2. That the City Council, after proper notice thereof, duly held a public hearing
on said application as provided by law.
3. That the City Council hereby finds that:
a. The proposed location of the conditional use is in accord with the
objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and the purpose of the PC Planned Community
Zone in which the site is located, which is:
Intended as an area to provide for the opportunity for the design and
development of integrated, master planned projects in areas of the
City which may benefit from special design standards and land uses
not otherwise possible under conventional zoning district regulations.
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 be materially injurious to properties or improvements in
the vicinity in that:
(1) The location of the proposed restaurant is consistent with the
permitted uses of the Cypress General Plan and zoning district in which the
site is located.
(2) Conditions of approval have been imposed to insure the
proposed restaurant's compliance with the Cypress City Code and other
applicable regulations.
(3) The shopping center in which the proposed restaurant would
be located contains sufficient parking to accommodate the use.

the sale of general alcoholic beverages for onsite consumption, it would not
result in a significant or detrimental change in the existing character of the
commercial center.
(5) The proposed restaurant is located at the site of a previous
similar restaurant operation serving general liquor, for which the City has no
complaints on record.
(6) The conditions of approval for the proposed restaurant serving
general liquor are sufficient to restrict and regulate the restaurant use
(including limited hours of operation and periodic inspections) to prevent
impacts on surrounding residential and commercial uses.
c. The proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable
provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.
