CEQA.
SECTION 4: The custodian of records for the Project and all

public review in the Office of the City Clerk located at 4305 Santa Fe
Avenue, Vernon, California 90058.
SECTION 5: A new CUP is hereby issued. Issuance of the CUP
is proper, as the City Council hereby makes the following findings, as
required by Section 26.6.3-4 of the Vernon Municipal Code:
a. The lot for the proposed use is adequate in size, shape and
topography, including any required drainage and landscaping; The lot
has been utilized as a retail/commercial facility and will continue to
be used for the same purpose by the owner. The lot has easy street
access, and parking that meets legal requirements. The lot for the
proposed use is adequate in size, shape, and topography for a
retail/commercial facility because the owner has not proposed any
changes to.the size, shape or topography of the existing site, but is
- 3 -
merely requesting extensions of the days and business hours.
Expanding the hours of use at the very early morning and very late at
night are times of the day when there is little traffic, and limited
need for on -site parking; thus, the proposed modifications will not
negatively affect the sufficiency of the lot size, shape, topography,
drainage or landscaping.
b. The use permitted under the conditional use permit will not
adversely affect the interests of the public or the interests of other
residents and property owners within the vicinity of the lot in
question; The lot has been utilized as a retail/commercial facility
and the issuance of the conditional use permit amendment without
significant issues, and the amended CUP will not cause or allow any
changes to the use or exterior modifications to the structure that
would adversely affect the residents or property owners in the
vicinity. Furthermore, the conditions on the issuance of the CUP to
require the owner to maintain a parking monitor to ensure that patrons
will mitigate any existing impacts on neighboring properties.
C. The proposed use will be compatible with the permitted uses
of surrounding and adjacent properties; The proposed project is a
request to continue the operation of a pre-existing retail/commercial
operation. No material changes to the use or structure is proposed.
The pre-existing retail/commercial facility will in no way negatively
impact neighboring properties, because the proposed site has been
surrounded by commercial, industrial and warehousing uses that are
compatible with the proposed use and will continue to be used for the
same purpose.
d. The lot has adequate off-street parking and loading
facilities for the proposed use; The proposed project will continue
- 4 -
the operation of a pre-existing retail/commercial operation.
No material changes to the use or structure is proposed. Merely
expanding the permissible hours of operation of an already permitted
retail/commercial facility will not negatively impact neighboring
properties, because the site is surrounded by commercial, industrial
and warehousing uses that are compatible with the proposed use and
will continue to be used for the same purpose.
e. The use, as to location, operation and design, is consistent
with the general plan, any applicable specific plan and the zoning
regulations of the City of Vernon, including the city's policy
considerations as to acceptable uses in the city; The use, as to
location, operation and design, is consistent with the objectives of
the Vernon Zoning Code and General Plan. The proposed site is
designed to support the industrial and manufacturing uses by providing
a convenient facility for employees to dine and shop. Therefore, the
use is consistent with Vernon Zoning Code and General Plan as the
amendment of the CUP will ensure zoning capability. Additionally, the
amendment of the CUP will be consistent with the goals and policies of
the General Plan of encouraging industrial uses in the City.
Providing commercial venues during expanded hours will support those
employees that must work Sundays or "graveyard" shifts.
f. The use is consistent with all applicable county, state, and
federal laws, rules and regulations; The proposed use is consistent
with all applicable local, County, State and Federal laws, rules and
regulations as conditioned below.
g. The proposed use will not adversely affect the general
welfare as a result of noise, increased traffic, interference with the
flow of traffic, dust, or other undesirable characteristics; The
- 5 -
commercial use is not changing with the CUP. amendment. The changes to
the hours of operations will not adversely impact the level of service
of the existing road system because the hours of operation are on the
days when there is the least congestion. Additionally, various
conditions are imposed to ensure the project does not cause excess
noise or impede traffic flow, such as anti -loitering and anti -crime
precautions. Therefore, the general welfare of the community will not
be adversely impacted. A traffic study was previously done, which
considered this as a possible use.
h. The conditions stated in the decision are deemed necessary
to protect the public health, safety and general welfare; The
conditions imposed on the Project are necessary to protect the public
health, safety and general welfare.
SECTION 6: In order to adequately protect the public health
and general welfare, it is recommended that the current conditions of
approval as set forth in Resolution No. 8946 and 9516 remain with the
exception that condition "e" and "x" be amended to read as follows:

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Sergio Canales, Planning Assistant
APPROVED BY: Samuel Kevin Wilson, Director of Community Services & Water
RE: Conditional Use Permit Amendment for Merco Group-2529 Santa Fe
Avenue, LLC (Merco Group) at 2529 Santa Fe Avenue
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution that:
1) Finds that approval of the Conditional Use Permit proposed in this staff report is categorically
exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Title 14,
Chapter 3, Class 1, Section 15301 because no physical changes other than minor interior tenant
improvements will occur as a result of this approval, and no significant impact to the environment
will occur as a result of the issuance of the CUP.
2) Amends the conditional use permit for a retail center at 2529 Santa Fe Avenue granted under
Resolution No. 2013-150 to allow the days and hours for the operations to be extended, and to
add or revise conditions of approval.
BACKGROUND
On February 15, 2006, via Resolution No. 8946, the City Council issued a Conditional Use Permit
("CUP") to operate a retail/commercial facility at 2529 Santa Fe Avenue. On January 7, 2008 by
Resolution No. 9516, the City Council amended the CUP to allow a sit-down restaurant with
alcohol consumption. On August 7, 2012 by Resolution No. 2013-150, City Council again
amended the CUP to allow the operating hours to be extended. The property owner of 2529 Santa
Fe Avenue (Santa Fe Plaza), Merco Group-2529 Santa Fe Avenue, LLC (the "Applicant"), has
submitted yet another CUP application requesting further amendment to condition of approval
"x" to the CUP approved on August 7, 2012 by Resolution No. 2012-150, which states:
X. The Applicant's hours and days of operation of retail, commercial and restaurant
uses on the site shall be limited to 5:00 a.m. to I0:00p.m. Monday thru Saturday.
The Applicant wishes to allow all businesses to be open Sunday. In addition, the Applicant
requests that the CUP be revised to extend the permissible business hours from 4:00 a.m. to 12:00
a.m. (midnight), 7 days a week. Staff recommends the City Council approve the CUP, with
additional conditions.
PROJECT SITE
The lot is approximately 70,281 square feet and consists of two one-story buildings totaling exactly
15,000 square feet (inclusive of patio space). A restaurant, Trattoria 25, occupies approximately
4,702 square feet of indoor area and 900 square feet of outdoor patio area. The remaining 9,398
square feet are currently unoccupied. The project site is supported by an existing 96 stall surface
parking lot and two truck parking/loading stalls.
The Applicant's intends to locate a Circle K convenience store on the property to occupy 2,000 of
the empty 9,398 square feet. The Applicant does not yet have plans for the remaining 7,398
square feet. The Applicant has stated that Circle K would only operate a store in this location if
the permissible hours of operation were expanded as requested.
The Applicant has indicated that it does not plan to expand or structurally alter the existing
building, although indoor renovations are expected.
Parking and Traffic
Before the original CUP was issued, a parking study was created. That study determined that,
pursuant to the ITE Parking Generation Manual, 96 parking spaces were required. The
development plan approved for the original CUP provided exactly 96 spaces. Because the use of
the property is not changing, the number of required parking spaces will remain the same
The property owner proposes to utilize a combination of services to monitor the parking facility
(including the 30 minute parking spaces) by way of periodic monitoring through the use of
security cameras, security services and peak time parking attendants. Vehicles abusing the facility
would first be given notice and towed at owner expense.
The project site has two driveways that access the site, one located on 251h Street and the other on
Santa Fe Avenue. Trucks and automobiles accessing the site will share these driveways. Santa Fe
Avenue is 80 feet wide and is of adequate size and pavement type to handle the traffic generated
from the proposed operation. 25`h Street is 60 feet wide and is of adequate size and pavement type
to handle the traffic generated from the proposed operation.
The traffic analysis that was conducted when the original project was approved evaluated the
traffic impacts at the adjacent intersection. The analysis was conducted for both the morning and
evening peak periods. According to that study, traffic operations in the surrounding area would
not be adversely affected by the moderate increase in traffic volumes expected to be generated by
the proposed project. The proposed expansion of hours into the times of the day where there is
the least traffic is not expected to detrimentally impact traffic flow.
The current permitted parking capacity of 96 parking stalls would not increase, as it is expected to
be sufficient to accommodate proposed tenants, regardless of the hours of operation. The
vehicular trips that would be generated by the proposed extension of days and business hours will
not cause the level of service of the surrounding intersections to be significantly impacted.
Therefore, the project site is of adequate size, shape and topography for the proposed operation.
ZONING AND GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The proposed use is in accordance with the General Plan. Section 26.4.2-3(a & b) of the
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance allows retail and commercial uses in the (C) Overlay District of
the I -Zone with a conditional use permit. Further, it is consistent with Policy LU-1.2 of the
element because it allows the commercial use, but only with the CUP:
"LU-1.2. Permit only those non -industrial uses, such as commercial and retail uses which
are necessary to support industry, and its employees or as required by State law. Limit such
uses to the commercial overlay district, and permit only with a Conditional Use Permit".
The proposed policy is also consistent with the Zoning Code because the site is within the (C)
Overlay District of the I -Zone, Industrial. The proposed commercial uses will serve industrial uses
and their employees. Commercial uses will remain a secondary use within Vernon.
CEOA ANALYSIS
The issuance of the CUP is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15301, because it is an existing structure involving
negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency's
determination; the only expected construction would be interior tenant improvements.
Furthermore, the proposed site is surrounded by commercial, industrial and warehousing uses that
are compatible with the proposed use, and which would not be detrimentally impacted by
expanded hours of operation. No potentially significant impacts are expected to result from noise,
odor, dust, smoke, light or glare from the project, particularly because conditions include the
installation of security cameras and signs prohibiting loitering. Last, and most importantly, the
use is already authorized, and the mere expansion of the hours of operation to times when traffic
and noise are already lower than the norm will not have any significant effect on the environment.
A Notice of Exemption will be prepared and filed with the County Clerk.
STATE OR FEDERAL CONDITIONS
All Federal, State, and local regulatory permits shall be obtained as required for the operation.
STAFF FINDINGS
A conditional use permit shall only be granted if the following findings as required by Section 26.6.3-
4 of the Vernon Zoning Code can be made. Staff concludes that the following findings can be made,
and recommends that they be made in the following manner:
a. The lot for the proposed use is adequate in size, shape and topography, including any
required drainage and landscaping;
The lot has been utilized as a retail/commercial facility and will continue to be used for the same
purpose by the owner. The lot has easy street access, and parking that meets legal requirements.
The lot for the proposed use is adequate in size, shape, and topography for a retail/commercial
facility because the owner has not proposed any changes to the size, shape or topography of the
existing site, but is merely requesting extensions of the days and business hours. Expanding the
hours of use at the very early morning and very late at night are times of the day when there is
little traffic, and limited need for on -site parking; thus, the proposed modifications will not
negatively affect the sufficiency of the lot size, shape, topography, drainage or landscaping.
b. The use permitted under the conditional use permit will not adversely affect the interests
of the public or the interests of other residents and property owners within the vicinity of the lot
in question;
The lot has been utilized as a retail/commercial facility and the issuance of the conditional use
permit amendment without significant issues, and the amended CUP will not cause or allow any
changes to the use or exterior modifications to the structure that would adversely affect the
residents or property owners in the vicinity. Furthermore, the conditions on the issuance of the
CUP to require the owner to maintain a parking monitor to ensure that patrons will mitigate any
existing impacts on neighboring properties.
C. The proposed use will be compatible with the permitted uses of surrounding and adjacent
properties;
The proposed project will continue the operation of a pre-existing retail/commercial operation.
No material changes to the use or structure is proposed. Merely expanding the permissible hours
of operation of an already permitted retail/commercial facility will not negatively impact
neighboring properties, because the site is surrounded by commercial, industrial and
warehousing uses that are compatible with the proposed use and will continue to be used for the
same purpose.
d. The lot has adequate off-street parking and loading facilities for the proposed use,
The existing building at 2529 Santa Fe Avenue was constructed with ninety-six stall surface
parking lot and two truck parking/loading stalls which met the requirements of the code when it
was permitted. The total square footage of the project site that was first approved will not be
changing and the parking required remains unchanged. The number of stalls required to be
provided was based on the ITE Parking Generation Manual. No structural alterations are
proposed. Expansion of hours into the early morning, late evening, and Sundays will not
negatively impact parking and loading, because during those hours, there is expected to be
considerable parking and loading spaces available.
e. The use, as to location, operation and design, is consistent with the general plan, any
applicable specific plan and the zoning regulations of the City of Vernon, including the city's
policy considerations as to acceptable uses in the city;
The use, as to location, operation and design, is consistent with the objectives of the Vernon
Zoning Code and General Plan. The proposed site is designed to support the industrial and
manufacturing uses by providing a convenient facility for employees to dine and shop.
Therefore, the use is consistent with Vernon Zoning Code and General Plan as the amendment of
the CUP will ensure zoning capability. Additionally, the amendment of the CUP will be
consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan of encouraging industrial uses in the
City. Providing commercial venues during expanded hours will support those employees that
must work Sundays or "graveyard" shifts.
f. The use is consistent with all applicable county, state, and federal laws, rules and
regulations;
The proposed use is consistent with all applicable local, County, State and Federal laws, rules
and regulations as conditioned below.
g. The proposed use will not adversely affect the general welfare as a result of noise,
increased traffic, interference with the flow of traffic, dust, or other undesirable characteristics;
The commercial use is not changing with the CUP amendment. The changes to the hours of
operations will not adversely impact the level of service of the existing road system because the
hours of operation are on the days when there is the least congestion. Additionally, various
conditions are imposed to ensure the project does not cause excess noise or impede traffic flow,
such as anti -loitering and anti -crime precautions. Therefore, the general welfare of the
community will not be adversely impacted. A traffic study was previously done, which
considered this as a possible use.
h. The conditions stated in the decision are deemed necessary to protect the public health,
safety and general welfare.
The conditions imposed on the Project are necessary to protect the public health, safety and
general welfare.
It is recommended that the current conditions of approval as approved in Resolution No. 8946
and 9516 remain with the exception that condition "e" and "x" be amended to read as follows:
e. The Project shall be operated in a manner that will not impede traffic on Santa Fe
Avenue or 25a' Street. All vehicles shall enter and exit the site in a front forward manner.
No maneuvering or vehicle parking associated with the Project shall take place offsite or
on the public street without prior approval from the Community Services Department. If
at any time, it is determined by the Director of Community Services & Water that the
parking provided on -site does not meet the Project's parking demands, upon 60 days
written notice, and at the end of the 60 days, to meet the Project's parking demand the
property owner shall be required to provide additional off -site parking or reduce the
onsite parking demand. The Director of Community Services & Water retains authority
to determine whether the additional off -site parking adequately meets the Project's
parking demands, and the Applicant shall cooperatively work with the Director of
Community Services & Water to ensure adequate parking options for the Project's
parking demands.
X. The Project's hours and days of operation of retail, commercial and restaurant
uses on the site shall be limited to 4:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. (midnight), 7 days a week.

intentional wrongdoing of the City of Vernon, its officers, agents or employees; (2) a
peremptory writ or other relief by way of injunction, mandamus, or administrative
mandamus; and/or (3) legal expenses and attorney's fees incurred by the City of Vernon

STAFF REPORT
COMMUNITY SERVICES & WATER DEPARTMENT
V
DATE: May 6, 2014
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Sergio Canales, Planning Assistant
APPROVED BY: Samuel Kevin Wilson, Director of Community Services & Water
RE: Conditional Use Permit Amendment for Merco Group-2529 Santa Fe
Avenue, LLC (Merco Group) at 2529 Santa Fe Avenue
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution that:
1) Finds that approval of the Conditional Use Permit proposed in this staff report is categorically
exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Title 14,
Chapter 3, Class 1, Section 15301 because no physical changes other than minor interior tenant
improvements will occur as a result of this approval, and no significant impact to the environment
will occur as a result of the issuance of the CUP.
2) Amends the conditional use permit for a retail center at 2529 Santa Fe Avenue granted under
Resolution No. 2013-150 to allow the days and hours for the operations to be extended, and to
add or revise conditions of approval.
BACKGROUND
On February 15, 2006, via Resolution No. 8946, the City Council issued a Conditional Use Permit
("CUP") to operate a retail/commercial facility at 2529 Santa Fe Avenue. On January 7, 2008 by
Resolution No. 9516, the City Council amended the CUP to allow a sit-down restaurant with
alcohol consumption. On August 7, 2012 by Resolution No. 2013-150, City Council again
amended the CUP to allow the operating hours to be extended. The property owner of 2529 Santa
Fe Avenue (Santa Fe Plaza), Merco Group-2529 Santa Fe Avenue, LLC (the "Applicant'), has
submitted yet another CUP application requesting further amendment to condition of approval
"x" to the CUP approved on August 7, 2012 by Resolution No. 2012-150, which states:
X. The Applicant's hours and days of operation of retail, commercial and restaurant
uses on the site shall be limited to 5:00 a. m. to 10: 00 p. m. Monday thru Saturday.
The Applicant wishes to allow all businesses to be open Sunday. In addition, the Applicant
requests that the CUP be revised to extend the permissible business hours from 4:00 a.m. to 12:00
a.m. (midnight), 7 days a week. Staff recommends the City Council approve the CUP, with
additional conditions.
PROJECT SITE
The lot is approximately 70,281 square feet and consists of two one-story buildings totaling exactly
15,000 square feet (inclusive of patio space). A restaurant, Trattoria 25, occupies approximately
4,702 square feet of indoor area and 900 square feet of outdoor patio area. The remaining 9,398
square feet are currently unoccupied. The project site is supported by an existing 96 stall surface
parking lot and two truck parking/loading stalls.
The Applicant's intends to locate a Circle K convenience store on the property to occupy 2,000 of
the empty 9,398 square feet. The Applicant does not yet have plans for the remaining 7,398
square feet. The Applicant has stated that Circle K would only operate a store in this location if
the permissible hours of operation were expanded as requested.
The Applicant has indicated that does not plan to expand or structurally alter the existing
building, although indoor renovations are expected.
Parking and Traffic
Before the original CUP was issued, a parking study was created. That study determined that,
pursuant to the ITE Parking Generation Manual, 96 parking spaces were required. The
development plan approved for the original CUP provided exactly 96 spaces. Because the use of
the property is not changing, the number of required parking spaces will remain the same
The property owner proposes to utilize a combination of services to monitor the parking facility
(including the 30 minute parking spaces) by way of periodic monitoring through the use of
security cameras, security services and peak time parking attendants. Vehicles abusing the facility
would first be given notice and towed at owner expense.
The project site has two driveways that access the site, one located on 25'h Street and the other on
Santa Fe Avenue. Trucks and automobiles accessing the site will share these driveways. Santa Fe
Avenue is 80 feet wide and is of adequate size and pavement type to handle the traffic generated
from the proposed operation. 25`h Street is 60 feet wide and is of adequate size and pavement type
to handle the traffic generated from the proposed operation.
The traffic analysis that was conducted when the original project was approved evaluated the
traffic impacts at the adjacent intersection. The analysis was conducted for both the morning and
evening peak periods. According to that study, traffic operations in the surrounding area would
not be adversely affected by the moderate increase in traffic volumes expected to be generated by
the proposed project. The proposed expansion of hours into the times of the day where there is
the least traffic is not expected to detrimentally impact traffic flow.
The current permitted parking capacity of 96 parking stalls would not increase, as it is expected to
be sufficient to accommodate proposed tenants, regardless of the hours of operation. The
vehicular trips that would be generated by the proposed extension of days and business hours will
not cause the level of service of the surrounding intersections to be significantly impacted.
Therefore, the project site is of adequate size, shape and topography for the proposed operation.
ZONING AND GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The proposed use is in accordance with the General Plan. Section 26.4.2-3(a & b) of the
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance allows retail and commercial uses in the (C) Overlay District of
the I -Zone with a conditional use permit. Further, it is consistent with Policy LU-1.2 of the
element because it allows the commercial use, but only with the CUP:
"LU-1.2. Permit only those non -industrial uses, such as commercial and retail uses which
are necessary to support industry, and its employees or as required by State law. Limit such
uses to the commercial overlay district, and permit only with a Conditional Use Permit".
The proposed policy is also consistent with the Zoning Code because the site is within the (C)
Overlay District of the I -Zone, Industrial. The proposed commercial uses will serve industrial uses
and their employees. Commercial uses will remain a secondary use within Vernon. .
CEQA ANALYSIS
The issuance of the CUP is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15301, because it is an existing structure involving
negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency's
determination; the only expected construction would be interior tenant improvements.
Furthermore, the proposed site is surrounded by commercial, industrial and warehousing uses that
are compatible with the proposed use, and which would not be detrimentally impacted by
expanded hours of operation. No potentially significant impacts are expected to result from noise,
odor, dust, smoke, light or glare from the project, particularly because conditions include the
installation of security cameras and signs prohibiting loitering. Last, and most importantly, the
use is already authorized, and the mere expansion of the hours of operation to times when traffic
and noise are already lower than the norm will not have any significant effect on the environment.
A Notice of Exemption will be prepared and filed with the County Clerk.
STATE OR FEDERAL CONDITIONS
All Federal, State, and local regulatory permits shall be obtained as required for the operation.
STAFF FINDINGS
A conditional use pertnit shall only be granted if the following findings as required by Section 26.6.3-
4 of the Vernon Zoning Code can be made. Staff concludes that the following findings can be made,
and recommends that they be made in the following manner:
a. The lot for the proposed use is adequate in size, shape and topography, including any
required drainage and landscaping;
The lot has been utilized as a retail/commercial facility and will continue to be used for the same
purpose by the owner. The lot has easy street access, and parking that meets legal requirements.
The lot for the proposed use is adequate in size, shape, and topography for a retail/commercial
facility because the owner has not proposed any changes to the size, shape or topography of the
existing site, but is merely requesting extensions of the days and business hours. Expanding the
hours of use at the very early morning and very late at night are times of the day when there is
little traffic, and limited need for on -site parking; thus, the proposed modifications will not
negatively affect the sufficiency of the lot size, shape, topography, drainage or landscaping.
b. The use permitted under the conditional use permit will not adversely affect the interests
of the public or the interests of other residents and property owners within the vicinity of the lot
in question;
The lot has been utilized as a retail/commercial facility and the issuance of the conditional use
permit amendment without significant issues, and the amended CUP will not cause or allow any
changes to the use or exterior modifications to the structure that would adversely affect the
residents or property owners in the vicinity. Furthermore, the conditions on the issuance of the
CUP to require the owner to maintain a parking monitor to ensure that patrons will mitigate any
existing impacts on neighboring properties.
C. The proposed use will be compatible with the permitted uses of surrounding and adjacent
properties;
The proposed project will continue the operation of a pre-existing retail/commercial operation.
No material changes to the use or structure is proposed. Merely expanding the permissible hours
of operation of an already permitted retail/commercial facility will not negatively impact
neighboring properties, because the site is surrounded by commercial, industrial and
warehousing uses that are compatible with the proposed use and will continue to be used for the
same purpose.
d. The lot has adequate off-street parking and loading facilities for the proposed use,
The existing building at 2529 Santa Fe Avenue was constructed with ninety-six stall surface
parking lot and two truck parking/loading stalls which met the requirements of the code when it
was permitted. The total square footage of the project site that was first approved will not be
changing and the parking required remains unchanged. The number of stalls required to be
provided was based on the ITE Parking Generation Manual. No structural alterations are
proposed. Expansion of hours into the early morning, late evening, and Sundays will not
negatively impact parking and loading, because during those hours, there is expected to be
considerable parking and loading spaces available.
e. The use, as to location, operation and design, is consistent with the general plan, any
applicable specific plan and the zoning regulations of the City of Vernon, including the city's
policy considerations as to acceptable uses in the city;
The use, as to location, operation and design, is consistent with the objectives of the Vernon
Zoning Code and General Plan. The proposed site is designed to support the industrial and
manufacturing uses by providing a convenient facility for employees to dine and shop.
Therefore, the use is consistent with Vernon Zoning Code and General Plan as the amendment of
the CUP will ensure zoning capability. Additionally, the amendment of the CUP will be
consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan of encouraging industrial uses in the
City. Providing commercial venues during expanded hours will support those employees that
must work Sundays or "graveyard" shifts.
f. The use is consistent with all applicable county, state, and federal laws, rules and
regulations;
The proposed use is consistent with all applicable local, County, State and Federal laws, rules
and regulations as conditioned below.
g. The proposed use will not adversely affect the general welfare as a result of noise,
increased traffic, interference with the flow of traffic, dust, or other undesirable characteristics;
The commercial use is not changing with the CUP amendment. The changes to the hours of
operations will not adversely impact the level of service of the existing road system because the
hours of operation are on the days when there is the least congestion. Additionally, various
conditions are imposed to ensure the project does not cause excess noise or impede traffic flow,
such as anti -loitering and anti -crime precautions. Therefore, the general welfare of the
community will not be adversely impacted. A traffic study was previously done, which
considered this as a possible use.
h. The conditions stated in the decision are deemed necessary to protect the public health,
safety and general welfare.
The conditions imposed on the Project are necessary to protect the public health, safety and
general welfare.
CONDITIONS
It is recommended that the current conditions of approval as approved in Resolution No. 8946
and 9516 remain with the exception that condition "e" and "x" be amended to read as follows:
e. The Project shall be operated in a manner that will not impede traffic on Santa Fe
Avenue or 25U' Street. All vehicles shall enter and exit the site in a front forward manner.
No maneuvering or vehicle parking associated with the Project shall take place offsite or
on the public street without prior approval from the Community Services Department. If
at any time, it is determined by the Director of Community Services & Water that the
parking provided on -site does not meet the Project's parking demands, upon 60 days
written notice, and at the end of the 60 days, the property owner shall be required to
provide additional off -site parking to meet the Project's demands. The Director of
Community Services & Water retains authority to determine whether the additional off -
site parking adequately meets the Project's parking demands, and the Applicant shall
cooperatively work with the Director of Community Services & Water to ensure adequate
parking options for the Project's parking demands.
X. The Applicant's hours and days of operation of retail, commercial and restaurant
uses on the site shall be limited to 4:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. (midnight), 7 days a week.
The following additional conditions will be added as conditions dd, ee, ff, gg, hh, and ii:
dd. The Applicant and any successors in interest shall indemnify, hold harmless and
defend the City of Vernon, its officers, agents and employees from and against any and
all claims, complaints or petitions for: (1) damages, losses, expenses resulting from
bodily injury, sickness, disease, disability or death arising from the operation of the
facility excluding therefrom any such claim resulting from the sole negligence or
intentional wrongdoing of the City of Vernon, its officers, agents or employees; (2) a
peremptory writ or other relief by way of injunction, mandamus, or administrative,
mandamus; and/or (3) legal expenses and attorney's fees incurred by the City of Vernon
on behalf of any party in such actions or proceedings. The City of Vernon does not
waive its right to participate in the defense of any such action.
ee. Not later than twenty (20) days from the date of approval of this conditional use
permit, the Applicant shall indicate, in writing, its acceptance of and agreement with the
conditions herein. The conditional; use permit shall be void and of no force or effect
unless such written acceptance and agreement is submitted to the City within the twenty -
day period.
ff. Noncompliance with any of the conditions herein shall constitute sufficient
grounds for the City of Vernon to void this conditional use permit, or take appropriate
enforcement action, including citation and or fines for a violation.
gg. A security guard or valet parking attendant shall be provided between the hours of
11 a.m. and 2 p.m. to ensure that patrons of any use located at 2529 Santa Fe Avenue are
not utilizing parking facilities on adjoining properties. The security guard or valet
parking attendant shall warn violators that failure to remove vehicles parked without
permission on neighboring properties will cause the vehicles to be subject to possible
towing. If, during any particular one hour block on any given day of the week, over a
period of four consecutive such days (e.g. four consecutive Saturdays), 90% of the
designated parking spaces are occupied, then, in addition to the hours of 11 a.m. through
2 p.m., a security guard or valet parking attendant shall be provided until such time as the
Director of Community Services & Water determines in writing either that during said
hour block, less than 65% of the designated parking spaces are occupied, or that alternate
measures will be taken to sufficiently limit any adverse parking effects on neighboring
properties.
hh. At the request of the property owners of the immediately adjacent properties,
install signs of a reasonable size and expense that state "Unauthorized vehicles will be
towed at the owner's expense, Section 22658 CVC (Towing Company Phone (XXX)
XXX-XXXX). City of Vernon Police (323) 587-5171."
ii. A surveillance camera system shall be installed and operated on a 24 hour basis to
monitor and record no less than the outside perimeter of the site itself, any public

parking areas of the site.
jj. A sign of no less than 4 square feet in size shall be prominently posted in the
window of any business operating before 5 a.m., or after 10 p.m. which states,
"LOITERING PROHIBITED BY LAW."

This is written to address the questions on the City Comment letter dated March 12,
2014.
1. Provide discussion on how the 21 parking stalls (30 minute parking stalls) will be
enforced. The site plan should reflect the 21 parking stalls that will be assigned for 30
minute parking.
The property owners will utilize a combination of services to monitor the parking facility
(including the 30 minute parking spaces) by way of periodic monitoring through the use
of security cameras, security services and peak time parking attendants. Vehicles abusing
the facility will be first given notice and then cited and or towed at owner expense. Please
see attached revised site plan
