located at 100 -140 East MacArthur Boulevard and is situated on the southeast corner of Main Street and MacArthur Boulevard. The site is approximately 4.15 acres in size and is rectangular in shape. The site is located within the 43 -acre MacArthur Place South master planned development, a mixed -use development located on the south side of MacArthur Boulevard between Main Street and the Newport-Costa Mesa (SR -55) Freeway. The subject parcel is developed with The Marke, a 300 -unit apartment complex with one level of subterranean parking and five levels of above grade parking that has recently opened for residential occupancy. Also within MacArthur Place South are two high rise residential towers, six office buildings, a food /retail building, a DoubleTree Club hotel, a Courtyard by Marriott Hotel and four parking structures. The site is surrounded by a combination of commercial and multi- family residential uses to the north; office and industrial uses to the south, multi - family residential, office and hotel uses to the east; and commercial, single- family and multi - family residential uses to the west (Exhibits 1, 2 and 3). EXHIBIT A 31A-3 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -10 June 9, 2014 Page 2 Protect Description The applicant Is proposing to obtain a Type 47 ABC license to provide food and alcoholic beverage service at The Marke as part of the operation of the roof top recreation deck. The Type 47 ABC license requires the applicant to maintain a kitchen facility, operate as a restaurant and be in compliance with City and State standards for restaurants possessing an ABC license. The applicant intends to obtain an ABC license in order to provide an additional amenity to the residents and their guests of the complex. The alcohol sales is intended to be an added amenity; as a result, residents and their guests will have the option to either purchase alcoholic beverages from The Marke or bring their own to the recreation deck or other common areas for consumption. Alcohol sales will take place within the 5,600 square foot Recreation Building, which is located on the roof top recreation deck. As a Type 47 license requires food sales in addition to the sale of alcohol, one of the amenities within the Recreation Building will be a 450 square foot, full - service - commercial kitchen. The recreation deck will also include amenities such as a fitness center, bowling alley, heated pool, spa, outdoor seating areas and cabanas, an outdoor theater and a clubhouse. These amenities are intended to promote a "resort living" type of environment that would typically be found at a resort hotel. Although the sale of food and alcohol will occur on the recreation deck, approval of the ABC license will also allow residents and guests the ability to consume purchased alcohol within the two ground floor courtyards provided for the project. The north courtyard, which is approximately 9,700 square feet in size, will contain amenities such as a water element, a fire pit, a barbeque, outdoor seating and an enhanced landscaped pallet. The south courtyard, approximately 6,900 square feet in size, will contain amenities similar to those found in the north courtyard. The proposed ABC license is a unique concept that will be a "first -of- its - kind" in Santa Ana as well as the county. The applicant is requesting approval to allow the on- premise sale of alcoholic beverages to customers between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 midnight and seven days per week. Although the actual sale of food and alcohol are expected to occur up to four days per week, the applicant has requested approval to allow sales to occur every day, with the actual hours and days of sales depending on the type of events held at The Marke. The events expected could include beer and /or wine tastings, poolside food and beverage service and other similar social events that are intended to bring the residents together in a social setting. The storage area for alcoholic beverages will be located on a display shelf and locked liquor storage cabinet, both located in the commercial kitchen. The alcohol display shelf and locked cabinet total 33 square feet in size, which is 0.4 percent of the floor area of the Recreation Building. This percentage of alcohol storage area is below the Santa Ana Municipal Code's maximum of five percent of the gross floor area of the establishment serving alcohol (Exhibits 4 and 5). 31A-4 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -10 June 9, 2014 Page 3 ProiectBackaround The subject site is part of a 9.8 -acre, three parcel development that is located within the former Hutton Center development that was entitled in 2005. The entitlements allowed three 25 -story high -rise towers, a six -story mid -rise residential /office building, and 14,000 square feet of retail and restaurant uses that was modified in 2009 to allow a Courtyard by Marriott hotel. Two of the high- rise towers, the 349 -unit Skyline Towers at 9 and 15 MacArthur Place, were completed in October 2008, The development formerly approved on this site, The Montage by Integral Development, was purchased by Lyon Communities and re- entitled in 2011. Occupancy of the first 70 units of The Marke began in May, 2014. The remaining 230 units were recently released for occupancy, with move -ins scheduled to begin shortly. General Plan and Zonina Consistencv The General Plan land use designation for the site is District Center (DC), which allows for major development sites such as the mufti - family residential development and ancillary uses such as alcoholic sales licenses. District Centers are designed to serve as anchors to the City's commercial corridors, and to accommodate major development activity. The project site and proposed use is consistent with this General Plan land use designation. The zoning for the site is Specific Development No. 76 /MacArthur Place South Mixed Use District (SD -76). The SD -76 designation is a mixed use zone that allows office, restaurant, retail, hotel and residential land uses. The zoning designation also allows uses such as alcoholic sales licenses, making the proposed use consistent with the zoning designation. Project Analysis Conditional Use Permit requests are governed by Section 41 -638 of the SAMC. Conditional Use Permit requests may be granted when it can be shown that the following can be established: • That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. • 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. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. • That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use, • 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. 31A-5 Conditional Use Permit No, 2014 -10 June 9, 2014 Page 4 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 information staff has prepared the following analysis, which, in turn forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report. In analyzing the conditional use permit request, staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant approval of the conditional use permit. • The proposed alcohol beverage license will provide an ancillary service to the residents and guests of The Marke, a 300 -unit apartment community. The proposed ABC license will allow residents and guests the ability to purchase beer, wine and distilled spirits with their food purchase and consume their food and beverages on the recreation deck or within the north and south courtyards. Additionally, conditions have been placed on the alcoholic beverage control license which will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. • The proposed license for the on -sale consumption of beer, wine and distilled spirits at this location will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity because conditions have been placed on the alcoholic beverage control license that will mitigate any potential negative or adverse impacts created by the use. In addition, the sale of alcoholic beverages will occur within the internal open spaces of The Marke and is incidental to the primary residential use. • The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but will instead benefit the economic development of the property. The allowance of an ABC license within The Marke will allow it to provide a unique amenity that is not normally found at apartment projects but are common at a full service hotel or resort where food and alcohol sales are provided as an amenity. Further, the ABC license will add another unique amenity to the development that will assist The Marke in attracting residents to the newly constructed apartment complex. • As conditioned, the proposed project will be in compliance with all applicable regulations and conditions imposed on an establishment selling beer, wine and distilled spirits pursuant to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code: The Marke has the kitchen equipment necessary to obtain a restaurant related alcoholic beverage control license. Additionally, the facility will utilize only 0.4 percent of the gross floor area for the display and storage of alcoholic beverages, which is below the maximum threshold established by the SAMC. • The proposed use will not adversely affect the City's General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City's needs for goods and services. The proposed ABC license, which will be an ancillary use at The Marke, will provide an additional service to the residents and their guests. Further, ancillary uses such as the on- premise sale of alcoholic beverages are permitted within the District Center (DC) land use designation. The proposed project is not located in a specific plan area in the City. Further, Policy 2.9 of the Land 31A-6 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -10 June 9, 2014 Page 5 Use Element supports developments that create a business environment that is safe and attractive. The sale of alcoholic beverages will be located within the commercial kitchen that is located on the recreation deck, with the consumption of alcohol to occur on the recreation deck as well as the north and south courtyards of the project, which are physically separated from the public right -of- way, This will ensure that any impacts associated with the sale of alcoholic beverages will occur within the physical boundaries of the project. Conditions of approval will ensure that the sale of alcoholic beverages will not result in crime or other unsafe conditions. Police Department Analysis The Police Department reviews conditional use permit applications for the sale of alcoholic beverages because there is a strong correlation between the availability of alcohol and crime. Studies have shown that alcohol is a contributing factor in crimes, such as drunk driving, fatal traffic collisions, homicide, assaults, rape, domestic violence, drunk in public and other nuisance type of offenses. The Police Department considered two factors when reviewing this type of application: crime rate and sensitive land uses. it has been determined that 100 East MacArthur is located in an area that has an average number of reported crimes when compared against all crime reporting districts and is considered average in police- related incidents based on standards established under Business and Professions Code Section 23958.4. The site is located in Reporting District No. 191, which ranks 83rd out of 102 reporting districts in the number of police related calls for service. This reporting district is 60 percent below the 20 percent threshold established by the State for high crime. The Police Department has evaluated the applicant's request and believes that the proposed ABC license will not adversely affect the surrounding community. Conditions of approval are included as required by the SAMC that are intended to address any concerns related to the ABC License. Public Notification The project site is not located within the boundaries of any Neighborhood Association. However, the President of the adjacent Sandpointe Neighborhood Association and the property manager for the MacArthur Place South association were contacted by staff to discuss the proposed project. Neither the association president nor MacArthur Place South property manager raised any issues during the telephone discussions. 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 printing of this report, no areas of concern were raised, nor had any correspondence, either written or electronic, been received from any members of the public. 31A-7 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -10 June g, 2014 Page 6 CEQA Compliance In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act the recommended action is exempt for further review per Section 15301, The Class 1 exemption allows the operating, permitting and licensing of existing private structures with negligible or no expansion of the existing use. The proposed application is to approve an alcoholic beverage control license and allow the sale of beer and wine within an existing commercial building. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2014 -44 will be filed for this project. Goncluslon Based on the analysis provided within this report, staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -10 as conditioned.
