CUP Nos. 2012 -11, 2012 -12 & 2012 -13 -MOD October 28, 2013 Page 7 approval of a license in an area deemed over - concentrated and high in crime may affect the quality of life and police resources in the area, and aggravate existing conditions. Since the City's overconcentration standards do not apply to on -sale establishments, the Police Department considered two factors when reviewing this type of application: crime rate and sensitive land uses. It has been determined that 220 East Fourth Street has an above average number of reported crimes when compared to all crime reporting districts based on standards established under B &P Code Section 23958.4. 220 East Fourth Street is located in Reporting District No, 185. This reporting district is 20 percent above the average reporting for all districts, which is even with the threshold established by the State for high crime.
