PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Use Permit request is to allow for sales, service and consumption of food with alcohol
sales (ABC License Type 47 - on-site sales of beer, wine and distilled spirits) for an existing
restaurant located at 1510 Anchors Way Drive (Attachment A) and within the (H-C) Harbor
Commercial zone. The Rhumb Line Restaurant will be reopening at the old Scotch and Sirloin
location. The customer service seating area for the restaurant will be contained within
approximately 3100 square feet inside the building and 600 square feet of patio area.
Proposed daily hours of operation are from 9:30 AM to 1:30 AM. Beer, wine and distilled
spirits will be available during all hours of operation.
STAFF ANALYSIS
The proposed restaurant is a permitted use within the underlying H-C zone. However, per
Municipal Code Regulations Chapter 24.460 ("Alcoholic Beverage Establishments-Use
Project No. 4102
PC/05/08/12/KP
Page 1
Permits"), a Use Permit must be approved for any business engaged in the sale of alcoholic
beverages. The purpose of a Use Permit is to adequately condition a project in a way to
minimize potential negative impacts to the health, safety and general welfare of the
community, residents and surrounding properties. As part of project review for the Rhumb
Line Restaurant, staff, working with the Police Department, recommends operational
conditions that are based upon the individual business plan and that will ensure the
establishment will be compatible with the surrounding uses. Recommended operational
conditions included in the draft resolution of approval (Attachment B), are summarize as
follows:
1. Sales, service and consumption of alcoholic beverages shall be permitted only between
the hours of 9:30 AM and 1:30 AM daily.
2. The consumption of alcoholic beverages on any property adjacent to the licensed
premises and under the control of the licensee(s) is prohibited.
3. Employees must be certified in a L.E.A.D's or RBS Alcohol server training course.
4. No advertising of alcoholic beverages visible to the outside of the establishment,
including advertising directed to the exterior from within, promoting or indicating the
availability of alcoholic beverages is allowed. The permanent signage of the business
name is not considered as an advertisement under this condition.
5. Alcoholic beverages shall not be offered at significantly reduced prices that are meant to
encourage greater consumption of alcohol, such as a "Happy Hour" type promotion.
6. Alcoholic beverages shall be served in standard sizes that are consistent with the
industry and shall not be served by the pitcher, bucket or similar high capacity amounts.
7. Any graffiti painted or marked upon the premises or on any adjacent area under the
control of the licensee shall be removed or painted over within forty-eight (48) hours of
being applied.
8. The licensee shall be responsible for maintaining free of litter the premises or on any
adjacent area over which the licensee has control.
9. The licensee shall post a prominent, permanent sign or signs stating, "No person under
21 will be served alcoholic beverages" and "Valid ID is required to purchase alcoholic
beverages."
10. The Police Chief or his designee may immediately suspend operation of the uses
approved by this permit pending a hearing on the revocation of this permit if the Chief
finds that there have been significant violations of the use permit conditions and/or State
ABC license, or there is a single serious violent crime or single significant incident to
which multiple police units or multiple jurisdictions respond associated with the
Project No. 4102
PC/05/08/12/KP
Page 2
operation of this use, which the Chief determines is detrimental to the public safety or
health. The Chief shall immediately inform the Community Development Director of the
suspension and the manager shall schedule a hearing on the revocation of the permit
by the Planning Commission to be held no more than thirty (30) days after the
suspension begins.
11.A copy of these conditions must be maintained on the premises by the licensee and
made available upon the demand of any peace officer at all times.
12.lf complaints are received regarding excessive noise, parking availability, lighting,
building access, and the like, associated with the establishment, the City may, at its
discretion, take action to review the Use Permit, including, without limitation, adding
conditions or revoking the permit.
13. The licensee shall have readily identifiable personnel to monitor and control the
behavior of customers in and around the premises and adjacent areas under their
control.
14. The licensee shall regularly police the area under the licensee's control in an effort to
prevent the loitering of persons about the premises.
15. The establishment employees shall not be allowed to consume alcoholic beverages
during their shift.
16. Security cameras shall be installed to monitor the premises and be positioned to
monitor at minimum the entry/exit.,
The establishment is located within the Harbor area. The proposed restaurant is compatible
with the existing uses within the area and will contribute to an undue concentration of alcohol
beverage establishments as identified by staff (Attachment C). The Use Permit has
operational conditions identified above that would minimize potential for police service calls
and potential impacts to adjacent uses. A representative from the police department will be
present at the Planning Commission meeting to answer questions.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Planning Commission approve the requested Use Permit, based on the
findings and subject to the conditions contained in the attached draft Planning Commission
Resolution (Attachment 8).
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
The proposed project is Categorically Exempt from the provIsions of the California

PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO.
APPROVING A USE PERMIT
PROJECT -4102
CASE NO.: UP-3-12-9861
BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of San Buenaventura as
follows:
SECTION 1: An application has been filed by Samuel S. Sadove, owner of Rhumb Line
Restaurant, pursuant to the City of San Buenaventura Municipal Code, for a Use Permit for onsite sales, service and consumption of alcohol with food sales (ABC License Type 47 - on-site
sales of beer, wine and distilled spirits) for property zoned H-C Harbor Commercial located at
1510 Anchors Way Drive and more particularly described as Assessor's Parcel Number 084-0240-245.
SECTION 2: All proceedings having been duly taken as required by law, and upon
review of the information provided and consideration of the testimony given at the public
hearing, as well as other pertinent information, the Planning Commission finds as follows:
Alcohol Use Permit
1.
Required Finding: "The proposed alcoholic beverage establishment is located in a
zoning district in which the establishment is a permitted use," per Municipal Code
Section 24.460.240(1).
The proposed alcoholic beverage establishment is part of a use type (full service dining)
that is consistent with the purposes of the Municipal Code for the H-C Zone.
2.
Required Finding: "The proposed establishment will not contribute to an undue
concentration of alcohol establishments in the area," per Municipal Code Section
24.460.240(2).
While the proposed establishment will add impacts to an area already experiencing and
undue concentration of establishments, the proposed beer, wine and distilled spirits
sales as part of a restaurant has been appropriately conditioned in order to minimize
impacts upon the general public and adjacent uses, and the proposed license (Type 47)
is not a bar for drinking-only activities.
3.
Required Finding: "The proposed establishment will not detrimentally affect nearby
neighborhoods considering the distance of the alcohol establishment to residential
buildings, churches, schools, hospitals, playgrounds, parks, and other existing alcohol
establishments," per Municipal Code Section 24.460.240(3).
A12-00113
The proposed establishment will not detrimentally affect nearby neighborhoods
considering the distance of the alcohol establishment to residential buildings, churches,
schools, hospitals, playgrounds, parks, and other existing alcohol establishments
because the restaurant is located in the harbor area and surrounded primarily by other
commercial uses. Further, the proposed establishment has been adequately
conditioned through the operational plan to minimize the impacts to the surrounding
uses.
4.
Required Finding: "The proposed establishment will otherwise be compatible with
existing and potential uses within the general area," per Municipal Code Section
24.460.240(4 ).
The proposed establishment will otherwise be compatible with existing and potential
uses within the general area, because the proposed use of combining food service in a
bona fide eating-place with beer, wine and distilled spirits alcohol service is compatible
with other commercial and visitor-serving uses in the immediate vicinity and within the
H-C Zone.
5.
Required Finding: "The proposed establishment is not located in what has been
determined to be a high-crime area, or where a disproportionate number of police
service calls occur," per Municipal Code Section 24.460.240(5).
The proposed establishment is situated within a reporting district, which according to the
Police Department incident reports, is considered a high crime area and does generate
a disproportionate number of police service calls when compared to other areas of the
City. When incidents occur, the Harbor Patrol has indicated that it is willing to be the first
to respond. However, the establishment has been adequately conditioned through the
operational plan to minimize potential impacts to the surrounding area and reduce the
potential demand for police service calls. In particular conditions 3, 4, 5, 13, 15, 16 and
17 will mitigate the potential for impacting police service demands.
California Environmental Quality Act
6.
The proposed project is Categorically Exempt from the provisions of
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as provided by Class (1), Section
CEQA Guidelines because the requested on-site sales of beer, wine and
is a permitted use within the underlying zone and is a minor alteration
facility.

of an existing
(a) Location. Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 are qualified by consideration of where the
project is to be located -- a project that is ordinarily insignificant in its impact on
the environment may in a particularly sensitive environment be significant.
Therefore, these classes are considered to apply all instances, except where the
project may impact on an environmental resource of hazardous or critical
A12-00113
Project No. 4102
PC/05/08/2012/KP
Page 2
concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted pursuant to
law by federal, state, or local agencies.
The project site is located within an urban core surrounded by commercial uses,
and is not located near any environmental resource that would be affected by the
project. Therefore, the project will have no impact on an environmental resource
of hazardous or critical concern.
(b) Cumulative Impact. All exemptions for these classes are inapplicable when the
cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place,
over time is significant.
The request to serve alcohol within the existing restaurant is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan and Municipal Code. New businesses requesting a Use
Permit for alcohol sales require discretionary approval that has been analyzed
under with the Comprehensive Plan and the Municipal Code for consistency and
CEQA for any potential impacts. Therefore the project will have no significant
cumulative impact.
(c) Significant Effect. A categorical exemption shall not be used for an activity where
there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on
the environment due to unusual circumstances.
There are no unusual circumstances that would cause the project to have a
significant effect on the environment. The property is currently developed as a
typical commercial property and the project will not alter the commercial
character of the property. Therefore, the project will not have a significant effect
on the environment due to unusual circumstances. .
(d) Scenic Highways. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which
may result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees,
historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway
officially designated as a state scenic highway. This does not apply to
improvements, which are required as mitigation by an adopted negative
declaration or certified EIR.
Although the project is located within the Ventura Harbor, where scenic views are
to be maintained, the on-site sale of alcoholic beverages does not involve any
physical change to the environment; therefore the project will not cause damage
to any scenic resources.
(e) Hazardous Waste Sites. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project
located on a site, which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section
65962.5 of the Government Code.
A12-00113
Project No. 4102
PC/05/08/20 12/KP
Page 3
The proposed project site is not included on any list compiled pursuant to Section
65962.5 of the Government Code.
(f) Historical Resources. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project,
which may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical
resource.
The existing restaurant is located within a building that does not contain any
structures that are considered historic resources or potential historic resources.
No changes to the building or property are proposed as part of the sale of
alcohol. Therefore, neither the existing building nor use will cause a substantial
adverse change in the significance of an historical resource.
SECTION 3: Based on the above findings, Use Permit Case No. UP-3-12-9861 as
described in Sections 1 and 2 above is HEREBY APPROVED, subject to the following
conditions:
1.
This approval is granted for on-site alcohol sales and service (State ABC License Type
47) within an established restaurant as described in the application and any
attachments thereto, and as shown on the plans labeled Case No. UP-3-12-9861 Exhibit "A - C" dated March 30, 2012, and the Operations and Training Plan labeled
Case No. UP-3-12-9861 - Exhibit "D" incorporated herein.
2.
The tenant space and other facilities or features associated with the alcohol beverage
establishment shall be located and maintained substantially as shown on the plot, plan
labeled Case No. UP-3-12-9861 - Exhibit "A," dated March 30,2012.
3.
Prior to obtaining the new State ABC license and/or within 60 days hereof, the applicant
and property owner shall file with the Community Development Department written
acknowledgment of the conditions stated herein on forms provided by the Planning
Division.
4.
Unless the use is inaugurated no later than 12 months after this approval is granted and
is diligently pursued thereafter, this approval will be subject to revocation pursuant to
Chapter 24.570 of the City's Municipal Code. However, if the approved project remains
unchanged (except as allowed under Municipal Code Chapter 24.570), the Community
Development Director may grant one additional 12-month extension of time for the Use
Permit, provided the initial 12-month period has not already expired.
5.
All requirements of any law, ordinance, or regulation of the State, City of San
Buenaventura, and any other governmental entity shall be complied with including
without limitation, the "Operation Standards and Training Requirements" set forth in
Article 4 of Chapter 24.460 of the City's Municipal Code as it may be amended from
time to time.
