ITEM TITLE:
Notice of Decision — Planning Commission approval of a Conditional Use Permit for the sale of beer and

PREPARED BY: Martin Reeder DEPARTMENT:
PHONE: 336-4313 APPROV
EXPLANATION:
cs/Planning.
The applicant is requesting to offer beer and wine for on site consumption between the hours of 11:00 a.m. and
9:00 p.m. seven days a week. All alcohol products would be stored in the rear kitchen and storage area and
would be brought to the table by a server. There would also be a shelf near the point of sale displaying alcohol
products for sale.
The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on April 18, 2011. There were no concerns noted from
area residents. Commissioners asked questions regarding hours of operation, at which time the applicant
volunteered to reduce their original proposed sales hours of 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., in line with recent
approvals. A Police Department representative again indicated that restaurants closing earlier in the evening
were less of an issue than bars or off -sale alcohol outlets and that no over -concentration of alcohol licenses
exists in this area. The Commission voted to approve the CUP based on required findings and subject to
Conditions of Approval, with condition no. 7 changed to reflect the modified sales hours.
