Description) Finance: aril Notes: 75.0262 Agenda Item No 0 f .. CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Subject: Initiation of a Development Code Amendment to revise the distance requirements for off-site ABC licenses in certain circumstances The Development Code establishes distance requirements for off-site ABC licenses in relation to religious institutions, schools or public parks in the City (500 feet) and residential uses or districts (100 feet) . If a business does not meet these distance requirements, the application cannot be approved. (Note: The variance section of the Development Code does not include this type of situation/application. ) There is an appeal pending before the Mayor and Common Council which cannot be approved without an amendment to the Development Code. The appellant feels that the distance requirements are unfair because his business is adjacent to the City of Colton and Colton does not have distance requirements. I agree that this is unfair and feel that businesses should not be penalized because of their location. All businesses should be able to compete equally. COSTS TO CITY Planning Division staff estimates that it will cost approximately $3000 to complete an amendment including preparation of the text, environmental review and preparation of a staff report and ordinance. This amount does not include review by any other departments/divisions. RECOMMENDATION I recommend that staff be directed to prepare an amendment to the Development Code to develop criteria whereby the distance requirements can be modified or deleted for off-site ABC licenses for businesses which are located adjacent to other jurisdictions. #'0"fl--� Ralph Hernandez cooe
