Upgrade of ABC license type at existing restaurant (Case No. 2505-20)

The City of Long Beach, California, is processing Case No. 2505-20 to grant a Conditional Use Permit and a Local Coastal Development Permit for a restaurant located at 4702 East 2nd Street. The primary objective of this action is to allow the establishment, associated with HJM Sunrise Plaza LLC and Zarape Cocina & Cantina, to upgrade its California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control license from a Type 41 On-Sale Beer and Wine Eating Place license to a Type 47 On-Sale General Eating Place license. The project is categorized as a forecast under NAICS code 722410 and has been issued a CEQA Notice of Exemption (CE-25-138) under Section 15301 for existing facilities. This exemption is granted because the project involves no new floor area, the project area is below 5 acres, and the request remains consistent with local zoning regulations and General Plan policies. The process is being managed by Planner Miguel Samayoa for the City of Long Beach.
