• The proposed development or use is substantially compatible with developments in the same general area and would not be materially detrimental to other properties within the area;
• Granting the conditional use permit will not be materially detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of the public or otherwise injurious to property or improvements within the immediate neighborhood; and • Granting the conditional use permit will not allow a use, density or intensity which is not in accordance with the General Plan designation and any applicable specific plan for the property.
11 Planning Commission Decision
Planning Commission denied the application at the December 11, 2023 meeting on a 4 to 3 vote:
• Inconsistent with General Plan Policy LU-1.1 “mix and balance” of “commercial goods and services” in that an overconcentration would occur and a variety of goods and services would not be available. • Inconsistent with General Plan Policy LU-6.1 “mix of land uses that maintain and improve the City’s long-term fiscal health” in that a concentration of competing, similar businesses would not be fiscally resilient or healthy.
12 Planning Commission Decision
Three Planning Commissioners discussed that the proposed use was:
• Consistent with the retail cannabis provisions of the CMMC; • Compatible with the adjacent commercial district; and • Consistent with the intent of the C2 General Business Zoning District 13 Call for Review
• On December 15, 2023, the Planning Commission decision was called up for City Council review
• Allow the applicant a “fair de novo hearing based upon the relevant issues under the Costa Mesa Municipal Code”

“THE 12” GYM NOISE STUDY
2 • Over the course of the past two calendar years the City has received complaints regarding “excessive noise” emanating from the daily operations of the “The 12“ gym.
• One hundred twenty (120) complaints have been received to date.
• The complaints received were from a resident of “The Palms” mobile home park.
Background
3 220 feet of distance between “The 12” Gym and “The Palms”
4 The Gym’s rear pedestrian door.
5 • Police personnel responded to 105 dispatched calls for service made by the complainant.
• Approximately 40 unannounced exterior site visits of “The 12” gym were conducted by Code Enforcement staff to observe and or to utilize a handheld sound meter. • A scheduled sound measurement was taken from inside the complainant’s residence. • In person conversations with the owners of “The 12” gym to discuss good neighbor policies.
• Site visits to the “The Palms” mobile park to inquire if other residents had similar concerns.
Staff Actions to Determine Existence of a Code
Violation
6 Noise Ordinance:
• “It is unlawful for any person to willfully make or continue, or cause to be made or continued, any loud, unnecessary and unusual noise which disturbs the peace or quiet of any neighborhood”
• Noise Disturbances cannot result in “discomfort or annoyance to any reasonable person of normal sensitiveness residing in the area, regardless of whether the noise level exceeds the specified standards” Qualitative noise criteria, CMMC Section 13-283.
“A reasonable person standard”

• The City has received multiple noise complaints from a residence in the trailer park. • City code personnel performed noise measurements in the same area, prior to my report, and found compliance.

The type of noise meter we use is called an ‘integrating meter’. It can simultaneously record the actual audio taking place, as well as record and calculate the decibel reading- taking hundreds of samples every second.
We were monitoring on site in December, 2023:
a. Monday- Friday: 5 AM- 8 PM.
b. Saturday-Sunday: 7 AM- 3 PM.
c. The monitoring dates were December 3-9, 2023- 7 days.
Over the 7-day period of our monitoring, we recorded more than 4 million noise samples.
In addition, we simultaneously recorded and calculated a total of 6 different measurements.
The type of measurement we specifically used relative to the noise ordinance and relative to the type of environmental noise encountered is called an ‘LAeqT’ measurement. This a common, internationally recognized measurement for assessing environmental noise.

Note: We drove and walked around

The City of Costa Mesa noise ordinance specifies the various levels, times of day, and time periods one can use to analyze local environmental noise. It states:
NOTE: These represent the basic standards applicable for time periods exceeding 15 minutes each hour. Higher levels may be generated for specified shorter time periods.
Don’t exceed:
Condition 1 — RESIDENTIAL EXTERIOR NOISE STANDARDS (50-55 dB(A)) for a cumulative period of more than thirty (30) minutes in any hour; Condition 2 — RESIDENTIAL EXTERIOR NOISE STANDARDS plus five (5) dB(A), (55-60 dB (A)) for a cumulative period of more than fifteen (15) minutes in any hour;
Condition 3 — RESIDENTIAL EXTERIOR NOISE STANDARDS plus ten (10) dB(A), (60-65 dB (A)) for a cumulative period of more than five (5) minutes in any hour;
Condition 4 — RESIDENTIAL EXTERIOR NOISE STANDARDS plus fifteen (15) dB(A), (65-70 dB (A)) for a cumulative period of more than one (1) minute in any hour.
Condition 5 — RESIDENTIAL EXTERIOR NOISE STANDARDS plus twenty (20) dB(A), (70-75 dB (A)) for any period of time.

The proper way to measure these conditions as discussed previously, is to use the LAeqT measurement standard.
For example, Noise Ordinance, Condition 3 (on an earlier slide), the reading would be a ‘LAeq5’ measurement—meaning we are measuring the equivalent (averaged) noise over a 5-minute period, and so forth for all 5 conditions of the noise ordinance.
We recorded our data in various time slots, over 30 minute periods (during the Gym operating hours):
Monday-Friday
-5 AM- 5:30 AM
-7 AM-7:30 AM
-9 AM- 9:30 AM
-11 AM- 11:30 AM

I want to first, discuss my subjective findings:
The environmental noise is typical for a housing area near businesses, and, overall, quiet for a housing area this close to busy streets and businesses.
In my report, I detail noise heard above normal ambient, each monitoring day, for example:
Dec 3rd, 2023 notes:
7:15am - trash pickup
10:52am - noticed music coming from the direction of the gym, but it could have been a car audio system. No louder than the building HVAC units that are running around the parking lot 11-11:15 - guy sitting in his truck with the windows down, halfway between the gym and the trailer park, playing his music fairly loud.
Overall it’s a pretty quiet area. Most prominent ambient noise is coming from motorcycles, HVAC units for businesses in the parking lot. Most noise coming from the direction of 17th street, since that’s the main thoroughfare. Really no noise to speak of from the gym today.
GLOBAL MEDIA AND EVENT TECHNOLOGYSOUND MEDIA FUSION LLC.
Each of the monitoring days, the noise we heard was typical for a mixed commercial/residential area, as detailed in my report.
Typical street noise exists in the area, which adds to the noise field.
On a few occasions, as noted in my report, we did hear some music from the Gym, which was buried in the overall area ambient noise and was non- disturbing and brief- at no time was such noise measurable.
And at no time was the noise above the overall ambient area noise.
GLOBAL MEDIA AND EVENT TECHNOLOGYSOUND MEDIA FUSION LLC.
Summary:
My report contains the detail findings regarding the objective, measured data- we won’t go into the complex detail here.
The area is noise compliant. Occasional spikes in noise were noted (these occasional spikes: airplanes, an occasional loud car, garbage trucks, some Gym noise, etc.) would cause a momentary increase in the average reading at that time, but this is due to a short duration noise spike, rather than a long-term louder noise event, and, exactly as expected.
The data in the report is the detail data as it pertains to the noise ordinance- in other words, for each time period, we present the 30-minute, 15-minute, 5-minute and 1 minute data.
No violations were observed.
