HomeMy WebLinkAboutPolice Dept. & Institute for Public Strategies commentsTO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: National City Police Department Memorandum Chief Adolfo Gonzales Sergeant Graham Young May 27, 2011 Conditional Use Permit (CUP-2011-16) for the sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits at Valero Gas Station— 10 Osborne Street, National City. This Conditional Use Permit application is for a Type 21 ABC License at 10 Osborne Street, in National City. The application indicated that the applicant would like to sell beer, wine and distilled spirits. There is no mention of a restricted time period of sale; therefore they would have to comply with State regulations of selling alcohol from the hours of 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. To the best of my knowledge, there is no other gas station that has a Type 21 ABC license in National City that would allow them to sell "distilled spirits." On May 25, 2011, I conducted a site survey of the proposed location the proximity to other ABC licensed establishments within a quarter mile of the location. I found during this site survey that there is one other Type 21 License located directly across the street — 110 Liquor Store. The location of the gas station next to the on ramp of northbound and southbound Interstate 5 is a concern for drinking and driving once a sale has been made, especially for the request for selling distilled spirits. Currently the City of National City has a total of 100 "On -sale" and "Off -sale" alcohol selling establishments. This equates to 11.7 alcohol selling establishments per square mile within the City. The Department of Alcohol Beverage Control, (ABC) has only four enforcement personnel to cover regulation enforcement operations in the geographic area south of the Interstate 8, leaving municipal agencies to conduct enforcement of ABC regulations situated in their own jurisdictions. Until the end of the current budget crisis and the Police Department can hire enough officers to facilitate a dedicated unit to police and regulate establishments possessing an ABC license, it makes regulating these ABC Licensed businesses extremely difficult and a burden on regular patrol units.

Shell gas station is 50 feet north. Area is busy thorough fare for mass transit, business and personal vehicles traveling between I-5, 32" U.S. Naval Station, industrial area, downtown National City and residential communities. Recommendations: 1. Mandatory RBSS training for store manager and employees. 2. No single serve alcoholic beverages shall be sold. 3. Given the wide availability of liquor stores and distilled spirits available in National City, city may want to consider rejecting CUP for Type 21 license (beer, wine and distilled spirits) but indicate it would consider approving a CUP for a Type 20 license (beer and wine only).
