PROJECT
SUMMARY: Long Range Project Number LR21-1017, amending Title 9 and Title 17 of the Temecula Municipal Code to include Entertainment Licenses, further clarify the definitions of restaurants, entertainment, taverns and bars, and provide regulations for private security operators, and establishing noise standards for mixed -use developments with a residential component.
CEQA: Categorically Exempt
Title 14, Chapter 3, California Code of Regulations (CEQA Guidelines), Section 15061(b)(3)
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a Resolution recommending that the City Council adopt an ordinance amending Titles 9 and 17 of the Temecula Municipal Code related to entertainment licenses, further clarifying the definition of restaurants, entertainment, taverns and bars, establishing noise standards for mixed -use developments with a residential component, and providing regulations for private security operators and finding that this ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA guidelines section 15061 (13)(3)
BACKGROUND SUMMARY
Offering entertainment can increase visibility for businesses and help them remain competitive.
Businesses seeking to offer entertainment must currently obtain a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to allow an entertainment use. The CUP process can be considered by some to be too costly and time consuming. This is especially true for small businesses. In addition, a CUP runs with the land and is not tied the owner and/or operator of the business. This essentially allows a CUP to be valid in perpetuity provided an applicant does not pursue any modifications to the original approval. In addition, the CUP revocation process is costly and time consuming for the City. It is important to note that the proposed ordinance does not apply to establishments already in possession of a CUP that currently allow for entertainment. However, the ordinance would apply to all establishments in relation to private security operations.
Revocation of a CUP requires a hearing before the California Office of Administrative Hearings (OAH). The OAH has forty-five days to respond to a request for hearing. Also, a permittee can request extensions or file appeals, further lengthening the revocation process. Findings by the OAH must be heard by both the Planning Commission and the City Council for final action. This process makes it difficult for the City to address businesses that are creating nuisance and/or safety issues in a timely manner.
The City has received Code Enforcement complaints related to businesses that are operating outside the limits of their approved CUP. These complaints typically involve restaurants and consist of excessive noise, operating later than approved hours, overcrowding by exceeding Building and Fire occupancy standards, and the offering of unpermitted live entertainment. In Old Town, the City has created the Metro Team (a division of the Riverside County Sheriff's Department) to improve safety, encourage compliance with approved CUPs, and other regulations.
Members from the City's Code Enforcement, Fire, and Building and Safety divisions accompany the Metro Team to inspect for issues related to building and Fire code requirements.
Municipalities have begun to move away from requiring a CUP for entertainment because of their limitations. Instead, many have adopted ordinances requiring the approval of an entertainment license. These licenses differ from a traditional CUP in two distinct ways. First, they do not live with the land and are instead tied to a business or business owner. Second, they require an applicant to file annual renewals.
As a result of the numerous complaints from residents and business owners, as well as the extensive resources spent on attempting to ensure compliance with existing entertainment -oriented CUPs as discussed above, the City has developed a citywide Entertainment License Ordinance. A draft of this ordinance was reviewed by Planning Commission and City Council subcommittees (non -committee members also reviewed the Ordinance) as well as community stakeholders at the below dates:
• November 17, 2021: Planning Commission Municipal Maintenance Subcommittee • January 3, 2022: City Council Public Safety Ad Hoc Committee • January 6, 2022: Visit Temecula
• January 11, 2022: Old Town Temecula Association (OTTA) • January 12, 2022: Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce Key Ordinance Components
The Entertainment License Ordinance will require revisions to both Title 9 and Title 17.
Revisions to Title 9 will include many of the requirements needed to administer the ordinance.
The ordinance will create three distinct entertainment classes with corresponding hours within Title 9. These hours only correspond to the entertainment aspect of the business. The business is free to continue other operations beyond the stated times. Classes as well their proposed hours are listed below:
Entertainment Establishment Types
Class I Entertainment Establishment (a businesses without alcohol)" means a business offering ancillary entertainment to patrons. A Class I facility does not serve any alcoholic beverages and does not include any dancing.
Class II Entertainment Establishment (a business serving beer, wine, and/or distilled spirits)" means a business with an ABC license that offers beer, wine, and or distilled spirits as an addition to offering ancillary entertainment to patrons. A Class II facility does not include dancing.
Class III Entertainment Establishment (Nightclub, Cocktail Lounge, Bar, & Dance Club/Hall, Pool Hall)" means a business with an ABC license that offers any combination of beer, wine, and/or distilled spirits in addition to offering entertainment to patrons. A Class III facility also allows for dancing. Restaurants with dancing shall be classified as a Class III facility.
Entertainment
Permitted Entertainment Hours of Operation
License Type
Class I
7:00 a.m. — 9:00 p.m. Dail
Class II
7:00 a.m. — 9:00 p.m. Sunday- Thursday; 7:00 a.m. 10:00 p.m.
Friday- aturda
Class III
Entertainment operating hours shall be between 7:00 a.m. — 11:59 p.m. or as required by a Conditional Use Permit that explicitly allows dancing adopted prior to February 2022.
The three classes are designed to encourage family friendly entertainment while also allowing for more intense ancillary entertainment uses such as dancing. For the purpose of providing an example of each type, a Class I license would be ideal for a coffee shop offering an acoustical guitar player. In this example, no alcohol is served in conjunction with entertainment. A Class II license could be utilized by restaurant that would like to serve mixed drinks and offer live music.
In this example, alcohol is served in conjunction with entertainment, but dancing is not included.
Finally, a Class III license is reserved for a business seeking the most intensive forms of entertainment such as a restaurant that offers alcohol and dancing. It is important to note that for Classes II and III licenses, alcohol requests that include distilled spirits will still need to be approved via the traditional CUP process. This process will run independently of the entertainment license and have its own conditions of approval.
The proposed ordinance states that Class III licenses must incorporate security guards as part of their operations. This is because of the anticipated intensity of Class III uses. Staff has learned through consultation with the Metro Team that some business employees are serving as security guards without any formal training or licensing. This has led to several incidents in Old Town that have impacted public safety. The proposed ordinance will contain security guard standards. These standards include:
• Security personnel must have an active license through the California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services
• The security license must be made available upon request by any peace officer, code officer or other official or, if requested by the business, upon pre -compliance review • Business cannot appoint unlicensed staff to the role of security guard • Security personal must wear a highly visible vest or shirt with "Security" and the name of the business
Security guard standards will apply to all businesses citywide upon approval of the ordinance regardless of whether they currently possess a CUP or not.
Revisions to Title 17 will not be as extensive as those for Title 9. Revisions to this title include additions and clarifications to Section 17.34.010 (Definitions and illustration of terms) designed to increase clarity. Three of these definitions are of particular importance because they will define specific uses. The first definition is for "Restaurant (bona fide public eating establishment) with Beer, Wine and Distilled Spirits." The proposed definition is as follows:
"Restaurant (bona fide public eating establishment) with Beer, Wine and Distilled Spirits " Means any establishment at which the primary business is the preparation, service, and retail sales of meals comprising a varied selection of foods, nonalcoholic beverages, beer, wine, and distilled spirits, prepared, served, and consumed on the premises.
To be classified as a restaurant (bona fide public eating establishment) with beer, wine, and distilled spirit sales, an establishment shall meet the following requirements.
1. Be designed and operated in such a way that the sale of alcoholic beverages is incidental to the primary restaurant operation;
2. The sale of any food prepared for consumption off the premises shall be occasional only and clearly incidental and subordinate to the on premises restaurant operation;
3. On any day the restaurant is open to the public for business and engaged in the incidental sale of alcoholic beverages, restaurant services shall be available to the public during all hours of operation. Restaurant service shall include, but not be limited to, an offering and the ability to order a varied menu offoods or not less than five main courses with appropriate nonalcoholic beverages, desserts, and other attendant dishes.
4. No entertainment shall be provided without an active and valid entertainment license.
S. No admission charge can be charged, and no required purchase/donation is required (such as a minimum drink order) for entertainment involving dancing.
6. Establishments that incorporate dancing shall be considered a Class III establishment pursuant to Section 9.10.020.
There are also definitions added for "Restaurant (bona fide public eating establishment) without alcohol" and "Restaurant (bona fide public eating establishment) with Beer and Wine Sales".
These definitions provide that any restaurant that incorporates dancing is a Class III establishment pursuant to Section 9.10.020.
The second definition is for "Taverns and bars". The proposed definition is as follows:
"Taverns and bars " means establishments primarily providing preparation and retail sales of alcoholic beverages as licensed by the Alcoholic Beverage Control Department. Taverns and bars with dancing shall obtain a Class III Entertainment License.
The third definition is for "Entertainment". The proposed definition is as follows:
"Entertainment" means any single event, a series of events, or an ongoing activity or business, occurring alone or as part of another business, to which the public is invited (by advertisement or word of mouth) or allowed to watch, listen, or participate, or is conducted for the purposes of holding the attention of, gaining the attention of, or diverting or amusing patrons including, but not limited to:
1. Dancing by patron(s) or staff to live or recorded music.
2. The presentation of music played on sound equipment operated by an agent or contractor of the establishment. This may or may not include a "disc jockey" or `DJ. "
3. The presentation of live music whether amplified or non -amplified.
4. The presentation of music videos, music concerts or other similar forms of musical entertainment from any source.
S. Any amusement or event such as live music or other live performance which is knowingly permitted by any entertainment establishment, including presentations by single or multiple performers, such as hypnotists, pantomimes, magicians, comedians, song or dance acts, plays, concerts, any type of contest; events with live animals/reptiles, sporting events, exhibitions, carnival or circus acts, demonstrations of talent or items for gift or sale; shows, reviews, and any other such activity which may be attended by members of the public. "
Additional amendments to Title 17 include the following:
• Elimination of uses in Table 17.08.030 (Schedule of Permitted Uses Commercial/Office/Industrial Districts) including "Nightclubs/dance club/teen club/comedy club", "Restaurants and other eating establishments", "Restaurants with lounge or live entertainment"
• Additional requirements for businesses selling alcoholic beverages including presenting a valid ABC license to any official
• Requirements for entertainment establishments related to noise and parking.
Administration
An entertainment license can be approved administratively as opposed to a traditional CUP that must be approved via the public hearing process. The approval will last for one year. Applicants can reapply on a year-to-year basis thereafter on the first business day in February. In addition, an entertainment license can be administratively revoked as a result of one to three violations as described in Section 9.10.160 (Revocations/suspension for violation) of the attached draft 5 ordinance. Revocations last one calendar year from the date the revocation took place after which the business may reapply.
It is important to note that the ordinance does not apply to establishments already in possession of a CUP that currently allow for entertainment. These businesses would become subject to the ordinance if a modification to the existing CUP is proposed and approved. The ordinance would apply to all establishments with regard to private security operations.
Process Improvements
The entertainment license ordinance will produce several improvements for both applicants and City staff. These improvements include:
• City staff will have greater flexibility with regard to administering entertainment citywide • Compliant businesses will benefit from streamlined review and approval process • Non -Compliant businesses will have an opportunity to come into compliance quickly since the City can follow-up in a timely manner.
• Clear standards for entertainment and security guards will be implemented • Quality of life improvements for adjacent property owners, residents, and businesses
LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS
Notice of the public hearing was published in The Press -Enterprise on January 20, 2022.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act Title 14, Chapter 3, California Code of Regulations (CEQA Guidelines), Section 15061(b)(3), the proposed project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review. It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the Ordinance will have a significant effect on the environment.
The proposed Municipal Code amendments provide standards for how entertainment uses are to operate and establish standards for private security operators. These regulations do not increase the intensity or density of any land use above what is currently allowed. Moreover, the noise standards for mixed -use developments established by the proposed Ordinance, are consistent with the standards set forth in the General Plan for mixed -use developments.

SUBJECT: Receive and File Temecula Safe - Massage Enforcement Update (Long Range Project No. LR22-0174)
PREPARED BY: Brandon Rabidou, Senior Management Analyst RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council receive and file the update on massage enforcement.
BACKGROUND: The Temecula City Council continues to place public safety as its highest priority as desired by residents in the City's Quality of Life Master Plan (QLMP). In the spirit of safety, this theme for Temecula is Temecula Safe. One way that the City ensures public safety is by receiving periodic updates from different City Departments and partners agencies on the performance of programs/initiatives.
A recent public safety initiative was the City's 2019 Massage Ordinance update. This comprehensive re -write of the City's Massage Ordinance has incorporated substantial changes to ensure that massage establishments are operating in a safe and compliant manner. Along with updated regulations, the revised Massage Ordinance incorporated administrative changes to reduce permitting confusion and the number of visits that a business owner may need to make for Massage Establishment Permits.
City Staff, as well as our partners from the Riverside County Sheriff s Office will be presenting an overview of the Massage Ordinance, impacts of the ordinance, and next steps to ensure that massage establishments remain Temecula Safe.

AGENDA REPORT
TO: City Manager/City Council
FROM: Randi Johl, Director of Legislative Affairs/City Clerk DATE: March 22, 2022
SUBJECT: Consider Term Limits for City Council Members (At the Request of Subcommittee Members Alexander and Edwards)
PREPARED BY: Randi Johl, Director of Legislative Affairs/City Clerk RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council consider term limits for City Council Members and provide general direction regarding the same.
BACKGROUND: At the January 18, 2022 meeting, the City Council unanimously approved the placement of the subject of term limits on a future agenda at the request of Council Member Alexander. At the February 8, 2022 meeting, the City Council discussed the matter generally and created a subcommittee consisting of Council Member Alexander and Council Member Edwards to review the subject matter further and make related recommendations to the full Council. The subcommittee met on March 8, 2022. While the subcommittee was unable to reach consensus, it had a thorough and thoughtful discussion on the matter and discussed the pros and cons of term limits, the number of terms, and options for breaks or lifetime terms.
As the subcommittee was unable to reach consensus on these items, it recommended that the City Council discuss the matter and provide general direction on the following items:
(1) Does the City Council wish to place term limits for elected officials on the local ballot? (2) If yes, what number of terms would be the limit? Would the limit be lifetime? Depending upon the direction of the City Council, staff will either return with a proposed ordinance for placement on the ballot, table the matter until such time that a future City Council wishes to discuss the item further, or follow other direction provided by the Council as needed.

California Government Code
Government Code Section 36502 (b) specifically states that "Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the city council of a general law or charter city may adopt, or the residents of the city may propose, by initiative, a proposal to limit or repeal a limit on the number of terms a member of the city council may serve on the city council, or the number of terms an elected mayor may serve. Any proposal to limit the number of terms a member of the city council may serve on the city council, or the number of terms an elected mayor may serve, shall apply prospectively only and shall not become operative unless it is submitted to the electors of the city at a regularly scheduled election and a majority of the votes cast on the question favor the adoption of the proposal. "
State Term Limits
In 1990, voters in California imposed term limits on the state legislature. Senators could not serve more than two four-year terms (total of eight years) and assembly members could not serve more than three two-year terms (total of six years). In 2012, voters modified these limits to allow legislators to serve a total of 12 years in either chamber. Other State offices are limited to two four-year terms (i.e., Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of State, Attorney General). https://ballolpedia.org/califomia State_ Legislature
County Term Limits
With respect to term limits for board of supervisors in California, 7 of the 58 counties (12%) limit the terms of county supervisors. In Los Angeles, Santa Clara, and San Mateo counties, supervisors are limited to three four-year terms. In El Dorado, Orange, San Francisco, and San
Joaquin counties, supervisors are limited to two four-year terms. hgps://ballotpedia.or /g Term_limits_in California
City Term Limits
Aggregated data on term limits for cities in the State of California and/or County of Riverside is not readily available. As such, staff aggregated current data on Riverside County cities from scratch polling the cities via email and/or telephone to verify the information. The information was also cross-checked with each cities' municipal code to ensure accuracy. It is important to note that the information included references only those cities that have term limits for their City Council members collectively (i.e., does not include cities with term limits for boards and commissions and/or for directly elected mayor only).

Indian Wells: "No person shall be eligible for nomination and/or election to the office of Member of the City Council for more than two (2) four (4) year terms during his or her lifetime, including, without limitation, terms to which the person was nominated and appointed to office by the City Council in lieu of a General Municipal Election pursuant to California Elections Code Section 10229."
Menifee: "Any person who has served two successive terms or eight consecutive years as a councilmember shall be ineligible to serve again in that office until an intervening period of two years has elapsed."

Perris: "No person shall be elected or appointed to more than three terms as an elected official in the City of Perris. For the purposes of calculating the number of terms in the limitation on terms of office, the terms served by a person elected or appointed to one elected office in the City of Perris shall not be aggregated with terms served by that person in another elected office in the City of Perris. For example, a single person may serve three terms as mayor, three terms as a city council member, and three terms as city clerk."
SUMMARY
As of January 31, 2022, 7 out of 28 cities (25%) in Riverside County have adopted some form of term limits for City Council members collectively. The method by which the term limits came to be in each city varies and could include measures initiated by both residents and council members. It is therefore recommended that the City Council consider the matter of term limits and, if desired, provide staff general direction regarding the same.

Phase I also included an update to the City's Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) Guidelines to analyze Vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT) for CEQA. Phase II is in process and includes an update to the Quality of Life Master Plan (QLMP), reconciling the City's GIS Maps on a parcel by parcel basis, a baseline EIR analysis of the City's Circulation Element, and developing a Complete Streets Policy document. Phase III will include a Fiscal Land Use Study to analyze the City's remaining development capacity and market absorption potential for residential, commercial, and industrial development. The final phase is to work with a General Plan Advisory Committee to update to the General Plan and EIR over an 18-month timeframe. (PETERS) Quality of Life Master Plan Update
On April 27, 2021, the City Council established a Blue Ribbon Committee (BRC) to update the Quality of Life Master Plan (QLMP). The QLMP identifies the City's six core values, including: 1) Healthy and Livable City; 2) Economic Prosperity; 3) Safe and Prepared Community; 4) Sustainable City; 5) Transportation Mobility and Connectivity; and 6) Accountable and Responsive City Government. Projects and programs proposed in the City's Annual Operating Budget and Capital Improvements Program must be consistent with the City's Core Values.

City Staff and Council Members:
As a long time resident of Temecula and a Restaurant owner in Old Town, I want to express my general support for the proposed Entertainment Licenses and the amendments to the Temecula Municipal Code as described in the Planning Staff Report. There are a few clarifications that I would like to propose for the Council's consideration.
Permitted Entertainment Hours of Operation. The clear distinction between Class I and Class 11 appears to focus on offering of alcoholic beverages whether beer, wine or distilled spirits. Whereas the distinction between Class II and Class III is the addition of Dancing as a form of entertainment.
I would suggest the Council consider the hours of entertainment for all Classes of Entertainment be consistent to end at 10:00 p.m. on Sunday through Thursday and 11:59 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. All current businesses should be required to obtain and comply with the Entertainment license restrictions, as this runs independent of the operational hours dictated by the CUP.
As proposed, the application of the Entertainment License would not affect a business with "dancing" specifically allowed per its CUP, while greatly affecting all other businesses with "non -dancing" types of entertainment such as live music. A current restaurant with a dance floor would be able to remain actively open until 2:00 am if currently allowed under a CUP, while all other restaurants with live music would be required to end the entertainment at 9:00 pm or 10:00 pm thus effectively shortening the hours of operation. This would have a significant economic impact on all but a few businesses in Old Town, without targeting the public safety concerns outlined in the Staff Report. Effectively, all Class II businesses would need to comply and all current Class III businesses would continue to create the problems of overcrowding, and excessive noise until 2:00 a.m. that the amendments intend to address by the proposed changes. Consistent application is fair treatment for all.
2. All Current Businesses offering Entertainment and Alcohol Should Be Required to Obtain the New Entertainment License.
The purpose of a CUP is to allow some flexibility in permitted uses of land that might otherwise be prohibited based on zoning ordinances. As stated in the Staff Report, CUP's are independent of the Entertainment License. However, it is clear to anyone who has been in Old Town on most weekends that Front Street shows its Mr. Hyde personality on Friday and Saturday nights, particularly after midnight. This will not change unless the proposed ordinance is applied to all current and future businesses.
Through a simple administrative procedure, all businesses can be defined and regulated under consistent rules. The CUP process involves public notice and public hearings and is necessary to make sure the business is operating consistent with the master plan.
Problems arise when a new business changes the nature of its operations, or a new owner assumes the lease on the property and introduces a new concept that is materially different from what was initially presented under the application for a CUP.
In the example cited in the Staff Report a coffee shop sells to new owner who decides to add music and serve wine thus changing the impact on the city without oversight.
While adding wine has some checks and balance since there would be posting of intent to serve alcohol and hopefully a public hearing.
The real life example of Tabu Sushi reveals a gaping hole in the oversight by the City.
Tabu was a family friendly sushi restaurant that sold its lease and liquor license to a business that represented they would be operating a "Supper Club". No application to amend the existing CUP was filed as it appeared to the Planning Department that the location would be just another family restaurant serving beer wine and cocktails.
However, prior to opening for business, the concept was changed into a 21+ nightclub without any application to the City. This type of change in concept should require notification and public hearings on the impact to the surrounding area. At a minimum, if all businesses are required to obtain an Entertainment License annually regardless of whether it is unchanged, sold or just rebranded, the City would receive advance notice through the License process and not get lost in the vague language of the CUP. All business would be under the same standards.
3. Conclusion
I commend the City for addressing an issue that has been brewing for a while. As a business owner in Temecula I am aware that we all needed to adapt to the new challenges due to the Pandemic. I am grateful for the assistance the City provided to the high impact areas such as Old Town. As a long-time resident of Temecula I have seen this side of town change from primarily Antique Shops to a fun family friendly destination with unique restaurants, wine tasting and micro -breweries. Lately I have seen a trend where people are no longer coming to Old Town for family outings due to the rough and edgy changes brought about by bars operating over -capacity, lines out the doors and spilling onto the sidewalks, and loud music permeating other businesses and residences.
I thank the Council members and City Staff for allowing my voice to be heard.
Sincerely,
Robert Danko
