The previous liquor license was a Type 42 for On -Sale Beer and Wine - Food not required, at the former "Keg" bar This proposal for a sports theme restaurant would add a new use and eliminate an existing tenant vacancy in the downtown area The applicant has indicated verbally that the proposed hours of operation and for alcohol sales will be Monday through Friday, 11 00 AM to Midnight, and Saturday and Sunday 9 00 AM to Midnight Since this proposal is for the establishment of a bona fide eating place with beer and wine, food would be served Monday through Friday 11 00 AM to 1100 PM, and Saturday and Sunday from 9 00 AM to 11 00 PM The proposed use is located in the Downtown Commercial (C -RS) Zone, and the retail sales of alcohol for on- site consumption is considered an accessory use, which requires approval of an Administrative Use Permit (AUP) The applicant has applied for an AUP to allow on -site alcohol sales in accordance with Section Nos 20 31 030 (B) and 20 72, of the El Segundo Municipal Code Section No 20 72, allows the Director of Community, Economic, and Development Services to make decisions on AUPs The Planning Commission receives and files the decision Approval of an AUP requires that evidence be presented to support findings which ensure the use is compatible with the site and the surrounding uses, is consistent with the zone, is not detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, any potential impacts are compensated, and an ABC license has been or will be issued The ABC review is a completely separate review process from the City's AUP process, with mandatory findings that are regulated by the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control The ABC runs complete background checks on all applicants, as well as conducting site inspections, prior to issuance of any type of license According to the most recent ABC Crime and Arrests statistics prepared by the Police Department's Crime Prevention Analyses Unit (CPAU), the subject site is located in Reporting Distnct (RD) 112 In 1998, a total of 34 Part 1 crimes and 35 arrests, which was 150% higher than the City average occurred in this district In 1999, RD 112 reported 29 Part 1 crimes, which is a 15% reduction from 1998 According to the CPAU, reasons for Part 1 crimes in RD 112, is attributed to auto - related crimes The Chevron Oil Refinery parking lot is located to the south of the project site, and experiences a high degree of auto related crimes A high degree of domestic violence stemming from the surrounding Multi -Family Residential (R -3) Zone, also inflates crime rates in this reporting district The project site is located in Census Tract 6201, and using the 1990 census data, this tract has a population of 8,426 Based on the most current data from the ABC, there are twenty on -sale licenses in this census tract for a license -to- population ratio of 1421, including the subject application request In contrast, the LA County average ratio of license -to- population is one license for every 1,020 residents (1 1,020) or eight licenses for the same license- to-population ratio Therefore, there is an "undue concentration" of licenses for this Census tract in relation to the population compared to the Los Angeles County average In the surrounding area there are other businesses which possess ABC licenses Anthony's restaurant also in the 100 block of Main Street sells beer and wine for on -site consumption, and is located approximately 100' to the north of the subject site The ABC, specifically excludes the City of El Segundo from making a determination on public convenience and necessity However, the City Council should review all findings of "undue concentration" for on -sale liquor licenses contained in this report, and determine whether the City should protest the issuance of a new ABC license P \Planning 8 Building Safety \PROJECTS\500- 525\EA- 51 1 \CCAIS doc 056 CITY OF EL SEGUNDO Types of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) Licenses Counted Toward "Undue Concentration" Calculations ON -SALE -- ON -SITE CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL ONLY License Number Type of Licenses Type 40 0 On -Sale Beer -

As part of its ongoing efforts to attain state and federal ozone and particulate matter (PM) air quality standards, recent studies conducted by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) and other air agencies have shown that mobile source emissions (from passenger cars, trucks, and other heavy -duty vehicles) are the dominant contributors to air quality problems in the South Coast Air Basin (Basin) Mobile source emissions contribute to over 75% of the nitro - een oxide emissions in the South Coast Air Basin In addition, the California Air Resources Board (ARB) recently listed diesel particulate exhaust emissions (to represent all diesel exhaust emissions) as an air toxic contaminant A recent stud) conducted by the AQMD indicates that over 70% of the potential cancer risk estimated from air toxics for the Basin is due to diesel exhaust emissions Gasoline exhaust emissions, too, contain several chemical compounds that are considered toxic It is estimated that 15% of the potential risk is due to gasoline fueled vehicles The South Coast Air Basin has seen improved air quality and reduced levels of toxic exposure over the last 25 years During that time, much of the focus in reducing emissions has been on industrial sources locally while the state and federal governments focus on mobile sources De- spite the large reduction in emissions, exceedances of air quality standards still occur and the av- erage toxic risk level is estimated to be about 1400 in one million As such, the AQMD staff is proposing Rule 1190 to address air toxic issues and provide additional emission reductions to attain air quality standards as early as possible The initial proposed rule will undergo extensive public review. As with any rule development process, the initial rule proposal may be modified to reflect public comments. The final rule proposal to be considered by the AQMD Governing Board in mid -spring or summer of 2000 will reflect the AQMD staff s efforts to craft a rule that will provide air quality benefits and be sensi- tive to financial and operational needs of affected parties What is in the proposed rule? The initial proposed rule will require the public sector and certain private sector fleet operations that have 15 or more vehicles, to purchase lower emitting gasoline or alternative fueled vehicles when adding or replacing vehicles in the fleet In addition, any new fleets will be required to purchase cleaner burning or alternative fueled vehicles. Specifically, the initial proposed rule covers all on -road vehicles including passenger cars, light - duty trucks such as pickups, medium -duty and heavy -duty vehicles The initial proposed rule provides a list of engines and associated vehicle models that would meet the requirements of the proposed rule These engines have been certified by the ARB for sale in California. For light - and medium -duty vehicles, the proposed rule will have little to no impacts on fleet operations since over 60% of current fleet vehicles are passenger cars and light -duty trucks fueled by gaso- South Coast Air Quality Management District - I - (draft February 1, 2000) FEE 17 '00 Oe -05RM P line However, for heavy -duty vehicle operations, currently the majority of engines that meet the requirements of the proposed rule will be alternative fueled vehicles Specifically, who is impacted by the proposed rule? Proposed Rule (PR) 1190 will apply to local, state, and federal governments, special districts such as air, water, transit, and school districts, and commercial airports In addition, private op- erations such as mtra and intercity transit, waste hauling, and street sweeping will be required to puichase cleaner burning vehicles. Also included are private operations at commercial airports such as airlines, taxi services, and passenger shuttle services Why apply the rule to the public sector first? Over 25% of fleet vehicles in the South Coast Air Basin are owned or operated by local govern- ments and special districts The AQMD believes that government agencies have an opportunity to take a )eadeishup role to protect public health by lowering harmful emissions from motor vehi- cles Many government agencies have developed policies to acquire lower emitting gasoline or alternative fueled vehicles In addition, many government agencies have taken advantage of funding programs to offset the additional costs of alternative fueled vehicles Lastly, many gov- ernment fleets have centralized fueling stations and could implement the proposed rule sooner Are any fleets exempt from the proposed rule? Under the initial proposed rule, emergency and rescue vehicles operated primarily by fire and police departments and hospitals would be exempt at this time. In addition, military tactical ve- hicles used for combat operations are also exempted. Lastly, existing contracted services would not be affected by the proposed rule However, other fleet vehicle purchases for maintenance or personnel transport purposes may be subject to the initial proposed rule Exempt vehicles would not be counted when inventorying the number of vehicles in the fleet (Contact number below for more information) When would lower emitting gasoline or alternative fueled vehicles need to be purchased? For public and private transit bus fleets, implementation of the proposed rule will begin from the date of adoption of the proposed rule For fleets with 100 or more vehicles (excluding exempted vehicles) implementation of the proposed rule will begin on January 1, 2001 For fleets of 15 or more vehicles, implementation of the proposed rule will begin on January 1, 2002 What efforts are underway to provide financial assistance and training for the purchase of alternative fueled vehicles? For the pui chase of any vehicles that use conventional fuels such as gasoline, there will be little to no financial impacts For many of the medium -duty and heavy -duty vehicles, certified en- gines are largely alternative fueled such as natural gas (compressed - CNG or liquid - LNG), propane, or other alternative fuels In general, the capital cost of an alternative fueled vehicle is higher than a conventional fuel vehicle, although this difference can often be offset by various incentives that are currently available There are several fiends that the SCAQMD and other sponsors have provided for the purchase of alternative fueled vehicles These include the SCAQMD's Clean Fuels Program and the Carl Moyer Fund AB2766 funds and the Mobile Source Review Committee funds are also available Federal funds are potentially available for transit fleets. In addition, several state funds are available Recently, Gov Gray Davis has proposed $50 million in his budget for next fiscal year to help replace aging school buses with cleaner, safer models AQMD staff is preparing a com- South Coast Air Quality Management District .2- (draft February 1, 2000) pamon report to the rule development package describing current funding mechanisms and future funding needs There is general recognition that the alternative fuel infrastructure is not vet as extensive as the fueling infrastructure for gasoline or diesel Numerous fleet operations have already installed alternative fuel stations at their maintenance yards For others, there is a need to inform fleet op- erators where public access fueling stations are located and what procedures apply In addition, there is a need to explore potential to expand private fueling station operations to enable con- trolled public access Lastly, there is a need to build additional fueling stations in areas where fueling stations are sparse The SCAQMD staff believes that an outreach effort on fueling sta- tion availability and future development is needed for the successful implementation of PR 1190 In addition, initiating public /private partnerships to share existing fueling facilities is an impor- tant aspect to assist in the transition to larger alternative fuel usage demands Relative to maintenance of alternative fueled vehicles, comments range from improved perform- ance and relatively low maintenance to less than satisfactory performance SCAQMD staff is evaluating actual in -use information and is preparing a companion document for the rule devel- opment package addressing these concerns SCAQMD staff believes that training outreach on fueling and maintenance issues is needed Identification of qualified training facilities and guid- ance from successful clean fueled operations will be valuable components of the rule implemen- tation What happens if I cannot find a compliant engine that meets my specific application? The initial proposed rule language is the starting point of the rule development and based on comments received, the AQMD staff crafts additional or revised language proposals Relative to availability of compliant engines, it is the AQMD staff s intent to apply the proposed rule where it is technically and economically feasible. Staff has received comments that the proposed rule should provide for some relief if the situation should arise that there are no available compliant engines The relief could be a full exemption or time extension until such time certified engines become available, in the meantime, the operator could purchase a conventionally fueled engine AQMD staff is continuing to solicit comments on this issue What is the schedule for rule adoption? The AQMD will be holding a third public workshop on the proposed rule on February 16, 2000 at the AQMD Headquarters in Diamond Bar, CA The workshop will start at 9.30 a.m The proposed rule is currently scheduled for the AQMD Governing Board consideration on April 21, 2000 beginning at 9.30 a.m. However, the AQMD staff will inform the Governing Board of any need to move the date for Board consideration if key issues such as financial and infrastructure needs are not resolved Who to contact for questions and information?
