That the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 4365 approving Conditional Use
Permit (CUP) 2018-00005 to authorize the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-site
consumption in conjunction with an existing restaurant establishment (Cafe China Super
Buffet) located at 17631 East Seventeenth Street.
APPROVAL AUTHORITY
The project site is located within the Planned Community Commercial (PC-COM) zoning
district where uses authorized in the Retail Commercial (C1) and Central Commercial (C2)
zoning districts are also authorized within this project site. Pursuant to Tustin City Code
(TCC) Section 9232b(2), alcoholic beverage sales establishments are conditionally
permitted in the C1 zoning district subject to TCC Section 9271(dd) and the Planning
Commission's Guidelines for Alcoholic Beverage Sales Establishments.
Pursuant to Section 9299b(3)(g) of the TGC, the Zoning Administrator has the authority

Planning Commission for consideration and action.
BACKGROUND

The project site is located in an existing commercial building located at the northeast
corner of East Seventeenth Street and Treehaven Drive (Figure 1). The subject property
is improved with a 5,386 square-foot, single-story building. The main entrance of the
building is accessed from East Seventeenth Street with parking along the east and north
sides of the building. The property is zoned PC-COM and is designated as Planned
Community Commercial/Business (PCCB) by the General Plan, which provides
opportunities for a mixture of activities permitted within the Community Commercial,
Professional Office, and Industrial land use designations.
The properties located behind the site to the north are condominiums zoned Planned
Development (PD). The properties to the east are single-family residences zoned Single
Family Residential (R1). The properties to the south, across East Seventeenth Street, are
within Oak Tree Plaza, a retail plaza, zoned PC-COM. To the west, across Treehaven

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Project Summary
The applicant is requesting authorization to sell alcoholic beverages (Type 41: beer and
wine) in conjunction with an existing restaurant establishment. The existing Cafe China
Super Buffet restaurant has been operating at this location since August 2011. The
property was constructed for a restaurant establishment use in 1973 and was converted
to a buffet-style restaurant establishment in 2000 and has been operating in such
capacity since. The existing restaurant is a Chinese cuisine buffet-style eating
establishment that is 5,386 square feet in size and features a lobby, dining room area,
buffet line with food and beverage stations, restrooms, and kitchen and storage areas
(Figure 2). No outdoor restaurant seating area is proposed with this use.

Alcoholic Beverage Sales
The sale of alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption can be authorized in conjunction
with a "bona fide" restaurant use in conformance with the City's Alcoholic Beverage Sales
Establishment Guidelines as amended by the Planning Commission and adopted by the
City Council on May 21, 2001 and TCC Section 9271(dd). Pursuant to the Guidelines, a
restaurant use is defined as- "A retail establishment that sells food and beverages
prepared on the site, where customers are served for on-site consumption." At least
eighty (80) percent of the premise's seating shall be designed and used for food
consumption. Food would be sold during all hours the restaurant is open for business.
Also, the gross annual sales of food must exceed the sale of alcohol. As proposed, 100
percent of the premises' seating area would be used for food consumption and no bar
area is proposed. The application indicates that approximately eighty(80) percent of sales
are estimated to be from food and twenty (20) percent from alcoholic beverages.
Business Hours
The proposed food and beverage service hours of operation are from 11.00 a.m. to 9:00
p.m. weekly, Monday-Sunday, which is consistent with other restaurants in the vicinity.
The Tustin Police Department has reviewed the application and does not have any
concerns.

Parking
No impacts to parking are anticipated in conjunction with the proposed use. At 5,386
square feet, the business should provide fifty-four (54) parking spaces based on the
parking ratio for restaurant establishments at one (1) space per 100 square feet. Over the
years parking has been reduced due to American Disabilities Act (ADA) upgrades. No
change to the existing size of the existing restaurant is proposed. Therefore, the existing
forty-nine (49) parking stalls within the project site are adequate to serve the proposed
project. Nonetheless, should a parking issue arise, proposed Condition 1.6 would allow for
reevaluation of the business and CUP.
FINDINGS:
In determining whether to approve the CUP to authorize the sale of alcoholic beverages
for on-site consumption in conjunction with a 5,386 square-foot restaurant, the Planning
Commission must determine whether or not the proposed use will be detrimental to the
health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare of the persons residing or working in the
neighborhood, nor be injurious or detrimental to the property and improvements in the
neighborhood of the subject property, or to the general welfare of the City of Tustin. A
decision to approve this request may be supported by the following findings:
1. The proposed sale of beer and wine for on-site consumption in conjunction with a
restaurant establishment is allowed within the PC-COM zoning district with the
approval of a CUP..
2. As conditioned, the proposed on-site consumption of beer and wine is consistent
with the Alcoholic Beverage Sales Establishment Guidelines as amended by the
Planning Commission and adopted by the City Council on May 21, 2001, and the
TCC Section 9271(dd).
3. The on-site consumption of alcoholic beverages would be in conjunction with a
restaurant establishment where food will be served at all times when alcoholic
beverages are served.
4. Bona fide restaurants with on-site alcoholic beverage sales are exempt from
distance separation requirements to residential uses, sensitive uses, and other
alcoholic beverage sales establishments.
5. The restaurant establishment use is located within a commercial corridor along
East Seventeenth Street where a variety of retail, office and restaurant uses are
located. The characteristics of the restaurant establishment use with on-site
retail sales of alcoholic beverages and hours of operation of the restaurant would
be similar to other restaurants in the vicinity.
6. No expansion of the existing restaurant use is proposed; therefore, no parking
impacts are anticipated.
