SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION

The Applicant is requesting a conditional use permit to allow for the sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption from the existing San Leandro Chevron Station convenience store at 2180 Orchard Avenue. Section 4-1644 of the Zoning Code requires that businesses engaged in the concurrent sale of motor vehicle fuel and alcoholic beverages obtain a conditional use permit. The site is zoned IL(S) Industrial Limited District and is in a Special Review Overlay District. The existing conditional use permits, CU-84-15, PLN2003-00109, and PLN2014-0002 allow for the existing gas station and convenience store to be located at the subject property.

Staff believes that the proposed sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption from the San Leandro Chevron Station convenience store will be compatible with the nearby commercial and industrial uses around Orchard Avenue and Marina Boulevard. With the implementation of the recommended Conditions of Approval, the applicant/property owner will operate and maintain the business in an orderly manner, without detriment or burden to the immediate area, as it relates to the proposed use. Staff recommends that the Board of Zoning Adjustments A) adopt the California Environmental Quality Act categorical exemption, B) adopt the recommended Findings of Fact, and C) approve PLN17-0029 subject to the attached recommended Conditions of Approval.
