control for the sale of alcohol. Mr. Fauland stated that he was going to approve the request with the
suggested conditions of approval as submitted by staff in the staff report.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 98-75 WAS APPROVED BY THE ZONING •
ADMINISTRATOR WITH THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS OF
APPROVAL. HE STATED THAT THE ACTION TAKEN BY THE ZONING
ADMINISTRATOR CAN BE APPEALED TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION WITHIN
TEN (10) CALENDAR DAYS.
FINDINGS FOR PROJECTS EXEMPT FROM CEOA:
The Zoning Administrator finds that the project will not have any significant effect on the environment
and is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to
section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines, because no construction nor any environmental impact will
occur.
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 98-75:
Conditional Use Permit No. 98-75 for the establishment, maintenance and operation of beer and
wine sales will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the
vicinity or detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood. The
existing restaurant already has a client base which has requested beer and wine service. The added
alcohol service at the restaurant will not have an impact on the neighborhood.
2. The conditional use permit will be compatible with surrounding uses because the restaurant with •
proposed alcohol sales is located within an existing commercial area and is surrounded by existing
retail uses, except for the residential neighborhood to the east. It is buffered from the residential
areas by a solid masonry wall.
3. The proposed beer and wine sales will comply with the provisions of the base district and other
applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance
and any specific condition required for the proposed use in the district in which it would be
located. The restaurant use complies with the CG (General Commercial) zoning on the property.
4. The granting of the conditional use permit will not adversely affect the General Plan. It is
consistent with the Land Use Element designation of CN (Neighborhood Commercial) on the
subject property. In addition, it is consistent with the following goals and policies of the General
Plan:
a. Provide for the continuation of existing and the development of a diversity of retail and service
commercial uses that are oriented to the needs of local residents, serve the surrounding region,
serve visitors to the City, and capitalize on Huntington Beach's recreational resources. (LU
10.1)
b. Encourage the expansion of the range of goods and services provided in Huntington Beach to
accommodate the needs of all residents in Huntington Beach and the market area. (ED 2.4.3)
