PROPOSAL
.
The applicant proposes to combine the existing restaurant and
existing cocktail lounge in order to expand the restaurant use.
The expansion would be accomplised by constructing two doorways
which would conbine the two facilities. The applicants have
C .U . P. 7 S - 7
2
.
indicated that the seating capacity will remain the same as
presently exists in the two facilities (approximately SO to
100 patrons).
MISCELLANEOUS 'INFORMATION
Parking:
Requi red:
Existing:
50 spaces
S spaces
Ingress and egress to the parking spaces is from the alley.
Landscaping: None
Trash Enclosure and Loading Space: None
Mechanical Equipment: Roof-moanted equipment is not screened and
can be seen from the rear of the easterly adjoining properties.
BUSINESS INFORMATION
.
Proposed Hours of Operation: 11:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily.
Employees: The applicant has stated that three employees would
be necessary to operate the proposed facility. Presently, both
operations require a total of five employees, according to
business license records.
ANAlYSIS
A restaurant is a permitted use in a C-l zone with an approved
conditional use permit.
During recent public hearings regarding a proposed restaurant at
,14 East Huntington Drive, public testimony indicated that the
existing cocktail lounge at 16 East Huntington Drive (Clown Town)
has created parking problems and has caused "closing hour"
disturbances for the residents south of the subject properties.
Denial of,this conditional use permit may result in the applicants'
continued operation of the existing cocktai'l lounge and restaurant
as separate facilities, thus prolonging the proble~ associated with
the existing uses.
The proposed hours of operation could mitigate the late night
closing hour disturbances associated with the existing cocktail
use.
.
Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental
Quality Act, the Planning Department has prepared an initial
study for the proposed project. Said initial study did not dis-
C.U.P. 78-7
3
.
close any substantial or potentially substantial adverse change
in any of the physical conditions within the area affected by
the project including land, air, water, minerals, flora, fauna,
ambient noise, and objects of historical or aesthetic signifi-
cance. Therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared for
this project.
Before the Planning Commission takes action on this project, the
Commission should "move to approve and file the Negative Declara-
tion and find that the project will not have a significant effect
on the environment."
RE COMMENDATION
It is Planning staff's oplnlon that denial of the conditional
use permit would force the continuation of the existing facilities
and their associated problems. .Therefore, the Planning Depart-
ment recommends approval of C.U.P. 78-7, subjectto the follow-
ing conditions:
~
1. That landscape plans for all unused portions of the parking
area be submitted to and approved by the Planning Department.
2. That all employers and employees be encouraged to park in the
public parking district area.
3. That a trash enclosure be provided in a location approved by
the Planning Department.
4. That the hours of operation be restricted to 11:30 a.m. through
10:00 p.m. daily.
5. That no loading activities take place during operating hours.
6. That a modification be granted for 5 parking spaces in lieu
of 50 required.
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The Redevelopment Agency staff has reviewed the proposed project
and suggested the following conditions:
1. That plans for improvement of the exterior design be sub-
. mitted to and approved by the Planning Department.
2. That payment be made into an "in-lieu" parking fund in an
amount determined by the Director of Planning.
.
If the aforementioned recommendations are determined to be
appropriate, the Planning Commission should include these
recommendations as conditions of approval for this conditional
use permit.
C.U.P. 78-7
4
~
In addition, if said conditions are imposed, the Planning
Department recommends that a design theme for the area be
recommended for adoption by the City Council and Arcadia
Redevelopment Ag~ncy in order ~o provide City staff with at
least some broad guidelines in the review of plans.
If the concept of Condition 2 of the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency
staff is determined to be appropriate, the Planning Department
recommends that Condition 6 be revised to read as follows:
6. That a modification be granted for 5 parking spaces in lieu
of 50 required, providing that a parking fund "in-lieu"
payment be made to the City in the amount of $13,754.28.
This fee is approximately one fourth of the actual cost of the
land area necessary to provide for the parking space deficiency.
This amount having been determined by the following:
Code required parking
50 spaces
~
Less the number of on-site spaces
which could be provided in
compliance with City code
Resultant parking space deficiency
- 5 spaces
45 spaces
The formula used then being: deficiency x number of square
feet required per space x assessed land value per square foot =
in-lieu fee. (45 x 350)$0.873 = $13,754.28.
