CUP No. 2021-03 - El Yaqui Tacos y Mariscos March 22, 2021 Page 4 5 3 9 Table 3: Police Department Analysis and Criteria for Recommendation Police Department Analysis and Criteria for Recommendation Police Grid No. and Rank Police Grid No. 243; ranked 60 out of 102 Police Reporting Grids (25th percentile) Threshold for High Crime This reporting district is well below the 20 percent threshold established by the State for high crime Police Department Recommendation The Police Department is satisfied that the operational standards applicable to on-premises ABC licenses will mitigate any potential impacts to the surrounding community and therefore does not oppose the granting of a CUP. The Police Department then compares the number of such crimes in the reporting district as compared to the number of crimes in other reporting districts. In keeping with the standard used by the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control and Business and Professions Code, should the Police Department determine that the reporting district has a 20 percent greater number of reported crimes than the average number found in all reporting districts, the Police Department will consider this information in making its recommendation. As part of the application process, this application was reviewed by the Police Department. Based on their review, the Police Department has no issues of concern regarding this application. Public Notification and Community Outreach Public notifications were posted, published, and mailed in accordance with City and State regulations. In addition to these measures, representatives of Meredith Parkwood Neighborhood Association were contacted to identify any areas of concern due to the proposed request. At the time this report was printed, no issues of concern were raised regarding the proposed CUP. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 1 - Existing Facilities). This exemption consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency's determination. The project proposes to allow the operation of an ABC license to sell beer and wine at an existing bona-fide restaurant. Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2021-20 will be filed for this project. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.
