Document Description
Conditional Use Permit Application No. 2025-01 authorizing the sale of beer and wine for onsite consumption within a proposed 2,400 square-foot Chipotle Mexican Grill restaurant. The proposed use and location was previously approved as part of a single-story 7,747 square foot commercial building with multiple tenants through Conditional Use Permit Application No. 2022-05. ABC's description of a Type 41 License is as follows: Issued to restaurants. Authorizes the sale of beer and wine for consumption on or off the premises where sold. Distilled spirits may not be on the premises (except brandy, rum, or liqueurs for use solely for cooking purposes). Must operate and maintain the licensed premises as a bona fide eating place. Must maintain suitable kitchen facilities and must make actual and substantial sales of meals for consumption on the premises. Minors are allowed on the premises. This license type is subject to Responsible Beverage Service (RBS) requirements and requires alcohol servers and managers of alcohol servers to be RBS certified. The proposed hours of operation for the restaurant is 10:00 am to 11 :00 pm, 7 days a week. A security system will be installed with interior and exterior cameras to monitor activities. The project is consistent with the 2030 General Plan Community Commercial Planned Land Use and the CC (Central & Community Commercial) zone district.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15332 Class 32 (Infill Development Projects)
Reasons for Exemption
Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects) of the CEQA Guidelines exempts projects that are consistent with the General Plan and zoning; occur within the city limits on a site less than five acres; contain no habitat for endangered species; would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality or water quality; and can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services.
The project site has a Community Commercial Planned Land Use Designation, the purpose of which is to provide commercial services and amenities to the neighboring area. The project occurs in the city limits of Reedley and is on an affected area that is already developed and is less than five acres. Because the project site is in an urban area, there is no habitat for endangered species on the site. The project would be required to comply with general plan policies and mitigation measures addressed in the Reedley General Plan 2030 Program EIR (SCH# 2010031106), and comply with the mitigation measures addressed in the Environmental Assessment No. 2020-15 (SCH# 2022060033) which would determine that the project would not result in any significant effects related to traffic, noise, air quality or water quality. The site is already adequately served by existing water lines, sewer lines, and storm drain lines in Manning Ave.
The proposed project would involve the sale of alcohol within an existing building, which is an exemption characterized under 15332 (Class 32/Infill Development Projects) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines.
