I . RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission APPROVE the Negative Declaration filed by the Land Use Planning Manager and ADOPT Resolution No. 2077, APPROVING CUP-225, based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND The applicant is requesting that the City allow the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages at a proposed chinese restaurant in West Bluff Plaza. This Plaza is located in a C-1- Q zone, which allows on-premise sale of liquor within a bona fide public eating place upon the granting of a conditional use permit. The proposed restaurant would be located in an existing building, 1920 feet in area. This conditional use permit addresses solely the sale and consumption of alcohol in the restaurant. III. ANALYSIS Planning Issues 1) Can the required findings, for approval of a Conditional Use Permit, be made? Specifically: a) That the requested use is necessary or desirable for the development of the community, is essentially in harmony with the various elements ·and objectives of the general plan, and is not detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the zone in which the proposed use is to be located; b) That the site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accomodate the use; c) That all of the yards, setbacks, walls, fences, landscaping, and other features necessary to adjust the requested use to existing or permitted future uses in the neighborhood will be provided and maintained; d) That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all traffic generated by the proposed use. Discussion Staff believes that the proposed use is desirable for the development of the community and is not detrimental to surrounding uses. The required parking distribution for the Plaza is as follows: Professional Offices -11,120 sq. ft. - Retail Sales -29,640 sq. ft. - Banks -9500 sq. ft. - Existing Restaurant -5600 sq. ft. - SZECHUAN GARDENS -1920 sq. ft. - Total - Minus 15% Reduction(S.D.P. 77-1) - TOTAL REQUIRED SPACES - EXISTING ON-SITE SPACES - 28 spaces 148 spaces 24 spaces 56 spaces 20 spaces 276 spaces 41 spaces 235 spaces 244 spaces This analysis results in nine spaces over the minimum allowed by the zoning ordinance As such, staff believes that this request will not adversely impact the on-site parking situation. Through the Site Development Plan review process, all n~cessary buffers, landscaping and setbacks were incorporated into the shopping center design. Staff does not believe that any additional features would be necessary to adjust the requested use to existing or permitted future uses in the neighborhood. An analysis of potential traffic impacts of the shopping center was performed at the time of original approval. It was revealed that the street system serving the shopping center would be adequate to handle the traffic generated. Staff believes that the requested use will not generate a significant increase in traffic and, therefore, that the street system would not be impacted. Overall, staff believes that the requested use would be consistent with a restaurant use and surrounding uses and not have a detrimental impact on the street system or surrounding properties. v. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Land Use Planning Manager has determined that this project will not have a significant impact upon the environment and, therefore, has issued a Negative Declaration on January 11, 1983. -2- ATTACHMENTS 1) Planning Commission No. 2077 2) Location Map 3) Background Data Sheet 4) Disclosure Form 5) Environmental Documents 6) Exhibits A, B, and C, dated January 3, 1983 PJK:bw 2/1/83 -3- I 11 DOVE LN 0 □ ALGA RD CASE .NO..
