INTRODUCTION
The operatlon of a retail Wlne store w1th Wlne tastlng at the
site of a former Wlne shop on Montana Avenue 1S proposed.
Var10us aprpovals of this proJect have been prevlously acted on
by both the Planning Commission and the Cl ty Council. As
detalled In the staff report, the wine shop use has a complicated
hlstory due to the number and type of both City and State ABC
approvals and appeals, together with physlcal, operatlonal, and
ownershlp changes.
However, the essent1al request approved by
the Planning Commlssion and now before the Clty Council is for a
wlDe store, lncludlng pre-purchase Wlne tasting, and Ilmited wine
tasting classes.
This report recommends that the Clty Council uphold the decislon
of the Planning Commission and approve Condltlonal Use Permit

(CUP) 94-008 to allow the upgrade from a Type-20 (Off-Sale Beer
and W1ne) alcohol 11cense to a Type-21 (Off-Sale General) alcohol
license 1n con]Unctlon w1th the wine store. The Planning
Commiss1on approval also amended Cond1t1onal Use Permit 90-074,
wh1ch or1ginally approved W1ne tast1ng. The amendment allowed
the W1ne tast1ng to be relocated from the f1rst floor to the loft
area on the second floor.
On July 6, 1994, the Planning Commission voted 4-0, with one
abstention, to approve the app11cant' s request for CUP 94 -008
This action has been appealed by the app11cant, Robert Picone,
Counc11member Ken Genser, and Stephanie Barbanell The appeal
statements are conta1ned 1n Attachments A-C.
BACKGROUND
The previous tenant at th1s locatlon, The Montana W1ne Company,
went out of business on January 4, 1994. A Conditional Use
Permit (CUp 546) was approved by Plann1ng Commission on November
2, 1988 to perm1t the 1ssuance of a Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer &
W1ne) for the operation of a 2,625 sq. ft. bakery and retail wine
shop (tenant spaces #A and #B). Approx1mately 1,500 sq.ft. of
floor space was used for the Montana W1ne Company (tenant space
B). Odeon Bakery obtained a lease for the remaln1ng port1on of
the building on August 9, 1988 Odeon Bakery and the Montana
Wine Company are two separate bUSlnesses and the bakery was not
considered part of the Montana W1ne Company's prem1ses by the
State Alcohol Beverage Control agency (ABC).
- 2 -
On March 12, 1991, a Conditional Use Permit (CUP 90-074) was
approved by the Clty Council on appeal. This CUP allowed wine-
tastlng and Wlne tasting classes in conjunction wlth a Type-42
(On-sale Beer and Wine for PubllC Premlses) alcohol llcense. At
that time, expansion of the establishment east lnto the adjacent
1,200 sq. ft. retall space (tenant space #C) was also approved.
The wine shop subsequently expanded into tenant space #C, but it
lS unclear durlng what perlod of time the wine shop occupied that
space That retail space is now occupied by Emack & Bo110'S, a
retail ice cream & frozen yogurt store. Tenant space #C was
approved by ABC for expansion of the Type-20 (Off-Sale Beer and
Wlne) alcohol llcense on February 4, 1992. The Planning
Commission approved the wine tasting in the loft area on the
second floor, but when the approval, on appeal, was upheld by
City Council, the approval relocated the Wlne tastlng from the
loft area to an area on the ground floor at the rear of the
store. The wine tasting area approved by the ABC, (Attachment R)
was an area 14' x 17' on the ground floor at the rear of tenant
space #B only.
The Montana Wlne Company had dlfflculty complYlng wlth ABC
regulations regardlng thelr Type-20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine)
license. A California statute in effect since 1985 requires that
for a Type-20, 50% of the gross sales be non-alcohollC retall
ltems. Unable to meet this criteria, since Wlne sales were almost
100% of gross sales, the preVlOUS owner lndlcated that thelr only
practical option was to change the license type to a Type-21,
- 3 -
which allows general sp1r1ts sales without the non-alcoholic
reta~l sale llm1tat1on.
On June 2, 1992, a Conditional Use Perm1t (CUP 91-041) was
approved by C1ty Council on appeal. This CUP allowed an upgrade
from the existing Type-20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine) to a Type-21
(Off-Sale General) Cond1tlon #16 of that approval required that
ABC approvals be obtalned within one year of the CUP approval
One gO-day extension of th1S tlme perlod was permitted. ABC
approvals were not obtained during th1S perlod and the approval
expired, however the approval for the Type 42 license remalned
valid as th1S was a separate and previously act1vated approval.
The current appllcatlon is similar to the one approved in 1992,
however, the current applicant 1S a new operator, unrelated to
the previous owner
The applicant, Robert Plcone, lntends to operate a retail wine
store with some Wlne tastlng classes and wine tastlng available
to customers to ald In their selectlon of wines The general
spirits sales would include a l~mlted amount of quality spirits
and liqueurs which would complement the retall wine sales.
Planninq CommlSS1on Act10n
In July 1994 the Plannlng CommlSSlon approved the proposed
project with numerous condltions. The Commission' S d~scussion
focussed on the proposed Wlne classes and on accesslbllity
lssues. The Commlssion modlf1ed several cond1tlons of approval,
- 4 -
changing the amount of wine that could be consumed at the wine
classes, Ilm1t1ng class size to no more than sixteen persons to
address park1ng concerns, a:1d deleting a condition concerning
sale of "convenience-s1zed" bottles Wh1Ch the C1ty Attorney
adv1sed was pre-empted by the State of Callforn1a Although a
deta1led analysis of access1b1l1 ty issues was not available at
the time of Commission action, the Comm1ssion adopted a condition
requ1r1ng conformance w1th d1sabled access standards
Appellant Genser's Concerns
Counc1lmember Ken Genser appealed the dec1s1on of the Plann1ng
Comm1SS1on because of concerns regarding the parking available at
the sub] ect location and d1sabled access to the W1ne tasting
classroom (Attachment G). One of the findings that must be made
in order to approve a CUP for an alcohol outlet 1S that traffic
and park1ng congest1on will not occur as a result of the
discretionary perm1t Councilmember Genser ma1nta1ns that if
wine-tasting classes are offered 1n early even1ng hours, there
may be a parking def1c1ency
The appl1cant, in response to this concern, prepared a study of
the available parking 1n the lot at 625 Montana, and on the
street wlth1n a one block radius from the Montana/Seventh Street
intersection. The study (Attachment J) monitored the parking
situation from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm, Monday through Fr1day evening,
and 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm Saturday and Sunday during the week of
August 1-7, 1994. In review1ng thlS data, staff observes that
- 5 -
there is no regular pattern to the numbey of park1ng spaces
available at any given time.
There were, however, some parking
spaces available at all times.
The park1ng lot had ava1lable
park1ng all times throughout the week.
There were never less
than ~en spaces available 1TI the parklng lot on Monday even1ng
and all day Sunday.
The least number of parking spaces
ava1lable, both 1n the parklng lot and on the street, occurred on
Thursday even1ng when only 12 park1ng spaces were available 1n
the park1ng lot.
The peak parking period occurred on Thursday
even1ng, approximately from 6:45 pm to 7'45 pm.
In order to verlfy ::he informat1on prov1ded by the appl1cant,
Staff conducted a random spot check of ava1lable parking spaces
SepteMber 15-23, 1994. A compar1son of staff's park1ng check and
the appl1cant's survey 1S shown below:

Based on the spot check, the appllcant's tally of avallable
parking spaces appears accurate.
Staff's spot checks ind1cated
that at times more street parking was available than the
applicant's tally indicated.
The cond1t1ons of approval limit
the number of people attending wine tastings and W1ne educational
- 6 -
classes to a maximum of slxteen people.
According to the
applicant, on average, 75% of people attending wine classes
attend as part of a couple, minimizing the amount of add1t1onal
traffic expected for W1ne classes.
Most classes would be
conducted during evening hours, when retail customers would be
expected to be relat1vely few 10 number.
Even assuming that 50%
of the attendees arrive together, the wine classes would create a
demand of twelve spaces.
ThlS,
comb1ned with a parklng
requ1rement of 5 spaces for the reta11 W1ne shop, results 1n a
maX1mum parking demand of 17 spaces.
Based on the parkln
gsurvey, th1S demand would be satisfied by the avai:able on-s1te
and off-site parking.
Councilmember Genser's appeal also addresses the issue of
disabled access.
Condition #3 of CUP 94-008, requires the
applicant to review the d1sabled access plan with the C1ty'S
Director of Planning to make any necessary changes to achleve
compllance.
In response to concerns regard1ng the dlsabled access to the W1ne
tasting loft, the appl1cant's plan for accessibility 1S as
follows.
A The store w1ll ma1ntain a table on the ground
floor of the store Wh1Ch will be available at all
times when wine-tast1ng and/or educational classes
w1Il be conducted. The table, large enough to
accommodate two people, wlll be located in a
spec1fled area and will be available for pre-
purchase wine tastlng and educat10nal classes by
any d1sabled indiv1dual or other person unable to
walk up the stairs to the store's upper level.
- 7 -
B. The table will be prepared with 1dent1cal
amen~ t~es as prov1ded 1n the upper level,
1nclud1ng the same general appearance, identical
wines in identical amounts, and all course
materials or handouts. For pre-purchase W1ne-
tast1ng, the 1dent1cal select10n of W1nes w1II be
available downstairs as upstairs.
C. There w1II be a sens1t1ve, two-way intercom
system between the downstairs table and the
upstairs educat10nal class. To promote soc1al
interact1on, the 1ntercom w1II enable ~nd1V1duals
upstairs and downstairs to hear one another.
D. Lecturers w1II be encouraged and directed to
acknowledge and commun1cate d1rectly w1th any
participants in the ground floor table as an
alternative location for W1ne tastlng for those
persons who are unable to get up the sta1rs.
E. The owner w1II post a sign informing
patrons of the availabil1ty of the ground floor
table as an alternat1ve location for wine tasting
for those persons who are unable to get up the
stairs.
F. The owner wlll provlde physical assistance
to any person seeklng ass1stance ln getting up the
sta~rs. On an ongo1ng bas1s, the owner will
educate and encourage hlS staff to be sensltlve to
the spec1al needs of disabled people.
G. The owner w~ll design the floor plan of
display shelves on the ground floor to accommodate
handlcapped circulation.
The applicant hlred Robert Gorski to review the proposed plan for
accessibll1ty.
Mr.
Gorski
1S
the
Accessibility
Issues
Coordinator for the City of Pasadena.
He
believes the
appl1cant's plan meets both the letter and sp1r1t of bU1ldlng
code and federal regulatlons and goes beyond what would be
required under the Amerlcans wlth Disabil1t1es Act
(ADA)
requlrements
- 8 -
The Clty'S disabled access coordlnator, Audrey Parker, reviewed
the appllcant's plan and does not agree with Mr. Gorski's
conclusions (Attachment K) Accordlng to Ms. Parker, the
applicant's proposal does not meet the ADA Title III Public
Accommodations requirement, nor does lt address the Ilsp1rlt of
ADN' which is to not only provlde access to services but to do so
ln an lntegrated settlng. Ms. Parker suggests that if the wine
tastlng and educatlon actlvltles occur on the loft level, the
store should be requlred to include accesslble and non-accesslble
lnformatlon in all of lts advertlslng materials and conduct the
tast1ng and all educatlonal activities on the flrst floor
whenever a patron lS unable to use the stalrs to the second
floor.
To further evaluate this lssue, staff retained Peter Robertson,
an accessibl11ty consultant. Mr Peterson is president of Access
Unllmited, Accessibility Management Specialists. Mr. Peterson is
ln overall agreement wlth the comments made by Ms. Parker. His
report 18 lncluded as Attachment L.
Accordlng to Mr Peterson, conducting the Wlne classes in the
loft area creates a situation WhlCh does not provlde an
equlvalent area ln an lntegrated settlng for disabled persons on
the flrst floor. Part of any class experience 1S lnteraction
wlth classmates as well as the lnstructor. Mr. Robertson feels
the two-way intercom system falls short of providing an
integrated settlng for partlclpants on either level.
- 9 -
However, Mr Robertson does feel the proposal to prov1de pre-
purchase W1ne tast1ng serV1ces on the ground floor for patrons
with disabil1t1es 1S a reasonable alternative. This space should
be permanent, clearly marked and prov1de the sames facilities,
services and amenit1es that are available on the mezzan1ne level.
The hours of availab111ty of the pre-purchase W1ne tasting
serV1ces on the ground level must be the same as that provided on
the mezzanine level.
An alternative proposed by Mr Robertson is to Ilm1t the
educat10nal W1ne tast1ng classes to t1mes of the day when the
ground floor can accommodate the ent1re class as well as any
wine-tast1ng activity. Another alternative could be to des1gnate
one or two of the educational wine tasting classes as being
offered on the accessible level and include this in any marketing
and advert1sing of the educational wine tasting schedule In
order to comply with conditions of ABC, these classes would have
to occur after regular store hours.
There is a power- ass1sted, portable wheelcha1r 11ft, 11 Stair-
Trac", ava1lable on the market, which Mr. Robertson discusses in
h1S report. This wheel chair lift could prov1de vert1cal access
for disabled persons between levels. Mr. Robertson points out
that clearance requirements may not be met 1n the W1ne store
because the second landing may not be large enough to accommodate
this device.
- 10 -
Mr. Robertson also has concerns regarding the d1sabled
access1b1l1ty to the W1ne store from the street and rear parking
lot. The vertical change 1S greater than 1 II at the front
entrance and greater than 311 at the rear entrance. Removal of
these barr1ers 1S 1ncluded as a condition of approval.
Appl1cant's Appeal
The appl1cant, Robert Picane/ has appealed the cond1t1ons of the
Planning Commission/ s decision. No specific issues have been
noted, but the applicant/s attorney has indicated that the
applicant filed an appeal to reserve the right to appeal to City
Council if the appllcant / s disabled accessibility plan was not
approved by City staff.
Appellant Barbanell/s Concerns
Stephanle Barbanell is appealing both the approval of the upgrade
from Type-20 (Off-Sale Beer and wine) alcohol llcense to a Type-
21 (Off-Sale General) alcohol license and the approval of the
amendment to CUP 90-074, which approved a Type-42 (On-Sale Beer
and Wlne for Public Premlses) alcohol llcense to permit Wlne
tasting/ by relocating the W1ne tast1ng to the loft. Ms.
Barbanell/s concerns have been outlined 1n her appeal statement
(Attachment C).
Ms. Barbanell's overrlding concern regardlng the upgrade from a
Type-20 to Type-21 alcohol license is the bellef that this
locatlon will become a full llquor store. The appllcant has not
- 11 -
proposed thlS use at the premlses and conditions of CUP 94-008,
speclflcally Condltlcns #8, 9, and 10, restrict sales of spirits
and requlre that the premlses remain as primarily retall Wlne
sales. Ms. Barbanell sees the proposed upgrade ln llcense type
as an lntenslfication of use and belleves the conditions of
approval are not enforceable. She states that wlth only two
people in the Vice Unit and two zoning Inspectors, Clty staff
wlll not be able to proactlvely enforce these conditions
However, staff generally conducts enforcement activity on a
complalnt basls and would respond to any alleged vlolations at
the establlshment. Ms. Barbanell also indicates that it lS not
the policy of the Alcohollc Beverage Control board to limit the
sales of splrl ts to 10% of the gross sales lf the premises lS
issued a Type-21 alcohol license. However, the applicant has
accepted thlS condltlon, and any vlolatlon of the condltlon would
be subJect to enforcement action by the City.
Another questlon posed by Ms Barbanell lS whether the Type-42
alcohol llcense ln fact had already expired prior to this
application. CUP 90-074 for approval of the Type-42 alcohol
license to permlt the Wlne tastlng in the loft area was approved
on January 9, 1991 by Plannlng CommlSS1on. The approval was
appealed to Councll. The appeal was denied and the Council
approved CUP 90-074 on March 12, 1991 with the amendment that the
wine-tasting area located on the ground floor "1n order to meet
Title 24". Also lncluded in this approval was a speclal
condltlon whlch limited the expanslon to the east (Tenant Space
- 12 -
#C} to retall sales of Wlne only with no expansion of rlghts for
the approval of the wine tastlng serVlce.
The permlt was to explre one year from tl:e effectlve date of
approval, with a possible extension to June 12, 1992 A letter
from the applicant, Murray Weber, dated February 7, 1992,
requested a six-month extension to CUP 90-074. In a letter dated
February 26, 1992, the Planning Manager responded that the
maximum extension that may be granted is three months. Staff
identifled violations of ABC requirements and reports from SMPD
regardlng one sale to a minor, and wine store patrons purchasing
wine at the wine store and then consuming lt at the Odeon bakery,
WhlCh was not llcensed for on-site consumption. Given this
lnformatlon, the Planning Manager did not approve the extension
request and further noted that staff was not recommending
approval of the request for a Type-21 alcohol license.
The appllcant, Murray Weber, responded in a letter dated March 4,
1992, to the points raised regarding violatlons. In a follow-up
letter dated March 10, 1992, to Mr. Weber, staff amended the
prevlous letter of February 26, 1992 and approved an extenslon of
CUP 90-074 to March 19, 1992, citlng lithe Plannlng Commission's
contlnuance of action on thlS matter to March 18, 1992."
On March 18, 1992, the Planning Commission approved CUP 91-041,
to allow an upgrade from the existing Type-20 (Off-Sale Beer and
Wine) alcohol llcense to a Type-21 (Off-Sale General} alcohol
- 13 -
llcense Followlng Planning Commission approval of CUP 91-041, a
letter dated March 30, 1992, from the City's Senior Planner to
Mr. Weber, granted one three month extension The Senior
Planner's letter indicates that the CUP would explre on June 12,
1992 and no further extensions would be granted.
Mr. Weber received his ABC approval for the Type - 4 2 alcohol
llcense on May 26, 1992, prlor to the June 12, 1992 expirat10n
date, vesting the r1ghts granted under the CUP.
Ms. Barbanell bel1eves the C1ty cannot make the findings required
to approve the upgrade of llcense type. She cla1ms that w1thout
a citYW1de alcohol POllCY WhlCh ldentifies how many alcohol
outlets would be acceptable ln each district or neighborhood, it
is lmposslble to make the flnd1ng that thlS premlse wlll not
result in an overconcentratlon of alcohol outlets. However, the
Clty'S Zonlng Ordinance expresses the C1ty'S current alcohol
pollcles, and allows the conslderatlon of alcohol CUPs on a case-
by-case basis. The Plannlng CommlSS1on found that the proj ect
merited approval.
She also believes that the f1ndlng regarding protectlon of the
publ1c health, safety and welfare cannot be made. Ms Barbanell
1S concerned regardlng the safety of school chlldren at Roosevelt
Elementary School and Early Years Pre-School due to the upgrade
1n alcohol license type. Ms. Barbanell 1S concerned that
increased traffic due to wine classes may occur at the same t1me
- 14 -
children are returnlng home from school. Staff feels the
proposed condltlons adequately protect the school chlldren and
resldents of the surroundlng area by requiring classes to begln
after 5:00 pm on weekdays as llsted In Condltlon #5
The public health, safety and welfare is also not protected,
accordlng to Ms. Barbanell, because of the lack of personnel to
enforce conditions and because the City has made assumptlons
regarding health issues that only the County Department of Health
has the expertise to address. The Planning Commission action
includes required findlngs on this issue.
Ms. Barbanell belleves that the original approval for a Type-20
(Off-Sale Beer and Wlne) alcohol 11cense at the Montana Wlne Co.
and the Odeon Bakery is still in effect for the Ode on Bakery.
The request included as part of CUP 546 was for a bakery and a
retail Wlne shop, but the bakery was not considered part of the
Montana Wlne Company's premlses by the State ABC and is not in
effect for Odeon Bakery, as these are two separate buslnesses.
The prevlous tenant at the Montana Wine Company had a history of
Clty zonlng and State ABC llcense violations which Ms. Barbanell
states was a draln on the llmlted enforcement resources in the
City whlch could potentlally occur again. According to Ms.
Barbanell, past violatlons lncluded sales to minors, alcohol use
expanding into the Odeon Bakery and IYlng to the City Council.
However, the current applicant is not assoclated wlth the past
- 15 -
operator. While prevlous experlences at thlS locatlon may serve
as a warnlng of potential problems, staff feels the new operator
should not be penallzed for alleged vlolations by prior
operators.
The Santa Monlca Police Department (SMPD) had no concerns
regardlng this application lf speclflc lssues were addressed as
part of the conditions of approval The SMPD wanted to ensure
that no sales of convenlence-Slze alcohol contalners would be
permltted However, the Clty Attorney's offlce revlewed this
condltlon and determlned that the City was not able to llmlt this
type of product due to State pre-emption in thlS area, and the
Plannlng Commission deleted thlS condltion. This issue has been
revlewed with the pollce Department and the condltlons adopted by
the Plannlng Commission are acceptable.
Another concern of Ms. Barbanell is that the flndlngs of facts
presented in the Plannlng Commission staff report and STOA were
arb1trary and therefore the Justification for approval is faulty
wlth clrcular reasonlng. Staff believes that the Commlssion's
actlon approving the Wlne shop was based on the specifics of the
applicant's proposal and the requlrements of the Zonlng Ordlnance
and 1S fully supportable
ANALYSIS
ThlS appllcation lS slmllar to a previous Conditional Use Permlt
appllcatlon, CUP 91-041 which was approved by Planning Commisslon
- 16 -
and upheld on appeal to City Council, ln June 1992 Condition
#16 of that approval required that the rlghts granted would
explre lf the requlred ABC approvals were not obtained. The ABC
approvals were not obtalned and the approval explred.
A retall Wlne store must sell 50% of lts gross receipts in non-
alcoholic items to meet the ABC's requirements for a Type-20
(Off-Sale Beer & Wine) alcohol llcense The applicant prefers to
focus his store prlmarily on the wine sales. A Type-21 (Off-Sale
General) would allow the applicant to sell Wlne wlthout selling
at least 50% of ltS gross receipts ln non-alcoholic items. The
applicant intends to also sell a Ilmlted amount of quality
spirits and llqueurs which he feels would complement the sale of
Wlnes
One of the lssues raised in the appeals regards the adequacy of
parking. Based on the parklng survey submitted by the appllcant,
which staff has corroborated, adequate parking appears to be
available In the parking lot as well as on the street durlng the
proposed operating hours.
Another concern is protectlng resldents, especlally children,
from drivers who may have been Wlne tastlng. Conditions #5 and
#15 address these concerns by Ilmlting the hours of wine tastlng
and requlrlng the owner to provide a plan for employee alcohol
awareness. Further, Alcohol Condltlon #6 limlts the amount of
wine that may be consumed The lntent of the owner is to operate
- 17 -
a store which is primarily a retail W1ne store. In addltlon to
Ilmltlng the sale and storage area for spirits, staff recommends
Condltion #9, wh1ch requ1res a f1xed location for a spirits
dlsplay area
The Councll may choose to review another approach to allow this
applicant to operate a retall Wlne store. A Type-42 (On- sale
Beer and Wlne for Public Premises} alcohol llcense, Wh1Ch 1S
required for the Wlne tasting, could be expanded by the ABC to
include off-sale Wlne as well. This would limit the appllcant to
sell only beer and Wlne, but there would be no requirement
regardlng limiting the gross sales to 50% alcoholic versus 50%
non-alcoholic i terns. However, under this approach, no minors,
even those accompanied by parents, would be allowed in the store,
creat1ng a condl tlon WhlCh may be difficult for the store to
enforce, as well as potentially affectlng the business's
vlablllty.
The applicant w1shes to relocate the W1ne tastlng activity to the
loft on the second floor. The location of the W1ne tastlng on
the first floor was limiting because mlnors, even 1f accompanled
by parents, could not enter the store. By movlng the Wlne
tast1ng area to the loft, the wine tast1ng activity lS kept 1n a
more easlly controlled area.
However, it would appear that short of providing an elevator or
lift to the loft area, the applicant's proposed disabled access
- 18 -
plan does not satisfy the requlrements or splrit of Title 24 and
ADA requirements. The Dlsabled Access Speclallst hired by the

ALCOHOL OUTLET FINDINGS
1.
The proposed use and locat1cn are 1n accordance
with good zoning practice, 1n the publ1C 1nterest,
and necessary that substantial justice be done in
that the alcohol 11cense w1II be for an upgrade
from an exist1ng Type-20 (Off -Sale Beer & W1ne)
to a Type 21 (Off-Sale General) alcohol 11cense
for a new reta11 W1ne store and in that conditions

2.
The proposed use will not adversely affect the
welfare of neighborhood res1dents in a significant
manner in that the use w1II be located in a
commercial area, away from any maJor residential
uses.
3.
The proposed use will not co~tr1bute to an undue
concentrat1on of alcohol outlets 1n the area in
that a retail wine store w1th an upgrade from an
- 22 -
existing Type-20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine) to a Type-
21 (Off-Sale General) alcohol llcense is not
typlcally consldered to contribute to
ob]ectlonable problems associated with alcohol
outlets, that, wlthln a 500' radlus of the
establlshment, there are a total of three other
alcohol outlets, and that the area is in a
neighborhood commerclal dlstrlct of Santa Monica
whlch lS frequented by large numbers of local
resldents as well as offlce workers, shoppers, and
visltors from outslde the area. Furthermore, this
type of outlet has not contrlbuted significantly
to alcohol related problems in the area.
4.
The proposed use wlll not detrlmentally affect
nearby nelghborhoods conslderlng the dlstance of
the alcohol outlet to residential buildings,
churches, schools, hospitals, playgrounds, parks,
and other eXlsting alcohol outlets in that the
condltions for approval, such as limiting quantity
of sales of spirlts to ten percent (10%) of total
alcohol sales with a fixed location establlshed
for splrlts, and no on-slte consumption of
splrlts, and no Wlne tastlng prlor to 5: 00 pm,
will minimize the potential affect on the
resldentlal uses In the vicinity.
5.
The proposed use is compatible wlth existing and
potential uses within the general area In that the
retall Wlne store lS In a commerclal dlstrlct, and

existing Type-20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine) to a Type
21 (Off-Sale General) alcohol llcense for a new
retall Wlne store and In that condltlons of
approval will limit the quantity of sales of
splrlts to ten percent (10%) of total alcohol
sales, that a flxed locatlon wlll be establlshed
for spirits, and that on-slte consumption of
splrits is not permitted, is compatible with
permltted uses and existing on-site food and
retall uses.
6.
Traffic and parking congestlon wlll not result
from the proposed use in that parklng for a retall
Wlne store wlth an upgrade from an eXlsting Type-
20 (Off-Sale Beer & Wine) to a Type 21 (Off-Sale
General) alcohol llcense is available on-site and
will not slgnlflcantly alter existing traffic
patterns as compared to the previous operation,
does not require addltlonal parklng spaces, and
that a parking survey has demonstrated that
adequate parklng lS avallable on-site for existing
and proposed uses.

establ1shment operates as a retail wine store wlth
an upgrade from an existing Type-20 (Off-Sale Beer
& Wine) to a Type 21 (Off-Sale General) alcohol
llcense for a new reta1l W1ne store and in that
cond1t1ons of approval wlll Ilmlt the quantity of
spirits sales to ten percent (10%) of total
alcohol sales, that a flxed locat1on will be
establ1shed for splr1ts, and that on-site
consumptlon of SplTltS 1S not permltted.
