APPLICANT: Balbir Jhawar
16196 Jacobs Circle
Riverside, CA 92504
REQUEST AND LOCATION
The applicant is requesting approval from the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
(ABC) for a Type 20 beer and wine License. This license allows the sale of beer and wine for

KEY POINTS
• Section 23958.4 of the Business and Professions Code requires that a local agency

• On August 21, 1995 the Mayor and Common Council elected to be the body that
reviews and issues letters of Public Convenience or Necessity letters to the ABC.
• The subject site meets the locational criteria established in the Development Code.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Conditional Use Permit No. 95-17 has been determined to be categorically exempt (Class 1
Exemption) from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under
Section 15301 of the CEQA guidelines pertaining to the reuse of existing facilities with only a
negligible intensification in use.

DETERNIINATION
The applicant's request has been reviewed and the off-site sale of beer and wine in association
with the convenience store at 1198 East Highland Avenue will not have a negative impact on the
surrounding community and will serve the public convenience or necessity. The determination
is based on the following findings:
1. The proposed location is an existing service station with a convenience store. The proper
security and lighting will allow patrons to purchase beer and wine in a safe setting.
2. The floor area devoted to beer and wine sales is minimal and customers will benefit from
the issuance of the license by being able to conveniently purchase beer and wine form
among the many products sold at the convenience store.
3. The sale of alcohol is reasonable and common within most service stations/convenience
stores. The inclusion of beer and wine sales will allow the service station and
convenience store shoppers the same opportunities given throughout the state.
4. The Police Department has reviewed the request and does not object to the sale of beer
and wine for off-site consumption.
COMMENTS RECEIVED
A variety of comments have been received from the residents of the surrounding neighborhoods
(Exhibit 1, Attachment H). These comments (one verbal and three written) range from
supporting the development to having concerns with regard to the sale of alcohol. All three
letters received are supportive of the re-use of the building, however, two of these raise concerns
with the off-site sale of alcohol.
Mr. Phil Sousa, Director of Real Property for the Catholic Diocese, also expressed the concerns
of the Diocese with respect to the off-site sales of alcohol across the street. Mr. Sousa stated
that the Diocese was supportive of the re-use of the building but against the sale of alcohol at
this location.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission reviewed Conditional Use Permit No. 95-17 on November 8, 1995,
and voted 6-1 to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 95-17, for the re-establishment of the
service station with a convenience store and off-site beer and wine sales, and recommend that
the Mayor and Common Council make a determination that a public convenience or necessity
will be served by the issuance of this license. Commissioners recommending approval: Gaffney,

.QUEST AND LOCATION
Under authority of Development Code Section 19.06.020(Table 06.02 [B][7]&[I][1]) the applicant is
requesting a Conditional Use Permit to re-establish a service station, with a convenience store and
off-site beer and wine sales (Type 20 License), in a building that has been vacant greater than 180
days in the CG-1, Commercial General land use district. The subject property is located at 1198
East Highland Avenue in the CG-1, Commercial General Plan land use designation (Attachment A).
BACKGROUND
The existing structure on the subject site was developed in 1960 by the Richfield Oil Company. The
structure has housed a variety of service stations over the last 35 years, most recently Golden Car
Care which occupied the site until September of 1994. Today the building is vacant and dilapidated.
On August 7, 1995, the applicant submitted an application for Conditional Use Permit No. 95-17 to
re-establish the service station use under a new ownership. The Development/Environmental Review
Committee (D/ERC) reviewed this project on August 24, 1995 and again on September 12, 1995.
The D/ERC voted to forward this proposal to the Planning Commission.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMF_N'fAL QUALITY ACT STATUS
Conditional Use Permit No. 95-17 has been determined to be categorically exempt (Class 1
Exemption) from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section
15301 of the CEQA guidelines pertaining to the reuse of existing facilities with only a negligible
intensification in use.
COMMENTS RECEIVED
A variety of comments have been received from residents of the surrounding neighborhoods
(Attachment H). These comments (two written and one verbal) range from supporting the
development to having deep concerns with providing another alcohol outlet along Highland Avenue.
Both letters, included as Attachment H, are in favor of the re-use of the site. It seems that the
surrounding neighbors are in favor of the proposed development, but some concerns remain with the
off-site alcohol sales.
PROTECT AND SITE CHARACTERI TICS
SurnvwOng Ama
The subject property is surrounded by a variety of similar land uses. To the east, across Golden
Avenue, is a retail center and vacant land that is within the CG-1, Commercial General land use
district. South of the site across Highland Avenue is the new Catholic Diocese office that is located
within the CG-1, Commercial land use district. To the west and north of the subject site is a small

retail center within the CG-1, Commercial General land use district.
ANALYSIS
Proposed Use
The applicant proposes to re-establish a service station, with a convenience store and off-site beer
and wine sales. The proposed project would be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and
employ a total of 3 employees, with one employee being on the subject site at any time.
The proposal will include the alteration of the existing service bay area into a convenience store.
The convenience store will occupy approximately 475 square feet of the existing 1125 square foot
building. Additional building area would be used for storage, bathrooms and an office.
The Development Code recognizes service stations, and convenience stores, as conditionally
permitted uses in the CG-1, Commercial General land use designation. The use would then have to
meet the criteria of the particular land use district. Setbacks, lot coverage, building height, parking
and etc. are determined by the land use district in which the business will be located within.
Parking and Landscaping
Parking for the proposed use is provided on the subject property. The subject use requires 1 space
for every 250 square feet of building area. Thus, the approximate 1,125 square foot building would
require a total of 5 off-street parking spaces, which are provided (Attachment B).
Alterations to the site, as requested by the D/ERC, include the addition of parking spaces,
landscaping and a refuse enclosure. Landscaping will increase from 0% (existing) to approximately
11% as proposed. The Development Code requires a minimum of 15% landscaping unless that
requirement would reduce the number of required parking spaces. The applicant has worked with
staff and provided the maximum amount of landscaping without negatively impacting the required
parking and circulation.
Alcoholic Beverage Control License
This item was submitted to the Police Department for review and comment. The report (Attachment
G) that the Police Department prepared concluded that they do not object to the approval of the
project as long as certain conditions of approval are added. These conditions will help to alleviate
residents' concerns, and are included in Attachment I.
The Development Code requires that businesses establishing off-site alcohol sales not be located
within 500 feet of any religious institution, school or public park within the City; 100 feet of any
property designated for residential use or used for residential purposes; and shall not be located in
such close proximity to another similar use to cause over-saturation of the neighborhood. This
C.U.P. No. 95-17
Agenda Item# 1
Hearing Date: November 8, 1995
Page 4
proposal meets all of the Development Code locational criteria as stated above .
The site is located in an area with an over saturation of off-site Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC)
licenses and requires a determination by the Mayor and Common Council that a public convenience
or necessity will be served by the issuance of the license. The applicant feels that a public
convenience would be served by the issuance of the ABC license (Attachment I).
General Plan Consistency
The Commercial General land use designation intends to "provide for the continued use,
enhancement, and new development of retail, personal service, entertainment, office and related
commercial uses along major transportation corridors and intersections to serve the needs of the
residents; reinforcing existing commercial corridors and centers and establishing new locations as
residential growth occurs." The CG-1, Commercial General land use district permits the re-
establishment of a service station, with a convenience store and off-site beer and wine sales, with
the approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
The General Plan contains a policy stating:
It shall be the policy of the City of San Bernardino to permit "a diversity of community-
serving uses (grocery stores, apparel and accessories, furniture and home furnishings, garden
supplies, restaurants, bookstores, cleaning establishments, shoe repair, beauty salons/hair
styling, and other similar uses), entertainment uses, and professional and financial offices in
areas designated as "Commercial General"."
This proposal meets the requirements of the Development Code and the General Plan as shown in
Attachment C, the General Plan/Development Code Conformance Table.
CONCLUSION
The proposal to re-establish a service station with a convenience store and off-site alcohol sales is
consistent with General Plan policy and with the applicable Development Code requirements. The
use is permitted in the CG-1, Commercial General land use district subject to the approval of a
Conditional Use Permit. Staff's conclusion is that the proposed use is compatible with the
surrounding properties and will not result in an adverse impacts pending adherence to the Conditions
of Approval (Attachment E) and Standard Requirements (Attachment F).

the applicable provisions of the Development Code.
2. The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan, in that it meets all applicable goals
objectives and policies that are set forth.

not have the possibility to have a significant negative impact on the environment since it only
includes the re-use of an existing building.
5. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use are compatible
with the existing and future land uses within the general area in which the proposed use is to
be located and will not create significant noise, traffic or other conditions or situations that
may be objectionable or detrimental to other permitted uses in the vicinity or adverse to the
public interest, health, safety, convenience or welfare of the City, in that building is already
existing and the use has been conditioned so as to not adversely impact surrounding
properties.

The idea that transients at the park can get beer and wine over the

Dear Mr. Donaghe:
This letter is written in reply to your letter of September 27, 1995 regarding the above
captioned Conditional Use Permit.
Recent changes in the Government Code with regards to the processing of alcohol permits
.quires my,response.
By pro-viding alcohol sales through a Beer and Wine License, it serves as a convenience for
our customers of our proposed Mini Market Convenience Store.
Should you have any questions, please advise.
Sincerely.

Re: Conditional Use Permit

1198 E. Highland Avenue
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Diocese of San Bernardino is currently completing construction
on our new Pastoral Center at 1201 East Highland Avenue - which is
immediately south of the subject property.
The Diocese has spent several million dollars in purchasing and
rehabilitating this property. We feel that our new facility will
be a tremendous asset to the neighborhood along Highland Avenue,
and to the City as a whole.
We, therefore, take exception to the issue that beer and wine is to
be sold at the convenience store that is being proposed across the
street at 1198 East Highland Avenue.
According to the Alcohol Beverage Commission, there is already an
over abundance of off-site liquor licenses in this area. This will
only add to the problem of crime and vagrancy which plague the
neighborhood.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely,
Philip Sou
