welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.
Facts in Support of AUP Finding No. 3
The restaurant will be located in an existing building. The parcel will have two
parking spaces at the rear that will also serve as a loading area directly
accessible from the rear alley.
2. The surrounding land uses include: commercial retail, commercial service,
offices, residential units and restaurants. The proposed restaurant use which will
serve alcohol will be compatible with the surrounding uses.
3. The existing restaurants in the surrounding area with alcohol licenses have not
been a source of crime or security problems.
AUP Finding No. 4
Potential impacts that could be generated by the proposed use, such as noise,
smoke, dust, fumes, vibration, odors, traffic, and hazards have been recognized
and compensated for.
Facts in Support of AUP Finding No. 4
The sale of alcohol will not create any new impacts that would not be normally
associated with a restaurant. The proposed hours of operation and alcohol sales
and the location of the proposed restaurant within a commercial district in the
Downtown Specific Plan (DSP) Zone and separated from adjacent residential
uses by a 20 -foot wide alley will help to minimize impacts on surrounding uses.
The restaurant's hours of operation will be limited to 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m.
Mondays through Thursdays, 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. Fridays and Saturdays,
and 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. on Sundays. Therefore, there will be no impacts on
residential uses in the City. In addition to complying with the requirements of the
City of El Segundo and the State of California Department of Alcohol Beverage
Control the restaurant is subject to County Health Department regulations that
address and monitor impacts of fumes and odors.
