ABC LICENSE AGREEMENT - PATRICK MALLOY'S RESTAURANT


Recommendation:


That the City Council receive and file the attached letter from the ABC district office without taking any action.


Background:


This is the second ABC license amendment that has been processed this year under the new law requiring notification to the impacted city. The amendment submitted by Patrick Malloy's is to remove the ABC prohibition on live entertainment. They have requested permission for live music. Secondly, they would like the food service requirement in the patio area dropped. They state that others do not have to sell food and it is difficult for them to compete.


These two proposed amendments are items that the City regulates. Both of the proposed amendments are covered by City regulations, including a CUP. This issue is one that the City communicated to ABC last summer that we would be in the best position to regulate food service and live music rather than ABC. Therefore, I believe that the City Council should receive and file the letter without action.


If they wish to have live entertainment or change the conditions concerning outdoor dining, they must receive approval from the City. In the case of live music, they will need an amendment to their CUP.
