REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION
SUBJECT
Title
Twelve-month Review of a Use Permit for the one-site sale and consumption of beer and wine for a corporate caf? (West Commons Caf?) located at 2515 Augustine Drive
Report
BACKGROUND
On October 25, 2017, the Planning Commission approved a Use Permit (PLN2017-12739) to allow the on-site sale and consumption of alcohol, Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) License Type 41, for a corporate caf? (West Commons Caf?). As a condition of approval (P1) a twelve-month review of the Use Permit is required following the applicant obtaining an active ABC License. An ABC License Type 41 was issued to the applicant on December 4, 2017.
West Commons Caf? is located within a multi-tenant mixed use development commonly referred to as Santa Clara Square. The development is at the north side of Augustine Drive and directly adjacent to Highway 101.
DISCUSSION
This twelve-month review is required by the Use Permit's conditions of approval (attached). The current Use Permit allows the sale of beer and wine with food service Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.
Since the issuance of the ABC license on December 4, 2017, there were no calls for service received by the City's Police Department related to the subject use. No zoning code violations are pending related to the subject use. All conditions of approval have been satisfied.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Use Permit review does not constitute a "project" within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(a) as it has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to sending the response other than administrative staff time and expense, typically covered by processing fees paid by the applicant.
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the City Attorney's Office.
