The LBMC also requires the City Council to approve the issuance of the Permit if they find that:
the issuance of the Permit at the proposed location is consistent with federal, State, and local laws, rules, and regulations; it will not constitute an undue burden on the neighborhood; the applicants) or responsible persons have not been convicted of any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude or felony offense within the past five years; and, neither the applicants) nor any responsible persons have a history of committing significant violations of the City of Long Beach (City) code and have not provided false or misleading information on their application.

The City Council has the following options: (1) grant the Permit, with or without conditions; or (2) deny the Permit application. Once the Permit is granted, pursuant to LBMC 5.72.120.5, the Permit will be subject to an administrative review by the Financial Management Department every two years. This review process will consist of a multi-department analysis to determine compliance and identify if issues exist. This provision does not affect the City's ability to modify, revoke, or suspend a permit at any time.

For this Permit application, City departments have conducted their investigations in accordance with the LBMC. Attached are the departmental investigative reports, history, entertainment permit application, and floor plan.

The following summarizes the individual departments' findings:

To: Tara Mortensen, Bureau Manager, Business Relations Bureau From: Wally Hebeish, Chief of Police t
Subject: APPLICATION FOR AN ENTERTAINMENT WITHOUT DANCING PERMIT AT LA CEIBA RESTAURANT - 400 EAST ANAHEIM STREET, SUITE A
In response to your request for a recommendation regarding the above-named permit application for Entertainment without Dancing, the Police Department recommends approval, subject to the following standard conditions of operation.

La Ceiba Restaurant is a local restaurant and bar that offers alcoholic beverages, beer and wine, and offers Mexican, Honduran and Salvadorian cuisine. The establishment is located in the 400 block of East Anaheim Street, on the southside of the street. The current owner for the business is La Ceiba L.B. Incorporated. La Ceiba Restaurant has a valid Type 41 (On-Sale Beer and Wine Eating Place) Alcoholic Beverage Control License. This is a new application for the ownership.

La Ceiba Restaurant applied for an Entertainment without Dancing Permit requesting karaoke.

They requested to provide entertainment from 6:00 PM to 12:00 AM, Thursday through Sunday.

Based upon the Police Department's Investigation, The South Division Acting Patrol Commander's recommendation, and the crime analysis, the Long Beach Police Department has determined the public's peace, safety, and welfare would not be adversely impacted by the issuance of this permit, provided the appropriate conditions are imposed and observed by the applicant. The Police Department recommends approval of an Entertainment without Dancing Permit.

CONDITIONS OF OPERATION
The operation of the establishment shall be limited to those activities and elements expressly indicated on the permit application and approved by the City Council. Any change in the operation, which exceeds the conditions of the approved permit, will require that a new permit application be submitted to the City Council for their review and approval.

Unless separately applied for, reviewed, and approved, no adult entertainment, as defined by section 21.15.110 LBMC shall be conducted on the permitted premises. 3) Entertainment activities indicated on your entertainment application shall be restricted to no later than 12:00 AM Thursday through Sunday. Entertainment can begin at 6:00 PM Thursday through Sunday.

The permittee agrees to reimburse the City for all costs associated with excessive police services, as determined by the Chief of Police, required as the result of any incident or nuisance arising out of or in connection with the permittee's operations 7) The permittee shall install and maintain a video surveillance system that monitors no less than the front and rear of the business with full view of the public right-of-way's and any parking lot under the control of the permittee.
