PLANNING COMMISSION CITY OF PLEASANTON ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA RESOLUTION NO. PC-97-46 RESOLUTION APPROVING THE APPLICATION OF TERRY AND CAROLYN YEE/THE VINEYARDS, AS FILED UNDER CASE UP-97-24 WHEREAS, Terry and Carolyn Yee/The Vineyards, has applied for a conditional use permit to serve alcoholic beverages after 10:00 p.m. at the Vineyards Restaurant located at 30 West Neal Street, Suite 110; and WHEREAS, zoning for the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development) - C-O (Commercial-Office) District; and WHEREAS, at their duly noticed public hearing of May 28, 1997, the Planning Commission considered all public testimony, relevant exhibits, and recommendations of the City staff concerning this application; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission made the following findings: A. The proposed location of the conditional use is in accordance with the objectives of the zoning ordinance and the purpose of the district in which the site is located. The PUD zoning district in which this restaurant/wine bar is proposed refers to the Municipal Code for its permitted and conditionally permitted uses. The PUD hence allows bars as a conditional use. The purpose of this PUD is to allow a combination of commercial and office type uses. Restaurants, and restaurants which serve alcohol after 10:00 PM (bars), are considered a compatible use within the commercial district and Downtown area of the City. The location of the proposed restaurant/wine bar is in accordance with the objectives of the commercial districts ofthe Municipal Code to provide areas for commercial establishments to concentrate for the convenience ofthe public. The C-C district also encourages more intensive development in the Downtown area. The restaurant/wine bar would be located in an area easily accessible to the public and in an area with many retail stores and other restaurants. However, the restaurant is located a sufficient distance from the nearest residential area so that noise, parking, or other land use conflicts would not spill over to that neighborhood. The use permit for the restaurant/wine bar is in accordance with the objectives of the zoning district. B. The proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity.
