COUNCIL: NO BUILDING CHANGES ARE PROPOSED. COUNCIL: THE 2,700 SQUARE FOOT CONVENIENCE STORE WILL KEEP EXISTING HOURS OF OPERATION. COUNCIL: AND THIS IS JUST AN IMAGE OF THE ACTUAL GAS STATION. COUNCIL: THE SALE OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES BEYOND A BONA FIDE RESTAURANT REQUIRES A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT. A PCN ANALYSIS IS REQUIRED FOR SUBSEQUENT ABC LICENSING FOR HARD LIQUOR TO ENSURE IT DOES NOT SIGNIFICANTLY CONTRIBUTE TO ANY EXISTING OVERSATURATION OF SUCH LICENSES. COUNCIL: STAFF RESEARCHED THE PROJECT SITE HISTORY. COUNCIL: AND OBTAINED ABC LICENSING INFORMATION FOR THE SURROUNDING AREA. COUNCIL: THERE ARE A TOTAL OF 6 ACTIVE ALCOHOL LICENSES WITHIN THE 1-MILE RADIUS.

COUNCIL: WHICH YOU CAN SEE UP THE TOP, OVER HERE. COUNCIL: WITH… ALONG WITH 2 OTHER ALCOHOL LICENSES, AND THEN HERE'S A PROJECT SITE HIGHLIGHTED IN RED, AND THEN IN THAT SHOPPING CENTER, THERE'S 3 OTHER ALCOHOL LICENSES AS WELL.

COUNCIL: WITH CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL, STAFF FOUND THAT THE PROJECT WOULD NOT CREATE HEALTH, SAFETY, OR WELFARE IMPACTS. THE POLICE CHIEF REPORTED NO CHRONIC CONCERNS, AND RAISED NO OBJECTION. COUNCIL: FLOOD HAZARDS FINDINGS ARE NOT APPLICABLE BECAUSE THE SITE IS NOT LOCATED IN THE FLOOD ZONE. COUNCIL: THE PROJECT IS EXEMPT BECAUSE, THE 2,700 SQUARE FOOT CONVENIENCE STORE IS EXISTING. THUS, THE PROJECT, AS CONDITIONED, WILL NOT HAVE A SIGNIFICANT EFFECT ON THE ENVIRONMENT. COUNCIL: THE PROJECT IS EXEMPT BECAUSE IT MEETS THE CRITERIA THAT CHARACTERIZE IT AS EXISTING DEVELOPMENT.

COUNCIL: SO WE HAVE THE APPLICANT TEAM… COUNCIL: HERE, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THEM, OR IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME. THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATIONS. COUNCIL: ALRIGHT, THANK YOU, MY FRIEND. COUNCIL: I'LL BRING IT TO MY COLLEAGUES. DO ANY OF MY COLLEAGUES HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS AT THIS POINT? COUNCIL: ARE WE OPEN AT THE PUBLIC HEARING? PLEASE, COMMISSIONER JOHNSON. COUNCIL: I ASSUME THE SCHOOL DISTRICT WAS NOTIFIED, AND DID THEY HAVE ANY COMMENTS ON THE APPLICATION?

COUNCIL: THAT MEANING YOU WERE JUST SHOWING US. COUNCIL: WHAT ON-SITE AND OFF-SITE ARE IN THE AREA, OR IS THIS GONNA BE BOTH? COUNCIL: YEAH, I COULD SEE WHY THAT'S CONFUSION. I SHOULD HAVE JUST STRUCK OUT THE ON-SITE, BECAUSE IT'S TECHNICALLY JUST OFF-SITE SALE OF ALCOHOL. COUNCIL: OFF-SITE. CORRECT. COUNCIL: I THINK, ORIGINALLY, I THINK I WAS TRYING TO… COUNCIL: INDICATE THAT BOTH ON-SITE AND OFF-SITE REQUIRE CUP. COUNCIL: AND COMMERCIAL ZONE. COUNCIL: ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS AT THIS POINT? COUNCIL: I'LL NOW OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. CITIZENS WISHING TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM MAY REQUEST TO SPEAK BY RAISING THEIR HAND WHEN REQUESTED TO DO SO. PLEASE LIMIT YOUR COMMENTS TO 3 MINUTES. COUNCIL: AND, BEFORE I ASK WHAT HANDS ARE RAISED, I'D LIKE TO GIVE COUNCIL: THE APPLICANT, AN OPPORTUNITY IF THEY HAVE ANY COMMENTS, OR WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A PRESENTATION AT THIS POINT. COUNCIL: OH, PLEASE, PLEASE STEP UP TO THE PODIUM AND… YEAH. COUNCIL: HI, MY NAME IS NICK, I'M THE OWNER AT THE CHEVRON. I JUST WANT TO ADD THAT, I KNOW HE POINTED OUT THERE'S 6 ACTIVE LICENSES WITHIN THE ONE MILE, BUT THEY'RE ALL MOSTLY ON-SITE. LIKE, PIZZA PLACE, THEY'RE NOT OFF THE OFF-SALE ONE. THE ONLY OFF-SALE IS THE OTHER CHEVRON. COUNCIL: SO, WITHIN THE MILE, THERE'S NO OTHER PLACES WHERE OUR CUSTOMERS CAN BUY LIQUOR. COUNCIL: SO, IT'S MAINLY FOR PUBLIC CONVENIENCE, A LOT OF… THERE'S MORE THAN A THOUSAND HOUSES WITHIN ONE MILE, BUT NO OTHER PLACE FOR THEM TO BUY LIQUOR. SO WE GET IT ALL THE TIME THAT THEY GET THE GAS, WE ALREADY HAVE BEER AND WINE. COUNCIL: SO, WE ALWAYS… WE GET A LOT OF REQUESTS IF WE CAN ADD LIQUOR. AND IF WE DO ADD LIQUOR, THE SCHOOL CONCERNED, ACROSS THE STREET, WE PLAN ON HAVING ALL THE LIQUOR BEHIND THE COUNTER. COUNCIL: SO NOBODY CAN RUN AWAY WITH A BOTTLE, OR NO RUNOFFS, BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH WHEN IT'S ON THE SHELVES, NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY, KIDS WILL JUST RUN AWAY. SO WE PLAN ON… COUNCIL: KEEPING IT ALL BEHIND THE COUNTER. AND ALSO WANT TO ADD THAT IN OUR PREVIOUS YEARS, WE HAVE NO VIOLATIONS FROM ABC, COUNCIL: WE ALWAYS FOLLOW ALL THE LAWS, AND NO… COUNCIL: LOITERING, NONE OF THAT. WE HAVE NO, LIKE THE POLICE CHIEF SAID. COUNCIL: IT, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, WE FOLLOW ALL THE, EVERY, ALL THE RULES AND REGULATIONS. SO, THAT'S ALL I WANTED TO ADD. EXCELLENT. THANK YOU.

COUNCIL: I DO NOT SEE ANY HANDS RAISED ONLINE. COUNCIL: AND IS THERE ANYONE IN THE ROOM WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK? COUNCIL: PLEASE COME TO THE PODIUM AND, PLEASE, STATE YOUR NAME. COUNCIL: MY NAME IS KEVIN SIDDLE. I LIVE AT 1ST AND O STREET. I THINK THIS IS A REALLY BAD IDEA. COUNCIL: BECAUSE WITHIN… A FEW MILES, AS YOU STATED. THERE'S PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITY TO BUY LIQUOR. COUNCIL: BEING THAT IT'S LITERALLY 100 YARDS AWAY FROM A SCHOOL? COUNCIL: I THINK THAT'S A BAD IDEA. COUNCIL: THANK YOU. COUNCIL: DO WE HAVE ANY, ADDITIONAL HANDS RAISED, OR ANYONE ELSE WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A COMMENT? COUNCIL: I DON'T SEE ANY OTHER HANDS RAISED IN THE ROOM. COUNCIL: OKAY. COUNCIL: SEEING THAT, I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND BRING IT BACK TO MY COLLEAGUES. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENTS?
