Will the proposed use under the circumstances of the particular <br />case be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of <br />persons residing or working in the vicinity? <br />The proposed ABC license will not be detrimental to persons <br />residing or working in the vicinity as operational standards <br />pertaining to the alcoholic beverage control license will <br />mitigate any potential negative or adverse impacts created <br />by the use.
