Deitsch, CIty Attorney STAFF REPORT DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT March 28, 2000 TO: Arcadia City Planning Commission FROM: Donna Butler, Community Development Administrator By: Kenneth Phung, Assistant Planner SUBJECT: Conditional Use Permit No. CUP 00-001 for the retail sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption to be located within one hundred fifty (150) feet of residentially zoned property. SUMMARY . This Conditional Use Permit application was submitted by Henry Miller to permit the retail sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption in conjunction with an existing retail "99 Cent Only Store" at 140 E. Duarte Road. The Development Services Department is recommending approval of CUP 00-001 and adoption of Resolution 1604 granting the conditional use permit subject to the conditions in this staff report. GENE~L INFORMATION APPLICANT: Henry Miller ("99 Cent Only Store" representative) LOCATION: 140 E. Duarte Road REQUEST: A Conditional Use Permit for the retail sale of beer and wine for off- site consumption to be located within one hundred fifty (150) feet of residentially zoned property. SITE AREA: 88,800 sq.ft. (2;04 acres) FRONTAGES: 399.21 feet along E. Duarte Road and 100 feet along S. Second Avenue EXISTING LAND USE & ZONING: The site is improved with a 32,760 sq.ft. commercial shopping center with 105 on-site parking spaces. The property is zoned C-1 & D (Limited Commercial with a Design Overlay). . . . . SURROUNDING LAND USES & ZONING: North: Mixed commercial: zoned C-2 South: Single-family residential: zoned R-1 East: Bank: zoned C-1 West: Legal-nonconforming fast food: zoned R-1 GENERAl PLAN DESIGNATION: The site is designated as Commercial BACKGROUND Originally the "99 Cent Only Stores" business opened in Arcadia in 1984 at 645 W. Duarte Road. The business operation consisted of the retail sale of goods and products in conjunction with the incidental retail sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption. In June of 1998, the company relocated their business operation to 140 E. Duarte Road. The new location requires an approved Conditional Use Permit for the retail sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption, because the site is located within one hundred fifty of residentially zoned property, as shown on the attached land use and zoning map. PROPOSAL AND ANALYSIS The applicant is seeking approval for the retail sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption in conjunction with the existing 21,000 sq.ft. "99 Cent Only Store" at 140 E. Duarte Road. The sale of beer and wine will be incidental to the primary business operation, which consists ofthe retail sale of goods and products. Based upon the applicant's proposal and background information about the business operation, it is staff's opinion that the proposal would be an appropriate addition to the business operation with an approved Conditional Use Permit, provided that the retail sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption remains incidental to the primary retail business. Also, staff is not aware of any problems related to the sale of beer and wine at the previous "99 Cent Only Store" operation at 645 E. Duarte Road. The applicant has indicated that they would utilize approximately 1,000 sq.ft. of the retail sales area for the sale of beer and wine (6% of the retail salesarea:16,328 sq.ft.). In staff's opinion the retail sale Of beer and wine for off-site consumption will remain incidental to the retail sale of goods and products i.e., the retail sale of beer and wine should not exceed 6% of the retail sales floor area. The applicant shall be required to comply with all code requirements as determined necessary by the Building Official, Fire Marshall, Public Works Services Director and Development Services Director. CUP 00-001 March 28, 2000 Page 2 . . . CEQA Pursuant to the provIsions of the Califomia Environmental Quality Act, the Development Services Department has prepared an initial study for the proposed project. Said initial study did not disclose 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 significance. When consitfering the record as a whole, there is no evidence that the proposed project will have any potential for adverse effect on wildlife resources or the habitat upon which the wildlife depends. Therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared for this project. RECOMMENDATION The Development Services Department recommends approval of Conditional Use Permit No. CUP 00-001 subject to the following conditions: 1. The area dedicated for the sale of beer and wine shall not exceed 6% of retail sales area or 1,000 sq.ft. whichever is less. 2. All City code requirements regarding accessibility, fire protection, occupancy, and safety shall be complied with to the satisfaction of the Building Official and the Fire Marshall. 3. Approval of CUP 00-001 shall not take effect until the property owner and applicant have executed and filed the Acceptance Form available from the Development Services Department to indicate acceptance of the conditions of approval. 4. Noncompliance with the plans, provisions and conditions of CUP 00-001 shall be grounds for immediate suspension or revocation of any approvals for the retail sale of beer and wine for off-site consumptiom. FINDINGS AND MOTIONS Approval The Planning Commission should move to approve and file the Negative Declaration and adopt Resolution No. 1604: A Resolution of the Planning Commission of the City of Arcadia, Califomia, granting Conditional Use Permit No. 00-001 for the retail sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption at 140 E. Duarte Rd. CUP 00-001 March 28, 2000 Page 3 . .

[ ] I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. " -2- CEQA Checklist 3/00 . . . File No.: CUP 00-001 [ ] I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant .effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required. [ ] I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, but that at least one effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards and has been addressed by mitigation measures based on that earlier analysis as described on attached sheets, and if any remaining effect is a "Potentially Sigriificant Impact" or "Potentially Significant Unless Mitigated," an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it only needs to analyze the effects that have not yet been addressed. [ ] I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there WILL NOT be a significant effect in this case because all potentially significant effects have been analyzed adequately in an earlier Environmental Impact Report pursuant to applicable standards and have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR., including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project. e-~~ March 2, 2000 Date Kenneth K. Phung Print Nanle City of Arcadia For -3~ CEQA Checklist 3/00 . . . File No.: CUP 00-001 EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS: 1. A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by the information sources a lelw. agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact" answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects such as the one involved (e.g., the project is not within a fault rupture zone). A ''No Impact'~ answer should be explained where it is based on project-specific factors as well as general stanaards (e.g., the project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific screening analysis). 2. AIl answers must take account of the whole action involved, including off-site as well as on-site, cumulative as well as project-level, indirect as well as direct, and construction related as well as operational impacts. 3. "Potentially Significant Impact" is apjlropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significant. If there are one or more, "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made, an Environmental Impact Report is required. 4. ''Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from ''Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less Than Significant Impact." The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level (mitigation measures from Section 17 "Earlier Analyses" may be cross-referenced). 5. Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program Environmental Impact Report, or other CEQA process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or Negative Declaration {Section 15063(c)(3)(D)}. Earlier analyses are discussed in Section 17 at the end of the checklist. 6. Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist, references to information sources for potential impacts (e.g., general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a previously prepared or outside document should, where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is substantiated. -4- CEQA Checklist 3/00 . .
