Planning Commission Minutes

Joan Conte, 5575 Noel Drive, Temple City, stated that Cigarettes
4 Less was a convenience store where the patrons "grab and run."
She went on to state that there were no parking problems created
by this store, only the new restaurant that had been built next
door. She stated that she had put thousands of dollars into her
home and as a citizen of Temple City why did she not know about
the area being designated a high -crime area. She expressed
concern about the implication that if this store were allowed to
sell beer and wine that crime would increase in the area. In
conclusion, she stated that the arguments against . having the
convenience store were weak in nature and, secondly, that if the
issue of convenience was really what was at stake, that the
residents of Temple City did not need another bridal shop, but
that they could benefit from having a convenience store to
purchase beer and wine in this particular location.
Bob Chenq, 9150 Las Tunas Drive, Temple City, stated that he
was co -owner of the building with his wife, Lee. He stated that
he had worked as a store manager for Vons in the past and Mr.
San was running his store in a manner that surpassed that of
Vons. He went on to state that the convenience store use was a
good one for this location in that it did not require a lot of
parking; customers could just come and go quickly. He added
that he had loaned two parking spaces to the restaurant next
door. He also gave corrected numbers regarding the square
footage of the building from a commercial appraisal report. He
stated the lot size was 5,149, the downstairs living space was
approximately 2,500 and the upstairs living space was
approximately 1,900. He went on to comment that since he lived
above the business that he watched people come and go and they
had to go out of their way crossing the street to buy beer and
wine, whereas if Mr. San were granted permission to sell these
items, that it would be much more convenient for them. Lastly,
he stated that he was concerned about the reference in the staff
report to the store being in a high -crime area; he had chosen
Temple City as his home to retire in because he had heard what
a safe, quiet community it was.
Chairman Zovak requested Deputy Peterson to clarify the
documents the Commission had been presented with by ABC
pertaining to crime statistics and the nature of the crimes
involved.
•
Deputy Peterson explained that he was not sure how the numbers
were calculated and he also was not sure of the reporting
district that was used as the source. He went on to clarify
that the crime figures for a year for Temple City were ill
substantially higher than those quoted.

Deputy Peterson stated that he could make an assumption that the
Sheriff's Department was comparing Reporting District 0522 to
the surrounding districts.
Chairman Zovak introduced into the record a License Unit
Investigation Report which stated the result of investigation
failed to indicate a basis for protest. He then introduced a
letter from Mel Cunningham, the investigator, asking that the
report be set aside until such time as he was able to gather
more information.
Deputy Peterson stated that he spoke with Mel Cunningham and
informed him of the history of the property as well as
information pertaining to the prior owner. He stated that Mr.
Cunningham had not been aware of the information and therefore
requested that his report be set aside until such time as he
could gather additional information and submit a report with a
corrected recommendation for the property.
Chairman Zovak inquired as to whether the Sheriff's Department
was requesting more time to study the matter.
Deputy Peterson replied that Mr. Cunningham was requesting more
time.
Chairman Zovak inquired of Director Dawson if a restaurant use
were proposed for this location if it would go through the same
type of review process.
Director Dawson stated that it would go through the same type of
process. He further explained that the process was a State law
that had been in effect since 1992 and it required that the City
respond and make a finding in conjunction with a public hearing
for on- or off - premises sale of alcohol.
Commissioner Griffiths inquired as to the size and shape of
Census Tract 4812.01 and how many valid licenses were currently
held within the Tract.
Director Dawson acknowledged the validity of Commissioner
Griffith's questions but stated he did not have answers for them
at this time.
Commissioner Zovak commented that it seemed the reporting
districts were much larger than the census tracts.

Director Dawson agreed with Commissioner Zovak's observation and
further added that he was not sure whether or not the districts
split down the middle of Rosemead Boulevard.
Chairman Zovak inquired of the Commission whether they had any
ideas as far as the Sheriff's Department's request for
additional time in which to gather information regarding the
application.
Director Dawson stated that although the Commission was always
reluctant to continue such items, additional information needed
to be gathered to prepare a complete report, including census
tract maps and reporting district information.
There being no further public input relative to the matter,
Commissioner Seibert moved to close the public hearing, seconded
by Commissioner Arrighi, and unanimously carried.
Commissioner Griffiths agreed that a continuance would give the
Commission the benefit of having a completed application with
additional information and analysis.
Commissioner Seibert concurred with Commissioner Griffiths.
Vice - Chairman Arrighi concurred that more time was needed in
order to gather additional information.
Chairman Zovak also concurred that additional time was needed to
gather information regarding the reporting districts and the
census tract maps in relation to crime reporting statistics not
only for the present case but for future applications.
Commissioner Griffiths moved to continue the matter until such
time as additional information could be gathered and Staff had
additional time to address the concerns which were brought up,
seconded by Commissioner Seibert, and unanimously carried.
Chairman Zovak inquired of Deputy Peterson and the applicant,
Edip San, as to whether they would be amenable to a two -week
continuation. Both agreed to a continuation to August 8, 2000,
the next regularly- scheduled Planning Commission meeting.
Chairman Zovak further added that at that time maybe Mr. Chen
could supply additional information regarding the building
itself.
