CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT: Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity for a Type 47 Liquor License
for an existing sports bar/pool room/restaurant located at 194 West Club Center
Drive, No. A
Mayor and Common Council Meeting of January 7, 2002
OWNER! APPLICANT
Curt D. Goucher
194 West Club Center Drive, No. A
San Bernardino, CA 92408
(909) 824-2406
REQUEST
The applicant is requesting a determination of public convenience or necessity to establish a
Type 47 license (On-sale General- Eating Place) for an existing sports bar/pool room/restaurant
with an existing Type 41 license (On-sale Beer & Wine - Eating Place) located at 194 West
Club Center Drive, No. A, in the CR-3, Commercial Regional, land use designation.
BACKGROUND
The Club has an approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP No. 92-19) to establish a pool hall with
live entertainment and on-site sales of alcoholic beverages. Presently, the Club has requested an
upgrade to the ABC license from a Type 41 (On-sale Beer & Wine - Eating Place) to a Type 47
(On-sale General- Eating Place). The Club is approximately 13,800 square feet in size and
offers pool games, entertainment, and food services to include hamburgers, hot dogs, french
fries, hot/cold sandwiches, pizza and chips. The owner believes that a Type 47 would enhance
and allow the Club to attract more customers and increase business by expanding their services.
The Type 47 license will allow the Club to sell liquor in addition to beer and wine. The business
is open 7 days a week, Monday tbm Sunday from 12:00 noon to 2:00 am.
The public convenience or necessity determination is required because 12 on-sale licenses have
already been issued in Census Tract 71.02. More than seven (7) off-sale licenses requires that
the City Council make a determination of public convenience or necessity to establish a Type 47
license. If approved, this license would be the 13th in the Census Tract.
POLICE DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION
In a letter dated November 8, 2001, the Police Department indicated no opposition to the ABC
application and recommended approval provided that the applicant adheres to the Police listed
conditions. Planning and Police conditions are included in Attachment C & D.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None. The applicant submitted an application and the applicable processing fee.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Mayor and Common Council determine that the public convenience
or necessity is served and direct the Planning Division to prepare a letter for the Department of
Alcoholic Beverage Control for a Type 47 license for 194 West Club Center Drive, No. A

Re: Public Convenience & Necessity Letter for The Club
Dear Mr. Brown;
I am forwarding a letter outlining the Public Convenience and Necessity of our
establishment, including the diffirrence and uniqueness of the products and services we
are offering, to the inunediate community.
This establishment will offer local business employees a place to go for lunch and will
also have the availability of a private room for luncheons and business meetings. We will
have an on-site private teacher for those patrons interested in learning the art of pool and
darts. We house 23 of the best pool tables made, which will enable us to host pool
tournaments as well as dart tournaments. We will be offering food and live entertainment
ranging from karaoke to jazz with an area for dancing. This music will appeal to all
ethnic backgrounds and will be geared to those from the mid-thirties and baby-boomers
to senior adults. Our food menu will include; hamburgers, hot dogs, french fries,
poppers, fried zucchini/onion rings, hot/cold sandwiches, pizza and chips.
Many of those within the establishment (The Club) are of the baby-boomer generation
and see the necessity of providing not only those of us within our age group a safe and
enjoyable place to gather and socialize, but also see this same need expressed by our
aging parents and are ready to meet that demand. Special attention has been paid to
providing the handicapped with the necessary accommodations as required by the city for
their enjoyment as well. The local businesses and what they have to offer the
surrounding community is of utmost concern to The Club. We want to work in
conjunction with the local government to be a positive addition to the area and, hopefully,
will be part of a continuing effort by local businesses and the city to make San
Bernardino a county to be proud of.
In addition to the above information that you have asked for I've included a copy our
"Proof of Publication". Should you have a need for any further information, please don't
hesitate to call me at (909) 824-2406. Thank you in advance for your attention to this
matter.
Sincerely,
Curt D. Goucher
