CITY OF SAN BERN* ; INO - REQUEST P COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
The application of Jack and Linda Liao ( aka Wen-Hsuing and Lo Tsai Liao )
for a permit to operate the Desert Inn Motel , conforming to San Bernardino
Municipal Code 5 . 82 , was recommended for denial by the Chief of Police. A
hearing regarding the denial was brought before the Police Commission on
November 30 , 1992 .
During the hearing, Jack and Linda Liao were present and represented by
Attorney Sing Chang. The Police Department was represented by Frank L.
Rhemrev , Deputy City Attorney . The Police Commission , after hearing the
testimony and examining the proofs presented , denied the appeal of Jack
and Linda Liao and upheld the decision by the Chief of Police.
During the hearing, the following findings were presented:
1 - Mr. and Mrs . Liao obtained the Desert Inn in 1980 and operated it
approximately 7 years .
2 - In 1987 , the city adopted San Bernardino Municipal Code 5 . 82 , which
requires operator ' s permits .
3 - All current owners , including the Liaos , were grandfathered an opera-
tor' s permit .
4 - On December 8 , 1982 , Jack and Linda Liao had each plead Nolo Contendere
® to charges of Penal Code 664/316 , which is attempting to keep or
keeping a disorderly or assignation house ( a plea of Nolo Contendere
has the same effect as a guilty plea ) .
5 - In July 1992 , Jack and Linda Liao reacquired the property and applied
for an operator ' s permit . During the interview for the operator' s
permit by Community Service Representative R. Harps , Mr. Liao twice
denied ever being arrested or convicted.
6 - From August 1984 to February 1988 , there were 82 incidents to which the
Police Department responded. These incidents included assaults ,
thefts , robberies , burglaries , drugs , stolen property, and prostitu-
tion . All occurred on the business premise of the appellant and were
related to the method and manner the appellant operated his business .
7 - Mr. and Mrs . Liao also own and operate the Seven Crowns Motel in the
city of Orange. Mr. and Mrs . Liao ' s desk clerk at the Seven Crowns
Motel rented a room for one hour to a San Bernardino police officer
after being told the room was for prostitution.
San Bernardino Municipal Code Chapter 5 . 92 says an operator ' s permit will
be issued only upon finding that:
"The applicant has not been convicted of any felony or crime of moral
turpitude or been found in violation of laws or a regulation in a govern-
f, mental quasi-judicial proceeding when the facts underlying such proceeding
or conviction show a nexus between the crime or violation and the par-
ticular business operations or indicate the lack of qualities essential to
protect the public health, safety and welfare in operations under the
permit . "
5-0264
"There were not prior significant arrests or police investigation concern-
ing sexual misconduct , illicit drug transactions , "fencing" activities or
—related crimes occurring on and related to the operation of the business
premises of applicant . "
"The applicant has not knowingly made any false , misleading or fraudulent
statement of fact in the permit application process , or on any document
required by the City in conjunction therewith. "
CONCLUSIONS
It was found that:
Both Mr. Jack Liao and Mrs . Linda Liao have been convicted of a crime of
moral turpitude and they have significant prior arrests or police investi-
gations concerning sexual misconduct , illicit drug transactions and related
crimes in and around the Desert Inn Motel during their ownership and Jack
Liao , in the application process , denied his arrest and conviction. Due to
the previously listed reasons , Jack and Linda Liao do not qualify for an
operator ' s permit .

Appeal of the Police Department's denial of a business
operator's permit for the Desert Inn Motel, 607 W. Fifth
Street, San Bernardino, Jack Liao, owner.
8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
Frank Rhemrev, Deputy City Attorney, appeared on behalf of the
Police Department. Mr. Rhemrev stated the matter was a
relatively simple matter relating to a denial of an operator's
permit. The Commission received both the Department's brief,
as well as the appellant's brief. Mr. Rhemrev called Robin
Harps to testify.
Ms. Harps was sworn in by the recording secretary.
In response to questions by Mr. Rhemrev, Ms. Harps stated the
following:
Her job title is community service representative II, assigned
to the Vice Department. As part of her duties she is assigned
to conduct investigations of applications for operator's
permits. She was assigned the application for Mr. Jack Liao.
Ms. Harps set up an interview with the applicant on 8/4/92.
During that interview, she went through a set of questions
with the applicant. When asked, Mr. Liao replied he had never
been arrested. Ms. Harps went over various businesses Mr.
Liao had, including the 7 Crowns Motel in the City of Orange.
Mr. Liao is also part owner of a trailer park in Hemet. Ms.
Harps went over with Mr. Liao police concerns for the area.
This particular area included narcotics, prostitution, etc.
Mr. Liao was given a copy of Municipal Code 5.82, which
relates to his operator's permit. This spells out the
responsibilities of the applicant, as well as different phases
the Police Department goes through in their investigation.
Ms. Harps contacted the Orange Police Department. Ms. Harps
ran a records check on the applicant and the location. Mr.
Liao had been arrested for keeping a disorderly house in 1984 .
Ms. Harps asked him twice about the prior conviction. Mr.
Liao replied no he had never been arrested both times. Ms.
Harps confronted Mr. Liao with the fact that he had a prior
conviction and she had the documentation to back it up. Ms.
Harps asked again what happened, and he replied that it was
his wife that had been arrested. Mr. Liao did not at anytime
admit to the fact that he had a prior conviction.

Ms. Harps talked to Detective John Moore at the Orange Police
Department. She discussed the fact that Mr. Liao operated the
7 Crowns Motel which is located in Orange. The Orange Police
Department indicated that this particular motel had a higher
rate of calls for service than other motels in their city.
The sergeant sent Ms. Harps a letter regarding what kinds of
calls for service they were. They included suspicious
activities, drunk or drugged adults, marijuana, trespassing,
repossessed vehicles.
Mr. Rhemrev stated the investigative report drafted by Ms.
Harps is a part of the package, as well as the August 7th
letter from Sgt. Bob Green from the Orange Police Department.
Ms. Harps visited the 7 Crowns Motel, accompanied by Detective
Spindler. Ms. Harps stayed in the car, and Detective Spindler
went inside and asked the clerk if he could obtain a room for
an hour, and if so, how much would it be. The clerk said it
would be $20. Ms. Harps did not have any conversation with
the clerk until afterward.
Detective Spindler advised Ms. Harps he was successful in
obtaining a room. He said he went in, told the clerk he had
picked up a hooker, and asked her if she recognized Ms. Harps.
The clerk said no. Detective Spindler repeated to the clerk
a couple of times that he wanted to make sure he wouldn't get
in trouble and just wanted the room for an hour. This took
place on 8/19/92 .
While in the City of Orange, Ms. Harps obtained copies of
reports that had occurred at the 7 Crowns Motel location.
These reports mentioned suspicious activities and drunk or
drugged adults. One incident described someone had broken
into a room. The Police were called to remove them because
they were trespassing. Ms. Harps could not remember the
specifics.
Ms. Harps contacted Lieutenant Jarvis regarding the Desert Inn
in San Bernardino because he is the area commander for the
Desert Inn. Lt. Jarvis wrote a memo in regards to the Desert
Inn and how Mr. Liao conducted the lousiness when he was the
owner previously. Mr. Rhemrev said the memo from Lieutenant
Jarvis is dated August 19, 1992, and is also a part of the
package. Ms. Harps compiled a computer printout of the Desert
Inn's location for the period of 1984 to 1988.
SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION
NOVEMBER 30, 1992

8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
As part of Ms. Harps' investigation, she discovered that on
February 26, 1987, Mr. Liao received a letter from Donald
Burnett, Chief of Police at the time, that the Department had
become aware of prostitution occurring at the Desert Inn
Motel. Mr. Rhemrev stated that letter is also made part of
the packet and is addressed to Jack & Linda Patel.
Ms. Harp does not know why there is a discrepancy between the
names listed on the letter, Patel and Liao. To the best of
her knowledge, Jack & Linda Liao were the owners of the motel
at the date this letter was written, February 26, 1987.
Mr. Liao previously applied for an operator's permit in 1987.
Mr. Liao had to apply for the operator's permit because in
1987 the Municipal Code that called for an operator's permit
was enacted. At that time, anyone operating a business was
grandfathered in. Prior to 1987, there were no operator
permits required for motel operators.
Mr. Liao sold the motel in 1987. The owner of the motel was
possibly Mr. Chan.
Mr. Liao told Ms. Harps that the previous owner had gone
bankrupt so he got the motel back. As a new owner, he had to
apply for an operator's permit. That was the purpose of the
interview/investigation when he applied for the operator's
permit.
In response to questions asked by Sing Chan, the attorney
representing Mr. Liao, Ms. Harps related the following:
Ms. Harps compiled the recommendation on page 3. Ms. Harps
referred to the computer print out and Lt. Jarvis' memo when
compiling her recommendation.
Mr. Chan attempted to question Ms. Harps regarding incidents
listed on the computer printout for the location of the Desert
Inn. Mr. Rhemrev objected stating Sgt. Tull would be able to
answer the questions. Objection was sustained.
It was noted that the computer printouts do not indicate who
caused the police problems.

S. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
Ms. Harps affirmed that when she referred to short-term rental
practice continuing in Mr. Liao's operations, she was
referring to the incident in Orange County at the 7 Crowns
Motel specifically, and there were no other incidents that she
was referring to.
Ms. Harps stated Detective Spindler talked to the clerk. She
did not speak to the clerk until afterwards.
Ms. Harps stated the clerk's English was okay.
Ms. Harps does not remember checking the clerk's
identification. Ms. Harps said the clerk said she had been at
the motel about a month.
Mr. Rhemrev questioned Ms. Harps again, and Ms. Harps
testified to the following:
When she compiled information, she compiled the information
from many sources, computer printouts, actual interviews with
other police departments, an interview with the applicant,
interviews with other members of the San Bernardino Police
Department. Her recommendation is a police recommendation and
not necessarily her recommendation. Ms. Harps' recommendation
is based upon input from a lot of sources.
Detective Robert Spindler was called as a witness to testify.
He was sworn in and related the following in response to
questions by Mr. Rhemrev:
Detective Spindler is a detective assigned to the Vice
Investigations Unit. Detective Spindler assisted Robin Harps
in her investigation of the Desert Inn. He accompanied her to
the 7 Crowns Motel in the City of Orange. Detective Spindler
stated he entered the office area of the motel while Ms. Harps
remained in the car. He contacted the on-duty clerk, asked
her how much it would cost to rent a room for an hour. He was
told that it would be $20. During the course of the
conversation, he mentioned to the clerk that he had a hooker
in the car, that he had just picked her up, and he asked her
if she recognized Ms. Harps. The clerk looked outoide and
then informed him that she did not. She then rented him the
room for $20. Throughout the entire conversation, it was his
impression that he made it quite clear to the clerk the
purposes for which he was renting the room. The conversation
was recorded and is on tape.

Detective Spindler signed a registration card. He then left
the office area, proceeded to the rented room, at which time
Detective John Diaz and the Detective from the city of Orange
entered the office and made contact with the occupants.
At that time, the Orange Police Department took no law
enforcement action. Detective Spindler does not know if
action was taken at a later date.
Detective Spindler did not have any significant conversation
with the clerk after the incident.
It was apparent to Detective Spindler that the clerk was able
to understand the English language.
Detective Spindler did not speak to anyone at the business
aside from the clerk.
Detective Spindler said Linda Liao was at the motel at that
time. At the time the transaction took place, Detective
Spindler believes she was in the back room. She was not in
their immediate presence as Detective Spindler did not see
her.
In response to questions from Mr. Chan, Detective Spindler
stated the following:
He did not ask for the clerk's identification.
The clerk complied with what Detective Spindler was asking her
to do in terms of looking at the occupant of the vehicle. She
readily did this as if she understood completely.
In reviewing the tape recording, Detective Spindler assumed
that she understood the expression "hooker. "
After renting the room, he had no further communication with
the clerk. Mrs. Linda Liao was not within the counter area at
the time he rented the room.
Detective Spindler does not know what the regular room rate is
at the 7 Crowns Motel.

Lt. Stephen Jarvis was sworn in and gave the following
testimony:
Lt. Jarvis was contacted by Robin Harps to assist in the
Desert Inn investigation. Lt. Jarvis stated he is familiar
with the Desert Inn Motel and the general location in which it
is located. Over the years Lt. Jarvis and Mr. Liao have
spoken a number of times.
Lt. Jarvis stated he has been a policeman in the city for 21
years. The last 10 or 12 years have been devoted to the
central portion of the city.
During the period of 1984 Lt. Jarvis was a field sergeant
assigned to the central portion of the city which encompasses
the motel. In 1986, he was transferred to the Narcotics Unit,
and he worked a street task force buy team, predominantly out
of the central portion of the city of San Bernardino. This is
in the same general area that the Desert Inn is located.
Lt. Jarvis drafted a memo at the request of Robin Harps for
this investigation.
Mr. Rhemrev stated this memo is part of the package and is
dated August 19th from Lt. Jarvis to Lt. Snell via the chain
of command regarding the Desert Inn Motel.
Regarding the second paragraph of this memo, officers would
run hookers and vagrants off the street corner, and they would
have keys to the motel . Officers would go to the business on
disturbances, fights, suspected drug sale calls, either in the
rooms or in the parking lots. The rooms were, overall, kept
in poor repair. There was open wiring; on the bottom floor
there was water seeping from the roof; there were open
electrical circuits and switch plates; people using hot
plates, cooking in the rooms. These are all violations of
either state, federal or municipal codes.
In the third paragraph of the memo, Lt. Jarvis states that
Jack Liao allowed rooms to be rented to anyone that had the
cash.
I I N U E S
SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION
NOVEMBER 30, 1992
PAGE -8-
8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
When drafting this memorandum, Lt. Jarvis remembered two
particular incidents. There was a 15 year old runaway from
Rialto. He took some money from his mother or father. He
rented a room for four or five days at the Desert Inn. The
youngster told Lt. Jarvis he paid cash, and he did not have to
show any identification.
When Lt. Jarvis worked narcotics, he spoke with two youngsters
who had a room there. One was 15 and the other was 16 or 17
from Orange County. They allowed officers in the room. The
older of the two had rented the room. They had been there for
over a week. They admitted they were dealing cocaine/crack
out of the room. No identification was shown when they rented
the room. Officers had to verify identification out of Orange
County.
As a uniformed sergeant, one of Lt. Jarvis' duties was to keep
the streets as clear and clean as possible of prostitutes.
During this time, Fifth & F was the central portion of the
problem. A good portion of the time prostitutes had keys for
rooms at the Desert Inn.
Conversations with prostitute revealed that it was common
knowledge that they could get a room for an hour or two at the
Desert Inn.
In paragraph four of Lt. Jarvis' memo he states when Mr. Liao
sold the motel it was clean and the largest portions were
habitable. He is referring to the municipal code, and housing
violations as well as the overall facade of the motel. This
was about the time community-oriented policing came into
being. Government overall, especially the Police Department,
started looking more toward being proactive rather than
reactive. He knows that the Vice Unit was very active in
enforcing codes, and a number of City agencies were pushing to
clean up a number of the motels downtown that were causing
problems.
It is Lt. Jarvis' opinion that the change to the Desert Inn
Motel was due to actions by City government as opposed to Jack
Liao.
Lt. Jarvis' feels very strongly that if Mr. Liao was allowed
to operate the Desert Inn Motel that it would cause problems
in the downtown area.

8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
In response to questions from Mr.Chan, Lt. Jarvis stated the
following:
Lt. Jarvis is familiar with the Desert Inn Motel run by Mr.
Liao. Lt. Jarvis has spoken to Mr. Liao on a number of
occasions. Lt. Jarvis can recall a couple of instances when
he talked to Mr. Liao. As far as a specific day and a time,
Lt. Jarvis cannot recall.
Lt. Jarvis stated he made contact with prostitutes, and they
would run into the lobby of the Desert Inn. Lt. Jarvis would
contact Mr. Liao personally and tell him these people were
hookers, and ask him why they were allowed in the motel
office. Mr. Liao, or whomever was working the desk, would
move them along. Some had rooms at the Desert Inn Motel.
Lt. Jarvis stated he spoke with a man named "Jack" who was
® purported to be the owner. These contacts took place between
1984 through 1987. Lt. Jarvis does not recall a specific
answer from Mr. Liao.
Lt. Jarvis stated the information he received about
prostitutes and runaways was second-hand information.
Mr. Jarvis took no criminal action against Mr. Liao related to
prostitution and runaways.
The Police Department has the option of enforcing municipal
codes. Lt. Jarvis did not write citations. Lt. Jarvis,
however, personally made observations.
Lt. Jarvis conclusion that if Mr. Liao were to operate the
motel, it would cause problems to the downtown area, was based
on the observations in his memo.
Lt. Jarvis, to his knowledge, does not know of any problems at
the Desert Inn Motel since July 1992. It is his opinion that
the motel is in much better shape than it was before.
Sgt. Ernest Tull was sworn in and testified as followed:
Sgt. Tull is the chief designee when it comes to the approval
or denial of business operator's permit. He makes the
recommendations to the chief. Sgt. Tull assigned part of the
investigation to Robin Harps.
SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION
NOVEMBER 30, 1992
PAGE -10-
8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
Sgt. Tull is familiar with the 1987 application Mr. Liao had
obtained for an operator's permit. There was no prior statute
prior to March 1986 which required an operator's permit for
individuals who wanted to operate a motel. When Mr. Liao
applied in 1987, that was the first application Mr. Liao had
ever applied for. That operator's permit, along with letters,
were sent to several hundred business owners that fell under
this requirement. They were asked to fill them out, and they
were told that an investigation would be conducted by the
Police Department, and an operator's permit would be issued on
a first-time basis. They were automatically issued.
When the 1992 application came about, Mr. Liao was no longer
a first-time applicant. He was now a new owner of the motel.
As part of the investigation that was conducted by Robin
Harps, Sgt. Tull had the opportunity to review the computer
printouts which were made part of her file. Those printouts
entail incident reports from 1984 to 1988. The printouts do
not indicate all responses that the police department has made
to that location. The computer data from mid 1987 back is
strictly based on written reports. From mid 1987 to present
date, it is all police contacts at that location.
Mr. Rhemrev stated the incident reports are all made part of
the package, and they date back from 1984 through 1988. There
are approximately 82 police reports that are listed for the
location between that time frame.
Sgt. Tull said it is possible for an officer to respond to the
location and if he/she does not write a report it would not be
counted among the incidents in the computer printout. The
reports consist of field interrogation cards and arrests. If
there is no written paper, they do not show up on the
computer.
Sgt. Tull has reviewed the printout, and it lists numerous
thefts, malicious mischief, stolen vehicles. In 1987 there
was an overdose, some narcotics, prostitution, field
interrogation cards at the location. Officers made contacts
with subjects known to be prostitutes and narcotics activity
is stated as a reason for a stop and the field interview.
All incidents listed in the package are police reports that
® were written or field identification cards.

8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
A background check was contacted on Mr. & Mrs. Liao. The
computer entries reveal that Mrs. Liao was a victim on several
occasions, either for theft or malicious mischief. Mr. Liao
was described as a victim on one occasion. The criminal
history revealed that both of them had a prior arrest in 1983
or 1984 for Penal Code Section, keeping a disorderly house.
These documents were obtained from the court.
Mr. Rhemrev stated the court records related to the prior
conviction from the Municipal Court, County of San Bernardino,
dated August 1983 for Jack.Liao and Linda Liao are part of the
package.
Sgt. Tull provided Commissioners with copies of Penal Code
316, Keeping a Disorderly House. Sgt. Tull stated Keeping a
Disorderly House basically is allowing prostitution to occur
on your premises.
Sgt. Tull has reviewed the court records. Mr. & Mrs. Liao
entered a plea and were represented by Mr. Garrett, an
attorney.
Sgt. Tull has read the report and the recommendation put
together by Ms. Harps.
Sgt. Tull is Ms. Harps' supervisor. In reviewing her
investigative report, he agrees with the Department's
recommendation that the operator's permit should be denied.
Sgt. Tull stated Mr. & Mrs. Liao were both arrested for
allowing prostitution to occur on their property by renting to
them. There was narcotics activity occurring on their
premises. They were told how to clean it up and correct it.
They did not do that. They chose to sell their motel. They
bought another motel out of our community. Police went to
that motel, and they have the same business practices.
SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION
NOVEMBER 30, 1992
PAGE -12-
8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
The motel that is presently the Desert Inn Motel, which they
used to own, is now cleaned up. Calls for services went down
to an extremely low number. This is because police worked
with the new owners. The new owner worked with the police,
and he got rid of the criminal element. Mr. Liao did not take
the motel back by choice. The past owner went out of business
and Mr. Liao had to take it back. Mr. Liao has expressed an
opinion that he does not want this motel. If the City would
buy it for half the price it is worth he would do that. There
is absolutely nothing in this report that would say Mr. Liao
would not continue with the business practices that he did as
a past owner.
In 1988 there was 219 calls for services. In 1989 there was
a 197 calls for service. In 1990 there were 77. In 1991
there was 41. For nine months of 1992 there were only six
calls for service generated at that location. Mr. Liao had
® the motel until 1987. The new owners took over the first part
of 1988.
In response to questions from Mr. Chan, Sgt. Tull related the
following:
Mr. Liao pled no contest in 1983 . They were found guilty and
fined. They, however, were not found guilty by a jury. The
criminal record is still on the docket.
Sgt. Tull is familiar with the motel. Sgt. Tull supervises
Robin Harps, and he totally agreed with her recommendation
that this permit be denied. In reading Lt. Jarvis' memo, he
agrees with it. Sgt. Tull believes that if Mr. Liao was
allowed to run that motel in the downtown area that he would
possibly rent to prostitutes and narcotics users and dealers.
Sgt. Tull stated he believes Mr. Liao knows how prostitutes
and narcotic dealers operate if he has been in the motel
business.
Sgt. Tull is aware that Mr. Liao has been operating the motel,
and it is his recommendation that he not operate it until this
hearing was concluded. Sgt. Tull is not aware of any criminal
activity occurring at the Desert Inn premises since his
application for an operator's permit.

8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
Sgt. Tull again said that if criminal activity was occurring
on his premises the way it was prior to his departure, he
feels confident that a complaint would have been filed.
In response to questions from Mr. Rhemrev, Sgt. Tull stated
the following:
Sgt. Tull contacted Mr. Liao in 1992 after he had made an
application for an operator's permit.
Mr. Liao was made aware by Sgt. Tull that the operator's
permit was denied. Sgt. Tull cited Mr. Liao for operating
without a permit. There were two meetings at the police
station with CSR Harps and Mr. Liao. Sgt. Tull also attended.
Sgt. Tull told Mr. Liao that the Police Department was
probably going to deny the permit and the reasons why. At the
second meeting, Sgt. Tull advised him that it was going to. be
® recommended to the Chief of Police that his permit be denied
and explained why. Once it was signed by the Chief of Police
for denial, Sgt. Tull telephoned Mr. Liao and advised him that
the permit had been denied and advised him of the appeal
procedures through the City Clerk's Office. Time limits were
explained, and he was told that he had to close his business
because he couldn't legally operate it. The time limits on
the appeal procedure had passed.
Mr. Liao was aware that an action was pending and that Sgt.
Tull had initiated an investigation and continued with the
investigation until this matter would come to a conclusion by
virtue of a hearing, by a voluntary closure, or a voluntary
denial of the appeal process. Mr. Liao was aware of the fact
that Sgt. Tull had taken the time to keep on top of this
particular matter.
After the permit was denied, Sgt. Tull visited the motel after
the appeal time had lapsed and issued him a citation for
operating a business without an operator's permit. Mr. Liao
was aware that he was under close scrutiny by the Police
Department.
The recommendations for cleaning up the motel were for any
motel operator, not necessarily Mr. Liao. These
recommendations are not necessarily the law but are proven
methods by which the Department has determined that crime and
prostitution can be cut down in the downtown area or any motel
business.

These are procedures to eliminate criminal activity. They are
general types of concepts that have shown to be successful in
other areas.
Sgt. Tull's review of the 1983 court documents related to a no
contest plea by Mr. & Mrs. Liao indicate that it was a plea on
behalf of Mr. & Mrs. Liao. They had to admit as part of the
process that the activity did occur or has occurred.
In response to a question by Mr. Chan, Sgt. Tull stated the
following:
The computer printout states that Mr. Liao in March 1987 was
a victim of an attempt burglary. Mrs. Liao in 1987 was a
victim of a malicious mischief. In April 1987, she was a
witness to an incident of a malicious mischief. In 1986, she
was a responsible party in a burglary. Their motel was
burglarized. She was the victim of that burglary. In 1986,
she was a victim of a. grand theft. In 1986 she was the victim
of a forgery. In 1986, she was a victim of a petty theft from
a motel room. In December 1986, she was the victim of a
trespassing. Again in 1986, she was the victim of a
trespassing. In 1985, she was the victim of a petty theft.
Aside from their 1983 arrest, Mr. & Mrs. Liao, to Sgt. Tull's
knowledge, were not suspects in any of the crimes listed on
the computer printout.
Robin Harps was recalled as a witness. She was reminded she
was still under oath. She related the following:
After she and Detective Spindler rented a room at the 7 Crowns
Motel, they went back to the lobby. Linda Liao came from a
back room to the front lobby. She spoke briefly with her.
Ms. Harps asked her if she took down I.D. 's of everybody that
registered at the motel . She said yes she did. She pulled
out three registration cards of current tenants that they had.
Of those three, one had an I.D. on it. One had a vehicle
license plate on it, which she said was not the tenant's, it
was a friend of the tenant's, and the third did not have any
type of I. D. listed. At that time, those were the only three
tenants at the motel.

Mr. Rhemrev stated the department had no further witnesses.
He requested that the entire package consisting of the
documents that have been referred to, including the report of
Ms. Harps, the letter from the Orange Police Department, the
court records of the prior convictions, the warning letter
dated 1987, and the incident reports from 1984 to 1988 be
accepted into evidence. Vice Chairman Thomas accepted this as
evidence and called it Exhibit A.
Mr. Jack Liao was sworn in as a witness. Mr. Liao related the
following in response to questions posed by Mr. Chan:
Mr. Liao was born in Taiwan. He came to the United States on
October 22 , 1978, at 44 years of age. Before he immigrated to
the United States, he worked 30 years as a engineer in a
textile factory. He was the factory chief. Mr. Liao was
educated in Taiwan as a textile engineer in college. English
was not taught at the college. He learned English in 1980
through the business after he immigrated to the United States.
Before he immigrated, he could only read English. At the age
of 46 he learned to speak English.
Mrs. Liao immigrated with Mr. Liao. She was a elementary
school teacher for 25 years. After they immigrated to the
United States he worked for a camera shop part-time, worked as
a meat cutter at a small supermarket, and worked in a Japanese
restaurant as a kitchen helper in Little Tokyo.
Mrs. Liao worked eight hours a day in downtown Los Angeles in
a jewelry store factory. Mrs. Liao did not speak any English
prior to immigrating. She immigrated at the age of 41.
Mr. Liao bought the Desert Inn Motel on May 8, 1980 from Mr.
Patel. Prior to this, he had no business experience dealing
with the United States Government either directly or
indirectly.
When Mr. Liao went to Los Angeles, he received a call from a
relative stating his wife had been arrested. He did not know
what was going on so he came back. He went to the Police
Department. At the desk he asked what was going on, that his
wife had been arrested. Mr. Liao identified himself to a desk
employee and was then arrested. Mr. Liao stated he did not
know what was going on.

An attorney took care of the case. This happened almost three
years after they immigrated to the United States. The
attorney did not speak Chinese. Mr. Liao's brother
translated. His brother's English is good. He is an attorney
also. He had his license for one year. Mr. Liao understood
what was going on in the process. The attorney tried to clear
his case, however, he told him that the tape recording was
terrible and suggested negotiation. The attorney then made-a
plea bargain with the District Attorney.. Mr. Liao said he did
not have the income to pay the attorney's fee.
At the time his wife was arrested, Mr. Liao was not at the
motel. He was in Los Angeles. He was arrested upon arrival
at the police station and identifying himself as the husband
of Linda Liao.
Mr. Liao said his wife was arrested because of a language
® problem.
other than this arrest and conviction, Mr. Liao has never been
arrested. Mr. Liao said he is a good citizen and has never
been arrested in Taiwan. No criminal record is required by
the U.S. Embassy in Taiwan if you Want to immigrate.
When Mr. Liao bought the motel, he could not tell what type of
location it was located in. He thought it was a good
location.
At this time, Mr. Liao acknowledges illegal activity in the
downtown area. He said there are homeless, trespassers, and
hookers at the bus stop. Prostitutes beckon to customers.
Mr. Liao states he kicks these people out. He tells them to
get off his property, and they tell him to go back to his
country. At times, they use a rock to strike Mr. Liao. Mr.
Liao states he uses a German shepherd to emphasize his power.
He cannot use a knife or gun to scare people in the office.
Mr. Liao was worried about problems caused by the German
shepherd so he got rid of it.
Mr. Liao stated prostitution is his business enemy. If he
does not control the prostitution, the motel does not have any
potential. Good people will not stay at the motel.
Mr. Liao stated he upgraded the motel. He wanted to change the
quality of tenants staying at the motel. People would stay in
his motel eight to 10 hours.

Mr. Liao said he never received a specific notice received
either in writing or verbal from the police that he was
renting rooms by the hour to prostitutes. Mr. Liao said the
police distributed general circulars to all the motels in the
area.
Mr. Liao sold the motel in 1987. Mr. Liao said he was very
satisfied and proud about his motel and his tenants. He had
tried to sell the motel for five or six years. The motel was
advertised via the newspaper and listings. After two years,
he purchased a 14-unit motel in Orange.
Mr. Liao reacquired the motel from the owner because he
defaulted his payment obligation. Mr. Liao foreclosed. He
lowered the price to $2 , 000 a month. However, the owner
wanted to give the motel back to Mr. Liao.
® Mr. Liao wants to clean up the motel and continue the business
if possible. Mr. Liao intends to stay in San Bernardino as it
is his home town. He has spent nine years in this town.
The 7 Crowns Motel in the City of Orange is managed by his
wife. Before he purchased this motel, his wife had good
health. She now is afflicted with kidney cancer, and is
receiving chemotherapy. She is very ill. The doctor said she
may lose a kidney. She spends 18 hours in bed. Mrs. Liao has
been ill for about one year.
Mr. Liao's daughter-in-law's sister was visiting the 7 Crowns
Motel. Her name is Heidi. She is from Taiwan. She is a
recent high school graduate.
Mr. Liao was shown a photograph, and he identified the photo
as "Heidi. " Mr. Chan provided the Commission with the
original and a copy of Heidi's (Ms. Hui-chih Tseng's) air
ticket. Ms. Hui-chih Tseng is a citizen of the Republic of
China, Taiwan. She came to visit this country under a regular
visitors visa, and she had a return ticket.
Mr. Liao said that the high schools in Taiwan teach about
three or four hours of English a week. Elementary schools do
not teach English. Ms. Tseng had three to four years of
English training, three to four hours a week. Mr. Liao said
he received 16 years of English training but he could not
speak one word when he came to this country as he was scared.
He could only read and understand.

Heidi was traveling with her mother. Her mother does not
speak English.
Since Mr. Liao took over the Desert Inn he goes back to Orange
County one or two times a week.
Mr. Liao's wife called him and told him there was trouble with
Heidi. He was told that the police tried to rent a room for
an hour with a hooker. Mr. Heidi did not understand the term
"hooker. " Heidi kept saying, "I don't know" to the police.
Eventually, she took the money.
When asked why Heidi was behind the counter, Mr. Liao replied
she was taking care of his wife who was sleeping. Heidi was
spending her summer vacation in the United States after
graduation. She stayed in Los Angeles for about four or five
weeks. She stayed at the motel. Heidi was helping at the
motel because Mr. Liao had to come back to the Desert Inn
Motel.
Mr. Liao's supports his son who attends medical school in
Chicago. Mr. Liao's son was not present at the 7 Crowns
Motel. Heidi was alone and helping while Mr. Liao was at the
Desert Inn Motel. Heidi was not paid. She would cook and
give his wife medicine. There was no other employee at the
motel. When Heidi was not at the motel, a friend helps part-
time. Heidi was never paid a wage.
When he operated the Desert Inn Motel, if Mr. Liao had a
suspicion they may not have a valid I.D. and they may be
running a prostitute business in the motel, Mr. Liao refused
to rent a room. In these four months, Mr. Liao has refused a
lot of customers. Out of 10 customers he refused three or
four tenants. He uses the price to refuse. The rate is $22.
Mr. Liao will charge $35. If the person has I.D. he will not
refuse to rent a room. He tells the person that no visitors
will be allowed within 24 hours. Mr. Liao stated he used his
own tactics to keep the prostitutes off his property. He
tells them if they have activity, he cannot allow them to
stay. He will give the money back. When there is a problem,
Mr. Liao called the police.
From 1980 to 1987 the rate of police calls reduced. Mr. Liao
said the officers came down, shook his hand and stated, "Any
problems call me again. " The police never complained that Mr.
Liao called too much.

Mr. Liao said if he was granted the business operator's
license he will cooperate with the City, specifically with
regards to their suggestions to get rid of the prostitute
problem in his second home town.
Mr. Liao said the police are very concerned about prostitution
and he will cooperate.
Seven days ago Mr. Liao called the police in the nighttime
because two people were sitting on a bench outside all day.
A tenant tried to share the room because it was cold. Mr.
Liao told the tenant he could not invite the two people into
the room. If he wanted to invite these people in, the tenant
would have to check out the next day. That person did not
check out so Mr. Liao called the police.
Mr. Liao said he knows that a California driver's license or
® California I.D. is needed. Sgt. Tull tested him with a check
cash I. D. He was told he could not rent to a senior citizen
for a week on a social security card.
Ms. Harps asked if Mr. Liao had been arrested before. He
answered he didn't remember because he only remembered his
wife's arrest. He didn't remember because he was arrested at
the Police Department when he went to go see his wife.
After Ms. Harps showed him the court record, he remembered.
In response to questions from Mr. Rhemrev, Mr. Liao related
the following:
Mr. Liao was not present at the 7 Crowns Motel when CSR Harps
and Detective Spindler rented a room. He was in San
Bernardino.
Mr. Liao does not have a manager at the Desert Inn Motel.
Jackie Patel was there for about two months when he took over.
She takes care of his other business.
In 1980 when he first acquired the motel he had a part-time
manager. The motel was open 24 hours. Mr. Liao lived at the
motel. Mr. Liao would work 18 hours a day at the motel.

Heidi does not speak any English with the exception of yes and
no. Mrs. Liao is sick in bed. Heidi was instructed to let
Mrs. Liao know if any tenant attempted to check into the
motel. Mrs. Liao was sleeping. Heidi did not want to wake up
his wife.
In the last four months, he has refused at least three tenants
at the Desert Inn. Daily, maybe one tenant checks in.
Sometime no tenants check in. The maximum is three tenants.
Refusing one tenant amounts to 50 percent.
During the time he owned the motel from 1980 to 1987, he
refused a lot of tenants. Mrs. Liao asked him how come he was
so severe in his selection of tenants. Mr. Liao said if he
was not selective, he would lose control.
In 1985 business was good. The room rate almost doubled.
Before he 'took over the room rate for one person was $12.72.
Two person rate would be $14 .84 , two beds would cost $16.96.
After 1985, Los Angeles and Orange County rates were $20 so
Mr. Liao's income improved.
Mr. Liao does not recall receiving a letter in February 1986
addressed to Jack & Linda Patel, signed by James Eggert. Mr.
Liao said there were no Patels in the motel. Patel managed
the Super 7 Motel . Mr. Liao employed Mr. Patel for one and a
half months. Patel went to Hemet.
Mr. Liao sold the motel in 1987 because he had been trying to
sell the motel since 1982. Mr. Liao said he was working too
hard and he wanted to retire.
Mr. Liao said he never received any written or oral notice.
He did have conversations with police officers when they would
come to the motel. The police officer was cooperative, and
Mr. Liao would cooperate with the police. Police would try to
help keep the motel in order.
Mr. Liao does not recognize Lt. Jarvis, and to his
recollection he has never spoken with him.
Mr. Liao has had conversations with other police officers.

Mr. Liao said prostitution is his number one enemy in his
business. Mr. Liao said he hates this activity. Mr. Liao has
never knowingly rented to a drug dealer.
From 1980 to 1987 he required identification from tenants 95
percent of the time. At times, he was told that a purse was
stolen or they were robbed so Mr. Liao would rent a room.
Mr. Liao did not harbor any prostitutes in the lobby. If they
were trespassing, he would kick them out.
Mr. Liao does not rent to single ladies 95 percent of the
time.
Mr. Liao has found that the police is more concerned now and
therefore cooperates. Before, he cooperated. In the future,
he wants to cooperate more.
Before 1987 if a social security card was presented by an old
man, he would possibly rent. Sometimes other nice people have
other types of I.D. and he possibly would rent. At this time,
he refused 100 percent of the time.
From 1980 to 1987 he has fully cooperated with the Police
Department.
The only other person who operates the motel is his wife.
There were times when he was not the sole clerk or manager of
the motel. Relatives assisted in operating the motel.
The current room rate at the Desert Inn Motel $22 to $26. The
standard rate in the City of Orange is $22-$32 .
Mr. Liao was arrested and taken to court. Mr. Liao had an
attorney, and he pled no contest to a charge of running a
disorderly house. Mr. & Mrs. Liao paid a $370 fine.
Ms. Beatrice Dorame was sworn in as a witness and related the
following in response to questions by Mr. Chan:
She was once an employee at the Desert Inn Motel. She was
employed from 1981 to 1987. This was during Mr. & Mrs. Liao's
management. She was employed as a housekeeper/maid. She
worked about four or five hours daily, seven days a week.
Three other housekeepers were employed. The motel- had
approximately 25-50 rooms. It is not a huge motel operation.

While she was working there she never saw prostitutes in the
motel. If there were guests that Mr. Liao did not like, he
would chase them out. This was his own decision.
If there was reasonable suspicion, Mr. Liao would not rent out
a room. He would tell them to leave. During the period of
1981 to 1985, police were summoned maybe twice a week. They
were summoned for the purpose of removing guests who wouldn't
leave or for fighting. Usually, Mr. Liao would call the
police for help.
Ms. Dorame now works at the Radisson Hotel as a housekeeper.
Mr. Liao upgraded and bought a lot of things such as bedding,
carpet, and drapes for the motel. This occurred in
approximately 1983 .
Ms. Dorame is not aware of any incidents where Mr. Liao rented
a room to a prostitute or drug dealer.
In response to questions from Mr. Rhemrev, Ms. Dorame related
the following:
She worked at the Desert Inn from 1981 to 1987. She worked
approximately four hours a day. Hours she normally worked
were from approximately 10: 00 a.m. to 3 : 30 or 4 : 00 p.m. She
did not work a swing or midnight shift. Ms. Dorame was never
at the motel during the evening hours.
There were no other employees who were at the front office.
Ms. Dorame recalled seeing Mr. Liao chase a person off his
premises one time. She does not know why he chased this
person off.
Ms. Dorame recalls approximately two police calls a week to
the motel .
Ms. Amy Ko was sworn in as a witness. In response to
questions from Mr. Chan, she related the following:
Ms. Amy owns the Sahara Motel in the City of San Bernardino.
She has known Mr. Liao since 1980.

Among small motel owners, it is a small community. When she
first invested in the motel business, she came to visit Mr.
Liao.
Mr. Liao advised her he made a wrong investment purchasing the
motel.
Ms. Ko's motel is two blocks away from the Desert Inn Motel.
Ms. Ko and Mr. Liao has talked about how difficult it is run
a motel in this area.
Ms. Ko and Mr. Liao have ejected persons from their motels.
When Mr. Liao ejects a tenant, he calls Ms. Ko right away and
tells her not to rent to that person. Mr. Liao describes the
person and the type of car they are driving. Mr. Liao does
not welcome prostitutes and drug dealers.
Ms. Ko states she Mr.. & Mrs. Liao work together. She does not
consider Mr. Liao competition.
Ms. Ko said in 1985 the police and the motel owners did a lot
of work to clean up the downtown streets. From 1985 to 1988
business was very good on Fifth Street. Good people came to
town. Motel owners tried to screen the people.
Ms. Ko worked to control crime problems at the motel. They
both spoke to each other and tried their best to handle their
problems without calling the police.
Compared to other motels, the Desert Inn was doing the same as
other motels.
In response to questions from Mr. Rhemrev, Ms. Ko related the
following:
She never ran the Desert Inn Motel. She never helped Mr. Liao
manage the motel. She never worked in the office. She did
visit Mr. & Mrs. Liao in the office at times. The visits
would last between 30 minutes to one hour.
Ms. Ko's motel is about two blocks away. In 1980, she owned
the Golden Eagle Motel. In 1983 she owned the Sahara Motel.
She has been in the area a long time.

Ms. Ko admitted that there is a prostitution problem in the
downtown area. This cannot be controlled because motel owners
have to determine what is a drug dealer or a prostitute, and
they do not tell the owners.
Ms. Ko believes the Police Department notifies all the motel
owners who the prostitutes or drug dealers are.
Ms. Ko & Mr. Liao both agree that it is a headache to run a
motel. Mr. Liao indicated to Ms. Ko that maybe he made a
wrong investment.
Ms. Ko was not aware that Mr. Liao was trying to sell the
motel.
Mr. Chan advised the Commission that Ms. Jackie Patel appeared
at last month's meeting. If she were here, she would testify
® to the same thing as Ms. Ko. She was employed by Mr. Liao.
She had personal conversation with Ms. Tseng. To her
judgement, Ms. Tseng's English was not good. The employee was
trying to teach Ms. Tseng English.
Mr. Rhemrev asked that the record reflect 1 that he has not had
an opportunity to cross-examine the witness, and the evidence
should be weighed accordingly.
CLOSING ARGUMENTS (Mr. Rhemrev)
Mr. Rhemrev stated it is important to recognize what the
obligations and duties are of the Chief of Police. 5.82.020
of the Code relating to businesses and licenses and a permit
being required for an individual operating a motel dictates to
the police what he can or cannot do. The Chief of Police
shall consider any relevant factual material. However, it
basically states that the Chief of Police shall recommend an
issuance of an operator's permit as required by this chapter
only upon finding that the applicant has not been convicted of
any felony or crime of moral turpitude or has been found in
violation of laws and regulations.
It is quite obvious there is a prior conviction on the record
of Jack Liao as well as his wife. This occurred in 1983,
however, in 1983 that violation was for a very similar
operation, and it was the same motel which we are dealing
with. This is section A. Section B said there were no prior
significant arrests or police investigations.

SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION

8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
CLOSING ARGUMENTS (Mr. Rhemrev)
It is quite apparent from the testimony that has been-
presented by Sgt. Tull, Ms. Harps and Lt. Jarvis that there
was an overabundance of criminal activity that took place at
the Desert Inn Motel during the time that Mr. Liao operated
it. It also requires that the applicant has not knowingly
made any false, misleading or fraudulent statements. It is..
clear that during the conversations with CSR Harps, Mr. Liao
did not admit that he had a prior arrest.
The evidence is overwhelming as to why the application should
be denied. The testimony that was presented on behalf of Mr.
Liao indicating that he ran his business well was from an
individual who was not there during the nighttime hours. An
individual who was not able to see the illegal activity which
takes place during the evening.
Ms. Ko testified as to how he ran his business, yet she was
never there to run his business and strictly was there as a
friend.
Mr. Liao's testimony is obviously in a position to save his
business. There are quite a number of conflicts. The
business is doing well, yet he needs to sell the property.
San Bernardino is his home town, yet he still wants to sell
his property.
He wasn't there at the 7 Crowns Motel. He is willing to allow
a non-English speaking person to run his business. All
important facts which lead to the belief, the opinion, and the
recommendations expressed in the denial of the permit by the
department which would indicate that in light of the
background that it is probable that the instances which have
been testified to would occur again if Mr. Liao would be allow
to operate the hotel. The code is quite clear. The permit
can be issued only upon finding those things previously
mentioned. It is quite evident that those things definitely
do exist, and on that basis, the application and appeal should
be denied.

CLOSING STATEMENT: (Mr. Chan)
The Chief of Police is empowered to consider all relevant-
facts related to the issue of the operator's permit. Mr. Chan
referred the Commission to the recommendation of denial by
police on page 2. It deals with three elements. One it was
a police problem. Secondly was a short-term rental practice
which was continuing in Orange County. The third one was the-
prior conviction.
The testimony clearly shows there was no police calls in which
Mr. or Mrs. Liao were the suspect. All that is shown by the
computer printout report is that they were the victim of the
crime. It would be so unfair, if not illegal, to conclude
that the victim of the crime would turn around and become a
suspect. Now we are finger pointing because they summoned
helped from the police, being the victim of a crime. Now we
want to penalize them by taking away their business permit,
and taking away the way they have to support their lives, and
son who is in medical school.
There was no one single instance in which the police can
prove, when they say there is a police problem, the problem
was caused by the Liaos. The problem was everybody's problem,
your problem and Mr. Chan's problem because we are in a
society with crime. They happened to locate a business in a
bad area. As a law abiding citizen, they should not be
penalized because of that judgement.
As far as short-term rental practices, the records clearly
show that Ms. Tseng did not have proper proficiency in English
to apprehend the word "hooker. " Mr. Chan was raised in Hong
Kong which is a British Colony, and he was under the training
of the English's English. The slang "hooker" if you go to
Hong Kong and talk to any person who speaks reasonable English
they will not understand you. This is an American slang. Mr.
Chan does not know how common American slang is in Taiwan,
Republic of China, which is a predominantly Chinese speaking
community. Without any knowledge to the content of the
message, the police officer could be very explicit but whether
or not she understands is another question. You can be very
explicit to Mr. Chan in French, but he won't understand a
word.

SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION

8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . .
With respect to the conviction, the conviction was about 10
years ago. The conviction was related to a fact which Mr.
Liao wasn't even there. He was convicted because he went to.
the police station and tried to visit the wife and tried to
find out what was going on with his wife.
These are the basis for recommendation on page three. Mr.
Chan referred the Commission to the second piece of evidence,
a memo from Lt. Jarvis. In his own testimony, he admitted
that the conclusion was based on hearsay evidence from the
runaway teenagers and from the street girl. Mr. Chan did not
raise an objection because he had a prior agreement between
counsel not to raise objection to testimony. Mr. Chan had no
chance to cross examine the witness. Mr. Chan would
appreciate if the Commission would weigh the statement from
the street girls and the runaways accordingly. They were not
here testifying under oath.
There was an enormous amount of inconsistencies between the
police officers. In the memo from Lt. Jarvis, it states that
it was clean. Sgt. Tull testified that he did not agree. The
letter sent to Linda & Jack Patel at the Desert Inn Motel. To
Mr. Chan's knowledge he did not receive a copy. Mr. Liao also
did not receive a copy of the letter. Mr. Chan assumes that
if his client had received that copy, he would have given it
to him. Mr. Chan offered that his client did not receive a
copy.
Specifically and conclusively, there was no factual evidence
to prove that Jack Liao knowingly rented rooms to prostitutes
or drug dealers. Let the record reflect that his client did
try very hard to cooperate with the police, regardless what
the police recommendation was. This may be beyond the
requirement of the law. He tried his very best to comply with
the police suggestions.
The other credible witness who is actually the competitor of
his client testified, under oath, that to her knowledge his
client tried to kick out prostitutes and drug dealers. He
tried to work with the City to eliminate criminal activities.

SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION
NOVEMBER 30, 1992
PAGE -28-
8. POLICE COMMISSION. . . . .
To deny a business permit to run their business, in essence
what is being done is driving away business from this city,
and the economy will not pick up. Mr. Chan agrees with the
police that there is a problem. There was no objection to
that. It is a matter of fact. The thing is whether or- not we
should shift the burden to the small business/family type
business man or we just exclude them from this community and
allow big franchises to run the motel business in the city.
We should give them some allowance. Financially, they may not
be able to have all the professional training for their
employees. Language wise they may not be able to manage or
understand English as much as you and Mr. Chan.
If we determine to give them a break, they deserve to continue
their business. They deserve their hard work. They deserve
a business operator's license, and their son deserves the
support from their elderly father. If we take out that
philosophy that we want to exclude the small family type
business, Mr. Chan has nothing to say and nothing to offer
that the business license be denied.
The Police Commission adjourned to executive session to
consider the evidence and come to a conclusion. The appellant
and his attorney were invited to stay until a decision was
reached or they were given the option of leaving and receiving
notification by mail. The Vice Chairman stated there would be
no difference in the status of running the business until they
were notified by mail one way or another. The appellant and
his attorney elected to stay.
The Police Commission reconvened and advised Mr. Liao and his
attorney that they voted to uphold the Chief of Police's
decision not to issue a permit.
Commissioner Boisvert moved that the decision of the Chief of
Police be upheld and that the City Attorney be directed to
prepare the necessary notification, second provided by
Commissioner Nettles. Motion carried.
The Vice Chairman informed Mr. Liao that if he was not
satisfied with the decision of this body, his next step would
be an appeal to the City Council.

From: R. HARPS, CSR II
Subject: OPERATOR'S PERMIT
Date: August 24 , 1992
Copies:
APPLICANT: WEN HSIUNG LIAO
BUSINESS: DESERT INN MOTEL
607 W. 5th St. , SB
INVESTIGATION:
I, CSR Harps, was assigned to investigate the application submitted by Wer
Hsiung (Jack) Liao, for the Desert Inn Motel, located at 607 W. 5th Street,
San Bernardino.
Mr. Liao said he had run the Desert Inn Motel from 5/8/80 to 1/1/88 and then
sold the motel. Mr. Liao said the gentlemen he had sold the motel to hac
recently gone bankrupt, so he got the motel back.
On 8/4/92 , I spoke with the applicant at the San Bernardino Police
Department. When asked if he had ever been arrested Mr. Liao replied no.
Mr. Liao stated he had a similar business, The Seven Crowns Motel, in orange,
as well as part owner of the Florida Trailer Park, located in Hemet.
Mr. Liao stated there would be no other employees at the Desert Inn Motel,
beside himself. Mr. Liao stated the Desert Inn Motel has 51 rooms. He
stated there are homeless in the area, but they do not bother him.
During the interview, I explained police concerns regarding a motel business,
which includes narcotics, prostitution, loitering, etc. He was given a copy
of San Bernardino Municipal Code 5.82, which is in regards to business permit
regulations. Mr. Liao said he would have a friend read it to him.
We also discussed not renting rooms at hourly rates and requiring a
legitimate photo ID, such as California Driver's License, California ID card
or military Ids from each respective customer. We also discussed not renting
rooms to single females who did not have any luggage or any form of
identification. Mr. Liao stated he would keep an eye out for these
® activities. He said he has asked customers to leave when there has been
traffic. Mr. Liao did maintain he could tell good people and may accept
Social Security cards if they were senior citizens. Mr. Liao -kept
maintaining he could tell good people from bad people. Mr. Liao stated he
currently has two tenants at his motel .
When asked again if Mr. Liao had ever been arrested he restated no. I asked
him what had happened back in 1983 , he replied that had been his wife. On
8,/10/83 , PC316, four counts had been filed on Wen Hsiung Liao. On 12/8/83 ,
Mr. Liao had pled nolo contendere to PC664/316, count one. Mr. Liao was on
court probation for two years and counts 2, 3 and 4 , were then dismissed. On
8/10/83 , MSB22613 for the charge of PC316 was filed against Linda Tsai Liao.
On 12/8/83 , she pled nolo contendere to PC664/316. Mrs. Liao was given two
years court probation.
I called the Orange Police Department in regards to The Seven Crowns Motel,
located at 528 E. Lincoln, Orange. I spoke with Det. John Moore, who stated
The Seven Crowns Motel had traditionally been a police problem. Det. Moore
sent me a computer printout of The Seven Crowns Motel, see attached printout.
Sgt. Bob Green; who is in charge of the Vice/Criminal Intelligence/Gang: Unit
of the Orange Police Department also sent a letter in regards to 528 E.
Lincoln, Orange. Sgt. Green indicated that The Seven Crowns Motel has a
higher rate of calls for service than similar businesses in their City. Sgt.
Green indicated that the types of calls responded to, included suspicious
activities, drunk or drugged adults, marijuana violations, trespassing, found
property, repossessed vehicles, warrant services, disturbances, assaults,
possession of stolen property and burglaries. See attached letter.
On 8/19/92 , Det. Spindler, Det. Diaz and I went to Orange Police Department
-- where we spoke with Det. Moore and Sgt. Green. I obtained copies of the
reports made at The Seven Crowns Motel during the time frame Jack Liao was
listed as owning the location. Sgt. Green indicated that they use a red
light abatement process for problem motels. He indicated this included
information regarding the frequency of arrests, that there is community
concern regarding the motel and that they can show the management knows the
purpose of the rental of the rooms, i.e. , short time -rentals.
While in Orange, Det. Spindler and I were going to go to The Seven Crowns
Motel to determine if he could obtain a room for a short time. Det. Spindler
and I pulled into The Seven Crowns Motel parking lot and Det. Spindler went
inside while I stayed in the vehicle. Det. Spindler asked the desk clerk if
it would be okay for him to obtain a room for an hour or so and if so, how
much would it cost. He was informed that the room would be $20. Det.
Spindler then informed the motel clerk that I was a hooker and wondered if
she had seen me before. The desk clerk said she did not recognize me. Det.
Spindler continued saying he wanted to make sure there would not be a problem
and he filled out the registration card. He gave the desk clerk $20 and she
gave him the room key to room #201. The conversation between Det. Spindler
and the motel clerk was tape recorded and the recording will be maintained at
the San Bernardino Police Department, Vice Office.
Det. Spindler and I then went to room #201, which was on the 2nd floor, while
Det. Diaz and Det. Moore, went into the motel office. The motel room was
observed to be a standard economy type motel room. Det. Diaz and Det. Moore,
while in the motel office, had the motel clerk write her name on the back of
the registration card. Her name was Heidi Tseng, with a date of birth of
5/10/72 . There was a TV playing in the back room and Linda Liao came from
that direction to the front office. Linda said Heidi was visiting from
Chicago and had been helping for approximately one month. I asked Linda Liao
if she had obtained Id's for her guests and she replied, "Yes. " However, the
three registration cards of her current tenants showed one with a California
driver's license number on it, one with a car license on it, which she said
was not the tenants, but a friend of his and one had no type of
identification on it. Linda Liao said she was Jack Liao's wife.
I ran a drivers license and warrant check on the applicant and he did not
have any outstanding warrants. I also obtained a location inquiry response
for the Desert Inn Motel, located at 607 W. 5th Street. See attached
printout.
Area Commander, Lt. Jarvis was contacted in regards to the operator's permit
application. Lt. Jarvis wrote a memo in regards to Mr. Liao's previous stint
as the business owner of 607 W. 5th Street. Lt. Jarvis declared at that time
the Desert Inn Motel had numerous code violations and would rent to anyone
fully aware of their actions. Lt. Jarvis continued saying when Mr. Liao sold
the Desert Inn, it was better, but it was due to stringent enforcement, not
to Mr. Liao. See attached memo.
San Bernardino Municipal Code 5.82 relates to business permit regulations.
Under Section 5.82 .050, the San Bernardino Municipal Code reads "The Chief of
Police shall consider any relevant factual material relating to such
applicant and shall recommend the issuance of an operator's permit, as
required by this chapter only upon finding that:
A. The applicant has not been convicted of any felony or crime of moral
turpitude or been found in violation of laws or a regulations in a
criminal quasi-judicial preceding when the facts underlying such
proceedings or conviction show a nexus between the crime or violation
and the particular business operations or indicate the lack of qualities
essential to protect the public health, safety and welfare in operations
under the permit;
B. There were not prior significant arrests or police investigations
concerning sexual misconduct, illicit drug transactions, "fencing"
activities or related crimes occurring on and related to the operation
of the business premises of applicant. "
POLICE DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION:
The Desert Inn Motel, when Mr. Liao previously owned it was a police problem.
Some of these practices, such as short term rental are continuing at the
motel located in orange, which Mr. Liao currently owns. Mr. Liao also does
not meet the criteria listed in San Bernardino Municipal Code 5.82. Due to
these previously listed reasons, the San Bernardino Police Department
recommends denial of the application submitted by Wen Hsiung Liao for the
Desert Inn Motel, 607 W. 5th Street, San Bernardino.

Interoffice Memorandum
To: Lt. D. Snell
Via Chain of Command
From: Lt. S. Jarvis
Subject: Desert Inn Motel
Date: August 19, 1992
Copies:
I was recently polled regarding the Desert Inn Motel at 607 W. 5th St. and
the previous owner/operator Wen Liao.
It has been my experience that Mr. Liao allowed his buildings to fall into
disrepair. A large number of the rooms that were rented were uninhabitable.
These substandard rooms were rented out on a regular basis. On inspections
numerous rooms were found to have electrical "hot plates" in use with the
occupants advising that the owner allowed them to cook in their room.
Mr. Liao rented rooms to anyone that had the cash. He had been advised a
number of times that he was renting to prostitutes and this did not alter his
rental pattern. Mr. Liao rented to the same prostitutes continually, fully
aware of their actions. Mr. Liao also rented rooms by the hour to
prostitutes.
When Mr. Liao sold the Desert Inn it was "clean" and the largest portions
were habitable. This was not due to Mr. Liao but to stringent enforcement
by the San Bernardino Police Department and other city departments.
Due to past practices by Mr. Liao it is my opinion that if he opens the
Desert Inn Motel that it will cause problems in the downtown area.

POLICE DEPARTMENT BENJAMIN GONZA
CHIEF of FOUCE
June 11 , 1982
Lo Tsai Liao , Owner
Desert Inn Motel
607 W. Sth Street
San Bernardino , CA
An examination of public documents reveals that you are the
owner/manager of the property located at 607 West Sth Street,
, San Bernardino , wherein the business of the Desert- Inn.
Motel is operating.
As you may be aware, the area surrounding your motel has been a
district of high incidents involving prostitution activity.
Some prostitutes are transitory and usually rent motel rooms for
the purpose of prostitution. This kind of activity is not only
illegal by the prostitutes, but it is also illegal for those
persons in control of the motels to allow prostitution or other
illegal activity to take place at the motel.
Insofar, as we are aware, presently the premises of the
Motel does not constitute a police problem. However, due to .;-- -
intermittent influx of prostitutes and their pimps, _there°could:�
be a possibility of them wanting to rent rooms from you for this
purpose.
In an effort to prevent prostitution activity occurring on your
premises, and if you wish to discuss reasonable steps necessary
to address this public nuisance, officers of the San -Bernardino
Vice Division at 383-5011, will be available to talk wit ti�
Very truly yours, -
,.
