• The existing eating and drinking establishment operates pursuant to Use Permit
No. UP3009 originally approved in December 1982 which allowed an existing
restaurant to add a beer and wine license. In May 1984, Use Permit No. 3009A-1
was approved to expand the existing restaurant and in April 1990, Use Permit No.
3009 A-11 was approved to further expand. Mayur Indian Cuisine operated as of the
May 1984 Use Permit and therefore established for more than 30 years with the
only change in the operation being the aforementioned expansions.
• The use will remain an eating and drinking establishment and the change in ABC
license type will not alter or intensify the existing use. The hours of operation will
remain the same with a closing hour of 11:00 p.m., daily and there will be no
change to the floor plan including the existing net public area (693-square-feet) and
the seating.
• The floor plan of Mayur includes a dining room with tables and chairs with no
separate bar area or counter.
• Mayur currently holds a Type 41 (On Sale Beer and Wine — Eating Place) license
and has requested a change to a Type 47 (On-Sale General — Eating Place)
license.
• Pursuant to Zoning Code Section 20.48.030 (Alcohol Sales) owners or operators
of existing alcohol sales establishments shall be required to amend an existing
permit if there is a change in type of retail liquor license from the Department of
Alcoholic Beverage Control.
• The operational conditions of approval recommended by the Police Department
relative to the sale of alcoholic beverages will ensure compatibility with the
surrounding uses and minimize alcohol related impacts. The project has been
conditioned to ensure the welfare of the surrounding community and that the
eating and drinking establishment does not become a bar or tavern. The
establishment is required to comply with the requirements of the Alcoholic
Beverage Control Department to ensure the safety and welfare of customers and
employees of the establishment. The project has been conditioned so that no
dancing or live entertainment will be permitted on the premises.
• As conditioned, the owners, managers, and employees selling alcohol are
required to undergo and successfully complete a certified training program in
responsible methods and skills for selling alcohol.
• This Minor Use Permit supersedes Use Permit No.UP3009A-11, which will become
null and void should this subject application be approved and exercised.

certainty that there is no possibility that changing the type of retail liquor license at an
existing eating and drinking establishment will have a significant effect on the
environment. Therefore, this activity is not subject to CEQA.

property within 300 feet of the boundaries of the site (excluding intervening rights-of-
way and waterways) including the applicant and posted on the subject property at least

SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS.
In accordance with Section 20.48.030 (Alcohol Sales) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code,
the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth:
Finding:
A. The use is consistent with the purpose and intent of Section 20.48.030 (Alcohol Sales
of the Zoning Code.
Facts in Support of Finding:
In finding that the proposed use is consistent with Section 20.48.030 of the Zoning Code, the
following criteria must be considered:
i. The crime rate in the reporting district and adjacent reporting districts as compared to
other areas in the City.
1. The subject property is located in Reporting District 44 (RD 44). The Part One Crimes
(Part One Crimes are the eight most serious crimes defined by the FBI Uniform Crime
Report — homicide, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny-theft, auto
theft, and arson) crime rate in RD 44 is higher than adjacent Reporting Districts 43, 45,
47 but lower than the City overall.
2. Year to date, zero Part One Crimes have been reported at the subject property.
3. The Police Department has reviewed the proposal, provided operating conditions of
approval, and has no objection to the change in alcoholic beverage license type
proposed.
ii. The numbers of alcohol-related calls for service, crimes, or arrests in the reporting
district and in adjacent reporting districts.
1. The total number of alcohol-related calls for service, crimes, or arrests in RD 44 is
higher than adjacent Reporting Districts 43, 45, and 47 but less than the City overall.
The Police Department has reviewed the proposal and has no objection.
2. Year to date, one call for service representing less than one percent of all calls for
service in the Reporting District have been reported at the subject property. The one
call for service resulted in one arrest for public intoxication.
iii. The proximity of the establishment to residential zoning districts, day care centers,
hospitals, park and recreation facilities, places of worship, schools, other similar uses,
and any uses that attract minors.
1. The site is developed within a small-scale commercial shopping center along East
Coast Highway in Corona Del Mar which is consistent with the General Plan
07-22-2014
g
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2015-0##
Page 3 of 11
designation, Corridor Commercial. The shopping center consists of retail, service, and
eating and drinking establishment uses. The property is not located within close
proximity to any day care centers, hospitals, park and recreation facilities, places of
worship, schools, or similar uses that attract minors. The nature of the Commercial
Corridor area is to provide goods and services including eating and drinking
establishments designed to foster pedestrian activity from the surrounding residential
and commercial neighborhood. The nearest residential uses are behind the shopping
center site which is consistent with the design of the Corona del Mar Commercial
Corridor area. Eating and drinking establishments with incidental alcohol service have
existed at the subject location since 1982 and the proposed change in Alcoholic
Beverage Control license type is not anticipated to alter the operational characteristics
of the use such that it becomes detrimental to the area.
iv. The proximity to other establishments selling alcoholic beverages for either off-site or
on-site consumption.
1. The small-scale shopping center is occupied by one other establishment that sells
alcohol, Pirozzi Restaurant (Type 47). There is no evidence suggesting this use has
been detrimental to surrounding properties or the neighborhood.
V. Whether or not the proposed amendment will resolve any current objectionable
conditions.
1. An eating and drinking establishment with alcohol service has operated at the subject
location since 1982.
2. The project has been reviewed and conditioned to ensure that the purpose and intent
of Section 20.48.030 (Alcohol Sales) of the Zoning Code is maintained and that a
healthy environment for residents and businesses is preserved. The service of alcohol
is intended for the convenience of customers dining at the establishment. Operational
conditions of approval recommended by the Police Department relative to the sale of
alcoholic beverages will ensure compatibility with the surrounding uses and minimize
alcohol related impacts.
3. The existing hours of operation of the establishment will minimize the potential effects
on land use. The establishment closes by 11:00 p.m., daily, which will ensure the use
does not become a late night bar, tavern, or nightclub.
4. The establishment is located within an existing small-scale shopping center which is
developed with other commercial uses. Changing the alcohol beverage control license
will not alter the existing operation, but will complement the food service and provide a
convenience to customers.
In accordance with Section 20.52.020 (Conditional Use Permits and Minor Use Permits) of
the Newport Beach Municipal Code, the following findings and facts in support of such
findings are set forth:

Memorandum
February 11, 2015
TO: Melinda Whelan, Assistant Planner
FROM: Detective Randy Parker
SUBJECT: Mayur Cuisine, 2931 E. Coast Highway,
Use Permit No. UP2015-002 (PA2015-004).
At your request, the Police Department has reviewed the project application for
Mayur Cuisine, located at 2931 E. Coast Highway, Newport Beach. Per the
project description, the applicant is requesting a minor use permit for an existing
restaurant to change their ABC license from a Type 41 (On-Sale Beer and Wine)
to a Type 47 (On-Sale General). The project proposes no other changes and the
existing restaurant operates under existing Use Permit No. 3009A, open daily
and closing no later than 11:00 p.m.
The applicant will apply for a Type 47 (On-Sale General-Eating Place) license
with the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. The license will be
conditioned appropriately to protect the health, safety and welfare of the
community.
I have included a report by Crime Analyst Caroline Staub that provides detailed
statistical information related to calls for service in and around the applicant's
place of business. This report indicates that this location is within an area where
the number of crimes is at least 68% over the average of all reporting districts in
the City. Additionally, this location is also within an RD that is over the Orange
County per capita of ABC licenses.
Applicant History
Mayur Cuisine was established in 1984. The restaurant offers a sophisticated
fine dining experience with effortlessly charming staff, discreet service and
tantalizing food that few can compete with. Mayur is the favorite dining
destination for North Indian Cuisine in Orange County.
Recommendations
The Police Department has no objection to the operation as described by the
applicant.

conditions that would require a special event permit. A special event permit may
be required for any event or promotional activity outside the normal operational
characteristics of the proposed operation.

fee is charged, events that include any form of contract promoters, or any other
activities as specified in the Newport Beach Municipal Code to require such
permits.

In addition, the Police Department has determined that the following conditions
would be appropriate for the Conditional Use Permit for the business:
1. Approval does not permit Mayur Cuisine to operate as a bar, tavern,
cocktail lounge or nightclub as defined by the Municipal Code, unless
the Planning Commission first approves a use permit.
2. Food service from the regular menu must be available to patrons up to
thirty (30) minutes before the scheduled closing time.

gross sales of food during the same period. The licensee shall at all
times maintain records, which reflect separately the gross sales of food
and the gross sales of alcoholic beverages of the licensed business.

basis and shall be made available to the Police Department on
demand.

electronic media broadcasts, including recordings to be broadcasted at
a later time, which include the service of alcoholic beverages, without
