Development Review DRC2011-00456 for the construction of a 9,396 square-foot Lazy Dog
Restaurant and Conditional Use Permit DRC2011-00457 to allow the on-site consumption of beer,
wine, and distilled spirits through a Type 47 (Bona Fide Eating Place) ABC License.
e. The Conditional Use Permit which this resolution aims to modify (Related File:
DRC2011-004557)was reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission on October 12,2011.
The approval was to provide alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption at a proposed restaurant
with an overall floor area of 9,396 square feet, which includes 400 square foot bar area and an
outdoor dining area of 978 square feet.
f. The proposal governed by this resolution has two parts:
i. Existing: All sales of beer, wine, and distilled spirits are limited to on-site
consumption per Conditional Use Permit DRC2011-00457.
Proposed:Allow the sale of sealed beer and wine for off-site consumption in
conjunction with the restaurant's take-out orders. All alcohol sold for off-site
consumption will be held to the same legal standards as on-site sales
determined by the California Alcohol Beverage Control.
ii. Existing: Restaurant operating hours are between 11:00 am and 12:00 am
(midnight) per Conditional Use Permit DRC2011-00457.
Proposed: Extend the restaurant's weekend operating hours for a total
addition of 3 morning hours. Proposed Saturday hours are 10:00 am to 12:00
am (midnight). New Sunday hours are 9:00 am to 12:00 am (midnight).

through Friday.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-
referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2
above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows:
a. The proposed use is in accordance with the General Plan, the objectives of the
Development Code, and the purposes of the district in which the site is located. The project
support's the General Plan's goal of creating opportunities for residents and workers to have local
access to a full range of retail/entertainment needs in appropriate areas.
b. The proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be
detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or
improvements in the vicinity. The project is ancillary to the operations of the existing restaurant on-
site and is compatible with the existing uses within the shopping center surrounding the project site.
c. The proposed use complies with each of the applicable provisions of the
Development Code. The project is compatible, and ancillary to the existing restaurant use on-site.
Restaurant uses which serve beer and wine are permitted within the Industrial Park (IP) District,
Industrial Commercial Overlay. There are no modifications to the existing restaurant that would
require, for example, additional parking to be provided.
4. The Planning Department Staff has determined that the project is categorically exempt
from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA

Guidelines. The project qualifies under the Class 1 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines
Section 15301- Existing Facilities because the project involves a negligible expansion of the use
existing at the time the exemption was granted. The project does not include any modification of
existing structures,facilities, mechanical equipment or topographical features. Likewise,this request
does not include the addition of any new structures or mechanical equipment. The proposal only
modifies the services that are provided and the hours of operation for the restaurant. Therefore,
there is no substantial evidence that the project may have a significant effect on the environment.
The Planning Commission has reviewed the Planning Department's determination of exemption,
and based on its own independent judgment, concurs in the staff's determination of exemption.
5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above,
this Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth in the
Conditions of Approval, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
6. The Secretary to this Commission shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.
