AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA
VISTA IMPOSING, AS AN INTERIM AND URGENCY MEASURE, A
REQUIREMENT THAT FOR A PERIOD OF NINETY (90) DAYS ANY
PROPOSAL TO EXPAND OR MODIFY ALCOHOL SALES IN THE CN
ZONE IS SUBJECT TO THE ISSUANCE OF A CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF CVMC SECTION
19.14.030(6)
WHEREAS, on April 3, 1993, the City Council expressed concern with the fact
that the City's recently adopted ordinance requi ring a conditional use permit for
alcohol sales facilities in the C-N zone (ordinance no. 2526) does not
distinguish between the extent or amount of alcohol sales or between the sale of
beer/wine and hard liquor, and
WHEREAS, a previously approved or "grandfathered" alcohol sales facility
in the C-N zone can therefore expand or ~odify their operations without local
review and approval, and
WHEREAS, the expansion or modification of alcohol sales in the C-N zone may
have an adverse impact on the public health, safety, and welfare as it relates
to an over-concentration of alcohol sales and the resulting impact on crime in
the surrounding area, and
WHEREAS, it will require ninety (90) days to process and consider a
permanent amendment to the ordinance to provide for local review and approval of
such facilities, and
WHEREAS, an interim urgency ordinance is necessary to maintain the public
safety, health and welfare because of the potential that the expansion or
modification of alcohol sales in the C-N zone could occur without the opportunity
for local review to determine i f such expansion or modification would result in
an over-concentration of alcohol sales and an adverse impact on crime in the
surrounding area.
