B. PUBLIC HEARING ITEMS
B-1 APPEAL OF THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR'S ACTION REVOKING USE
PERMIT NO, 92-29:
APPLICANT/
APPELLANT: Juan Navarro
LOCATION: 19731 Beach Boulevard
Use Permit No. 92-29 was revoked by the Zoning Administrator on
December 23, 1992 following a public hearing for a six (6) month
review. The revocation required the applicant to cease operation of
the recycling business due to the incompatibility of the use with
the surrounding properties.
On January 4, 1993, the applicant appealed the action of the Zoning
Administrator with the opinion that the business is compatible with
the surrounding neighborhood, and that the present location is
adequate and convenient for the residents in the area. The
applicant further states that the recycling center helps as a means
of financial support for many residents in the area, and that the
business supports the applicants family of six.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Due to the concerns received by surrounding residents about the
operation of the recycling center, and the appellant's
non-compliance with conditions of approval, staff recommends that
the Planning Commission deny the appeal and sustain the Zoning
Administrator's action by revoking Use Permit No. 92-29 with
findings.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED.
Frank Puccilli, 2402 Florida #G, spoke in opposition to the request
stating that the recycling center was incompatible with the adjacent
apartment complex.
Kirk Kirkland, 2217 Florida, spoke in opposition to the request
stating that the recycling center was incompatible with the adjacent
apartment complex.
Haydee V. Tillotson, 16426 Ladona Circle, spoke in support of the
small business but in opposition to its location. She stated the
use was incompatible to the area.
Brenda Roberts, 615 Utica #3, spoke in opposition to the request
stating her concern with excessive loitering and trash in the area.

but felt the location was incompatible to the surrounding area.
They requested a 60-day extension of the use permit and directed
staff to work with the applicant in relocating to a more compatible
area.

MOTION PASSED
'Biddle, Richardson, Dettloff, Gorman,
FINDINGS FOR DENIAL - USE PERMIT NO. 92-29:
1. After the monitoring of the maintenance and operation of the
Recycling Center for six (6) months, it has been determined that
the use has been detrimental to:
a. The general welfare of persons residing or working in the
vicinity. The Recycling Center creates noise and odors for
the tenants residing and working in the vicinity.
Furthermore, there is no buffer from the residential property.
b. Property and improvements in the vicinity of such use. The
recycling bin is situated in close proximity to apartment
buildings and is incompatible with the adjacent residential
development.
The Planning Commission requested that the applicant have a 60-day
extension of time to relocate to an appropriate site, and directed
staff to assist the applicant in this relocation.
PC Minutes - 2/17/93 -3- (6161d)
B-2 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO, 92-50/CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION
(VARIANCE) NO. 92-49:
APPLICANT: D. Scott Hulber
LOCATION: 7368 Center Avenue
Conditional Use Permit No. 92-50 is a request to establish a coffee
house, Strange Brew Espresso Bar, with live entertainment at 7368
Center Avenue. Conditional Exception (Variance) No. 92-49 is a
request for a reduction of five (5) parking spaces in association
with the espresso bar. The use is proposed at the southeast corner
of Center Avenue and Gothard Street within the College Country
Center.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of both requests because the site is
substantially buffered from any residential properties and several
land related hardships exists on the property.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED.
Willian Nelson Gentry, Attorney for the applicant, stated he
supported the staff report and was there to answer any questions the
Commission may have.
THERE WERE NO OTHER PERSONS PRESENT TO SPEAK FOR OR AGAINST THE
REQUEST AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
A MOTION WAS MADE BY DETTLOFF, SECOND BY BOURGUIGNON, TO APPROVE
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 92-50 AND CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION
(VARIANCE) NO. 92-49 WITH FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL, BY
THE FOLLOWING VOTE:
AYES: Cook, Bourguignon, Biddle, Richardson, Dettloff, Gorman,
Inglee
NOES: None
ABSENT: None
ABSTAIN: None
MOTION PASSED
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION (VARIANCE) NO. 92-49:
1. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or
conditions applicable to the land, buildings or premises
involved that do not apply generally to other property or uses
in the district. The property was developed in phases and over
a time period when parking requirements changed. There is a
Southern Pacific Railroad easement on the east side of the
property which prohibits additional parking. The property is
L-shaped and is a corner parcel.
PC Minutes - 2/17/93 -4- (6161d)
1
2. The granting of a conditional exception for reduction of five
(5) parking spaces in conjunction with the restaurant with live
entertainment is necessary in order to preserve the enjoyment of
one or more substantial property rights. The property is zoned
and general planned for general commercial uses such as Strange
Brew Espresso Bar.
3. The granting of Conditional Exception (Variance) No. 92-49 for a
reduction of five (5) parking spaces in conjunction with a
restaurant with live entertainment will not be materially
detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, or
injurious to the conforming land, property, or improvements in
the neighborhood. Sufficient and adequate circulation currently
exists on the site and can be maintained with the
implementations of this project.
4. Conditional Exception (Variance) 92-49 for a reduction of five
(5) parking spaces is consistent with the goals and objectives
of the City's General Plan and Land Use Map designation of
general commercial which allows a restaurant with live
entertainment. Deviations from the parking requirements may
also be granted subject to approval of a conditional exception
(variance).
5. The granting of this conditional exception from Section
9602.2(R) of the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code will not defeat
the general purposes or intent of the code which is to provide
sufficient on -site parking for all uses. During the peak hours
of operation of the live entertainment in the evening, the
adjacent office uses will most likely be closed and the parking
demand will decrease.
6. The establishment, maintenance and operation of the proposed
reduction of five (5) parking spaces will not be detrimental to
the general welfare of persons residing or working in the
vicinity; and property and improvements in the vicinity of such
use or building. The surrounding uses are also general retail
commercial.
7. The applicant is willing and able to carry out the purposes for
which the conditional exception (variance)/conditional use
permit is sought and he will proceed to do so without
unnecessary delay.
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 92-50:
1. The proposed restaurant with live entertainment is in
conformance with the City of Huntington Beach General Land Use
designation of general commercial which permits live
entertainment in conjunction with a standard commercial use.
PC Minutes - 2/17/93
-5-
(6161d)
2. The location site layout, and design of the proposed restaurant
with live entertainment properly adapts the proposed structures
to streets, driveways, and other adjacent structures and uses in
a harmonious manner. The project is located in a primarily
commercial area and the proposed live entertainment will not
adversely impact other surrounding properties.
3. The combination and relationship of one proposed to another on a
site are properly integrated. The other businesses in the
center and in the vicinity are general retail commercial
restaurant uses and office uses which are compatible with the
proposed restaurant with live entertainment.
4. The access to and parking for the proposed restaurant with live
entertainment does not create an undue traffic problem.
Although there is a variance for five (5) parking spaces, there
is a mix of uses in the site that will not conflict with each
other.
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 92-50/
CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION (VARIANCE) NO. 92-49::
1. The site plan, floor plans, and elevations received and dated

restaurant, Rockin' Pasta, with live entertainment and alcoholic
beverage sales at 17041 Beach Boulevard. The site is located at
the southwest corner of Warner Avenue and Beach Boulevard within the
Guardian center commercial/office complex.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

been utilized as a restaurant with live entertainment and alcohol
and no complaints were received, the Police Department does not
object to the request, and no adverse impacts to adjacent properties
are anticipated.
The Commission asked staff what method or review could we use to

generally they are and ABC has requested a copy of the City's
conditions, in order to review them when they review the license .

was always the possibility that some remained in which case the
property owner would be held responsible. Staff also stated that
developer will be reimbursed, per the Development Agreement, for
items outside their scope.
The Commission requested a modification to change the status of
Parcel (4) 7.7 acres by 6/30/92 of item 2.2.1.(a) of the report to

-13-
(6161d)
The Commission discussed with Counsel- their legal basis for a
decision. Counsel informed the Commission that they could not base
their decision on the entitlement since it had already been approved
by the City Council. Counsel stated that the Commission must decide
if the applicant showed good intention to fulfill his obligation.
Counsel also stated that if they wished to deny the extension of
time they must make findings of fact that the applicant indeed did
not show good intention.
Commissioner's Cook, Biddle and Gorman stated their objection to the
project and their desire to renegotiate the entitlement.
Commissioner Inglee stated that if the Commission could not provide
clear evidence of bad faith by the applicant, a denial of this
extension of time would set a poor precedence to investors and
developers interested in working in the City.
A two (2) week continuance was discussed, in order to allow the new
Commissioners additional time to study their possible options and
legal basis for granting or denying an extension of time.
