2013-27 CUP, 1811 "L" Avenue
1 That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the
proposed use is an accessory use to an existing neighborhood market in an existing
commercial center and the sale of beer and wine is not expected to increase the
demand for parking on the property.
2. That the site has sufficient access to streets and highways that are adequate in
width and pavement type to carry the volume and type of traffic generated by the
proposed use, since East 18th Street is classified as a collector street in the
Circulation Element, and the sale of beer and wine for off -site consumption is not
expected to result in an appreciable increase in traffic.
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting
properties, since the proposed use is compatible with other similar businesses
located nearby and within a quarter -mile of the property; and since the proposed
use will be subject to conditions that limit the sale of alcohol and restrict the hours
that it will be available.
4. That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience
and welfare, since it will contribute to the continued viability of a neighborhood
market, an established and allowed use in the applicable mixed -use zone.
5. That public convenience and necessity may be served by a proposed use of the
property for the retail sales of alcoholic beverages pursuant to law.
RECOMMENDED FINDINGS FOR DENIAL
2013-27 CUP, 1811 "L" Avenue
1. That the proposed use is not deemed essential and desirable to the public
convenience and welfare, since issuance of another off -sale license would result in
an over -concentration of off -sale alcohol licenses in census tract 121.01 in which the
subject property is located.
2. The proposed use is not deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience
and welfare since beer and wine is currently offered at an outlet within a quarter -
mile of the subject property.
3. That public convenience and necessity may not be served by a proposed use of
the property for the retail sales of alcoholic beverages pursuant to law.
