NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF NATIONAL CITY, CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE, DECLARE, DETERMINE, AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: Section 1: That the evidence presented to the City Council at the public hearing held on October 17, 2023, support the following findings: 1. The proposed use is allowable within the applicable zoning district pursuant to a Conditional Use Permit and complies with all other applicable provisions of the Land Use Code because alcohol sales and live entertainment are allowable within the MXD-2 zone, pursuant to a CUP, and the proposed use meets the required guidelines in the Land Use Code for alcohol sales, as discussed in the staff report. It is incidental to the proposed entertainment center and eating place use in a commercial area. 2. The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan, because alcohol sales and live entertainment are permitted, subject to a CUP, by the Land Use Code, which is consistent with the General Plan. In addition, an entertainment center and eating place with alcohol sales is consistent with the MXD-2 land use designation contained in the Land Use Code and Community Character element of the General Plan. 3. The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the proposed activity would be compatible with the existing and future land uses in the vicinity, because no expansion of the building is proposed. The proposal involves an existing commercial space, which was previously analyzed for traffic impacts when it was constructed. The proposed use would be incidental to the primary use of an entertainment center and eating place. 4. The site is physically suitable for the type, density, and intensity of use being proposed, including access, utilities, and the absence of physical constraints, because the proposed uses would be incidental to the primary use of an entertainment center with food sales. The building is existing and alterations to the interior and exterior of the proposed suite will have to be built in compliance with all applicable building and fire codes. 5. Granting the permit would not constitute a nuisance or be injurious or detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare, or materially injurious to persons, property, or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located, because the proposed use will be subject to conditions that limit the sale of alcohol as well as the hours that it will be available. Alcohol will only be available with the sale of food. in addition, all staff members serving alcohol are required to receive RBSS training. Live entertainment will be confined to private party rooms and will have no possibility of creating excessive noise or other concerns ordinarily associated with other types of live entertainment. 6. The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has been determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Class 1, Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) for which a Notice of Exemption will be filed subsequent to approval of this Conditional Use Permit. The reason for the exemption is that the use is proposed within an existing shopping center with only minor alterations to the exterior and interior of the building permitted by an approved building permit, and the use is similar to other commercial uses in the area, which are permitted in the MXD-2 zone. 7. The proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience or necessity, because alcohol sale will contribute to the viability of the new entertainment center, a permitted use in the MXD-2 zone. 8. Based on findings I through 7 above, public convenience and necessity will be served by a proposed use of the property for the on -site sales of alcoholic beverages in accordance with applicable law and the recommended conditions. The use, as proposed and conditioned, will operate in harmony with surrounding uses, will not cause a nuisance, and will benefit the community looking for entertainment and dining.
