® DTTF Recommendation:
— Review policies of Laguna Reach and Pasadena and
consider amending DTSP to regulate mix of uses
Laguna Beach
• Most uses require a CUP within the Downtown Specific Plan
• Specific findings required to demonstrate that issuance of CUP will not
contribute to an incremental effect of similar uses that would be
detrimental to City
• Dessert/ice cream stores: special findings require that not more than 10
establishments be located within Downtown Specific Plan
• Retail clothing stores: special finding requires that the business is not
primarily engaged in retail sale of bathing suits or t-shirts
• Formula-based business (national chains): special findings require that
business will enhance destination quality of the Downtown Specific Plan
and not exhibit local/regional saturation
