The District Lounge is located in the Historical Downtown Orange Plaza, which is comprised of restaurants, bars, local businesses, and residential housing. Paul's Cocktails (207 W.

Bosscat Kitchen & Libations (118 W. Chapman Ave.) is on the southeast corner of Chapman and Olive and has a Type 47 ABC License-On sale General Eating Place.
Recommendation:
The Police Department is opposed to the applicants request to modify the existing Type 48 (On-Sale General Public Premises) license to include alcohol consumption on the patio area of the premises. This is based off of a review of the listed data from 2019-2022 indicating increased noise, calls for service, crime, and responses from OPD personnel to the location.
Granting this request to modify the existing license is expected to create an undue burden on public safety resources and have an adverse impact on the surrounding community.
However, if the request to modify the existing license is approved, the Police Department requests the District Lounge to adhere to the Police Department's finalized proposed Conditions.

2 Introduction
This Policy and Procedures (P&P) manual was created so that employees have clear and visible guidelines on how to deal with issues that may arise during business operations. Any employee who has a question concerning security, security procedures or issues surrounding the safety rules and regulations of The District Lounge should use this manual. It is to be used by all employees of The District Lounge as a reference and a guide. This guide should be viewed as a living and changing document, meaning that if a new, undefined issue is discovered, management should define the issue, the question or the incident and find a solution for that issue. This solution should then be added to this P&P manual. Any employee who discovers an issue that is not addressed in this manual can and should bring that issue to the attention of management.
This Policy and Procedure manual is a valuable tool that can help employees and management keep The District Lounge a safe and enjoyable place to work and visit for all.
Background
Employees within the restaurant, bar and/or hospitality industry (hereinafter referred to as the "Hospitality Industry") have many areas of responsibility that can cause problems for themselves, the venue and the guests. Issues such as criminal law violations, beverage control administrative violations and civil lawsuits stemming from complaints lodged by guests are the areas that most affect employees within the Hospitality Industry, especially the employees acting as security personnel. This manual was designed to help employees reduce and eliminate potential problem areas.
If used correctly, this manual will help you with every-day duties as well as when out-of-the-ordinary issues arise. Additionally, if you use this manual correctly, it can be a valuable tool for your employer. This manual can help minimize complaints from law enforcement, from the California Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), the Orange Police Department (OPD) and from disgruntled guests. Use it as a reference or use it for continued training, but whatever you do.... Keep it and use it.
Electronic Video Surveillance
The District Lounge uses video surveillance throughout the entire venue and in several locations outside. The video system will record incidents in and around The District Lounge. Coverage with the video system will include the entrances, the exits, the dance floors), the bars, the alcohol service wells, the hallways in and around the venue and the parking areas. Management will have the only access to the video monitoring system and will allow unlimited access to any agency of law enforcement.
Host Ratio
The District Lounge has a capacity of 202 persons. The District Lounge will provide security hosts at a ratio of at least 1:50 or at least 1 host for every 50 guests as listed on venue capacity.

On a night where the number of patrons is expected to reach capacity The District Lounge will have a minimum of two cocktail servers, four bartenders, four security personnel and one manager on duty.
Chapter One
A. Mandatory Compliance
a. It is the responsibility of every security host employed by The District Lounge and every employee acting as a security host or security guard provided by any other contracted security company to learn, abide by and have a copy of The District Lounge security manual. Every guard will also be familiar with the content, instructions and/or expectations of any policy that applies to his/her specific assignment in and around The District Lounge.
b. It is the responsibility of every security host employed by The District Lounge to maintain a current copy of the security manual. Additionally, if the manual is lost, stolen or misplaced, it is the security host's responsibility to obtain a new copy from their supervisor or manager immediately. c. Management expects input from The District Lounge security hosts on the content and possible changes to the current manual or to any new sections that may be added later. In the event of any significant changes to this P&P manual, management will supply the changes to hosts and provide any necessary training so the hosts may become familiar with the changes. d. Management may terminate any employee who violates, disregards or does not follow any of these guidelines. These guidelines are provided to help and protect employees, management, and our guests. They must be followed.
Chapter Two
A. Training & Education
a. All security hosts are required to attend all training events provided or sponsored for them by The District Lounge management, other training companies or other organizations. Training topics that improve your ability to work in the hospitality industry should be considered. The District Lounge will periodically offer training on topics such as identification reading, guest service, liabilities, and fire safety. All employees are strongly encouraged to attend these sessions.
b. All The District Lounge security hosts and management employees will attend the HOST Training Program within 60 days of being hired by The District Lounge. Each employee will be supplied with a certificate of completion from the HOST Training Company and will maintain a personal copy of their own.

Chapter Three
A. Employee Conduct
a. ALL employees of The District Lounge understand and acknowledge that they must, per current State of California law, register and complete a state and national criminal background check with the California Department of Consumer Affairs. They further acknowledge that some criminal convictions that may be found may disqualify the employee from employment. This is state law, and The District Lounge management has no ability to alter this fact. More information will be supplied to security host employees during the interview and hiring processes. b. Security hosts of The District Lounge agree not to commit any act that is in violation of any Federal, State, or local laws. This applies to every employee while at The District Lounge or when they are not at work. Such violation could be considered a violation by ABC regulations, Orange Municipal Code and subject the security employee to termination. c. Security hosts of The District Lounge shall be permitted to work in an atmosphere free from discrimination and sexual harassment.
Discrimination is unlawful. It creates a negative atmosphere that reduces work productivity, moral, and destroys professionalism. Security employees shall not discriminate against, nor sexually harass any The District Lounge employee, any The District Lounge entertainer, or any guest of The District Lounge. Such violation subjects the security host to discipline or termination. Additionally ALL employees are required to undergo the statutorily required sexual harassment training provided by management.
i. Discrimination is defined as: Unequal treatment of employees or applicants for employment based on their sex, race, color, ancestry, 9 religious creed, national origin, physical disability, mental disability, medical condition (including cancer, HIV and AIDS) age, marital status, family care leave, political beliefs, or sexual orientation. d. It must also be understood that you cannot predict how guests and fellow employees will take any joke or off-color comment that you may make. Do not make off-color comments thinking that only the person you are talking to can hear you and that this person will also not take offense to it. Simply put, do not make off-color comments while you are at work. e. Security hosts of The District Lounge agree not to use any Federal, State or locally illegal or illicit narcotic or drug. Such violation could subject the employee to immediate termination. Should The District Lounge management have reasonable suspicion that a security host might be under influence of an illegal substance, they may ask the employee to submit to a drug test.
f. It is expressly prohibited for any security host to consume alcohol before or during their shift at The District Lounge. Should management have reasonable suspicion that a security host has consumed alcohol as they begin their shift or during their shift, they may ask the employee to submit to a breath test or other chemical test to determine the presence of alcohol. g. Security hosts of The District Lounge agree to follow the rules and regulations contained within this P&P manual. Any act or omission of any section of this manual is grounds for immediate termination. 10 Chapter Four
A. Employee Dress Code
a. Security workers are tasked with keeping guests safe while they enjoy The District Lounge. This task can be made easier if all security workers are easily recognizable by employees and guests. A modified uniform is mandatory for all security workers of The District Lounge. b. All security workers must be neat and clean when they are working their shift.
c. This uniform must not be accessorized with chains, patches, embroidery (other than employee name), or other clothing that may be interpreted by guests as excessive, aggressive or "macho".
d. Black gloves can be considered intimidating and are not to be worn while working as a security host. If hand protection is desired during security duties, opaque or latex gloves are acceptable forms of hand protection and will be supplied by management. For employees assigned to outside duties during winter months or during inclement weather, gloves can be worn after approval from management.
11 Chapter Five
A. Narcotics Use and Possession
a. Illegal Use or Possession by Guest
1. Any employee observing or having reason to believe that a guest is in possession of or is using any illegal drug, narcotic or controlled substance, MUST:
i. Not initiate solo contact with guest alone.
ii. Immediately notify a supervisor & call for back-up security. ili. Wait for management's direction before proceeding. If management deems it appropriate to make contact with the guest, security hosts will assist where needed.
iv. Complete a detailed written report of incident.
v. If guest becomes violent or other circumstances arise, management should direct security to call local authorities. vi. If a guest is removed from the venue, security, using flashlights, should walk the area of where guest was contacted to see if any illegal substance was dropped on the floor.
2. Management shall call authorities to report.
b. Illegal Use or Possession by Employee or Contracted Employee
1. Use of any illegal drug, narcotic or controlled substance is absolutely prohibited while employed by The District Lounge. It must be remembered that any illegal drug activity within The District Lounge, by guests, employees or entertainers can subject the business to criminal or administrative sanctions. This activity will not and must not be tolerated by employees or management.
12 2. Drug testing may occasionally be requested of employees. Failure to either take the test or failure to pass the test may be grounds for immediate termination.
c. Found Narcotics
1. If any illegal substances are found in or around the property of The District Lounge, management must be notified immediately.
Managers have two options when suspected illegal substances are discovered
i. Option One
1. The employee discovering the item should immediately notify the nearest employee to come to their location so two people can observe the item and two people can be
involved in securing the item correctly and safely.
Having two people involved in this process will reduce
the possibility of a single employee being accused of
violating this policy or of stealing the drugs.
Additionally, using two people will assist in proving that correct action was taken regarding the item found.
2. One of the employees must notify management to assist them.
3. The employee, with another employee or a manager will place the suspected item in a bag and lock it in the safe immediately. Again, two employees should observe
this. The use of rubber gloves supplied by management
will be used when handling suspected substances.
4. Orange Police Department (OPD) should immediately
be called to notify them of the "Found Narcotics" on the premise. (Police non-emergency number is 714-765-
13 1900.) OPD has many duties and responsibilities
nightly. One of those responsibilities is to respond to calls from parents, citizens, businesses, and employees who find illegal or dangerous items. Law enforcement
agencies have a set policy on what their actions are
regarding found narcotics. Calling OPD to take
possession of found narcotics WILL NOT affect your
liquor license. Calling OPD is also very important to
show that the employees don't want illegal substances
on their premise.
5. When OPD responds, the officers) will be escorted to the office safe by management. The officers will
remove the item and take possession of it. Document
the officer's name and their identification number along with the time the officer took possession of the item.
6. If OPD does not or cannot respond to the venue by the time the venue closes, the item will be destroyed by
management and one other employee. This destruction
is to be completed in the following manner:
a. While using gloves, management and one
employee will remove the item from the safe and
destroy the item by flushing it down a toilet. OPD
will again be called to notify them that the bar is
now closed and that two employees destroyed the
item by flushing it down a toilet.
ii. Option Two
1. If management deems appropriate, FDP will not be
called but instead, a manager and one employee will take 14 the substance to the nearest restroom and destroy it as detailed above in Option One.
2. If any illegal substance is found, a detailed report must be written explaining who discovered the item, what employee acted as a second witness, what the substance looked like, what it was packaged in, where it was discovered, who called OPD, what time they were called, if they ever responded and if they did, their names, and if they didn't respond, who destroyed the item and how it was destroyed.
This documentation will assist The District Lounge management or ownership in defending themselves in any future civil or criminal cases involving any illegal substance, found or otherwise.
3. Employees are encouraged to attend training on narcotics and other drugs so they may better understand the dynamics of use, possession, packaging and what the drugs look like.
4. Under no circumstance will any employee of The District Lounge place any suspected found narcotics in their pocket or on their person while waiting for management or authorities to respond. Such action could possibly subject the employee to arrest for possession of that illegal substance.
15 Chapter Six
A. Employee Equipment
a. To properly complete the duties of a security host at The District Lounge, hosts should have a minimum of equipment. This equipment may be used for safety or just to make the job easier for the host. Management has the final decision on what is allowable equipment. Although the job of a security host can be completed without such equipment, here is a simple list of possible equipment.
i. Flashlight - This light should not be the full sized, 4-D Cell battery type, but instead, the smaller 2-AAA battery Maglite® or the rechargeable Streamlight® Stinger™. These two flashlights are small enough for the host to put them in their pocket. Additionally, these lights are too small to use as an impact weapon.
ii. Ultraviolet Light or Black-Light - This light will be used to screen identification for holograms.
ili. Radio's - Communication is an important component for any security host. If used, each host must have a radio that can be clipped to their belt. This allows the hosts hands to be free for other tasks.
Additionally, each host must have a functioning headset. All radios must be able to synchronize on one single frequency. Management has the final approval on all radios.
b. Additional optional equipment might include a jeweler's loop or negative magnifier and an identification recognition book.
c. Under no circumstance will pepper spray, mace or any other chemical agent ever be carried by any The District Lounge security host during their work shift. Even if an employee has completed the state mandated training for chemical agents, they are expressly prohibited from carrying or using it 16 while employed at The District Lounge. The unauthorized use and violation of this section could cause serious injury or death to employees or guests and subject the security host to immediate termination and or legal action. Additionally, no guest should be allowed to bring pepper spray into The District Lounge.
d. Any other equipment that a host wants to use must be approved by The District Lounge management before it can be used on the premises. 17 Chapter Seven
A. Working the Door
a. There is no more important job than that of the security worker assigned to work the front of the house at the door. This position is normally the first contact guests have with The District Lounge. This employee must dress sharp and act as an ambassador for the venue. They are an extension of management and ownership.
b. Additionally, they must attempt to stop problem guests before they enter the venue, they must stop over-intoxicated persons from entering the club and they must stop minors from entering the venue with a bad or borrowed form of identification. There are several important points to remember about the door position.
c. The duties of the employee working the door position at The District Lounge is to cheerfully greet guests, screen identification, screen guests for possible over-intoxication, screen guests for appropriate attire, assist with monitoring capacity, review any VIP cards or VIP lists, to keep management abreast of any door complaints or issues with OPD and if there are any violent issues within the club they may be called to hold the lines and notify OPD for assistance.
d. This position must never be left un-staffed. If the employee must leave this position, they are required to obtain a one-on-one employee relief or a manager to relieve them.
e. In an emergency, this employee must remain at their post. Other security hosts can handle any problems while the front of the house security host can monitor the line or hold entry until the problem is resolved. f. The door position and the door walkway is not a place for socializing and hold informal staff meetings. Employees and entertainers are not to use this 18 location to gossip or hang out during slow periods of a shift. Management does not want guests to be intimidated by having to walk a gauntlet of hosts or employees as they enter the club.
g. Although all employees should know the capacity of the venue, the front of house workers must know the total capacity of the club and the exact numbers they have in the venue if ever asked.
19 Chapter Eight
A. Guest Service
a. The District Lounge management is absolutely committed to providing the best possible guest service to our guests. To that end, all employees of The District Lounge should act as if they are "Owners" and "Management" in respect to dealing with guests and any problems they may encounter while at The District Lounge. The mind-set for every security host should be to satisfy the guest without compromising safety.
b. All security hosts will make every effort to "Welcome" guests of The District Lounge and should always "Be nice" and "Respectful" to guests, even if the guest is being asked to leave or is being escorted out of the venue.
c. All The District Lounge employees are expected to resolve problems in a friendly, professional and courteous manner. If the problem cannot be resolved to the satisfaction of both the employee and the guest, the employee should seek immediate assistance from management. d. The District Lounge employees must remember that providing the best possible guest service will enhance the total experience for the guest while they are at The District Lounge and also aid the employee in the event they must intervene in a guest-to-guest dispute. Your commitment to providing great guest service will determine whether many guests ever return to our establishment.
e. Management will not tolerate any blatant discourtesy and disrespect towards guests of The District Lounge. Failure to treat guests with respect and failing to "Be Nice" may result in immediate termination of discipline of the employee.
20 f. Employees are encouraged to take courses or classes on communication and body language. Having these two skills will allow security hosts to better provide positive and quality guest service.
21 Chapter Nine
A. Identification Procedures
a. Screening identification (ID) of a guest must be completed with the utmost of care. The screening process is the first line of defense in stopping under- age drinkers from entering The District Lounge. Additionally, screening ID is normally the first contact guests will have with any The District Lounge employee. The ID screener must make this first contact a positive one. b. When tasked with checking ID at the door position, security hosts will use an industry standard regarding who to screen. The following rules should be adhered to.
i. Anyone appearing under the age of thirty (30) should have their ID screened
ii. Anyone who appears to be near 21 years of age should be asked their age. This question is important as any minor decoy used by ABC or OPD must be honest about their age if asked.
c. The ID screener must remember to be friendly and outgoing to the guests entering the bar. Instead of simply saying, "ID please", the screener should attempt to have a small conversation with the person in front of them.
Simple conversation practices such as asking the guest; "How are you doing tonight?" or "Where are you coming from tonight?" or other simple practices such as giving them a nice comment about their clothes, their jewelry, etc. will often times help put the guest at ease and show them you are not an enemy.
d. Identification that will be accepted at The District Lounge must be issued by a state or federal agency. The general guidelines of ABC will be followed with few exceptions.
e. The District Lounge will accept the following forms of ID:
22 i. Current valid, non-expired state driver's license. ii. Current valid, non-expired state identification card. ill. Current valid, non-expired military identification. Because current military ID's do not list the physical description on the rear, any question of the identity of the person should force the ID checker to ask for another form of valid ID.
iv. Current, non-handwritten United States Passports or Visa's. v. Federal Immigration & Naturalization Services Identification (I- 551 or Green Cards)
f. Screening of the actual ID will be done in a methodical and precise way.
An example of a screening routine follows although employees may create and follow their own routine providing it follows The District Lounge procedures and covers the important points necessary.
i. If the guest appears to be under that age of 30, ask for the ID. ii. If the guest appears to be near the age of 21, ask the person their age.
ili. Have the person remove the ID from its holder (wallet or purse) iv. Once in the hand, feel the entire ID for nicks, cracks, and scrapes. v. Look at the ID and do a cursory screening for any common security features used
vi. Look at the photo on the ID while looking at the person in front of you. Holding the ID in front of the persons face will aid in finding flaws commonly seen when a borrowed ID is used by a minor. Check the photo from top to bottom in this possible order; Hair line, Hair type or cut, Eyebrows, Nose edges, Ears, Lips, Chin and Neck lines.
vii. Look at the birth date and any red areas that might state the actual age of the person.
23 vill. Look at the expiration date.
g. In 2000 the State of California passed a law allowing any liquor-licensed establishment that is presented a fake, borrowed or otherwise bad form of ID to confiscate that ID. Per state law, if an ID is confiscated the following two events must take place.
a. A receipt must be given to the guest whose ID is confiscated. This receipt can be of any style and can contain any information related to the ID and the guest.
b. The ID must be sent to any law enforcement agency within 48 hours. (The law does not outline what law enforcement agency the ID must be sent to).
h. When a security host or another employee discovers a borrowed, fake, or otherwise bad form of identification, the policy of The District Lounge is to confiscate the ID from the guest and follow the procedures outlined above in section h.
i. It must finally be remembered that all employees working at The District Lounge are relying on the expertise of the security staff assigned to the door to properly screen ID and catch the bad or borrowed ID's before they purchase alcohol. If a server provides alcohol to a minor, the server of the alcohol could be arrested or receive a citation, not the security host. 24 Chapter Ten
A. Weapons
a. The only weapons that will be allowed inside The District Lounge will be those brought in by on-duty uniformed or undercover law enforcement officials.
b. Under no circumstance will any The District Lounge employee bring a weapon to work. A weapon will be defined as, but are not limited to:
i. Handgun
ii. Knives (Small pocketknives and blades within pocket "Leatherman" tools are authorized)
ili. Switchblades or Butterfly knives
iv. Saps
v. Brass knuckles
vi. Nunchukas
vii. Any other object that could be used as a weapon such as a metal pipe or wooden club.
c. Under no circumstance will any guest be allowed to bring any weapon into The District Lounge.
d. If a weapon is detected on a guest, management will be summoned as will two or three additional security team members.
e. Occasionally off-duty law enforcement officers will enter The District Lounge to enjoy the atmosphere as a guest. They may, on occasion, be carrying their off-duty weapon. It must be remembered that if this off-duty officer becomes intoxicated and gets into an altercation that weapon may inadvertently be displayed or used. Management must weigh the option to allow the off-duty officer to enter with their weapon, to ask the person to lock the weapon in their car or to ask the person to leave the bar. 25 Chapter Eleven
A. Law Enforcement
a. Having and maintaining a good working relationship with local law enforcement is absolutely necessary to run a safe establishment. It is required that all The District Lounge employees attempt to work with local authorities in every situation.
b. Occasionally, uniformed, or plain clothes law enforcement officials will want to enter The District Lounge to conduct routine police investigations or ABC premise inspections. These inspections are randomly completed by officials and normally are quick and painless.
c. Security workers or the door person will never delay any official from entering The District Lounge for any reason. Such delay could subject the employee to arrest for delaying a peace officer in the performance of their duties.
d. Door security workers should notify management immediately when officials arrive for an inspection or an investigation. e. One employee should "shadow" officials during their inspection or investigation on The District Lounge property. This "shadow" will not be involved in the inspection or investigation and will only be there to observe any issues that may arise. This "shadow" will prepare a detailed report of the police visit. The "shadow" will not take the place of a management representative who must also stay with the official. The "shadow" should be open and conspicuous, not overt. They should be there to respond to questions and comments.
f. By accepting the ABC liquor license, The District Lounge agrees that any area in the licensed premise is open to inspection. This includes all areas within the physical walls of The District Lounge. This includes offices, 27 bars, storage areas, locker rooms, bathrooms and any other closed or confined space within The District Lounge. Delaying officials could result in arrest of the employee.
28 Chapter Twelve
A. Off-Duty Law Enforcement
a. Occasionally off duty law enforcement will visit The District Lounge as a guest. They are to be treated with the same guidelines as any other guest. b. It will be entirely up to the management as to whether off-duty law enforcement officials will be allowed preferential treatment such as head of line placement or not paying the cover charge. Additionally, they will not be allowed to violate any The District Lounge policy or procedure such as carrying a weapon in the venue.
c. In the event that an off-duty official is involved in any altercation, management must always consider calling OPD to make a report or to deal with the official. Management must consider this issue and have a plan that has been discussed with security hosts.
i. Occasionally, when an off-duty official is involved in an altercation they may identify themselves as "cop" or "police".
This notification might change the way that the security host operates. However, if only a verbal notification is given and no other documentation is seen, management must be told
immediately, and the decision must be made to call OPD or not. d. For issues related to weapons being carried into The District Lounge by off- duty law enforcement see Chapter Ten.
29 Chapter Thirteen
A. Intoxicated Persons
a. It is not against the law to be intoxicated or to allow an intoxicated person into a liquor licensed establishment such as The District Lounge, however, it is against the law for an obviously intoxicated person to be served alcohol or to allow them to consume alcohol. The law describes drunk in public as someone who is obviously intoxicated and cannot take care of themselves or is a danger to others. This definition is in the opinion of the actual law enforcement official when they step into The District Lounge and observe guests.
b. Every The District Lounge employee, especially security staff and servers, are expected to know and be able to recognize the signs and symptoms of someone who is over-intoxicated from alcohol. Although the following list is not all of the possible outward signs to look for, here are some of the more common signs to help you identify someone who is over-intoxicated:
i. Slurred speech
ii. Excessively loud
iii. Bloodshot eyes
iv. Abnormally loud
v. Short or rude
vi. Slack facial muscles
vii. Un-kept clothing appearance (shirts incorrectly buttoned, zipper's unzipped)
vili. Using tables or the bar for balance
ix. Staggering or weaving when walking or standing
x. Lack of balance
30 c. If a security worker or door person suspects that a person may be over- intoxicated before they enter the club the worker should politely offer to call the person a cab so they may go home. The host should also let the person know that they will not be allowed inside the bar. REMEMBER; be very cautious when approaching a possibly over-intoxicated person alone.
If at all possible, always have at least one other host, preferably two other hosts present when you decide to talk to a possibly over-intoxicated person. d. If you turn a person away at the door for being over-intoxicated, try to see if they have a friend to take them home. If they do not and are alone, offer them a taxi and be ready to call one for them. An additional step may be to offer them a bottle of water to go on the house.
B. Stopping Service to Over-Intoxicated Persons (Cutting Off) a. It is not against the law to be intoxicated. However, it is against the law to be so intoxicated that a person is a danger to themselves or to other people.
Generally, law enforcement observes the person, talks to them and then will make a fair determination as to whether the person is so intoxicated that they can't care for themselves. The District Lounge security hosts should do the same fair evaluation when deciding to stop service to a guest. b. Any employee may approach you and ask for you to assist with stopping alcohol service and asking a person to leave The District Lounge. This includes management, servers, bartenders, and other security members. c. Caution must be taken when it has been determined that a person is over- intoxicated and must have alcohol service stopped. Violence surrounding removing a guest's beer or drink is common if not done with tact and caution.
d. Management must always be notified when a guest is being cut off and should always be present to observe the incident.
31 e. Never approach any guest to stop alcohol service alone. Always have at a minimum of 2 hosts, preferably 3 or 4 hosts present.
f. If at all possible, try to have a friend of the intoxicated person assist you with stopping the person from drinking and leaving the venue. g. Any employee can make the determination to cut off a guest; however, security should always be called to manage the guest in case they become angry or violent.
h. If a server, bartender, or security host decides that a guest needs to be cut off; all other employees must respect that decision and back the decision of the first employee without question. Failure to do so will seriously undermine moral and could be cause for termination.
i. It must be remembered that bartenders and servers may not always recognize that a guest is over-intoxicated. Guests may have others order their drinks or they may be able to control themselves while the server or bartender talks to them. Security hosts must be vigilant and ever aware of over-intoxicated persons and never be worried about approaching anyone to talk to them and if necessary, stop alcoholic service.
j. As soon as possible after the guest is cut off, all other bartenders, servers, security workers and managers MUST be notified of the person being cut off so they can observe and keep the person from consuming any additional alcohol.
k. Finally, when a person is cut off, The District Lounge employees may offer the person a free bottle of water, or possibly some sort of food and a taxicab. As you discuss this with the person it is always a good idea that if there is not a taxi already near The District Lounge, call one for the person anyway. If the over intoxicated person who is cut off decides not to take the taxi and wants to walk away or possibly drive home, all employees 32 should feel comfortable to tell the guest that police will be called if they decide to drive intoxicated.
1. Proper documentation must be completed whenever a guest is cut off or asked to leave. At a minimum, the information to collect for documentation should be the guest's name, their clothing description and how they left the venue.
Chapter Fourteen
A. Unacceptable Guest Behavior
a. Occasionally a guest will be asked to stop a certain activity that may cause an incident with another guest or employee. These occasions can be very dangerous to security workers and must be handled with the utmost care. b. Besides over-intoxicated guests, there are several other unacceptable behaviors that a guest may be doing. The following list should be used as a guide to help security workers decide whether to approach a guest:
i. Throwing any object at other guests, employees, or entertainers (Napkins, popcorn, straws, money, etc.)
ii. Touching, grabbing, or pinching any employee or guest. If an employee or guest is touched and feels it was inappropriate, they should be asked if they want the person to leave. If they say, "yes" and there is a reasonable basis to believe the accusation, that guest may be asked to leave. We want to create and maintain an environment free of sexual harassment by guests.
ili. Being excessively loud or vulgar.
iv. Trying to pick a fight.
v. Arm wrestling.
vi. Beating on any equipment.
vii. Jumping on the bar, stage, or other areas where guests are generally prohibited.
vili. Any other activity that may cause harm to the guest, another guest, an employee, or any entertainer.
c. If the guest refuses to stop the offending behavior or is caught doing this activity again a management must be notified immediately. 34 d. If a guest is contacted for any of the described activity, they will be asked politely and with respect to stop the activity and told why so they understand. They should be told that if they don't stop this activity, they would be asked to leave the bar. They should also be told that if they are caught doing this type of activity again, they would be asked to leave the bar.
e. As mentioned, several times in prior chapters, never approach the guest alone to ask them to stop offending behavior. A calm guest can turn violent quickly without notice.
f. If the activity has not stopped, notify management and request other hosts.
Allow management to talk to the guest. All security hosts should act as "back up" for management.
Chapter Fifteen
A. Conflict Resolution and Use of Force
a. The use of force by security workers is the largest reason for criminal charges against hosts and also the largest reason for civil judgments against nightclubs, bars, or restaurants. At The District Lounge, management demands that employees learn and use effective communication skills to lessen the possibility of any use of force
b. By law, every liquor establishment must provide for a safe environment for any guest and for any employee who works there. To provide this safe environment, it is recognized by the management of The District Lounge that the limited use of force may occasionally and rarely be necessary. c. The District Lounge does not have a "Hands Off" policy, but instead, security hosts of The District Lounge will use communication skills, tact, restraint and control in dealing with potentially violent guests and only as a last resort will they put their hands on a guest.
d. The District Lounge does have a no "Head & Neck" policy. This means that security hosts will not grab any guest by the head or neck. This includes head locks, full nelsons, half nelsons, carotid restraints, choke holds and any other hold that involves the head or neck. The only exception to this rule is if grabbing the guest's head or neck was done to stop that guest from using force on another guest or employee of The District Lounge. Any security host that violates this policy may be subject to immediate termination.
e. It is the absolute policy of The District Lounge that any employee who must use force must only use the amount of force necessary to stop a threat from a guest towards another guest or towards an employee. This means that if a security host is struck once and the guest then stops fighting, the 36 security host may not strike the guest because the threat has already stopped. This specific point must be completely understood by every security worker. If a security worker uses any excessive force after a guest has stopped aggression, that employee is subject to immediate termination and criminal lability.
f. The following are specific areas that must be adhered to with regard to aggressive and combative guests where force is unavoidable. Security hosts should avoid the following:
i. Strike any person in the face, head, or neck unless this strike was to stop deadly force being used by the guest on another guest or another employee or themselves.
ii. Use any force that goes beyond stopping the threat from the combative guest.
iii. Use their flashlight as an impact weapon unless the use of this flashlight as a weapon was to stop the guest from using deadly force.
Any security host who violates any portion of this section will be subject to immediate termination.
g. When The District Lounge employees approach a fight between guests they must immediately start to yell to the guests; "Security, Stop Fighting". This first level of force may help stop the fighters or anyone else that might want to get involved in the fight. This will also tell all involved what security hosts want done.
h. Once security hosts place their hands on the combatants, they must continue to say; "Stop Fighting". This further tells all involved what they want done.
Additionally, when the fighters realize that security hosts are grabbing them, the fighters may decide to turn on security and fight them. 37 i. After the fighters are separated and security hosts are trying to calm them down, security workers must be ready for the fighters to turn their aggression towards them. If this happens, security hosts will then change their function from separating the fighters to subduing and detaining them.
When this shift takes place, security hosts must start yelling; "Stop Resisting" until the fighter is in handcuffs, restrained or stops resisting. j. If local authorities are requested to assist The District Lounge employees, it is mandatory to obtain the officers name and identification number that was in charge before they leave. The best practice is to ask for a business card from all of the officials and make notes as to what their jobs were on the rear of the cards.
k. Any use of force by any employee must be properly documented in writing.
The security worker, using whatever level of force, must write a detailed report. If other employees assisted, they must also write a detailed report on their actions. All reports must be written before any employee leaves at the end of their shift. Failing to provide this report may subject the host to immediate termination.
1. Management must review all reports from employees for completeness and accuracy. If an employee has difficulty writing their report, they may elect to have another employee write the report based on the employees' statements. The employee will read the statement and then sign it stating that it accurately portrays what they saw, said or did. m. Occasionally, a guest may attempt to destroy The District Lounge property.
The minimal force necessary must be used to stop this destruction of property. All proper force guidelines must be followed for stopping the guest who is caught destroying property.
38 n. REMEMBER, any use of force must be considered a last resort. Using verbal commands and requests along with body positioning may stop many violent situations before they escalate.
39 Chapter Sixteen
A. Removal of Guests
a. It is understood by management that on occasion a guest will act in such a manner that dictates they be asked to leave The District Lounge. It is also understood by management that on occasion the guest will not desire to leave of their own accord and will have to be escorted out by security workers. Before a guest is removed physically, management MUST be notified to speak to the individual.
b. If it is decided by The District Lounge employees that a guest must be asked to leave, security hosts will not act alone. It is expressly prohibited for any The District Lounge employee to attempt to remove a guest alone. c. Management must be present for any action surrounding the removal of guests.
d. If the guest decides to leave on their own, caution should still be taken to assure there is no surprise attack against any The District Lounge employees. Again, no guest will be escorted from The District Lounge by a single security host, even if they decide to leave on their own. Additionally, The District Lounge security hosts will not put their hands on the guest who is walking out of the venue on their own.
e. If the guest is leaving on their own, employees are advised to stay a minimum of 5 feet behind guest. If traveling up or down stairs with the guest that is leaving on their own, stay a minimum of 6 feet behind the guest. Finally, never assume guests leaving on their own will not turn violent, always expect the worse.
f. If the guest declines to leave on their own, a manager will attempt to convince the guest to leave on their own. The manager may tell the guest that they must leave, or they may face charges of trespassing. 40 g. As a last resort, after management speaks to the guest, security workers may have to physically remove the guest with the least amount of force necessary. When this is done, care must be taken when placing hands on the guest. The potential for violence goes up when hosts attempt to place their hands on guests who are intoxicated or angry.
h. When a guest is restrained and being escorted out, all extra security hosts not involved must know a guest is being removed. Extra hosts should work to clear a path or warn other employees working the door so they may stop the lines. This provides added elements of safety for the removed guest and employees.
i. If, during removal of the guest, any other The District Lounge guest is assaulted, that guest must have the opportunity to make a private person's arrest before the assaulting guest is allowed to leave. j. If, during removal of the guest, any The District Lounge employee is assaulted, that employee must have the opportunity to make a private person's arrest before the assaulting guest is allowed to leave. k. When any guest is removed from The District Lounge for any reason, a detailed report will be written, and management will review the report for accuracy.
1. If during the removal of any guest anyone involved is injured, medics should be considered to evaluate the injury. This is especially important for guests who are injured or who claim to be injured
m. It is also the policy of The District Lounge that nothing in this section or anywhere else in this policy manual that prohibits any security host or other employee from acting to stop a guest who is so combative or dangerous that their actions could cause great bodily harm or death to another employee or guest. This may include intervening and placing their hands on a combative 41 guest immediately and before management or other hosts can be requested for assistance.
42 Chapter Seventeen
A. Report Writing
a. There are two methods to documenting incidents at The District Lounge.
One is a full report, and the other is an incident log. A report is larger, longer and contains much more information. An incident log is short, perhaps a paragraph or a few lines on a page.
b. Incident logs will be used for minor issues such as an abandoned ID, guests caught drinking in the parking lot, refusing entry, and guests who are cut off and leave without any violence. There may be other incidents that fit this category that are not listed.
c. The incident log may be an actual logbook or individual pages with incidents documented on them. However minor incidents are documented, it is the policy of The District Lounge to keep these minor incidents for 2 years.
d. Report writing is a major component of limiting The District Lounge liability involving any incident. Management realizes that although important, report writing can be boring and tedious. Nevertheless, reports must be completed in a timely manner and with the utmost accuracy.
Attempting to remember an incident 18 months after the incident is extremely hard and a well-written report will aid the employee to remember important facts.
e. All reports must be completed before the employee leaves at the end of their shift.
f. Reports will be written for all of the following instances:
i. Any fight or violent incident on any portion of The District Lounge property.
43 il. Any injury to any employee or any injury to a guest of The District Lounge.
ili. Any use of force by an employee.
iv. Any action taken by law enforcement in or on the grounds of The District Lounge. This action could be an arrest in the parking lot, a police officer walking through of the premises, or if a guest is so violent that police enter to assist security workers. This action could also be from Fire Marshals, Code Compliance or Health Code Inspectors.
v. Any confiscated narcotics or any found narcotics on the premises of The District Lounge.
g. If at all possible, due to the prevalence and the use of "Date Rape" drugs, a report should also be written if an The District Lounge employee is concerned for the welfare of an over-intoxicated female guest leaving The District Lounge with a male guest. This report should contain as much information as possible surrounding any other guests she is leaving with and any vehicle she is leaving in. Additionally, this report should also contain all of the female guests' outward physical symptoms of intoxication or of being under the influence of any substance.
h. Any employee who fails to use either incident logs or reports to document incidents or issues at The District Lounge is subject to immediate termination. If any employee is not sure if they should write a report or incident log, they should err on the side of the better, more thorough report. i. It is understood that on occasion, a security host of The District Lounge may not have the correct training or education to write a proper report. In these situations, another security host or manager may write the report for that employee as they tell the story to the writer employee. When the report is finished the first employee will read the report then sign their name to it 44 along with a statement advising that the report was not written by them but was read and was exactly what they told the writer employee. j. Management will review all reports for accuracy and completeness. k. Reports will by kept for a period of two years.
45 Chapter Eighteen
A. Banned or 86'd List
a. This list is maintained by management and covers several serious offenses that can be committed at The District Lounge. Here are just a few of the offenses that can cause a guest to be banned for life or 86'd for life. i. Anyone who gets into a fight in the bar or in the parking lot. ii. Anyone who brandishes a weapon. This includes a gun, knife, bat, broken bottle, glass, or any other weapon that can cause serious bodily injury.
iii. Anyone caught using or selling any narcotic.
iv. Any guest who refuses to pay an entertainer. (Management Decision)
v. Any chronic drunk or any guest who after a certain number of drinks always becomes a problem to the staff of the bar. b. This list is not all-inclusive and there may be other activities that may require banning a guest for life. All employees should have input to management as to whether a certain activity should cause a guest to be banned for life.
c. Management reserves the right to ban a guest for a shorter period of time if that punishment is deemed appropriate for a certain guest. This shorter banned list will be judged on a case-by-case basis per each individual guest's activity.
d. Any employee who knowingly allows any guest who has been deemed banned for life to enter The District Lounge without prior approval of senior management may be terminated.
46 e. No prior 86'd guest can be removed from the banned list without managements consent. No other employee has the authority to remove someone from the banned list.
47 Chapter Nineteen
A. Injuries to Guests
a. Management must be notified immediately about any guest or employee injury.
b. If a guest is injured during an altercation with another guest or security, medical attention should be sought for the guest. If paramedic's respond and the guest refuses care, a detailed report should be completed by security.
c. Security personnel are not doctors and will not decide as to whether the person has a serious enough injury to require medical care. Always err on the side of caution even when deciding to call paramedics for a guest, even if the person tells you they do not want assistance.
This manual may be adjusted time to time as may be required. Maintain a full and accurate copy of this manual and know its contents.

300 East Chapman Avenue
Orange, CA 92866-1591
RE: Land Use Project Application for Orange Circle Lounge, Inc. dba The District Lounge 233 W. Chapman Avenue, Orange, CA 92866
Dear Madam or Sir:
We are pleased to announce that our office has been engaged by The Orange Circle Lounge, Inc. dba The District Lounge to process a conditional use permit and/or other required entitlement application(s) to allow or otherwise grant the appropriate entitlement permitting the expansion of the existing patio area to include the rights of on-site sales and consumption of alcoholic beverages under Applicant's existing Type 48 ABC liquor license for the premises located at 223 W.
Chapman Avenue, Orange, CA 92866, as described more fully herein.
REQUEST
The Applicant will file an application with the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control for a premises expansion to include the patio as part of the licensed premises.
This license authorizes the sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits for consumption on the premises where sold; where minors are not allowed on to the premises and food service is not required.
This project will allow legal accessory use of the patio space, which historically has included service of food and beverages since its inception. The outdoor patio consists of approximately 493 square feet (net usable).
BACKGROUND
Mario Marovic is the owner and principal of applicant Orange Circle Lounge, Inc. As a second-generation restaurateur he is the owner of several Orange County restaurants and cocktail bars. An Orange County native, he attended Villa Park High School, graduating in the class of 1991. He attended the University of Southern California, earning his Bachelor of Science degree in business with an emphasis on entrepreneurship, and later returned to USC to get his master's May 2, 2022
City of Orange
Re: Land Use Proiect
degree in Business Administration. Marovic's business model of preserving and maintaining local bars and restaurants has proved successful. Taking cherished locations, honoring their history while making them relevant to new patrons is what makes his formula so effective.
PROJECT
The Applicant and its principal, Mario Marovic, have operated The District Lounge since 2004, after purchasing it from the original owners of Los Vacitos restaurant, which was establisher n 1976. Originally operated as a Type-47 On-Sale General Eating Place, the City of Orange approved The District's transition to a Type-48 license On Sale General Public Premises in 2010.
The Type-48 license currently maintains a status free from disciplinary action and/or disciplinary history from the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.
To continue with the current restaurant and bar trends, Marovic took advantage of the 2020 pandemic shut down to update the location and rethink the operations to stay relevant with the needs and wants of todays dining and bar patrons. This included adding extensive sound proofing to the interior ceiling and walls, mounting signage asking patrons to be considerate of resident neighbors, and maintaining outside hedges and walls that assist in deflecting noise and provide privacy.
The ancillary use of the patio to serve patrons in a space that was deemed safe during the unprecedented pandemic conditions, continued after pandemic restrictions were lifted. This use was not new per se to the premises, as former owner of Los Vacitos, Sharon Galvin notes in her letter dated January 27, 2022, the patio was consistently used by patrons for drinking and dining and was an essential part of her business for over 50 years. However, to remain compliant with the City of Orange and California Alcoholic Beverage control standards the Applicant hereby seeks approval from the local and state authorities to provide customers with an amenity that is now offered at almost all dining and bar locations in Southern California.
In order to ensure that use of the patio meets with the City's standards, Applicant proposes the following:
1) Points of entrance and egress onto the premise will be through the front entrance only.
The gated entrance located on the patio will be for emergencies only and will have signage notifying patrons of such use along with having a triggered alarm system when opened.
2) Hedges separating the patio from the neighboring property on the Northeast side will be maintained but allowed to grow to maximum height to provide barriers for noise. 3) Hedges will be added to the current landscaping outside the patio fence on the North side facing the parking lot for neighboring business Taco Adobe to allow for additional noise barriers and privacy.
4) A sail shade will be added above the patio area to provide patrons with a comfortable dining experience as well as maintain an additional noise barrier to any neighboring residents. The shade is not visible to any pedestrians or vehicle operators using the surrounding streets and/or sidewalks. It is only visible via the parking lot directly behind the premises, which currently is enclosed by two auto repair businesses who are May 2, 2022
City of Orange
Re: Land Use Project
either no longer in operation and/or have disheveled exteriors of peeling paint and tangled barbed wire atop unmaintained barriers.
5) All security and alcohol management policies will be maintained on the patio as they are within the indoor area of the premise.
6) Applicant will provide security outside the premises covering all parking lots, sidewalks, and adjacent areas Thursday through Sunday.
7) Outdoor use of amplified music or televisions will be prohibited, and Security personnel will maintain noise levels in compliance with Exterior Noise Standards per Municipal Code §8.24.040.
There will be 3-6 employees per shift (including management). The amount of security staff shall be maintained per the Security Personnel policy enclosed herein. All alcohol shall be displayed and served from the affixed bar on the premises.
The Applicant has been the business principal for almost twenty years, thus he is dually invested in the success of the bar operation and maintaining the surrounding value of the neighborhood in which the premises is located. Applicant currently provides security outside the premises covering all parking lots, sidewalks, and adjacent areas Thursday through Sunday. As the Applicant has vested interests in providing premier service to his clientele and maintaining the welfare of the property, ensuring compliance with the City standards for selling alcohol will be the Applicant's highest priority.
PERMITTED USE PER MUNICIPAL CODE
Per Orange Municipal Code Section 17.30.030 the Planning Commission has the authority to take action to grant or deny Conditional Use Permits for sale of alcoholic beverages.
The premises is located within the Old Towne Mixed Use 15 zone, which permits Applicant's current operation as a bar. Expansion of current use to allow accessory use of the patio does not violate the City's municipal code or standards of permitted use.
APPLICANT'S MISSION
In keeping with the successful formula established through the many restaurants owned and operated by the Applicant's principal, Applicant seeks to develop The District into an establishment that stays current with the times. In today's pandemic aware climate, that means offering patrons an area to drink and dine that is conducive to various patron's needs that now include social distancing and spaces with open ventilation. Applicant seeks to maintain the historic charm of Old Town Orange, while deftly navigating the dual aesthetics of the Orange Plaza's historic significance and night life destination location. ***

CONTROL AND CLEARANCE OF PARKING LOT/SIDEWARLD/QUEUING AREA When the first two security personnel have clocked in one will be instructed to do a physical count to establish our current head count. Once the first security member has completed a count they are to set both counters to our current head count.

Security personnel will be in constant communication with each other and managers throughout the night.
The District Lounge security personnel will be required to perform periodic patrols of the immediate parking lot to ensure no loitering littering, graffiti or illegal consumption of alcohol or narcotics.

If force is required in any way security personnel are required to follow the strict procedures that have been set forth and signed by each security staff member established by The District Lounge. These procedures include notifying Orange Police Department as soon as it is safe or situation allows Attached is a copy of our incident report we use if force is necessary or if a guest is injured. Also Attached is our policies and procedures for handling an aggressive guest
INTOXICATED PERSONS
Once an over intoxicated guest has been identified, the security member will notify the manager. At that point all serving staff will be notified that the person in question will no longer be served alcohol. If the person in question is with a group of people the manager and a member of the security staff will approach one of his/her sober friends to possible assist in getting the person in question an alternative form of transportation home. As according to California law it is illegal to serve or has a person who is obviously intoxicated in your establishment.
If the person in question is alone a manager accompanied by a security staff member will approach the guest and inform them that we will no longer by law be allowed to serve them alcohol. At which point the manager will offer an alternative means of transportation i.e. Taxi or a friend to pick them up. If the person refuses and insists on driving the security staff member will then keep the person in a question engaged conversation while The District Lounge manager on duty will call Orange Police Department and notify them of the situation providing them with any pertinent information.
It is The District lounge's policy to assist an intoxicated person in finding an alternate means of transportation home other than driving.
VERIFYING AGE/CHECKING IDENTIFICATION
When greeting customers, Security personnel will be responsible for making sure that the guest entering is of age, has a current California accepted bona-feed ID. The ID should be current and offer a physical description, have a photo and show date of birth to be 21yrs of age or older.

CONCLUSION
We at The District Lounge understand the importance of being proactive when it comes to security situations. It is important to be firm and impartial. We also stress to our security staff to stick to the facts when dealing with a situation. Opinions and personal feeling may not and cannot be a part of decision making when it comes to the safety and control of the guests. We also stress the importance of communication between server's security and managers. That is why whenever we have security staffs on duty all security and managers will be wearing a radio to help aid in communication and professionalism. We have a managers involved in any security related issue whenever possible. All security personnel are instructed never to handle a situation by themselves. We take a great pride in having a knowledgeable friendly and professional security staff.
We at the District Lounge also understand the importance of police involvement in altercations or other specific security issues. It is important to be willing to work with Orange Police Department to help us insure the safety of our guest and pedestrian walking by our establishment. We encourage notes comments and support of Orange Police Department.

RI: Outdoor Patio at The District Lounge
Dear Ms. Shea:
I am writing to you today because I understand there is a question regarding the history of the outdoor patio at The District Lounge located at 223 W. Chapman Ave. in the City of Orange.
I am the former owner of Los Vacitos, which was a restaurant located at the site that is currently occupied by The District Lounge. I purchased this property with my husband in 1976 and I owned the business up until the time I sold it to its current owner Mario Marovic in 2004. I retained ownership of the land following the sale of the business. The outdoor patio was already on the property at the time I purchased it in 1976, and it was on the property when I sold my business to Mr. Marovic.
The outdoor patio has had a seating area since its inception and has been consistently used for outdoor dining, drinking, and generally as a place that customers could gather. This outdoor patio was an important part of my business and has been there for 50 years or more I am available to answer any questions you may have regarding the outdoor patio.
Sincerely,
Appieran
Sharon Galvan

See Attachment "A"
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission approves Conditional Use Permit No. 2760-09 to change Alcoholic Beverage Control License Type 47 Resolution PC 30-10
(On-Sale General - Restaurant), to a Type 48 (On-Sale General - Bar) for an existing 3,340 square foot restaurant/bar within Plaza Square based on the following findings:
SECTION 1 - FINDINGS
1. The project must be consistent with the goals and policies stated within the City's General Plan.
The Police Department's General Plan Safety Element Goals requires the City to maintain an adequately manned and equipped police force, maintain crime prevention programs designed to protect residents and property from crime, and be directly involved in the review process for Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) applications. One of the Police Department's pillars of successes is to reduce crime, while two of its Strategic Plan goals are to provide for a safe community and enhance/promote quality of life in our community.
With the applicant's new security plan, Alcohol Management Program and additional monitoring of patrons would improve crime prevention and reduce calls for Police Services at the establishment.
2. A Conditional Use Permit shall be granted upon sound principles of land use and in response to services required by the community.
Granting of the Conditional Use Permit would allow conditions to be placed on the operation of the establishment to ensure that it is managed so that there is not an increase in calls for service, in the operation of a bar that serves the local community.
3. A Conditional Use Permit shall not be granted if it will cause deterioration of bordering land uses or create special problems for the area in which it is located.
The proposal to offer alcoholic beverages is not anticipated to have any adverse impacts on surrounding land uses or create special problems due in part to the new conditions proposed along with the operations of new security measures of the operator. In addition, the operation of the restaurant is subject to the regulations contained in the applicant's Alcohol Management Plan, which establishes procedures for monitoring the sale of alcoholic beverages.
4. A Conditional Use Permit must be considered in relationship to its effect on the community or neighborhood plan for the area in which it is located.
The proposal is not anticipated to have adverse impacts on neighboring land uses within the area of mixed commercial uses in the Limited Business area. There is, however, one "sensitive" land use, a Community Church within 100 feet. With the new security measures and Conditions of Approval in place, no adverse impact is anticipated.
A Conditional Use Permit, if granted, shall be made subject to those conditions necessary to preserve the general welfare, not the individual welfare, of any particular applicant.
Resolution PC 30-10
With the new conditions in place providing a regulated operation to serve and protect the general welfare of the community, rather than the individual welfare of the business.
