" Mr. Paul Yen June 19, 1995 ~. Page 3 8. Appellant proposes, in conjunction with the expanded use, to sell alcoholic beverages for consumption on-site (Plan of Operation, page 5). 9. Under Appellant's current operation, Appe!lant's on-site parking facilities have been frequented by prostitutes and, from time to time, have become unsightly from debris and general lack of upkeep. 10. Patrons of the Property and/or of commercial establishments in the vicinity thereof, frequently use the interior, residential streets for vehicular access to Woodside Road. Such use burdens the residential nature of said interior streets and the residential uses appurtenant thereto. 1!. The use proposed by Appellant would extend the patronage of Appellant's Property into early hours of the morning, inconsistent with the adjoining commercial and residential property uses. Said proposed use would increase the intensity of use intensively of the on-site parking facility and, most probably, would require Appellant to obtain permission to use adjoining properties for parking purposes. Said more intensive and expanded parking use would necessarily increase sound levels associated with patrons arriving at, and departing from, the Property, all during hours inconsistent, and incompatible, with surrounding residential property uses. 12. The proposed hours of operation, together with consumption of alcoholic beverages on-site, would result in noise levels and behavior inconsistent with the residential and commercial uses of surrounding and neighboring properties. The increased hours of operation and increased patronage, together with consumption of alcohol, would also attract prostitution and drug trafficking known to occur in the area, with detrimental effect upon the existing commercial and residential property uses adjacent to, and in the vicinity of the Property. 13. By reason of the foregoing, the proposed expanded use would be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort, and general welfare of persons residing and working in the neighborhood of the Property and would be detrimental and injurious to property and property improvements in the neighborhood of the Property and to the general welfare of the City (Zon.Ord. § 42.3).
