RESOLUTION 1512
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNlNG COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, DENYING CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT NO. CUP 94-005 FOR A GAME MACHINE ARCADE
WITH 20 GAME MACHINES IN A 900 SQUARE FOOT RETAIL
SPACE AT 16 EAST DUARTE ROAD.
WHEREAS, on April 5, 1994, a Conditional Use Permit application was
filed by Michael Girgis for a game machine arcade with 20 game machines in
a 900 square foot retail space, Planning Division Case No. CUP 94-005, at
property commonly known as 16 E. Duarte Road, more particularly described
as follows:
Lots 2 through 7 of Tract No. 13252 in the City of Arcadia, County of
Los Angeles, State of California, as per Map recorded in Book 345,
Pages 6, 7 and 8 of Maps, in the Office of said County Recorder.
WHEREAS, public hearings were held on May 10, 1994, and May 24,1994
at which times all interested persons were given full opportunity to be heard
and to present evidence;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ARCADIA HEREBY RESOL YES AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That the factual data submitted by the Planning Division
in the attached reports are true and correct.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with the prerequisite conditions set
forth in Arcadia Municipal Code Section 9275.1.2. this Commission finds that:
A. The granting of this Conditional Use Permit would be detrimental
to the public health or welfare or injurious to the property or improvements
in such zone or vicinity because there is not an adequate buffer between the
proposed use and the adjoining residential properties to the south, and in
addition, visibility from the proposed arcade and the street into the parking
lot is poor, making it difficult for the police and the arcade operator to
adequately monitor activity within the parking lot where the bicycle racks are
proposed to be located.
.
.
.
B. The site for the proposed use is inadequate in size and shape to
accommodate said use because there is inadequate screening and walls to
adjust said use with the land and uses in the neighborhood. The properties to
the south that share the alley for access are developed with residential uses;
the parking lot for the proposed use is adjacent to the alley and there is no
fence or wall to buffer the proposed use and the parking area from the
adjacent residential properties.
SECTION 3. That for the foregoing reasons this Commission denies
the Conditional Use Permit application for a game machine arcade with 20
game machines in a 900 square foot retail space at 16 E. Duarte Road.
SECTION 4. That the decision and findings stated in this Resolution
reflect the Commission's action of May 24, 1994 and the following vote:
A YES: Commissioners Daggett, Hedlund, Huang, Kovacic and Clark
NOES: None
ABSENT: None
SECTION 5. The Secretary shall certify to the adoption of this
Resolution and shall cause a copy to be forwarded to the City Council of the
City of Arcadia.
I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution was adopted at a
regular meeting of the Planning Commission held on the 14th day of June,
1994 by the following vote:
A YES: Commissioners Daggett, Hedlund, Huang, Kovacic and Clark
NOES: None

SUBJECT: CONDmONAL USE PERMIT NO. CUP 94-005
GAME MACHINE ARCADE AT 16 E. DUARTE RD.
SUMMARY
This Conditional Use Permit application 'was submitted by Michael Girgis to install
20 amusement game machines at 16 E. Duarte Road. The Planning Division is
recommending approval of Conditional Use Permit No. CUP 94-005 subject to the
conditions in this report.
.
NOTE: This application was originally filed, and publicly noticed for 18 E. Duarte
Road. The applicant later learned that the discussions with the property
owner actually involved 16 E. Duarte Road, the adjacent space. The size of
the units is the same and their layouts are very similar, and 16 E. Duarte
Road still exceeds the minimum 500 foot distance from a school property
boundary. It has been determined that this minor change in location has
had no material affect upon this application and its analysis.

PROPOSAL AND ANALYSIS
The proposal is to install 20 amusement game machines, a change machine, a
small office, and a unisex handicap bathroom. The proposed operating hours are
3;00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 12:00 noon to 10;00 p.m. on
Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays and during academic breaks. In addition, the

The installation of 8 or more game machines constitutes a "Game Machine
Arcade" which requires a Conditional Use Permit (Sees. 9275.1.48. &: 9275.6. et seq.)
In addition, amusement game machines are subject to business licensing and
operation regulations under Article VI of the Municipal Code. A copy of these
regulations is attached.
Backifound and Land Uses
The property is developed. with a 14,400 sq.' ft. strip commercial building and a
freestanding 900 sq. ft. donut shop with 400 sq. it of outdoor seating for total area of
1,300 sq. ft. This eating establishment was approved by CUP 76-3.

There are a total of 93 on-site parking spaces. The donut shop has 26 parking spaces
with one designated for handicap use allocated to it by CUP 7&;3. This use complies
with the required number of parking spaces. Th~ remaining 67 spaces are for the
strip commercial building. Based on retail uses, there is a 5 space deficiency.
With the exception of the parking spaces for the donut shop, the parking spaces on
this site are substandard in length (18 feet in lieu of 20 feet) and do not have wheel
stops. All of the spaces are improperly striped, and several are labeled "NO
PARKING" for what appears to be loading purposes. No parking modifications
have been granted for any of the existing uses.
Four handicap parking spaces are required at this site. ' The one existing handicap
space is not properly striped or labeled. Compliance with the handicap parking
regulations will probably result in a net loss of parking spaces, but is a requirement
that should not be modified or disregarded.
Approximately 700 sq. ft. of the proposed game machine arcade will be used for the
game machines. One parking space is required for each 35 square feet of that area.
This results in a requirement of 20 parking spaces in lieu of 5 spaces for a retail use,
.
CUP 94-005
May 10, 1994
Page 3
.
.
.
or a deficiency of 15 spaces. When combined with the existing shortage, there
would be an overall parking deficiency of 20 spaces for this retail property. A
review of the parking situation indicates that no parking problem exists at this site.
Bicycle Racks
Section 9275.6.3. of the Special Regulations for Game Machine Arcades requires
that adequate off-street space be provided for bicycles. Because the proposal is for a
use that will primarily appeal to younger persons there will be a need for bicycle
racks.
The applicant has indicated that an area at the rear of the proposed arcade will be
made available to accommodate bicycle parking. However, a detailed plan for the
installation of bicycle racks will be necessary to assure that the bicycle parking will
be provided in an appropriate manner.
Security
In addition to complying with the requirement that there be supervisory personnel
over the age of 21 present at all times, the applicant is proposing to install lighting
and security cameras to monitor the interior and exterior of the arcade, especially
the rear parkiilg area.
The Police Department has in the past reviewed other game machine installations
in this area of the San Gabriel Valley, and has found that the presence of
uniformed professional security personnel, in addition to adult supervision,
significantly improves the security aspects of businesses with game machines.
Furthermore, the incidence of truancy can be reduced if the hours of operation are
limited to after school hours (as proposed by the applicant>.
Of particular concern is the parking lot at the rear of the commercial buildings
which is adjacent to residences. The parking lot is not secured, and the Police
Department has responded to several complaints of loitering, vandalism, and
other illegal activities. The occupants of the adjacent residences have been
routinely impacted by these disturbances.
Landsc"Pinlf
The only landscaping on the site is a 450% sq. ft. planter behind the donut shop
which was approved by CUP 76-3. It is poorly maintained with minimal planting.
There is no other landscaping on the site. Based on Code requirements,
approximately 1,800 sq. ft. (5%) of the parking area shall be landscaped and one tree
is required for each 5 parking spaces (19 trees).
CUP 94-005
May 10, 1994
Page 4
.
.
Ie
The addition of approximately 1,350 sq. ft. of landscaping and 18 trees in the rear
parking lot to meet the requirements would be burdensome since this application
does not include any additional building space or significant alterations to the site.
However, the landscaping behind the donut shop should be improved regardless
of the fact that it is not in the vicinity of the proposed game machine arcade.
Trash Enclosures
There are 3 commercial trash bins on the site and they appear to be fully utilized.
None are in enclosures as required by Code. The adding of masonry enclosures as
required by Code would be burdensome since this application does not include any
additional building space or significant alterations to the site.
Environmental Review
Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, the
Planning Division 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 considering 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.
RECOMMENDA nON
The Planning Division recommends approval of Conditional Use Permit No. CUP
94-005 subject to the following conditions:
1. The hours of operation shall be from 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday through

I understand that you are reviewing a plan for a 20 game Video Arcade near the
corner of Santa Anita and Duarte Road (by Star Liquor). There Is already an
Arcade at the corner of 2nd and Duarte. Do we need 2 Arcades In less than two
blocks. The City of Arcadia does not need another Arcade especially one this
close to one another. We already have a problem with traffic from the Arco
Station and from what I understand noise, trash, graffiti, vandalism and
danger in entering and exiting the garages that face the alley. '
But as a concerned Citizen of Arcadia, I absolutely do not want two Video
Arcades In my neighborhood especially that close together.
Thank you In for your consideration I

RE: 20 Video Arcade
To Whom It May Concern:
We are writing to let you know how opposed we are as residents
of the City of Arcadia, to putting another Video Arcade store
on Duarte Road so close to the one located at 2nd Avenue and
Duarte Road. With First Avenue and Dana Junior High Schools,
not to mention the Arcadia High School with in one block.
We do not think this wi 11 enhance the city at all.

A TTENTJON:
It has come to my attention that you wi/I be reviewing a plan for a 20 game
video arcade near the comer of Santa Anita Avenue and Dum1e Road on
May 10, 1994.
I reside approximately one blcck South of this lccation and am very much
against your potential approvaI of this Arcade which I believe will only
extend the traffic, loitering and potentin! criminal problems not only in front
of the proposed location but also the parking area and aIJey behind iJ..
Thank you for your consideration.

To Whom it May Concern:
I would like to voice my displeasure at the possibility of an arcade going into the building
located at 18 East Duane Road. I am a resident of the quiet lime street JUSt south of this
particular section of Duane Road and already have a big problem with the traffic situation in
the alley where I park my car at night. The cars race up and down this stretch of alley day
and night without regard to the speed limit or to the fact that people lICh."ny use the garages
that open onto the alley. On numerous occasions I have bad ncar-coUisioD SituatiODS. An
arcade on the alley would exacerbate the already existing traffic problem with adolescent
carelessness and recldess teenage drivers not to mention the inc:reasecl bk:ycle traffic. As an
aside, speed bumps on each end of the alley and in the middle migbl belp alleviate the
danger.
In addition to the potentially worsened traffic situation, the inadequate Jiglni", behind tbe
Star Liquor area would malce an ideal hangout (or teenagers with nothing better to do. AD
arcade right next to a liquor store? Why not matches and dynamite?
An arcade already exists not two blocks from this new proposed site. That arcade is weU
supervised and the owners lake great care to keep their grounds clean and safe-inside and
out. While I understand that I may sound as if I am lumping all teens together (good and
bad alike) it is not any secret that where unsupervised teeDS congregate. wndalism and
graffiti follow. Increased graffiti means inc:reases in the City's cost for gIlI1ftti removal and
clean-up and ultimately inc:reased taxes. I know children need places to bani out; 1 just
don't wouu them in my backyard.
Please help us protect our families and keep our neighborhood safe. Do not approw: the plan
to move an arcade where no one wants it except for the owner. Thank you for your
consideration of this requeSt.

Attn: Arcadia Planning commission
I have recently heard that there Is a proposal to review a plan for a 20 game
Video Arcade near the corner of Santa Anita and Duarte Road.
I am a 17 year resident of Arcadia and I don't think It is necessary to have
two arcades within a block from each other, especially when this one Is
planned to be located next door to a liquor store!
Please take care that our wonderful city stays that way. I am seeing changes
that I never thought would take place. I had three sons go through the
Arcadia School~ and I often thought it would be great if they had someplace to
go to have safe fun, that didn't happen for my sons, but I don't consider a
vi deo arcade a good place for our eh 11 dren to be.
Thank you,

Dear people:
My husband. my twelve year-old son and
residents since 1987. and treasure the
peaceful atmosphere of this city. We are
protest a plan yOU are currently reviewing
near the corner of Santa Anita Blvd. and
Star liquor store.
I have been Arcadia
relatively quiet and
writing this letter to
to open a video arcade
Duarte Rd., near the
A business of this nature allows for an increase in vandalism and
graffiti around the area. and additional congestion at the corner
of the Arco station. which can barely manage its current traffic
flow. Creating this kind of situation does not seem to be
efficient planning.
Especially troubling is that the proximity of the proposed video
arcade to the liquor store is iikely to increase the chances of
people under 18 years old buying and consuming alcoholic
beverages. and possibly driving after doing so. We live facing
the alley on that block, and have seen an increasing incidence of
speeding teenager drivers. especially at night. During the day
time, an arcade would become an additional temptation for the
students of Arcadia High School, less than one block away, to
leave campus during school hours.
You have already allowed a video arcade to operate one-and-a-half
blocks from where yOU are considering opening a new one. AS
voters, we believe that businesses are an important part of the
community; however, your foremost commitment should be to
protect the safety and well-being of the city residents.
Finally, we believe that if you are determined to open a new
video arcade. yOU should try housing it next to the City Hall.
Sincerely,
Concerned Arcadia Residents

Something must be done about'
the Arco gas station at the comer
of Duarte Road and Santa Anita
Avenue in ArcadiA This'location
is constantly congested with cars
entering and exiting. It is a very
hazardous situation with many
near accidents.
The left-turn-lane traffic trom
Santa Anita onto Duarte has to
slow down. at times to a complete
stop, to avoid a line of cars going
into the station.
The right-turn-lane traftlc .
from Santa Anita onto Duarte is
often bloc!md by cars exiting the i,
gas station, so they have to sit i,,~.
through several signals. ,~
The owner of this gas station "'.~" "
should have to pay someone to
direct traftlc or change the
driveways. so cars can enter only
on Santa Anita Avenue and exit
only on Duarte Road. ;.~
