BACKGROUND: 1. On July 6 , 2017 , C&C Crystal Advisors (the "Applicant") submitted a bus iness license application to the City, noting that "fortune tell i ng -sales of crystals and mise cards -notes -books" were the intended business activities (Attachment "A "). Temple City Municipal Code (TCMC) Sections 4-8-10 et seq. require a fortune teller permit for such a business , subject to approval by the City Council. 2 . In early August 2017 , staff received a complaint from a member of the public that the business was operating without a license. The complainant prov ided a p icture of a flyer in the window at the proposed business location advertising "Psychic Readings by Chloe " with some details about services provided, and a phone number to call to set up an appointment. The complainant also made staff aware of an online review and online advertising for a psychic named "Chloe Kaslo " performing services at the proposed lo cation and with the same phone number as displayed on the sign at the location (Attachment "B"). 3 . On August 16 , 2017 , City staff inspected the proposed business location and found evidence that the busi ness was operating without a business license . The City inspector was greeted by Christian Yanko and a woman identify ing herself as "Chloe Castillo " who gave her age as 22 years old . Staff issued a verbal warning to City Council October 17 , 2017 Page 2 of 5 the Appl icant that the bus iness could not operate until the fortune teller permit and business license were approved. 4. On August 16, 2017 , staff requested that the applicant provide the names of all people who would be employed by the business . The Applicant initially indicated that Chloe Castillo would be an employee of the business , but is currently a minor and would not be doing any psychic readings until she is 18 years old ; she would be selling crystals and doing other administrative work. City staff informed the Appl icant that Chloe Castillo would need to apply for a work permit since she is a m i nor and would need to undergo a Live Scan fingerprint process as an emp loyee of the business . The Applicant replied that Chloe would not be part of the business if her involvement would be an "issue." Correspondence between City staff and the Appl icant regarding th is matter is attached as Attachment "C". 5. On September 6 , 2017 , the City rece ived a formal Community Preservation complaint stating that a reading was done on August 31 , 2017 , and a "cleanse for a curse " was performed . The complaining party believed the work was fraudulent , that the person performing the services was named "Chloe " and appeared to be i n her 20s , and that the business would not refund money for the work . This is a business license violation as the Applicant was operating without a business license . 6 . On September 6 , 2017 , staff vis ited the business location in response to the complaint. Staff observed a sign on the door saying "I'm 2 minutes away" with a phone number, implying that the fortune teller was nearby and could arrive at the location to provide fortune telling services within two minutes . The phone number on the sign was the same number as in the on l ine ads provided by the complainant in early August. Staff observed other evidence that the business was operating , w ith tarot cards and a crystal ball prominently displayed in the entry area and a "Psychic" sign in the window (Attachment "0 "). Staff posted a Code Compliance Notice on the door of the business for a code violation for operating a business w ithout a license . This was the first of two potent ial non-monetary enforcement actions against the business before the City could begin monetary sanctions under the TCMC . 7 . On September 15 , 2017 , staff again visited the location and found evidence that the business was operating , again including a door sign saying "I'm 2 minutes away ." 8 . On September 25 , 2017 , staff received another complaint that "Chloe Kaslo " was doing business at the location and was alternate ly advertising her name as "Chloe " and as "Heather" (Attachment "B"). 9 . On September 27 , 2017 , staff met with the Applicant , the Applicant's agent , and the Applicant 's family member at their reques t. The Applicant's agent expressed thei r concerns that the business license had not yet been approved . Staff explained that City Counci l approval of a fortune teller permit is requ ired before any City Council October 17, 2017 Page 3 of 5 fortune teller business may operate. Staff shared that the business appears to be in violation of the TCMC due to numerous complaints regarding business activity without a license and site visits from Community Preservation staff wh ich found that the business appeared to be operating without a license . The Applicant provided information to refute the complaints and staff observations ; however, the information was not sufficient for staff to change the recommendation in this report. 10 . On October 5 , 2017 , as staff was preparing this report , staff observed an online business listing on Yelp for "Psychic" at the proposed business location (Attachment "E"). In addition to being listed at the same location , the business listing has the same phone number from the sign on the door and online advertisements . Business owner "Chloe K ." states in the listing that she has been a psychic for "over one decade" since she was "11 years old ." The information in the business listing indicates that Chloe does the readings and that she is at least 21 years old. Further, the business listing states that all readings are 50 percent off in September, indicating that the business has continued to operate without a license , despite being issued a Code Compliance Notice on September 6. 11. On October 5, 2017 , the Applicant submitted a letter to the City Council providing information about the proposed business (Attachment "F"). ANALYSIS: TCMC Section 4-8-10-6 requires that the City Council make four findings before approving a request for a fortune teller permit. The findings are as follows: 1. All the information contained in the application and supporting data is true; 2 . The applicant has not, within the previous six (6) months , been convicted of any violation of this section or any law relating to fraud or moral turpitude ; 3 . The applicant appeared in person at the hearing ; and 4 . The applicant agrees to abide by and comply with all conditions of the permit and this section . Based on the information prov ided above , City staff recommends that findings 1, 2 , and , potentially 4 cannot be made for the reasons set forth fully below: With respect to finding number 1, the conflicting information found by City staff when researching the application (i.e ., the Applicant 's own advertising , verbal statements given to the City , and the supporting information) leads to a conclusion that finding 1 cannot be made . It is believed that the information contained in the application and supporting data is not true . Specifically: • The application states that Christian Yonko will be providing all fortune telling serv ices , but online and flyer advertising states that a "Chloe " will be providing such services . In addition , the two complaints rece ived by the City about the City Council October 17 , 2017 Page 4 of 5 business both state that a "Chloe " provided the serv ices being comp lained of; and • Supporting information for the application indicates that Ch loe Cast i llo is a minor who may assist with front desk/sales portions of the business or may not be involved at all. Contrary to this is the presence of a Chloe Castillo at the business location who gave her age to a City inspector as 22 years old and the online Yelp business listing which indicates that her age is at least 21 years old . The conflict among the Applicant's own advertising , verbal statements given to the C ity , and the application and supporting information leads to a conclusion that find ing 1 cannot be made . The third -party complaints provide additiona l reason to reach this conclusion . It can be reasonably concluded from all of the facts in the record that Ch loe will be performing fortune telling services and that it is the des ire of the App licant that Chloe not undergo a background check . In light of the foregoing , and of all of the record , City staff be lieves that finding 1 cannot be made and is recommending denial for this reason . With respect to finding number 2 , TCMC Section 4-8-10-4 requires that any person who engages in fortune telling in the City have a background check performed . The Sheriff's Department performed a Live Scan fingerprint and background investigat ion on Christian Yonke , the stated owner of the business , as the only person named to be performing fortune telling services . Based on the background i nvestigation , t he Sheriffs Department concluded that it had no basis to protest approval of the appl ication . However, given the confl icts among information found in the application , its supporting documentation , the Applicant's own advertisi ng , and the th i rd-party reports , City staff has concern that the Applicant appears to not want Chloe (whether he r last name is Castillo or Kaslo ) to undergo the Live Scan fingerprint process or any other background check . In light of this , City staff believes that finding 2 cannot be made and is recommending denial for this reason. With respect to finding number 4 , City staff notes that the Applicant has been conducting business without a permit, has provided inconsistent information in the application process , and appears to have been untruthful in that process . While the Applicant may voice an agreement to comply with the conditions put on a pe rmit, his own actions have shown that compliance is questionable at best. In light of th is , C ity staff believes that finding 4 cannot be made and is recommending denial for th is reason . The City is cognizant that fortune-telling businesses are specially regulated in Cal if ornia for a number of reasons . First , fortune-telling businesses have a high potentia l for fraud and so local jurisdictions wish to investigate thei r operators bef ore allowing them to open up for business in the jurisdiction . Second , and somewhat contrary to the first , fortune telling raises First Amendment aspects of freedom of speech and freedom of religion , so it is important to treat these businesses and pract it ioners carefully . City Council October 17, 2017 Page 5 of 5 In this case , the Applicant has been inconsistent in the presentation of Chloe and her involvement in the business . The Applicant has also been carrying on bus iness without a fortune teller permit or business license . And the Applicant continues to make contradictory statements in documents submitted to the City, such that it is not possible for City staff to confidently conclude that the business is one that will be free of fraudulent activity and thereby properly subject to First Amendment protections. In light of this , City staff is recommending denial of the permit application . This matter is subject to a public hearing but, under TCMC Section 4-8-10-5 , that hearing has special notice provisions . City staff has provided the requisite notice for the hearing . CITY STRATEGIC GOALS: Regulation of fortune tell ing business relates to the City Strateg ic Goal of Publ ic Health and Safety. FISCAL IMPACT: This decision has no impact on the Fiscal Year 2017-18 City Budget. ATTACHMENTS: A. Business license appl ication and related documents B . Documents submitted by complainants C.

High-piled combustible storage also includes certain high hazard commodities, such as rubber tires , 'Group A ' plastics, flammable liquids, idle pallets , and similar commodities, where the top of the storage is greater than six feet in height. It is very important to contact a fire inspector prior to consideration of storing high-pil ed combustible storage. Many of the permit requ irements must be bu ilt into your building .

(Why) The 3 pies I will send including this one shows web si te that she advertises the temple city office as "Chloe" as wel l as the website as "Heather" in same place saying it's her on her instagram. Don't know her real nam e. I feel she hides it due to unclean b ack ground, Hence Christian is fronting his na me for the license to he lp her run a new business. (Don't believe her name is Chloe if she has a record of some sort she would not give out her true name. I've been researching a lot of things! I So she uses this so no one associate her To real name to avoid clients she already had bad dealings with. I Do believe Kaslo IS her true last name. I believe Christian is her husband. She runs unsavory busine ss. They should both be rejected/banned to run biz due to shady business tactics. Doesn't look good on our temple city to have such dishonest ppl approved to operate and be a risk to the patrons here. You have to think what is it she is hiding? That she is not applying herself? When it's her busses. She's avoiding back ground check! I'm sure of it! They sho ul d demand to get her fingerprints /ba ck ground check before granting any one a license. Since it is her running the show. Look at each one please as there pieces of a sing le page Look s repeated but it's parts of a full page too long for one shot.

I have never h ad to jump tlu·u so many h urdles in any of the business I have ever assisted with, this seems to be a bit excessive. We started this process and paid all the city fees on July 6, 20 17, had the Livescan results and and here we are paying another months rent and w e still can no t open and it mid September now. · I had to even track the Livescan results myself due to the fact we were told the hold up was just the Department of Justice, I called the DOJ myself and I was told on August 22 the res ults had already been received by the requesting party. Chloe is not an employee. She is Christian fiancee. She will not be receiving a paycheck. H er only p urpose in the business i s to assist her husband to be.

Las Tunas Ave. I have gone thru, and cleared a Department of Justice background check, have had the County Fire Department sign the required docwnentation a s required b y the city license department. I have obtained full liability insurance thru a local State Farm Insurance office, acquired a state sales tax account, and in addition, I have at my own personal expense, repainted the front of the building I am renting as to better blend with .the surrounding, businesses. In our m any m eetings with city staff we were not told I would n eed to have a City Council m eeting to appro ve m y application, until I requested a meeting with staff supervisor to see what the hold up was to our having a City Inspec tor come out to the location to clear my unit in order to issue m y license so I could open for business. I had started this process back in May, paid all my fees on July 6 of $1038.50, and I still had not heard from an Inspector. I was informe d it would be a good ide a to put toge ther a little information about the business and any impact I may have on the community surrounding my office and if any environmental impact I might have o n the community. TI1ere will b e no environmental impact; I will have no hazardous items in my facility . I have ample parking in the rear of m y location, as well as street parking i n front of the building. As far as parking m y hours will b e a bit ~erent then m y neighbors the r eby causing no parking problems. I do not expect any more then 3 to 5 clients in my facility at a time. My hours of operation will be Monday thru Thursday 12:00-7:00pm and Fridays and Saturdays 2:00-lO:OOpm I will offer private r eadings as well as Bridal Shower, Engagement Party, Birthday Parties, and Gals and Guys night out fun readings. All of my services are for entertainment only. My fees are simple they are from $15.00 to $50 .00 and parties will be based on how many guest wish to have a reading. I o_ffer all types of readings and offer all types of crystals. And did I mention the reading r oom and m e ditation center will be free for public use. I believe that the area I .am in is zoned for Entertainment that is why I chose the location I see all that this beautiful city is building and I want to b e part of this fast flourishing city. 8808 E Las Tunas Ave Temple City, CA 91780 (31 0} 895 ~8606 &&& &NS7/lffl(j)PJSORS Please I am asking for each and everyone of your blessing to move forward and approve my application.
