CASE FILE NO. CUP-2003-1
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of National City considered a
Conditional Use Permit application for the sale of beer and wine at the 7 Dias
market at151 North Highland Avenue, in the Highland View Towne Center at the
regularly scheduled City Council meeting of April 15, 2003, at which time oral and
documentary evidence was presented; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing the City Council considered the staff
report prepared for Case File No. CUP-2003-1 which is maintained by the City, and
incorporated herein by reference; and
WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures
required by State and City law; and
WHEREAS, this action recited herein is found to be essential for the
preservation of public health, safety and general welfare.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City
of National City, California, that the testimony and evidence presented to the City
Council at the public hearing held on April 15, 2003, support the following
findings:
1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since
the existing market has ample room available for the incidental sale of beer and wine.
2. That the site has sufficient access to streets and highways that are
adequate in width and pavement type to carry the volume and type of traffic
generated by the proposed use, since the site is already developed as a market and
has adequate access via North Highland Avenue/43`d Street, an arterial, and the
applicant has stated that the majority of his customers live nearby and walk to the
market.
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or
abutting properties, since conditions of approval will limit the hours of operation, the
size and types of containers, and loitering and drinking on the premises.

4. That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public
convenience and welfare, since the addition of beer and wine sales will allow the

and the new use will allow local customers to complete their shopping at one store
rather than having to go elsewhere to purchase alcohol.

use of the property for the retail sales of alcoholic beverages pursuant to law.
