parking lot be for patrons only? Will there be traffic
control to direct cars into and out of the parking.area so
that traffic will not impact Ernestine Avenue? What about
parking on the neighborhood street? Can the alley be blocked
off to prevent traffic onto Ernestine Avenue? Block the
alley and any entrances leading from the parking lot onto
Ernestine Avenue. Will there be an environmental assessment
to determine the traffic impact along Martin Luther King,
Jr. Boulevard and Ernestine Avenue? How do you prevent gang

the capacity of the skating rink? What are the proposed i
hours of operation? What about weekend hours of operations?

at the rink? Saturday and Sunday, in the afternoon, will
there be skating sessions for small children only, and, or I

� � �
ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSION: •
1. Consistency with General Plan
The proposed land use is consistent with the existing zoning
classification of C-2 (Light Commercial) and the General
Plan designation of Commercial, therefore, granting
Conditional Use Permit No. 133 will not adversely affect
the General Plan.
2. Site Suitabilitv
The property is adequate in size and shape to accommodate
the proposed development relative to structures, parkinq,
walls, fences, landscaping, driveways and other development
, features required by the Zoning Ordinance. The existing
uses i.e. restaurant and lounge, and the proposed use
combines to require 172 parking spaces. The project
provides 172 parking spaces, in conformance with the
requirements of the city.
Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard is a major arterial and is
well suited to carry the quantity of traffic the proposed
developmenE would generate. The General Plan allows for a
maximum daily capacity of traffic at 40,000 vehicles per day
(ADT) at Bullis Road and Martin Luther King Boulevard. The -
ADT along this arterial is 14,890 vehicles per day.
Approval of this proposal will not exceed the maximum ADT
for this arterial. Ernestine Avenue is classified under the
General Plan as a local street whose primary function is to
provide direct access to abutting properties. With the
proposed closure of access onto Ernestine Avenue from the
subject site, the proposal will have little impact to the
local street.
/ ��CS
A. Traffic and Parking. (Response to Section 9)
1) Will the parking lot be for patrons only?
The parking lot will serve patrons and employees
of the existing restaurant and the roller rink
only, and parking on site is adequate to meet this
need.
2) Will there be traffic control to direct cars into
and out of the parking area so that traffic will
not impact Ernestine Avenue?
The applicant will be required to close all access
from the subject property onto Ernestine Avenue.
3) What about parking on the neighborhood street?
It is suggested by the Parks and Recreation
Department that limited parking be established for
Ernestine Avenue, and a"no parking" zone be
designated in front of a portion of the restaurant
and the proposed project in order to prevent
parking congestion along Ernestine Avenue. The
City will initiate a no parking zone along
building frontage of the projects. I
4) Can the alley be blocked off to prevent traffic i
onto Ernestine Avenue? i
The applicant will be required to request a �
vacation of the existing alley and block all �
access to Ernestine Avenue.

The applicant indicates that the
program remains to be established.
7) Will their be adult night skating on the weekend?
The applicant indicates that this aspect of the
programming has not been established.
3. Compatibilitv
The proposed development is surrounded by a mixture of
commercial developments, public facilities, and residential
uses. The community will benefit with the addition of a
roller rink. However, the neighborhood expressed concerns
regarding increase traffic, noise, and parking congestion
along Ernestine Avenue and other nearby neighborhood street.
With respect to noise, Ordinance No. 1300 prohibits loud and ,
unruly assemblage and is in effect.
In addition, the City recently sent a notice to all
residents regarding loud music and loud parties under
penalty of a fine. Neighborhood security is also an issue
raised by the neighborhood. These issues must be mitigated _
by the,applicant and through conditions of approval by the
City. Ultimately the Conditional Use Permit can be revoked
if the applicant fails to comply with the conditions of
approval.
The City is contemplating a reevaluation of the land use and
development within the Civic Center. The applicant is
proposing to redevelop the facility in connection with
property improvements coordinated with the City. The
proposed roller rink would be located within the .Civic
Center and the boundaries of Redevelopment Project Area
nA n
The proposal for a roller rink is commensurate with
redevelopment of the area. With the exception of the
restaurant, which has been in operation since 1991, the
building has been vacant for approximately six years, and
was used briefly as a swap meet facility in 1987.
i
4. Compliance with Development Standards
The proposal conforms to the development standards required I
by the Zoning Ordinance with respect to setbacks; lot �
coverage; building heights; parking; and, amusement arcades. �
The proposal carries out a number of goals from some of the �
Elements of the General Plan. They are as follows: '
City Concept Goal 1: The potential of creating and �
establishing a high quality of life for City residents. I
Goal 2: Provides for the strengthening and expanding ,
of existing Lynwood businesses under the Economic �
Development Element of the General Plan. �
Land Ose Goal 5: The encouragement of the development '
of new commercial and retail uses in locations where they �
can,most efficiently provide Lynwobd residents with needed '
products, services, and employment opportunities. �

5. Conditions o�gproval •
The improvements as proposed, subject to the conditions
recommended by the Community Development Department, will
not have a negative effect on the values of the surrounding '
properties or interfere with or endanger the public health,
safety or welfare.
6. Benefits to Communitv
The proposal will facilitate upgrading the commercial use
of the property and support the commercial designation of
the General Plan.

project could not have a significant effect on the
environment. Therefore, a Negative Declaration has been
prepared and is on file in the Community Development
Department office and in the office of the City Clerk.
