SECTION 1: That the SUBJECT PROPERTY be granted a Conditional Use Permit to allow the
sale of alcoholic beverages in conjunction with a restaurant for Cafe Aeon subject to the condition that the
Conditional Use Permit shall expire and become null and void if the restaurant (Cafe Aeon) closes
(defined by not being operational i.e., serving customers) for a period of three (3) continuous months.
SECTION 2: In granting said Conditional Use Permit, the City Council finds that requirements of
Table 31 of the Zoning Ordinance have been met in that:
1. Any adverse impact of types or volumes of traffic flow not otherwise typical in the zoning
district has been minimized;

other adverse environmental effects of a type or degree not characteristic of permitted uses in
the zoning district, have been appropriately controlled;
3. The proposed use will fit harmoniously with the existing natural or man-made character of its
surroundings, and with permitted uses in the zoning district. The use will not have undue
deleterious effect on the environmental quality, property values, or neighborhood character
already existing in the area or normally associated with permitted uses in the district,
4. The proposed use will not require existing community facilities or services to a degree
disproportionate to that normally expected of permitted uses in the district, nor generate
disproportionate demand for new services or facilities, in such a way as to place undue
burdens upon existing development in the area;
5. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the safety or health of the employees, patrons, or
visitors associated with the use nor of the general public in the vicinity; and
6. The proposed use is in harmony with all other elements of compatibility pertinent to the
Conditional Use and its particular location.

hereby repealed to the extent of such conflict.
