RE: Proposed "Cotymel's -A Very Mexican Grill"
Dear Mayor Jacobson & Members of City Council:
6820 LBJ Freeway
Dallojexas 75240
(214)980.9304
In response to a recent telephone conversation between myself and Mr James Hansen, city of El
Segundo Director of Economic Development, I was made aware of a potential concern with the
approval of our proposed development As a result of this concern I would like to take this
opportunity to provide to you some Information on Brinker International and our six restaurant
concepts. I have also attached a few articles about the company which you may find very
interesting. One of these articles is, as they say, " hot off the press ". It was taken from the May
16, 1995 Dallas Morning News It exemplifies the heart of this company and the initiative to do
what is right before it is required by code This information should help to establish an
understanding first about Brinker International and the way we run our operations, and second,
our intentions for this proposed location in the city of El Segundo.
Brinker International operates over 500 restaurants worldwide which allows us to offer
consumers a broad range of choices and price points when dining out Our first Chili's restaurant
opened here in Dallas Just over twenty years ago We have over the years acquired arguably one
of the most experienced management teams in the industry. Chili's Grill & Bar is our flagship
concept which has a success story of its ov n It is in its 1 Ith consecutive year of positive store
comp sales There are not many restaurant companies in the industry that can boast a story
comparable to this. This success has not occurred by accident but as a result of the talent within
our organization and the strong desire to exceed every customer's expectations It is this positive
attitude which has also transcended into each of our other concepts as well

Specific to our Cozymel's concept, Mr Hansen and I discussed ratios of food to alcohol served at
the restaurant While this ratio varies from concept to concept it also varies for location to
location within the concepts The average ratio for Cozyiel's however, is approximately 75 25
food to liquor. Keep in mind that the bar area in our restaurant serves only as ancillary to the
restaurant It is used mostly by our patrons as they await seating. Drinks are also available with
meals which is inclusive of the 25% We currently have several liquor licenses in existence in the
state of California which are all in good standings We are very experienced in the day to day
requirements of operating a restaurant with bar successfully based on the number of total
restaurants already open and operating and our tenure in the industry Our operations personnel is
highly trained in how to deal with alcohol related incidents such as over intoxication or
altercations To be quite honest, however, it is a rare occasions for this to become a problem due
to the atmosphere at each of our restaurant concepts Cozymel's in particular has an atmosphere
which is more favorable to family dining While providing a very festive tone, it is still not the
place that one would go specifically for drinks and it is definitely not in the same class as a club
or tavern.
It is my sincere belief that the approval of this project by city council will allow us to recreate
our successes in the city of El Segundo As you will see in some of the attachments, Brinker has
always and will continue to provide several benefits to the communities in which we develop.
By the way, this location is our first in the state of California of several to follow for our
Cozymel's concept It is also our youngest concept at less than three years old We at Brinker
would be proud to say that our first Cozymel's in the state of California opened in the city of El
Segundo We will also do all within our power to convince the city of El Segundo to be just as
proud of Cozymel's and the entire Brinker family

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Brinker International
Introduces Cozymel's in Wheaton
Dallas, December 3, 1993
Phil Romano and Brinker International, parent company for Chili's have
announced plans to open Cozymel's in Wheaton in September of 1994.
Cozymel's or Nacho Mamas as it is known in its original form was born in
Leon Springs, TX April 7, 1992. Leon Springs is located approximately
fifteen minutes west of San Antonio, and known among other things for its
fresh water springs and Mexican heritage. Cozymel's is a joint venture
between Phil Romano and Brinker International. Phil Romano is a well -known
restaurant entrepreneur and founder of Fuddrucker's and Romano's Macaroni
Grill. Brinker International, parent company of Chili's Grill and Bar,
purchased Macaroni Grill in 1990 and have expanded it to 28 locations.
Since that time, Romano and Brinker International have joined forces to
create Spageddies, which is currently in expansion. Cozymel's is another
creation by Romano and will be developed jointly with Brinker International.
Cozymel's provides a casual, high energy outdoor patio /hacienda atmosphere,
featuring authentic Mexican cooking served in generous portions at modest
prices.
Cozymel's concept is distinguished in the ethnic casual dining market
segment through offering:
• Display cooking featuring fresh snapper, pork chops, T-
bones and roasters on display, mesquite fired rotisserie
chicken, and the constant activity of well trained chefs
in full chef garb.
• Fresh cooked flour tortillas made from scratch and
cooked in full view for the approval of our guests
throughout the day.
• Enjoy indoor or outdoor patio dining along with an
authentic Mexican market and hacienda decor.
• A full service Mexico City style bar serving a variety
of frozen margaritas, specialty Tequilas and Mexican
beers.
• Authentic Mexican menu offerings, cooked to order and
noticeable without the bland and common Tex -Mex food
(•1
• Chilis Call R Bar • C•rafA- Aniemmn Grill kmmPmm. llmarum Grill Slx�>.a dJmv
found so often through out the Mexican food segment.
• A fun and exciting atmosphere for all occasions.
Cozymel's will seat up to 300 guests, including patio
seating, and will offer private banquet seating for as
many as 100. Seasonal flowers and fruits will be
offered as well as high quality gifts and pinatas (to be
used on premise or taken home) in Cozymel's own Cozy
market.
Cozymel's features oak wood grilled rotisserie chicken using Cozymel's
unique rotisserie display and cooking method, searing in the flavor and
importing that special smoked flavor by the high heat and aroma only oak can
provide.
The chicken is served whole on the Pollo Rostizado, dinner, (rotisserie
chicken), half on the Pollo con Mole, and Cazuela de Pollo con Calabacitas
(chicken mole and chicken vegetable stew) and also appears in the Enchiladas
de Pollo and Chile Relleno de Pollo.
Other specialties at Cozymel's are the Chuletas de Cerdo (pork chops with
chipotle pepper sauce), Lomo de Puerco (Mexican pork roast), Pierna de
Cordero (lamb shank), Huachinango al Chile Ancho (snapper /sweet chili
crust), Camaron Azteca (shrimp and spicy herb sauce), chocolate and vanilla
flan desserts for the sweet tooth and a whole host of appetizers and entrees
using authentic Mexican recipes served only at Cozymel's.
Cozymel's strategy is to pursue controlled expansion into major markets
which can support multiple locations for the concepts initial base,
branching into markets in close proximity for second tier development and
ultimately to reach smaller markets in the final development stage. The
first Cozymel's outside of Leon Springs, is under construction in Plano, Tx
with the anticipated opening date of February 28, 1994. A site in Little
Rock, AR and Wheaton, IL are scheduled to open July and September of 1994.
Other Cozymel's sites are in diligent pursuit with the expectation that five
Cozymel's will be open by the Spring of 1995.
Brinker International currently has 393 restaurants, including 337 Chili's
restaurants, in 42 states and in Canada and Mexico. The company's portfolio
of four restaurant concepts -- Chili's Grill & Bar, Romano's Macaroni Grill,
Grady's American Grill and Spageddies -- generated more than $809 million in
systemwide revenues in the 1993 fiscal year. Brinker International's stated
goal is to achieve annual systemwide revenues in excess of $2 billion by the
end of the decade.

ECONOMIC BENEFIT OF A
COZYMEL'S MEXICAN RESTAURANT
TO A COMMUNITY
Cozymel's reflects a combination of self - sufficiency, ingenuity and necessity. A "Mexican
market" runs the length of the entry courtyard and small neon signs, bunches of dried
peppers, and Mexican calendars and posters serve as decor for the restaurant. Fresh
garlic, onions, tomatoes, and peppers are displayed on pallets adjacent to the entry
aisle and the sights, sounds and smells of delicious food being prepared and served
are everywhere. Cozymel's is not only a fun place to eat excellent food in an authentic
atmosphere; Cozymel's, with an average annual volume of $3.5 million, will contribute
the following to the local economy:
A) 52,870,000 annually through the purchase of goods and services, taxes, wages,
utilities, dues, etc
B) Employment for approximately 80 -100 people
C) Insurance benefits at a substantially reduced rate to individuals with three months
or more tenure.
D) Tuition assistance program for employees interested in continuing their education
E) Utilization of local services such as Security, Janitorial/ Disposal, Delivery,
Maintenance, Repair, and Food and Beverage suppliers
F) Utilization of local banking facilities
G) Approximately S1 million worth of improvements to property and opportunities for
construction related employment during the initial construction phase
H) Participation in charitable and civil promotions / events, contributing an average
of approximately S1,000 per year

"The doctors are in the process of

After Brinker returned to conscious-

He set his sights on April 22, the date

Then, taking a page from his restaurant
management playbook, he and his wife,
Nancy, pulled together a medial turn
"dedicated to getting me back," he says
"That's the spirit me have at Brinker," he
says "If something comes up, )ou get

Doctors dished out some tough medi-

In late March, doctors allowed Brinker
to retum to his home in Palm Beach, Fla
For his first non - hospital meal, he headed
to a local unit of Grady's American GnII -
a restaurant chain opmted by Brinker
international At the restaurant, he reveled
in the relative freedom of wheelchair,
am ass rag customers for opinions and
mingling with employees A few days later,
"I was deter-
mined to get
back, because
all my friends
are here."
he astounded the same employees by walk-
ing into the restaurant.
As March gave way to April, Brinker
became convinced that he could travel to
Dallas to receive the Business Statesman
Award But several close friends urged
him to stay in Florida, saying the four
days required for the trip would be better
used for further rest and rehabilitation At
the last minute, he took their advice and
refocused on his secondan goal - attend-
ing the May 4 meeting of Brinker Interna-
tional's board of directors. This time, he
was not to be dissuaded He arrived hack
at work three da) s ahead of the board
meeting, receiving a standing ovation
from headquarters employees "I can't tell
you how gnu(N mg it was to see all these
things happen - coming back to Dallas,
stung the plane landing, and just coming
back here," he says "It was wonderful "
The board nmstated Brinker as chair-
man and chief executive officer, toles that it
had assigned to longtime associate Ronald
A McDougall following Banker's accident
McDovFall resumed his former dunes as
president and chef openting ofricer
McDougall has indicated that he
intends to stay with Brinker Intemational,
working closely with Brinker, as the)
always have. "Ron and I have been
together for over 20 yean and never have
had a serious daagrcemcnt," Brinker sa%s
34
Brinker cmph2s,2cs that da%- to-da)
management of Brinker international
always has been a team effort "This has
never been a Norman Brinker eompan) or
anybod) else's;' he says "After 1 got hurt
in January, we had a record quarter in
March, with our earnings up some 25 per-
cent The reason is that we're a team
When I'm in a meeting, we resole things
as a team It's not me going in and telling
People what we're going to do "
Brinker founded Steak 3 Me in 1965
and took it public in 1971 before merging
the company with Pillsbun Co in 1976.
Seven years later, he Icft Pillsbury to buy
and operate Chili's Inc , which opented a
small chain of Chili's Grill and Bar
restaurants He since has grown Chili's
into one of the most successful chains in
the nation, while also launching Grady's
American Grill, Romano's hlaarom
Grill, and Spageddies restaurants under
the Brinker International banner.
Although Brinker has limited business
travel and has worked mostly mornings so
he an pursue an afternoon regimen of
strengthening exercises, his role and style
otherwise appear unchanged "He's the
same as he's always been," Cardwell says
"His role has alw ay s been that of the
N isionary, the rntuime leader, the culture -
keeper and the teacher He still has that
role, and he still rills that role "
The accident, though, has changed
Brinker For one thing, it has reinforced
his longstanding belief in the importance
of tcamwurk "A tam of the right pcuple
is so much different than a tam of almust
the right people," he sa) s It also has
Increased his affection for people to new
heights "1 really, really are about peo-
ple," he says "For anyone %%ho's hurt or
injured, I want to be sure the% know I'm
concerned i "ill w rite them a letter,
because that was %cry important to me "
He also has gi%en up polo, a sport he
pla)cd with passion for 32 )ears, despite
surrenng numerous broken bones, a col-
lapsed lung and a se%ere back Injury in
accidents preceding his Januan mishap
"f miss it something terrible," he says
Yet, he still has his lire, his famd), his

Enasting law provides that the Department of Alcoholic Beverage
Control may deny an application for a license if the issuance would,

defines "undue concentration" with regard to applications for

Beverage Control to deny an application if issuance would tend to
create a law enforcement problem, or would result in or add to an
undue concentration of licenses. The bill would change the
definition of undue concentration, and would provide that,
notwithstanding the requirement that the department deny an
application that would result in or add to an undue concentration of
licenses, a license may be issued with respect to a nonretafl license,
a retail on -sale bona fide eating place license, a retail license issued
for a hotel, motel, or other lodging establishment, as defined, a retail
license issued in conjunction with a bear manufacturer's license, or
a wine 's license. if the public

convenience or necessity would be served by the issuance

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: June 20, 1995
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: New Business -City Manager
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
New Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license for off -site consumption beer and wine sales (Type 20) at an
existing Chevron gas station and mini -mart at 232 Main Street (corner of Main and Grand) Applicant Robert
Chow, El Segundo Chevron
RECOMMEND—ED COUNCIL ACTION-
Determine whether or not the public convenience or necessity would be served by the issuance of the ABC
license, thereby approving or denying the license
BRIEF SUMMARY:
At the April 4, 1995 City Council meeting the City Council directed staff to bring all ABC licenses to them for
review The ABC regulations (Sections 23958 and 23958 4) of the Business and Professions Code require that
in areas of "undue concentration ", for most uses, that the City Council determine that public convenience or
necessity would be served by the issuance of the license, or the ABC cannot issue the license
The existing gas station is not in an area of "undue concentration" due to the number of existing off -sale ABC
licenses The ratio of off -sale retail licenses (4 licenses) to population does not exceed the County average (6
licenses) However, the Police Department has determined that there is "undue concentration" due to the
number of reported crimes The ABC regulations define "undue concentration" as 20% greater number of
reported crimes than the average of all reporting districts (RD's) in the City The existing gas station is located
in RD #106 which has 171% greater number of reported crimes than the average The number of reported
crimes is so high since the RD includes the Police Station and all arrests on warrant charges are counted in
this RD, even though the crimes probably did not occur in the RD, or even in the City The majority of warrants
are issued by jurisdictions other than the City of El Segundo for crimes that did not occur in the City of El
Segundo If crime reporting at the Police Department was eliminated from this reporting district, there would not
be an undue concentration in this district
The City has not received formal notice of the ABC license application from the ABC However, the applicant
has submitted an ABC zoning affidavit to staff, which is required as part of the ABC license application
submittal The existing use is located in the Downtown Commercial (C -RS) zone which lists retail sales as a
Permitted Use (20 31 020) The retail sales of alcohol for off -site consumption is considered as retail sales
Neither Police or Planning and Building Safety have concerns with the new ABC license for the existing
Chevron gas station The ABC runs complete background checks on applicants and they conduct a site
inspection prior to issuing any type of license

AB 2wi, Caldera. Alcoholic beverages: retail licenses undue
concentration.
Existing law provides that the Department of Alcoholic Beverage
Control may deny an application for a license if the issuance would,
among other things, result in or add to an undue concentration of
licenses, and the applicant fails to show that public convenience or
necessity would be served by the issuance. Usting regulatory law
defines "undue concentration" with regard to applications for
on -sale and off -sale retail licenses
This bill would instead require the Department of Alcoholic
Beverage Control to deny an application if issumce would tend to
create a law enforcement problem, or would result in or add to an
undue concentration of licenses The bill would change the
definition of undue concentration, and would provide that,
notwithstanding the requirement that the department deny an
application that would result in or add to an undue concentration of
licenses, a license may be issued with respect to a nohretad license,
a retail on -sale bona fide eating place Uomnse, a retail license issued
for a hotel, motel, or other lodging esab)hbment as defined, a retail
license issued in co;juochon with a beer manufaetsaer's license or
a winegrower': lip, if the apphemt shows that p
convenience or necessity would be served by the 3ssnanoa, and with
respect to say other license, Y the loaf governing body of the area
in which the applicant premiw are loaned determines that public
convenience or necessity would be saved by the issuance.
The people of the Sate of CaMbrnis do enact as fallowr
SECTION 1. Section 23958 of the Business and Professions Code
u amended to read.
23958. Upon receipt of an application for a license or for a transfer
of a license and the applicable fee, the department shall make a
thorough investigation to determine whether the applicant and the
premises for whch a license is applied qualify for a license and
whether the provisions of this division have been complied with, and
shall investigate all mitten connected therewith which may affect
the public welfare and morals. The department shall deny an 117 1 3

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: June 20, 1995
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: New Business -City Manager
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
General Plan and Zoning Code quarterly update, discussion of issues raised by Planning Commission and City
Council, and zoning requirements for Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) licenses
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Review and discuss the above items for possible action
BRIEF SUMMARY:
GENERAL PLAN
At the November 17, 1992, City Council Meeting, staff was directed to provide the City Council with quarterly reports
on the General Plan At the October 4, 1994 meeting, the City Council directed staff to prepare a General Plan
Amendment to revise the non - conforming uses section to conform with the Zoning Code non - conforming use
sections and to amend the Land Use Map to reflect the change in land use of Holly/Valley Park from Single - Family
Residential to Open -Space Staff is currently preparing these revisions and will present them to the Planning
Commission At several previous City Council meetings, the Council discussed revising the Floor Area Ratio (FAR)
requirements for the Urban Mixed -Use land use designation and other major amendments to the Land Use and
Circulation Elements These types of significant revisions would require the amendment of the General Plan
Environmental Impact Report, a task which would require the use of outside consultants and the allocation of
additional funds
Staff was also directed to begin revisions to the Zoning Code to improve internal consistency and make other
modifications which were needed to address omissions and recommendations from the Planning Commission and
City Council since adoption of the Zoning Code in November 1993 Pursuant to this direction, the Planning
Commission held a public workshop on February 23, 1995 to review draft revisions to various sections of the Zoning
Code The revisions affect both residential and nonresidential zones, as well as other sections such as Definitions
and Off - street Parking and Loading Spaces Special attention has been given to revise the requirements for certain
residential care facilities for which local zoning is preempted by State law The Zoning Map will also be amended
to change Holly/Valley Park from Single -Family Residential (R -1) Zone to Open -Space (O -S) Zone The O -S Zoning
for a portion of Chevron's Blue Butterfly Preserve just east of Loma Vista Street at Binder Place will be extending
approximately 30 feet farther to the north to reflect the actual size of the property The draft Zoning Code revisions
from the February 23, 1995 Planning Commission workshop, which were previously distributed to the City Council,
are also attached to the report. Although this is not a workshop or a public hearings on these revisions, the packet
has been provided for the Council's information The next quarterly update of General Plan and Zoning Code issues
will take place in September 1995

Where retail sales are listed as a permitted use, the Zoning Code allows the sale of alcohol, for off -site
consumption, at a grocery store, liquor store or other retail business Retail uses, as permitted uses in the Zoning
Code, are approved over - the - counter with a business license that the Planning Division reviews and approves
The sale of alcohol for on -site consumption at restaurants generally requires an AUP. AUPs, in accordance with
Sections 20 72 030 thru 20 72 070 of the El Segundo Municipal Code, are processed in approximately 2 -4 weeks
The decision on an AUP is determined by the Director of Planning and Building Safety (20 72 040) and this
determination is received and filed by the Planning Commission who can request a public hearing If a public
hearing is requested the process would take approximately an additional 4 weeks, due to the notification
requirements of Chapter 20 90 The Planning Commission decision to receive and file can be appealed to the City
Council (20 72 040 and 20 82)
Bars require a CUP in all commercial zones which is a 2Y2-3 month process a tE an application is deemed
complete Often applicants submit incomplete, inaccurate and conflicting information with the application and it
takes several months for an application to be deemed complete The CUP process (Chapter 20 74) requires a
public hearing before the Planning Commission, who is the decision making body (Sections 20 74 080 - 20 74 110)
However, the Planning Commission decision may be appealed to the City Council (Sections 20 74 110 - 20 74 150)
The least time consuming processes, which would provide for City Council approval of all alcohol sales, would be
for retail sales of alcohol for off -site consumption and alcohol sales at restaurants to require an AUP This
determination could still be made by the Director of Planning and Building Safety and received and filed with the
City Council instead of the Planning Commission This revision would increase the time to process applications
by approximately 3 -5 weeks, for a total processing time of 5 -7 weeks CUPS for bars, with a recommendation from
the Planning Commission and approval by the City Council, would increase the time to process applications by
approximately 4 -6 weeks, for a total processing time of 3Y2-4Y2 months, after an application is deemed complete

RE: OPTIONS OF CITY TO REGULATE ALCOHOL USES
Dear Laurie:
This letter is in response to your request to outline the
options that the City has to regulate alcohol uses through zoning
and planning law.
The City may regulate alcohol uses by any available zoning
and planning approval mechanism including the following: allow
use as of right, use subject to an administrative use permit, use
subject to a Conditional Use Permit, or use subject to specific
regulations set forth in Code. The only limitation on the City's
regulation is that they must relate to zoning and planning
issues. The City may, if it chooses to, subject all types of
alcohol uses to a conditional use permit. In addition, the City
can differentiate between different types of alcohol uses and
subject them to different types of planning or zoning
regulations.
The City Council has requested that all alcohol uses be
reviewed the Council. This may be accomplished through either of
the following: (1) if the City chooses to regulate alcohol uses
through an administrative use permit, the review may go straight

from the Director to the City Council. If the City decides to
regulate alcohol uses by a CUP process, the application must
first go to the Planning Commission for a recommendation with
final review and approval by the City Council.
State law requires that applications for conditional use
permits be subject to an appeal within the City. Therefore, the
Planning Commission should, at a minimum, be involved in review
of the application to satisfy this appeal requirement. (see
Government Code Section 65901 - 65904).
