any change of hours if no adverse impacts are anticipated.
C. That on March 3, 2017, the Community Development Department issued a
Certificate of Occupancy for tenant improvements in compliance with
Resolution No. 4319 at Voko Karaoke located at 14561 and 14571 Red Hill
Avenue.
D. That proper application has been submitted by Sung Hak Ko to extend the
hours of operation for a karaoke music studio at an existing large retail center
Iocated at 14561 and 14571 Red Hill Avenue.
E. That the Community Development Department deferred a decision on the
request to extend the hours of operation until 2:00 A.M. due to the short time
the business has been in operation, that a minimal record of no impacts had
been fully established, and the number of .nearby residents' attendance at
previous Planning Commission hearing.
F. That the site is zoned as Retail Commercial District (C-2) and has a General
Plan land-use designation of Community Commercial where a variety of
retail, office and service oriented business activities are permitted to serve
local, as well as broad market areas. In addition, the project has been
reviewed for consistency with the Air Quality Sub-element of the City of
Tustin.

is permitted in the Retail Commercial District (C-2) with the approval of a
Conditional Use Permit (CUP).
H. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held on said
application on June 13, 2017, by the Planning Commission.
I. That the establishment, maintenance, and operation of the proposed use
will not, under the circumstances of this case, be detrimental to the health,
safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare of the persons residing or
working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, nor be injurious or
detrimental to the property and improvements in the neighborhood of the
subject property, or to the general welfare, in that:
1. The proposed use, as conditioned, would not be detrimental to the
surrounding properties in that the use would occur entirely within the
building and would be conditioned to comply with the Tustin Noise
Ordinance and General Plan Noise Element.
2. That the Building Division has issued a Certificate of Occupancy and
the tenant improvements have been completed in compliance with
Conditions of Approval contained in Resolution No. 4319.
3. The proposed use, as conditioned, would not create a noise impact on
the surrounding neighborhood because the karaoke booths have been
made soundproof and Condition No. 2.1 of Resolution No. 4319
prohibits loitering outside the business.
4. That the Tustin Police Department has received no complaints or
responded to any service calls to the karaoke business and there have
been no substantiated code enforcement complaints since receiving its
Certificate of Occupancy.
5. That pertinent Conditions of Approval from Resolution No. 4319 are
carried forward in Resolution No. 4342 so that if, upon extending the
hours of operation impacts occur, the City can take appropriate action
to address them.
6. Alcoholic beverages are prohibited at the site in accordance with TCC
9271dd2a, which subjects onsite alcoholic beverage sales
establishments, other than restaurants, to a minimum distance
requirement of 1,000 feet from any residentially zoned or used
property. Residentially zoned properties are located within 1,000 feet
of the subject property to the north, south, east and west and alcoholic
beverage sales are therefore prohibited at this site.
