FROM: JEFF ALLRED, CITY MANAGE
DATE: JUNE 8, 2010 q0
SUBJECT: ESTABLISHMENT OF PROCEDURES AND CRITERIA FOR
DETERMINATION WHETHER PUBLIC CONVENIENCE.OR NECESSITY
WILL BE SERVED BY ISSUANCE OF OFF-SALE OR ON-SALE LIQUOR
LICENSES WHERE A FINDING OF UNDUE CONCENTRATION HAS
BEEN MADE BY THE DEPARTMENT OF ALCOHOL BEVERAGE
CONTROL
SUMMARY
The proposed Resolution No. 2010-34 (Exhibit A) would establish procedures and
criteria for reviewing the public convenience or necessity of issuing alcohol licenses in
areas where the Department of Alcohol Beverage Control has determined an undue
concentration of licenses exists. The resolution designates the Planning Commission as
the decision making body for such findings.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2010-34.
DISCUSSION
The Department of Alcohol and Beverage Control (ABC) is the sole agency that has the
authority to issue alcohol licenses. In certain circumstances where there is an undue
concentration of licenses in a census tract, ABC will not issue a new off-sale license or
certain on-sale licenses unless the local government body first grants a determination of
public convenience or necessity (PCN). The PCN process was established by ABC to
allow a local jurisdiction to consider additional licenses in over-concentrated areas and
determine if the additional licenses would serve the public convenience or necessity. A
PCN can be granted and the alcohol license may be issued by ABC if the local decision
making body or official determines that the public convenience or necessity would be
served by the new license.
The proposed resolution would establish procedures for an applicant to request a PCN
determination. It also contains nine criteria for the decision making body to use when
evaluating whether or not to grant the PCN determination.
