The shows would be conducted on four dates in May, four dates in November, and four dates in December. The arts and crafts would be displayed in the sidewalk area between Mervyn's & Albertson's. On April 23, 1984, Councilmember Hegarty appealed the Planning Commission action, requ'~sting that the City Council have the opportunity to review t1e application and make its own decision. The Planning Department has prevLously Administrative Conditional Use P~rmits conduct 5 shows at the same location. rece~ved any complaints or notic~d any prev~ous shows. approved t'^'O for Marietta Lewis to Staff has not problems with these This application raises the broajer issue of outside retail sales activities in general. It is helpful to examine other outdoor activities that have bee~ approved, or denied, in the past in order to put this application in proper perspective. 1) Christmas Tree Lots. The Z~ning Ordinance provides that Christmas tree lots are pernitted only if an Administrative Conditional Use Permit (ACUP) is approved. Such activities have traditionally and customarily been held outdoors. Several applications have been approved by the Planning Staff through the ACUP process. Such permits are typically valid for 1 month. ITEM NO. 5-/ ----------------------------------------------------------------- COPIES TO: 2) Church and Neighborhood Fes:ivals. The Zoning Ordinance provides that a church or neighborhood festival is permitted only if an ACUP is app~oved. The festivals that have been approved, (such as St. Raymond's Church Festival, El Torito Summer Festival, and S:. Patrick's Day Celebration) have typically involved food, games, and exhibit booths. Several carnivals, auto shows, and amusement events have been inclujed in this category (Western Pacific Shows, Classic ':hevy Club, Gad-About-Go- Carts) . 3) Pet vaccination clinics. T~e City Council has determined that a pet vaccinatio, clinic is considered a public service. Individual even:s have been approved through the ACUP process. Series ot events, up to four times a year, have been approved through the Conditional Use Permit process. 4) Street Vendors and Other Outdoor Sales. The Zoning Ordinance provides that plants (live landscaping materials) can be located outdoors only if ~ Conditional Use Permit is approved. All other retail activities must take place within an enclosed building. Th~ Planning Commission and City Council denied a Conditional Use Permit application to sell brass items in a gas statio, parking lot. The resolution adopted by the City C~uncil contains the following basis of denial: 1) The use will not be in conformance with the intent of the Zoning Ordinanc= as the use involves the retail sales of goods ~utside of an enclosed building; 2) The use will give the applicant a competitive edge over other merchants who have rented retail commercial space; 3) The use, if allowed will encourage additional peddlers to sell their crafts at various street corners within the City, resulting in enforcement problems and conflicts with established merchants; 4) The use conflicts with the policy of the City which is to limit retail sales to an enclosed building. It appears that the Christmas tree lots and pet vaccination clinics are not at issue here; rather, it is a policy question of whether, 1) an arts and crafts show can be considered a neighborhood festival or, 2) an arts and crafts show is an outdoor retail sale. As a neighborhood festival, an arts and crafts show could, 1) be appropriately located in a shopping center wr.ere theft and traffic issues could be minimized, 2) be sponsored by a church, neighborhood or civic group or a local merchants's association, 3) be limited to four times in one year, and 4) items to be sold could be limited to handmade, handcrafted arts and crafts items as opposed to manufactured or mass- produced items. As an outdoor retail sale, an arts and crafts show could, 1) conflict with City policy and the intent of the Zoning Ordinance to limit retail sales to an enclosed building, 2) give the applicant a competitive edge over other merchants who have built or leased retail commercial space, 3) lead to theft and traffic control problems, and 4) produce unattractive displays of merchandise. ----------------------------------------------------------------- RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council establish a policy regarding arts and crafts shows and consider them either as, 1) outdoor retail sales, which are prohibited by City policy and the Zoning Ordinance, or 2) neighborhood festivals, with individual events handled throught the ACUP process and multiple events of up to 4 in one year handled through the CUP process. Exhibit "A" is a Resolution which considers the arts and crafts shows as outdoor retail sales, upholds the appeal and denies the application. ExhibLt"B" is a Resolution which considers the arts and crafts shows as a neighborhood festLval and approves the application with modifications. The modifications would limit the events to 4 in one year and the items must be handmade or handcrafted. Staff recommends that the City Ccuncil adopt either Exhibit "A" or Exhibit "B". ----------------------------------------------------------------- RESOLUTION NO. 84-16 APPROVING PA 84-013 FOUNTAINHE1\D MONTESSORI SCHOOL CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO OPERATE AT THE FALLON SCHOOL SITE * * * * PA 84-014 MAHG-ETT ARTS & CRAFTS SHOWS CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT Mr. DeLuca introduced the item, which '.as a request to allow the outside sale of arts and crafts on 12 dates in 1984 at the Dublin Plaza Shopping Center, at 7433 RegionaL Street. Mr. DeLuca explained that the shows would be cond'lcted on four dates in May, four dates in November and four dates in December. The shows were being sponsored by the Dublin Pla~a Merchants Association for the purpose of promoting the tenan~s within the Dublin Plaza Shopping Center. It was noted that st~ff had previously approved two ACUP's for the applicant and had n,)t exprienced any theft or traffic problems. Marietta Lewis and her husband were pr~sent in the audience. Mrs. Lewis explained she has been presenting art shows for the past 14 years, and this was the first time she had to apply for a use permit. She stated that she has not h~d any complaints regarding her shows, she makes sure th: fire lanes are keD~ clear, doorways are not blocked, and t~e displays arQ picked up each night. Mrs. Lewis stated that she usually puts out 3 A-frame signs to advertise her show, and asked the Commission if there would be any problem if she continued with this practice. Mr. DeLuca responded that there is a standard condition for arts & crafts shows and that allows for two 24 sq. ft. signs. Cm. Alexander asked if the shows listed for November and December would be realistically open until 7:00 in the eveni~g. Mrs, Lewis stated it depended upon the weather how late the shows lasted; whether they had to close early and set up the next day or not. Mr. & Mrs. Lewis were in agreement with all the conditions of approval including the removal of all signs each evening. After the close of the public hearing Cm. Mack asked staff what the difference was between this application and the Charles Holland application. Mr. Tong responded that the primary difference was the location; that is, Mr. Holland had proposed to establish his business in the parking lot of a gas station as opposed to a conventional shopping center. Another principal difference was that theft and traffic control problems could be more carefully controlled with the arts and crafts show. Cm. Vonheeder stated that she thought the main concern was the fact that the City didn't want outside sales. Cm. Tenery asked if the art products ~old might be in competition with paintings that might be sold at ~'ards, Mervyns, or crafts that might be sold by these stores Cm. Vonheeder stated that the busines~' in the shopping center support the art shows, in that they draw customers, and thus the whole center benefits. Cm. Alexander felt that the differencEl was that Holland was selling manufactured goods and this request was for handcrafted items. Mr. Tong stated at this point there is no restriction on manufactured goods verses handcrafted goods. Mr. Tong stated from the staff's standpoint the primary difference between this application and the previous request is the location. As noted earlier, Holland had proposed to establish his busi~ess in a parking lot where traffic and theft problems posed a problem. The preseni: application die not have the same problems. Cm. Alexander asked if there would be any conflict with the selling of pumpkins in October and Christmas trees in December. Mr. Tong responded that possibly therE! may be a conflict with Christmas trees depending upon Albert~;on's and Payless. However, with the merchants filing this application staff was presuming that they are taking these sales into account. Cm. Alexander mace the motion, with Cn. Petty's seconc to approve the Conditional Use Permit, wich an additional condition that all signs shall be removed each eve~ing. The motion passed, with C~. Tenery, Alexander, Vonheecer a~d Pett:' voting for the motion and Cm. Mack voting against it.
