SUBJECT: Workshop Regarding Alcohol Policy for the City of Santa
Monica
INTRODUCTION
The process of establishing an alcohol policy for the city of
Santa Monica was initiated based on a concern about the number,
location and problems associated with some alcoholic beverage
outlets. A working group of Council members, Planning
Commissioners and staff met and agreed that the Planning
Commission should hold a workshop on the issue of alcohol and
make recommendations to the City Council. The attached working
paper is the product of the commission workshop, and is intended
to guide council discussion on the issue (Attachment A) .
..
BACKGROUND
In May of 1991 two members of the Planning Commission prepared a
working paper on the subject of an alcohol policy for the City of
Santa Monica. The Planning Commission heard pubic input on the
issue at a public hearing on May 22, 1991. On July 24, 1991, the
Commission held a discussion on the issues raised at the May 22nd
hearing. The attached draft has been modified based on publ ic
input from the May 22nd meeting and Planning Commission
discussion from the July 24th meeting. The paper presents
background information and outlines potential goals, policies and

implementation measures designed to address the issues related to ;
alcoholic beverage outlets. The Council workshop is intended to
include a discussion of the working paper and testimony from a
number of experts in the field of alcohol issues and associated
problems.
ANALYSIS
An alcohol policy for the City of Santa Monica could address
several issues related to the sale, consumption and related
problems associated with alcohol outlets. Issues include, but
are not limited to, the number of outlets, the potential
over-concentration of alcohol outlets, the distinction between
bona fide restaurants and other alcohol outlets, the Conditional
Use Permit and Alcohol Exemption process, the sale and
consumption of alcohol in outdoor dining areas, the sale and
consumption of alcohol at pUblic events, the enforcement of
alcohol restrictions, and Police statistics on alcohol related .,!f
incidents.
Number of Outlets
As of May of 1991, there were a total of 324 alcohol outlets in
the City of Santa Monica. The breakdown of alcohol outlets by
type is as follows:
TYPE OF LICENSE NUMBER PERCENT
Retail Sales for Off-site ConsumFtion
Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer and Wine) 34 10.5%
Type 21 (Off-Sale General) 42 12.9%

Bars and Nightclubs

Private Clubs
Type 50 (On-Sale General for Club) 2 .6%
Type 51 (Club) 5 1.5%
subtotal 7 2.1%
Total 324 100.0%
Of the 324 licenses, approximately 56 outlets are located in the
downtown area, bordered by Wilshire Boulevard on the north,
Colorado Avenue on the south, Fifth Street on the east, and Ocean
Avenue on the west. As a result of a recent hearing on an
alcohol CUP in the downtown area, an applicant funded a survey of
downtown alcohol outlets. This survey is attached for your
review (Attachment B). Staff is in the process of expanding this
list to include the entire City.
Over-concentration
Over concentration of the various types of alcohol outlets is one
issue Which has been raised by the Planning Commission and
- 3 -
.
public. One method used to determine the significance of the .
number of alcohol outlets in a given area is to examine the ratio
of alcohol outlets per capita. Based on a total residential
population of 86,905, the type of alcohol outlet per capita is as
follows:
TYPE OF LICENSE NUMBER OF OUTLETS/CAPITA
Retail Sales for Off-site Consumption
Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer and Wine) 1/2 556
Type 21 (Off-Sale General) 1 '069
Bona Fide Restaurants
Type 41 {On-Sale Beer & Wine for Eating Place) 1/790
Type 47 (On-Sale General for Eating Place) 1/852
Bars and Nightclubs
Type 40 (On-Sale Beer) 1/9656
Type 42 (On-Sale Beer & Wine for Public Premises) 1/21726
Type 48 (On-Sale General for Public Premises) 1/5432
Private Clubs
Type 50 (On-Sale General for Club) 1/43452
Type 51 (Club) 1/17381
'Total 1/268
The ABC definition of over-concentration is based on a comparison
of nUmDer of outlets in a given area per capita compared to a
county wide per capita ratio. However, the local office of the
ABC was not able to supply staff with a county wide per capita
ratio for alcohol outlets. Without a county-wide ratio, it is
not possible to make a comparison and determine if an
over-concentration based on ABC criteria exists. Furthermore,
- 4 -
. .
. while the per capita data gives a ratio of the number of outlets
to the number of permanent citizens, it does not measure the
increase in the daytime population, evening visitor population
and the large number of tourist that visit Santa Monica.
partially as a result of the revitalization of the Third Street
Promenade, policymakers, the Police Department and private
citizens have expressed concern about the number of alcohol
serving establishments in the downtown area and the potential
over-concentration that may result. Currently however, there is
not a City definition of over-concentration. One of the
implementation measures suggested in the Planning Commission
policy paper is that a City definition of over-concentration be
established. It has been suggested that this definition may vary
depending on the type of alcohol license and geographic area.
For example, a higher number of outlets may be appropriate in the
downtown area as opposed to a neighborhood commercial district.
An accepted definition of over-concentration would assist the
Planning commission and city council in making findings for their
actions on Conditional Use Permits for alcohol related uses.
Attached is a memorandum to the Planning commission regarding the
Alcoholic Beverage Control "over-concentration" guideline
(Attachment C).
Conditional Use Permit Process
In order for an establishment to obtain an alcohol license, the
Planning Commission, or city Council on appeal, must approve a
Conditional Use Permit. Since the Conditional Use Permit
- 5 -
,
.
requirement for an alcohol outlet was established in 1982, .
approximately 90 Conditional Use Permits for alcohol outlets have
been approved. Of the Conditional Use Permits that have been
issued, none have been for bars or nightclubs. Also, a portion
of these represent an expansion or replacement of existing
outlets. In order to ensure that the alcohol outlets are
operated in a responsible manner, the Planning Commission and
staff have established a standard list of eonditions of approval
for alcohol related Conditional Use Permits (Attachment D) .
policies established as a result of the adoption of a City-wide
alcohol policy could also be incorporated as standard conditions
of approval for alcohol outlets.
Alcohol Exemption Process
The Zoning Ordinance currently contains a provision to allow the
issuance of an alcohol license without a Conditional Use Permit
for a "bona fidell restaurant with 50 seats or less and no
entertainment. However, as a result of the increased concern
regarding the number of alcohol outlets in the City, one Planning
commissioner requested that the Commission initiate the process
of amending the zoning Ordinance to delete the CUP IIExemption".
~
This item is scheduled to come before the Planning Commission in
January.
outdoor Dining Standards
In areas such as the Third street Promenade, Ocean Avenue and the
Santa Monica Pier, the city has been working on developing
standards for the operation of outdoor dining areas. One of the
- 6 -
. - .
main concerns in establishing these standards is the sale and
consumption of alcohol in outdoor dining areas. Conditions
established to mitigate problems associated with the consumption
of alcohol in outdoor dining areas include requirements for a
physical barrier, a limit on hours of operation, and restrictions
related to noise abatement.
Alcohol at Public Events
Several events either co-sponsored by the City or located on City
property include the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages.
These include events held at the Third street Promenade, the
Santa Monica pier and the civic Auditorium. In the past, the
agencies managing these events have been responsible for
regulating alcohol operations. An alcohol policy for the city
could include additional policies and implementation measures
designed to ensure that the use of alcohol at these events is
handled in a responsible and appropriate manner. Furthermore,
the Planning Commission policy paper recommends that the City
encourage the establishment of some non-alcohol areas and events.
Enforcement of Alcohol Restrictions
Enforcement of alcohol related Conditional Use Permit conditions
and other alcohol restrictions is currently the responsibility of
various departments and agencies including the Santa Monica
Police Department, the California state Alcoholic Beverage
Control ( ABC) and the City Zoning Enforcement Officers. However,
as stated in the attached article (Attachment E), due to proposed
cuts in the ABC staff, it appears that more responsibility for
- 7 -
> . ,
enforcement may fall on City staff. The City's alcohol policies
could establish priorities and specify responsibility for such
enforcement.
Police statistics
staff has requested the Police Department summarize statistics
relevant to the discussion of alcohol permits. Police statistics
(Attachment F) indicate that the number of drunk driving arrest
over the past three years has decreased from 1151 in 1989, to 836
in 1990, and 449 as of October 20th of 1991. The statistics
indicate that the number of drunk in public arrests have
increased from 2187 in 1989, to 2607 in 1990, and 1974 as of
October 20th of 1991. Of the people arrested for drunk in
public, approximately 68% of them were identified as transients.
The statistics also indicate that the number of ABC violations
went from 25 in 1989 to 62 in 1990, and 18 as of October 20th of
1991. The attached alcohol related crime statistics show the
break down of arrests per beat area. In regard to police
statistics, several citizens have suggested that the format of
the statistics prepared by the Police Department be revised. The
City's alcohol policy could include a format for traCking alcohol
related crime statistics per area and type of incident.
city Council Workshop
staff has invited several experts in the field of aleohol abuse
and associated problems to attend the Council workshop and either
make a brief presentation or respond to questions. These include
the following:
- 8 -

Beverage Control
-Gill Gray, District Director, Alcohol Beverage Control
-Jim Fulton, Director of Chemical Dependency Center, st.

-Marion Omer, Responsible Hospitality Council
-Alberta Hultman, California Restaurant Association
In addition, the workshop will be attended by representatives
from the Santa Monica Police Department. The Planning Commission
has been invited to attend the Council meeting and express their
thoughts as well.
upon completion of the workshop, the Council should give staff
direction as to if and how it wants to pursue the matter of an
alcohol beverage pOlicy. staff should be given direction as to
the desire of the council regarding future public hearings and
.
issues to be addressed.

SELECTED ISSUES
TO BE ADDRESSED BY AN
ALCOHOL POLICY FOR
THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA
INTRODUCTION
For some time residents and policymakers in Santa Monica have
expressed concern about the growing number of alcohol outlets in
Santa Monica, about the potential for overconcentration of such
outlets, and about the community problems associated with alcohol
sales. An informal working group, made up of representatives of
the City Council, Planning Commission, Planning staff, Economic
Development staff, Police, and the City Manager was formed to
discuss these issues and to determine a framework for developing
policies to deal with community concerns.
This document is intended to facilitate discussion of public
policy issues regarding alcohol outlets and associated problems.
Further, as the Bayside District is in the process of formulating
voluntary guidelines regardinq the sale and consumption of
alcohol on the Third Street Promenade, and the city staff is
strengthening its outdoor dining policies, these guidelines and
policies should be considered in light of this discussion.
STATEMENT OF EXISTING CONDITIONS
It is estimated that in the City of Santa Monica there are
currently 350 alcohol outlets: approximately 90 off-sale outlets
(convenience stores, liquor stores, markets, etc. ) and
approximately 260 on-sale outlets (restaurants, bars, nightclubs,
- I -
etc.). The city does not currently maintain a comprehensive list
of these outlets, a map of their locations, nor records of
complaints filed to the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
(ABC) .
In recent years, there has been a marked increase in the number
of outlets, in the intensity of those outlets, and in the total
sales of alcoholic beverages in the city. In the past four years
alcoholic beverage sales have increased by 125 percent in Santa
Monica. Much of the growth in on-sale outlets has been in the
Bayside District, as part of the revitalization of the Third
Street Promenade. Currently there are 44 on-sale licensees
(including some approved but unbuil t) in the Bayside District.
Some of these alcohol outlets can serve up to 300-400 patrons at
a time. The Police Department has expressed concern about
alcohol-related pUblic safety problems. Police patrols on the
Promenade have been increased, particularly on weekend evenings.
Although number of arrests is an imperfect measure of crime, the
following data indicate the number of arrests made in Santa
Monica in 1990 for crimes directly related to alcohol:
1990 City Wide Arrests
for Alcohol Related Crimes
Number of
Crime Category Arrests in 1990
Driving under the influence 885
Liquor laws 23
Public drunkenness 2,519
- 2 -
-- - -
With certain exceptions, such as restaurants of 50 seats or less
and with no entertainment, etc. , the city requires a Conditional
Use Permit (CUP) for new businesses which desire to sell alcohol.
For existing premises which sell alcohol, CUPs are required only
if operations have been suspended for more than one year, or if
the premises change substantially in mode or character of
operation. The planning staff and Planning cOllllnission have
developed a menu of standard conditions for alcohol CUPs which
can be used, deleted, or modified to fit the special
circumstances of each proj ect. The menu of standard conditions
is attached to this document. Included among these conditions
are: requiring annual refresher courses for employees which
serve alcohol; requiring a designated driver program; and
establishing the maximum occupancy for each premises, in addition
to the maximum seating capacity.
GOALS
Upon review of these issues, it is proposed that the City Council
adopt a set of goals and policies and that City staff implement
such goals and policies. Following are proposed goals and policy
statements designed to address the issue:
1. To create an atmosphere of responsible use of alcohol
that will enhance Santa Monica's reputation as a safe, enjoyable
place to live, work, and visit.
2 . To contribute to the reduction of alcohol-related
problems in Santa Monica.
- 3 -
.
3. To the greatest extent possible, eliminate the incidence
of under-age drinking.
4. To the greatest extent possible, eliminate the incidence
of alcohol-related automobile accidents.
5. To the greatest extent possible, eliminate the incidence
of alcohol-related crime.
POLICIES
l. Increase public awareness about alcohol, alcohol
problems, and alcohol policy in Santa Monica.
2. Encourage the existence of establishments where alcohol
is served only incidental to food service.
3. Restrict the development of new establishments where
alcohol is the primary refreshment offered (e.g. , bars, night
clubs, etc.) .
4. Encourage the existence of restaurants which do not
serve alcoholic beverages.
5. Encourage nonalcoholic events.
6. Review the methods used to collect and report crime
statistics and revise, if necessary, to ensure that they are in
accordance with the methods preferred by the ABC.
7. strictly enforce all conditions imposed in alcohol CUPs
and other related ordinance provisions.
.
- 4 -
,
8. Where the City is a partner in development or events,
encourage the establishm.ent of some non-alcohol (alcohol free)
areas and facilities.
9. The City shall establish standards relating to the sale
and location of alcohol at public events.
IMPLEMENTATION MEASURES
In order to implement the goals and policies addressed above, the
city council should consider directing staff to implement the
following measures:
l. Organize a study session for the City Council, Planning
commission, Police Department, and Planning staff on community
planning for the prevention of alcohol problems.
2. Develop educational outreach programs on alcohol use and
abuse. Such programs should stress nontraditional approaches, in
particular those directed to enablersjcodependents. possible
outreach programs include:
A. Produce a video on alcohol for use by schools, CiTV,
etc.
B. Assist the public schools in creating appropriate
alcohol abuse programs.
c. Conduct an open workshop regarding the efficacy of those
social service programs in the city which are directed
toward alcohol problems.
- 5 -
3. Require, as part of the City's regulatory process, that
all employees of facilities serving alcohol attend alcohol
awareness training. Subjects covered to include: alcohol use
and abuse, recognition of intoxicated patrons, age identification
procedures, the designated driver program, and availability of
taxi services. Annual attendance at a refresher course should
also be required.
4. Reuire that restaurants provide non-alcoholic options at
all times, including special events and promotions. Drink lists
shall also include non-alcoholic selections.
5. Develop and maintain a current listing and map of all
alcohol outlets in the city, including the type of alcohol
license held. Maintain files on complaints and violations filed
with the city or the ABC concerning specific outlets.
Appropriate city staff shall analyze this data on an annual basis
and shall summarize the data and analysis in a staff report to
the Planning commission and City Council.
6. Direct the Planning staff to develop standards to
address issues relating to alcohol outlets in santa Monica. The
standards may include limits on geographic concentration of
alcohol service outlets.
7. Determine the definition of an over-concentration of
alcohol outlets based on area and type.
8. In order to provide as much information is available and
to better assist the Planning Commission in making decisions on
- 6 -
.
alcohol CUP applications, the Planning staff should include
specific responses to each application from the Police
Department, Fire Department and ABC regarding ability to provide
service, particular conditions proposed and any pertinent history
(subject to laws and regulations regarding public information).
7. Support the concept of celebrations without alcohol by
dedicating certain city facilities to be alcohol-free zones.
8. Where the city is a sponsor or co-sponsor of an event
where alcohol is to be served, establish standards that such an
event must satisfy.
9. Investigate the ability of the City to restrict hours
during which alcoholic beverages may be served.
10. Investigate the ability of the City to require a
designated driver program for all alcohol serving outlets. This
investigation should include researeh in to whether such a
program may be required of existing outlets (not just new ones) .
II. For alcohol CUPs which contain conditions setting the
maximum proportion of revenues that may be attributable to sales
alcohol, the City shall have authority to conduct regular audits
of sales figures to determine if such conditions are being met.
12. For alcohol outlets which require a minimum purchase per
patron, establishments shall permit patrons to satisfy the
required minimum with purchase of food, as well as alcoholic and
nonalcoholic drinks.
- 7 -
13. Develop vOluntary measures for off-sale merchants that
will reduce the impact of alcohol sales upon the community such
as the display of containers of I iquor which are less than an
established volume (e.g. , one pint) behind the counter or in some
other location not readily accessible to the public.
14. For special events operating under temporary licenses
(e.g., outdoor food fairs):
-
A. Ensure that alcohol is only incidental to the
consumption of food.
B. Enforce strong identification checks.
C. Require operators to ensure that all employees are aware
of Santa Monica's alcohol policies.
O. Limit the number of servings of alcoholic beverage that
may be purchased at one time to an individual.
E. Limi t the size of serving container in which aleoholic
beverages may be served.
F. Require that alcohol be sold in paper cups or recyclable
cans as opposed to glass containers.
15. Absent the ability of the City to undertake any of the
implementation measures suggested above due to preemption by
state or other law or regulation or the lack of resources
necessary to carry out such measures, the City and the Chamber of
Commerce, Bayside District corporation, and other private
organizations and associations should work together to achieve
- 8 -
voluntary achievement of these implementation measures. The city
should consider permitting and encouraging restaurants and other
alcohol outlets to include such compliance in advertising and
display of a sign or plaque to that effect at the premises.
Example: "We abide by the Alcohol Guidelines established by the
city of Santa Monica".
