1. The proposed use is permitted within the subject district pursuant to the
provisions of this section and complies with all the applicable provisions of
this title, the goals, and objectives of the Arroyo Grande General Plan,
and the development policies and standards of the City.
Alcoholic beverage sales are an allowed use in the Regional Commercial
(RC) zoning district following approval of a conditional use permit per
Section 16.36.030 of the Municipal Code and while the retail store
currently sells beer and wine, the sale of distilled spirits would be an
intensification of that use requiring approval of a conditional use permit to
ensure compliance with the Municipal Code.
2. The proposed use, would not impair the integrity and character of the
district in which it is to`be established or located.
RESOLUTION NO. 15-2227
PAGE 2
The existing retail store currently sells beer and wine and the
intensification of use associated with alcoholic beverage sales would not
impair the integrity and character of the RC district in light of the stated
purpose of the RC zoning district per Municipal Code Subsection
16.36.020(1) and conditions of approval developed for the project to help
ensure integrity and character are maintained.
3. The site is suitable for the type and intensity of use or development that is
proposed.
The site contains an existing retail business that currently sells beer and
wine and therefore is suitable for the expanded alcoholic beverage sales.
Conditions of approval have been developed for the project to ensure the
expanded alcoholic beverage sales does not result in any adverse
impacts on adjacent land uses.

and services to ensure public health and safety.

and public utilities and services. Therefore, there are adequate provisions
for all utilities and services necessary to ensure public health and safety. .

welfare or materially injurious to properties and improvements in the
