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- 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. Attachments are available in the City Clerk' s Office.

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. ir M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -3- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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 mousiness 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. E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -4- 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. i M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -5- 8 . 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. I r 7 M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -6- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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 . M I NUT E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -7- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -9- 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. jf _...-.._. 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. i M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -11- 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. i M U T E S 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 occsrring at the Desert Inn premises since his application for an operator's permit. I i M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -13- 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 i 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. M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -14- 8 . NEW 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. i 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 . r I I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -15- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -16- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. 1 I N U T S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -17- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. I M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -18- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. 3 S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -19- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -20- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . 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. i SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -21- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . ! 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. I 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. M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -22- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30 , 1992 PAGE -23- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -24- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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 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. Y 1 S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -25- 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. I 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. i 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. i M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -26- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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 i 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. I 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. S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -27- 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 i 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. I 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. I 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.

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 had 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 polo 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 it 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 0 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 Departuent recommends denial of the application submitted by Wen Hsiung Liao for the Desert Inn Motel, 607 W. 5th Street, San Bernardino. City Of San Bernardino San Bernardino Police Department Interof f ice 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. �:2 Tn •��� f f _ '.�)'+,+'.. - T.R.!+'.. - 1t co X150/1 N\ ' a0 ° z O to O H OU O Ol wH -"U zW OK HTE-4000 H • O ro :�,.:.. u �uuuwMu) Ln i ?

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.

Mr. WEN-HSIUNG LIAO is the operator of the Desert Inn Motel . 17 He bought the business in 1980 . During all these past years of 18 operation, Mr. Liao had no problem securing the business permit. 19 2 . In early 1988, he sold the motel and became the trustee in ,)4.L. the business . In July 1992 , the owner of the motel went 21 bankrupt. Mr. Liao, as trustee, re-acquired the business in 22 foreclosure. Mr. Liao re-applied for the business permit; his 23 application was denied on August 25, 1992 . 24 3 . Mr. Liao appealed the decision of the Chief of Police of 25 denial of his application for business permit to the Police 26 Commission on November 30, 1992 . The Police Chief 's decision was 27 28 Pagel upheld by the Police Commission. 1 4 . Pursuant to San Bernardino Municipal Code Section 5 . 82 . 210 2 and 5 . 82 . 240, Mr. Liao has timely filed an appeal to the City 3 Council against the Police Commission's decision to uphold the 4 denial of his application of business permit. 5 GROUNDS OF DENIAL ARE BIASED IMPROPER AND INSUFFICIENT 6 In the Police Chief 's decision in denying Mr. Liao the 7 business permit, it was alleged that Mr. Liao had a prior 8 conviction, that Mr. Liao had made false statements , that Mr. 9 Liao permitted prostitution activity in his other motel . 10 However, the Police Chief failed to provide sufficient findings 11 of facts and law to support said allegations . The decision of 12 denial is therefore arbitrary and inconsistent with the law and 13 public policy. 14 I . SBMC 5 . 82 . 050 (A) - Prior Conviction 15 i The court records show that in 1983 , Mr. and Mrs . Liao 16 pled bargain to charges under P.C. 664/316 and subject to 17 probation for two years . There was no finding of facts to prove 18 that Mr. Liao or his wife had committed any crime relating to the 19 operation of the motel business . During the probation and in 20 subsequent years, Mr. Liao and his wife have remained law-abiding 21 residents and have not been found in violation of any law 22 relating to the operation of the motel . 23 In fact, as stated above, the police was satisfied with 24 Mr. Liao's operation and granted the renewal of business permit 25 in 1987 . 26 II . SBMC 5 . 82 . 050 (B) - Prior Significant Arrests 27 28 Paget i The so-called "prior significant arrests " made on the 1 premises of Mr. Liao's motel, as alleged by Police Chief, were 2 Mr. Liao 's calls for police assistance. In fact, in some 3 instances of these crimes , Mr. or Mrs . Liao was the victim. It 4 is against public justice that in an orderly and democratic 5 country that the Police punishes and blames citizens who report 6 crime when it itself has failed to protect small businesses and 7 ordinary citizens from the threat of criminal activities . 8 III . SBMC 5 . 82 . 050(D) - False Statements 9 The fact that Mr. Liao failed to recall the prior 10 charges which occurred nine years ago does not warrant a finding 11 that Mr. Liao has "knowingly" made any false, misleading or 12 fraudulent statement of facts . 13 It is not uncommon that an ordinary citizen may fail to 14 respond accurately and immediately when being interviewed by a 15 law enforcement officer, in particular, when the incidents being 16 asked occurred over nine years ago. 17 At the time of the interview, Mr. Liao was emotionally 18 unstable and frustrated because of the serious illness of his 19 wife. His failure to recall the prior charges was unintentional . 20 IV. Investigation of Seven Crowns Motel 21 Mr. Liao has been operating the Seven Crowns Motel for 22 nine years . He has never been charged for any violations . 23 The findings of the police investigation by Officers 24 Harps and Spindler at the motel do not reflect the truth. The 25 police officers had the opportunity to, but chose not to, make 26 inquiries to Mrs . Liao who was operating the motel at the time of 27 28 Page3 nvestigation. Harps alleged that Ms . Heidi Tseng, who was a 1 2 isiting relative of Mr. Liao from Taiwan, knowingly rented him a 3 room after Det. Spindler told Ms . Tseng that Harps was a 4 hooker. " Taiwan is a Chinese-speaking country, where the word 5 'hooker" is not commonly used to mean "prostitute. " Ms . Tseng 6 id not understand Harp's question. Furthermore, Ms . Tseng was 7 of an employee in the motel, nor did she know anything about 8 peration of the motel . CONCLUSION 9 10 From 1980 till 1987 , Mr. Liao had no problem in 11 obtaining the permit in operating the motel . Since Mr. Liao re- 12 lolice) ,cquired the motel in July 1992 , according to Lt. Jarvis 's 13 estimony (see item 8, paragraph 9, page 9 of the Minutes of the 14 "the motel is in much better shape than it was before. " he Chief of Police has failed to provide any fact or evidence to 15 16 how any change of circumstances which led to his decision to 17 deny Mr. Liao's application for business permit. Small business 18 owners like Mr. Liao have contributed to the community. At this 19 ime of weak economy, the community, residents and small 20 businesses need to work together to rebuild the community. It is 21 of only against law but also against public interest that the olice attempts to shut down the small business without a legally 22 23 'ustified reason. The Police Commission's decision in upholding he Police ' s denial should therefore be reversed and Mr. Liao's 24 pplication of business permit be granted. 25 26 Date: April 13, 1993 �k 27 Sing Chan, ttorney for Appellant 28 Page4 C,1I'Y-OF SAN BERN" RDINO - REQUEST P jR COUNCIL ACT ON 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. The decision by the Chief of Police and Police Commission has been appealed to the Mayor and Common Council. The appeal is scheduled to be heard by the Mayor and Common Council June 21, 1993 . Mr. Liao has been and is attempting to sell the motel . During the Police Commission hearing, the following findings were presented: 1 - Mr. and Mrs. Liao obtained the Desert Inn in 1980 and operated it approximately seven 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.k982, 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 prostitution. 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 5.92 says an operator's permit will be issued only upon finding that: 75-0264 9 1 "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 governmen- tal quasi-judicial proceeding when the facts underlying such proceeding 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. " "There were not prior significant arrests or police investigation concerning 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. ,, CONCLUSION 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 investiga- tions 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.

PLACE: Council Chambers 16 ) City Hall 300 North "D" St. 17 ) San Bernardino, CA 18 19 INTRODUCTION 20 JACK LIAO was the owner/operator of the Desert Inn Motel 21 located at 607 W. 5th Street, San Bernardino, California from (at 22 least) 1982 to 1988 . In 1987 , the City imposed requirements for 23 an Operators Permit . Mr . Liao, as a current owner, was 24 "grandfathered" in and issued an Operators Permit . In March 25 1988 , Chiau-Li Chen purchased the property from JACK LIAO. In 26 July 1992 , JACK LIAO re-acquired the property and applied for an 27 Operator' s Permit . After investigation by the Chief of Police, 28 the application was denied. JACK LIAO appealed the decision of FLR/aLCJLiao.BRF] 1 1 the Chief of Police denying his application for an Operator' s 2 Permit to the Police Commission which upheld the denial of the 3 application. JACK LIAO now appeals the denial of his application 4 for an Operators Permit to the City Council . 5 DENIAL WAS PROPER 6 San Bernardino Municipal Code 5 . 82 . 050 sets forth the 7 investigative process, the relevant facts and materials to be 8 considered, and the findings which have to be made by the CHIEF OF 9 POLICE prior to the issuance of an Operator' s Permit. The Chief 10 found 1 ) that Appellant had a prior conviction for a crime 11 directly related to the business of running a motel; 2 ) that 12 there were prior significant arrests on or related to the business 13 premises of the Appellant; 3 ) that Appellant had knowingly made 14 false statements during the application process; and 4) that 15 there was other relevant factual material to support his decision. 16 SBMC 5.82 .050(A) - PRIOR CONVICTIONS 17 Court records confirm that JACK AND LINDA LIAO were charged 18 with four counts of P.C. 316 on August 8, 1983 . A plea bargain 19 was reached on December 8, 1983 and JACK LIAO and his wife LINDA 20 LIA.O pled nolo contendere to P.C . 664/316 (attempt/keeping 21 disorderly or assignation house) . 22 A plea of nolo contendere has exactly the same effect as a 23 guilty plea. Thus , this is a prior conviction for an offense 24 directly related to the particular business operation i . e. Motel 25 and shows the lack of qualities essential to protect the public 26 health, safety and welfare . ( See Court Records ) . 27 28 FLR/aLCJLiao.BRF] 2 I SBMC 5.82 .050(B) - PRIOR SIGNIFICANT ARRESTS 2 From August 1984 to February 1988, during which JACK LIAO 3 was the owner/operator of the Desert Inn Motel, there were 82 4 incidents to which the Police Department responded. These 5 incidents included assaults, thefts, robberies, burglaries, drugs, 6 stolen property, and prostitution. ( See Incident Reports ) . All 7 occurred on the business premise of the Appellant and were related 8 to -the method and manner in which Appellant operated his business . 9 ( See also memo from Lt. Jarvis dated August 19, 1992 ) . 10 SBMC 5.82 .050(D) - FALSE STATEMENTS 11 During the investigation C. S .R. Harps interviewed the 12 Appellant. MR. LIAO was asked two times if he had ever been 13 arrested. Both times he replied "no" . When specifically asked 14 about the incident in 1983 he "remembered" only his wife' s prior 15 arrest for violation of P.C. 316, not his own. 16 OTHER RELEVANT FACTUAL MATERIAL 17 The Appellant also owns/operates the Seven Crowns Motel in 18 the City of Orange. As part of the investigation C. S .R. Harps, 19 accompanied by other San Bernardino Police Officers, went to the 20 motel . They were able to obtain a room even after advising the 21 clerk that the room was to be used for prostitution purposes . 22 ( See investigative report of C. S . R. Harps ) . Additionally, Orange 23 Police Department provided information regarding the motel and 24 advised that the motel ' s police service rate is higher than other 25 similar motels in the city. ( See letter from Bob Green dated 26 August 7 , 1992 ) . 27 28 FLR/aLCJLiao.BRF7 3 f 1 1 CONCLUSION 2 The evidence before the City Council overwhelmingly supports 3 the denial of the Operator' s Permit.

In July 1992 , the owner of the motel went 21 22 bankrupt. Mr. Liao, as trustee, re-acquired the business in 23 foreclosure. Mr. Liao re-applied for the business permit; his application was denied on August 25, 1992 . 24 3 . Mr. Liao appealed the decision of the Chief of Police of 25 denial of his application for business permit to the Police 26 Commission on November 30, 1992 . The Police Chief 's decision was 27 28 Pagel t upheld by the Police Commission. � 1 4 . Pursuant to San Bernardino Municipal Code Section 5 . 82 . 210 2 and 5 . 82 . 240, Mr. Liao has timely filed an appeal to the City 3 Council against the Police Commission's decision to uphold the 4 denial of his application of business permit. 5 GROUNDS OF DENIAL_ ARE BIASED, IMPROPER AND INSUFFICIENT 6 In the Police Chief 's decision in denying Mr. Liao the 7 business permit, it was alleged that Mr. Liao had a prior 8 conviction, that Mr. Liao had made false statements, that Mr. 9 Liao permitted prostitution activity in his other motel . 10 However, the Police Chief failed to provide sufficient findings 11 of facts and law to support said allegations . The decision of 12 denial is therefore arbitrary and inconsistent with the law and 13 public policy. 14 I . SBMC 5 . 82 . 050 (A) - Prior Conviction 15 The court records show that in 1983, Mr. and Mrs . Liao 16 pled bargain to charges under P.C. 664/316 and subject to 17 18 probation for two years . There was no finding of facts to prove that Mr. Liao or his wife had committed any crime relating to the 19 operation of the motel business . During the probation and in 20 subsequent years, Mr. Liao and his wife have remained law-abiding 21 residents and have not been found in violation of any law 22 relating to the operation of the motel . 23 In fact, as stated above, the police was satisfied with 24 Mr. Liao ' s operation and granted the renewal of business permit 25 in 1987 . 26 II . SBMC 5 . 82 . 050 (B) - Prior Significant Arrests 27 28 Page2 The so-called "prior significant arrests " made on the 1 premises of Mr. Liao's motel, as alleged by Police Chief, were 2 Mr. Liao's calls for police assistance. In fact, in some 3 instances of these crimes, Mr. or Mrs . Liao was the victim. It 4 is against public justice that in an orderly and democratic 5 6 country that the Police punishes and blames citizens who report crime when it itself has failed to protect small businesses and 7 ordinary citizens from the threat of criminal activities . 8 III . SBMC 5 . 82 . 050(D) - False Statements 9 10 The fact that Mr. Liao failed to recall the prior 11 charges which occurred nine years ago does not warrant a finding 12 that Mr. Liao has "knowingly" made any false, misleading or fraudulent statement of facts . 13 14 It is not uncommon that an ordinary citizen may fail to respond accurately and immediately when being interviewed by a 15 16 law enforcement officer, in particular, when the incidents being asked occurred over nine years ago. 17 At the time of the interview, Mr. Liao was emotionally 18 unstable and frustrated because of the serious illness of his 19 wife. His failure to recall the prior charges was unintentional . 20 IV. Investigation of Seven Crowns Motel 21 Mr. Liao has been operating the Seven Crowns Motel for 22 nine years . He has never been charged for any violations . 23 The findings of the police investigation by Officers 24 Harps and Spindler at the motel do not reflect the truth. The 25 police officers had the opportunity to, but chose not to, make 26 inquiries to Mrs . Liao who was operating the motel at the time of 27 28 Page3 nvestigation. Harps alleged that Ms . Heidi Tseng, who was a 1 2 visiting relative of Mr. Liao from Taiwan, knowingly rented him a 3 room after Det. Spindler told Ms . Tseng that Harps was a hooker. " Taiwan is a Chinese-speaking country, where the word 4 5 'hooker" is not commonly used to mean "prostitute. " Ms . Tseng 6 id not understand Harp's question. Furthermore, Ms . Tseng was 7 of an employee in the motel, nor did she know anything about 8 operation of the motel . CONCLUSION 9 10 From 1980 till 1987 , Mr. Liao had no problem in 11 obtaining the permit in operating the motel . Since Mr. Liao re- 12 acquired the motel in July 1992, according to Lt. Jarvis 's 13 estimony (see item 8, paragraph 9, page 9 of the Minutes of the 14 Police) , "the motel is in much better shape than it was before. " he Chief of Police has failed to provide any fact or evidence to 15 how any change of circumstances which led to his decision to 16 17 deny Mr. Liao's application for business permit. Small business 18 owners like Mr. Liao have contributed to the community. At this 19 ime of weak economy, the community, residents and small 20 businesses need to work together to rebuild the community. It is 21 of only against law but also against public interest that the 22 olice attempts to shut down the small business without a legally 23 justified reason. The Police Commission's decision in upholding 24 he Police ' s denial should therefore be reversed and Mr. Liao's 25 application of business permit be granted. 26 I Date: April 13 , 1993 27 Sing Chan, ttorney for Appellant 28 Page4 k 1 BEFORE THE POLICE COMMISSION 2 OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO In the Matter of the Hearing of ) FINDINGS OF FACT 3 ) AND STATEMENT OF DECISION; NOTICE OF 4 JACK and LINDA LIAO ) RIGHT TO APPEAL (DESERT INN MOTEL) ) 5 ) 6 The above-captioned matter concerning the application of 7 JACK and LINDA LIAO (AKA WEN-HSIUNG LIAO and LO TSAI LIAO), 8 pursuant to San Bernardino Municipal Code Chapter 5.82, for a 9 permit to operate the Desert Inn Motel came on for hearing on 10 November 30, 1992, at 6:30 p.m. , before the Police Commission of 11 the City of San Bernardino in the Council Chambers at City Hall at I 12 300 North "D" Street, San Bernardino, California 92418. 13 JACK LIAO was present and was represented by Attorney SING I 14 CHANG throughout the hearing.

Secretary, Police Department Subject: Police Commission Minutes Regarding Desert inn Appeal Hearing Date: March 29, 1993 Copies: I have reviewed the tapes of the Desert Inn Motel appeal hearing. Mr. Chan's questioning of Sgt. Tull was not included in the minutes as you objected to Mr. Chan's questioning on the basis of relevance. Your objection was sustained by Acting chairman Thomas. HERNADINO POLICE ID : 714-384-5601 APR 19 ' 93 8 .31 No .001 P .03 1 { Mr. Chan asks Sgt. Tull whether it was legally required to check I.b. 's, not to rent rooms to people for long periods of time, and to personally know hotel guests. Sgt. Tull states no they are not. However, if we advise them or if they are aware of criminal activity these are steps they need to take to eliminate criminal activity. Mr. Chan states to eliminate long-term renting would cause them to lose some part of their business and to require that they know the hotel guests would eliminate a very large part of their business, which Sgt. Tull has admitted is not legally required. Mr. Chan asks Sgt. Tull if he advisee them to comply with his requirement--which was not a legal requirement--the result is to lose a significant part of their business. Sgt. Tull replies, he is giving them steps and suggestions to eliminate criminal activity on their property. If they chose to use those fine. If they don't, we will take steps to do something with their operator's permit. Mr. Chan states if they do not comply with Sgt. Tull 's advice-- which were not legally required--would cause direct loss of their business, Sgt. Tull would do something to their business permit. At this point, you objected to Mr. Chan's questioning. You state you don't believe this particular dialouge is getting us anywhere. You objected on the basis of relevance. The issue is not what they can do in the future. The issue is whether or not the past criteria is sufficient to warrant the denial of the permit. Mr. Chan states he believes there is direct relevancy to the reason behind the denial of a regular business permit. Acting chairman Thomas sustained your objection and made the comment that Sergeant Tull didn't call these requirements. He is calling them "suggestions. " Mr. Chan states if the Liao's failed to comply with Sgt. Tull 's advice which were not a legal requirement, he would do something to their business permit, Acting Chairman Thomas interjects and states that Sgt. Tull has answered this question, He said that if it results in criminal activity, he would take action. Mr. Chan asks Sgt. Tull if he would do something to the business only if there was a result of criminal activities. Sgt. Tull states if they were aware of criminal activities and criminal activity was still occurring on their business, they did not take steps to eliminate that criminal activity after being made aware of it, yes steps would be taken to correct that and that step would be to file a complaint with the Police Commission and let the Police Commission hear it and the penalty for that the first time is a 30-day loss of license. 3 1 SAN BERNADINO POLICE ID : 714-384-5601 APR 19 ' 93 8 :46 No .002 P .02 r Mr. Chan asks if the..a has been any kind of comp.,aint filed under f Mr. Laiols management. Sgt. Tull states no there has not. Mr. Chan states in the absence of any complaint that was actually filed, thero was no criminal activities during that period. Sgt. Tull states there was. There was no complaint filed because Mr. Liao sold the business. He is sure if he would have stayed there and continued conducting the business like he did, a complaint would have been filed. However, he chose to sell the motel at his present stage and leave San Bernardino. Mr. Chan continues his questioning of Sgt. Tull asking if he would expect that there would be a complaint filed because of possible criminal activities. Sgt. Tull states if criminal activity was occurring on his premise the way it was prior to his departure, he feels confident that a complaint would have been filed. Mr. Chan states had Mr. Liao chosen to stay with his business, Sgt. Tull would expect that there would be a complaint filed because of Possible criminal activities. Sgt. Tull replies if criminal activity was occurring on his premise the way it was prior to his depature, he feels confident that a complaint would have been filed. Mr. Chan states that was a possiblity. In the last four months there wasn't any criminal activity to his knowledge. Sgt. Tull states circumstances were slightly different also. Mr. Chan states they were also under Mr. Liao's management. Sgt. Tull continues to state there was no criminal activity at the Desert Inn in the last four months .

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. N I N V T E N SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -3- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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 !:)usiness 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. 0 SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -4- 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 M TL N E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -5- 8. 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. 0 i M I N U T S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -6- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. 0 M I N U E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -7- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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 i 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. aTEa 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. SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -9- 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. M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -11- 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. t 0 S 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 occsrring at the Desert Inn premises since his application for an operator's permit. J SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -13- 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. 0 M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -14- 8 . NEW 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. MIX1UTES SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -15- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. 0 S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -16- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -17- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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-chip 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. i SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -18- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. . 0 Fw✓ A I N U T F S ' SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -19- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. a SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE —20- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . 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. U TT TT �+ cc 3 SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -21- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. .JY M I N U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -22- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. I I I N U F S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -23- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. I S U T E S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -24- 8. NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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 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 NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -25- 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. S SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -26- 8 . NEW BUSINESS. . . . . . 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. 0 SAN BERNARDINO POLICE COMMISSION NOVEMBER 30, 1992 PAGE -27- 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. S i 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.

E. L. TULL 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 Wen 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 had 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 polo 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 3/10/72 . 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. mr 6 [ Od � D SEP 10 19�?

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 tallwith you. Very truly yours, BENJAMIN GONZALES, CHIEF OF POLICE . .. "eix+nim"� w.l sue' - ` >..

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. 1Y . 1 xwx e.
