The proposed project complies with Costa Mesa Municipal Code (CMMC) Section 13-29(g)(2) ("Findings") as follows: Finding: "The proposed development or use is substantially compatible with developments in the same general area and would not be materially detrimental to other properties within the area". Facts in Support of Finding: The subject site is located within a commercial zone (Cl — Local Business District) where commercial development is specifically allowed. Pursuant to the CMMC, cannabis retail storefronts are conditionally permitted uses in the City's commercial zones and are subject to extensive regulation (as specifically described in the August 14t" Planning Commission staff report). These regulations are adopted to prevent land use inconsistencies with adjacent properties. Additionally, the proposed cannabis retail storefront use is not located within 1,000 feet of a K-12 school, playground, licensed child daycare, or homeless shelter, or within 600 feet of a youth center. All retail sales would take place underroof, no outdoor storage or sales are proposed nor would be allowed, and operations would be conditioned to be compliant with applicable local and State laws as well as to minimize potential impacts. Staff does not anticipate that the proposed retail cannabis use would be materially detrimental to the adjacent uses that include a convenience store, multi -tenant commercial center with restaurants, offices, services, and a liquor store, car dealership, hotel, and multiple -family housing. To ensure neighborhood compatibility, proposed project conditions and requirements have been included such as posting parking lot signs to remind customers to keep noise levels to a minimum, shielding security lighting down/away from neighboring properties, and limiting business hours from 9 AM to 10 PM. Therefore, the retail cannabis use would be compatible with other properties within the area, and in compliance with local and State requirements. Finding: "Granting the conditional use permit will not be materially detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of the public or otherwise injurious to property or improvements within the immediate neighborhood". Facts in Support of Finding: The proposed cannabis retail storefront use with delivery would follow safety measures detailed in a professionally -prepared security plan. The security plan was evaluated for compliance by the City's cannabis consultant, HdL. Measures designed to maintain safety at the site include, but are not limited to, at least one security guard would be onsite at all times and security devices shall be installed before operation. Examples of security devices include window and door alarms, motion -detectors, limited access areas, and a monitored video surveillance system covering all exterior entrances, exits, and all interior limited access spaces. In addition, the business Resolution No. 2023-49 Page 3 of 16 employees, including delivery drivers and part-time staff, must pass a live scan background check and obtain an identification badge from the City. The conditions of approval include, but are not limited to, the aforementioned security measures to ensure that the use would not be materially detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of the public or be otherwise injurious to property or improvements within the immediate neighborhood. Finding: "Granting the conditional use permit will not allow a use, density or intensity which is not in accordance with the general plan designation and any applicable specific plan for the property". Facts in Support of Finding: The proposed retail use is located within an existing commercial building on a property that has a General Plan land use classification of "General Commercial." No additional square footage is proposed; therefore, approving the CUP would not increase site intensity. As stated in the General Plan Land Use Element, the City's commercial designations "accommodate a full range of commercial activity present and desired in Costa Mesa." The use is consistent with General Plan policies related to providing a mixture of commercial goods, services, and employment opportunities; expanding the City's tax base; and promoting the incubation of unique and specialized businesses. B. The project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, for the permitting and/or minor alteration of Existing Facilities, involving negligible or no expansion of the existing or prior use. This project site contains an existing commercial building that has been used continuously for commercial activities. The application does not propose an increase in commercial floor area or otherwise expand the prior commercial use. The project is consistent with the applicable General Plan land use designation and policies as well as with the applicable zoning designation and regulations. Furthermore, none of the exceptions that bar the application of a categorical exemption pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 applies. Specifically, the project would not result in a cumulative impact; would not have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances; would not result in damage to scenic resources; is not located on a hazardous site or location; and would not impact any historic resources. C. The project is subject to a traffic impact fee, pursuant to Chapter XI I, Article 3 Transportation System Management, of Title 13 of the Costa Mesa Municipal Code.
