ITEM TITLE: Ordinance /$95 - Amending the Chula Vista Municipal Code
to expand the definition of bingo _
SECOND READING AND ADOPTION
SUBMITTED BY: City AttorneyJ`//1�-' (4/5ths Vote: Yes_ No X )
�/ —
State law has recently been amended to allow for an expanded definition
of bingo . Bingo now includes a game which is often known by the name '
"break open" . Therefore, it is my
RECOMMENDATION: That Council amend the bingo ordinance to include
"break open" within the definition of bingo . _
BOARD'/COMMZSSION RECOMMENDATION: Not Applicable
DISCUSSION
"Break open" is a game much like that operated in supermarkets where
a card is given to the person who then scratches or peels off a cover
which reveals numbers or symbols which may result in a prize . ' The
_r Council• and this office has received a request from the Girls ' and
Boys ' Clubs of Chula Vista that the Chula Vista_ Municipal Code follow
the lead of the state in permitting ".break open" to be played. , I
have discussed this matter with the Police Department and I can
anticipate no police problems with this new game .
FISCAL IMPACT : Not Applicable
