A. MODIFICATION 16-01 - TSW Investment LLC doing business as Fairfield Inn and Suites by Marriott has
submitted a Modification application requesting to modify Conditional Use Permit 15-08 from an Off-Sale
Beer and Wine (Type 20) ABC license to an On-Sale General Restrictive Service (Type 70) ABC license at
a corner market located within the hotel. The modification is required by the California Department of
Alcoholic Beverage Control for onsite consumption. The subject site is located at 705 San Gabriel
Boulevard (APN:5271-002-066)in a C-3(Medium Commercial)zone.
On March 7, 2016, the Planning Commission approved Conditional Use Permit 15-08 for a new Off-Sale
Beer and Wine (Type 20) ABC license at a corner market located within the hotel. The Planning
Commission Staff Report, Planning Commission Resolution 16-02, and Meeting Minutes are attached as
Exhibits "B," "C;' and "D", respectively. On June 1, 2016, the Planning Division was contacted by the
California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control(ABC) indicating that the license type must be modified
to an On-Sale General Restrictive Service (Type 70)ABC license, which authorizes the sale or furnishing of
beer, wine, and distilled spirits for consumption on the premises to the establishment's overnight transient
occupancy guests or their invitees.
Apparently, through the State application process, the applicant and ABC had some miscommunication on
the type of license needed to consume alcohol onsite. For this reason, the applicant is only requesting to
modify their ABC license type. All business operations, security measures, and employee training
measures will remain as approved by Conditional Use Permit 15-08. The Planning Division and Public
Safety Department have no objection to this request.
