To address concerns <br />of community impact, the Council continued Conditional Use Permit (CUP) No. 2019-21 (Exhibit <br />1) to allow the applicant to perform additional community outreach. <br />At the March 17, 2020 City Council meeting, several concerns were raised by the City Council <br />regarding the 24-hour operation of the convenience store. Specifically, concerns were raised about <br />a 24-hour operation adjacent to sensitive land uses such as residential and a religious temple. <br />Additional concerns regarding the potential for the store attracting homeless individuals and <br />loitering while being open in the late hours were also raised. <br />Based on City Council feedback, Adan Madrid, the project applicant, performed door-to-door <br />outreach to residents within a 500-foot radius of the subject site. The applicant made contact with <br />approximately 200 residents and was able to provide information on the project and background <br />on the request for a 24-hour operation.
