CITY OF SAN BERN~DINO - REQUEST WR COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT: Initiation of Development Code Text Amendments
Relative to Gambling Establishments
Mayor and Common Council Meeting
February 17, 1992
REOUEST
That Mayor and Common Council direct staff to look at the issue of
gaming and gambling facilities in the City of San Bernardino and
develop City Code Amendment(s) adequate to protect the public
safety and welfare.
BACKGROUND
CUrrently, the land use classification of Miscellaneous Amusement
and Recreational Services (No. 799A) includes bookies, race book
makers, card rooms, fortune tellers, gambling establishments not
using non-coin operated machines, the teaching of games, lottery
clubs, off-track betting operations, etc. These indoor amusements
and recreational uses are permitted under the staff administrative
process of a Development Permit, Type I (building permit) for uses
in an existing building and a DeveloPment Permit, Type 2 for new
buildings. Chief Robbins has requested that the Planning staff
look into this issue of gambling facilities for the possibility of
prohibiting completely and/or allowing only in limited areas
through the city's Conditional Use Permit process (letter
attached).
FUNDING REOUIREMENTS
It is estimated that it will take approximately 15 hours of staff
time of one associate planner including clerical support for a cost
of $450.00 to process this Development Code Amendment.
RECOMMENDATION
That the Mayor and Common Council direct staff to initiate a
Development Code Amendment relative to where gaming uses should be
permitted, if at all.

It has come to my attention. that "Barbecue Bill.s, Inc." is
attempting to obtain a license for a "card room." The'Develop-
ment Code allows card rooms and other types of gambling under
the general. .category '. of miscellaneous indoor amusement and
recreation s~rvices with only a development permit.
~ . ' .',
The type of. business. ~Ba'rbecue Bills, r 'Inc." plans is '.high
stakes gambling in the 'form of legal .car.d.. games. . . There are a
few similar types 'of businesses in Southern' California. Police
. problems exist at all 'locations. ,. Corporate' members talk of /
possibly buying the Hiltori"Hotel (Hospitality Lane), the Maruko
Hotel on "E" Street or other buildings of that size for this
venture. There is talk of employing as many as 500 people to
run this operation. .
This project has a .very real possibility of being a detriment
to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare
of the city.
I would recommend that this type of use only be allowed with
Conditional Use Permit in limited numbers of land use districts
or not permitted at all.
