CONSIDERATION TO ADOPT AN ORDINANCE THAT ADOPTS BY REFERENCE COUNTY ORDINANCE 3930 RELATING TO THE INSPECTION GRADING OF FOOD ESTABLISHMENTS A staff report was presented by Duane Baker, Assistant to the City Manager. Mayor Alexander stated he no longer feels this is necessary after talking with the Police Chief and the City Manager. He stated he is no longer convinced that this needs to go through. He stated we are currently dealing with the State of California and they are identifying what they call violators in our community for selling tobacco to underaged individuals. He stated they are not sharing the information, nor are these businesses being told they are breaking the law. He stated nobody can get any information who they are except for the Police Department. He stated he feels the Ordinance is a good thing, but felt it inconsistent to single out the restaurant owners and not single out the people that are selling tobacco illegally. He stated this makes no sense and until such time we can get some resolution to what is going on with being consistent with our business people, he wanted to put this on hold. Councilmember Spagnolo stated he would like to see this continued until Councilmember Michael comes back. Councilmember Gutierrez stated he would like to see a violation process given with a couple months given to take care of any problems noted before they get a letter grade. He felt his was a questionable Ordinance to act on now. Councilmember Williams stated she would like to postpone this action also. She stated she did not feel someone should be given a B or C grade because of a broken tile or something like that. She stated she agreed with the Mayor's comments on the selling of tobacco. ORDINANCE NO. 739 (second reading) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING, BY REFERENCE, COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO ORDINANCE NO. 3930 RELATING TO INSPECTION GRADING OF FOOD ESTABLISHMENTS AND AMENDING TITLE 8 OF THE RANCHO CUCAMONGA MUNICIPAL CODE MOTION: Moved by Williams, seconded by Spagnolo to continues this hearing to March 2, 2005 at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers at the Civic Center located at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, California. Councilmember Spagnolo stated he was made aware that restaurant owners are required to put a certificate along with the letter grading in the window, which is something that has been in the books, but hasn't been enforced and now is. He definitely felt this should be looked into. Motion carried unanimously 4-0-1 (Michael absent). [I H. PUBLIC HEARINGS No Items Submitted. City Council Minutes February 2, 2005 Page 8 II I.

He talked about the success of their business and that they have strived to be a good neighbor. He stated they do respect the rights of the neighbors, but felt if problems arise, they should be contacted so they can correct them. He stated they have spoken to Mr. Sanchez in the past and that Captain Ortiz has assisted with their meetings. He felt their meetings were successful and that one of the meetings even resulted in one of his employees being terminated. He stated he has taken measures so that the customers do not park on Estacia and that they have even picked up trash on that street. He indicated he has given Mr. Sanchez his personal phone numbers if there are any problems. He stated he has never been contacted by Mr. Sanchez and that there have not been any complaints filed against him. He stated he respects the rights of Mr. Sanchez and would like the opportunity to correct the problems that Mr. Sanchez talks about. Ed Sanchez, Estacia, talked about how Margaritaville came into existence. He stated they hold promotions that fill their parking lot.

He talked about meetings he has had with former Rancho Cucamonga Captain, Rodney Hoops, and his staff. He provided more information about their meetings and that the possibility of revoking their CUP was discussed. He stated Mr. Davidson stated he would have a bouncer to keep the parked cars in his parking lot and would also pick up trash from his neighborhood. He told about an instance that occurred where graffiti was sprayed on his van. He felt the owners of Margaritaville fill the kids with cheap liquor and send them out into the streets. He felt this information should be referred to the Planning Commission for review. He felt the City Council should do what is the right for them. Chris Cameron, Pasito, stated she lives perpendicular to Estacia. She stated she has watched girls in her neighborhood drinking and then proceeding to Margaritaville. She stated they have had security monitoring the residential areas. She stated they are constantly picking up beer bottles and that something needs to be done because of these problems that occur every weekend. Klm Weishan, Pasito, stated she has had kids that are drunk knocking on their door and having sex in their parked cars. Marya Black stated she has had kids having sex, drinking, and urinating in their front yard. She stated the Police Department does not get their fast enough. She stated that Margaritaville needs better security and something to take care of the parking lot over[Iow problem. She does not want her kids to be scared any more. Vicki Schimone, Pasito, stated she has had kids trying to break into her home because they are so drunk. She is fearful for her kids' safety. She stated the kids are racing at 1:00 and 2:00 in the morning and that she wants this to stop. She stated they had been told there would be security on Estacia and Ramona. She stated she has filed reports with the Police Department and that she is tired of living this way. Victoria Sanchez, Estacia, presented photos (on file in the City Clerk's office) of what the kids are doing in front of her house. She told about all the problems they have had in front of her house, but added the biggest problem was her Father's van getting tagged with graffiti. She stated she is so tired of this and hoped their CUP would be revoked. Jim OIson, Estacia, stated the problem he seems to have is after the closing of Margaritaville. He commented on what he finds Sunday mornings such as broken glass, vomit and trash on the streets. He talked about the kids racing on the streets. He did not feel the Police Department is doing enough. He did not feel this behavior should be tolerated. Betty Watkins, Estacia, talked about the kids urinating in her front yard. She wanted to make sure the neighborhood is safe for her grandkids and asked the Council to consider this real hard. City Council Minutes February 2, 2005 Page 10 Rodney Trunnell, Estacia, stated everything that everybody has mentioned has occurred at his house also. He stated there was even a weapon found in front of his house. He felt nothing has been done to help them from the meetings that have occurred with the Police Department. Peggy Sanchez, Estacia, stated they did not call Mr. Davidson every time there were problems because it would not be documented through the Police Department. She did not think this was a very safe situation for her daughter. She stated the Officer that responded to her house one time told her there were not enough Officers on the street to respond as quickly as they would tike to.

She added that Mr. Davidson, the owner of Margaritaville, has been fair and has offered to help with the noise. Counoilmember Gutierrez stated both sides have been heard and felt the City needed the Planning Commission to analyze this for the next step. He stated the City Council cares and wants to find a solution. He felt Mr. Davidson should be treated fair and deserves his day in court. He asked what kind of a detriment there is by having the liquor store in the same center. He stated this should be looked into as well. He felt this should be referred to the proper department. He felt Mr. Davidson would do what he could to fix the situation. Mayor Alexander fett nine years is too long for these people to put up with this. He felt the business should be closed until this problem is remedied, but knew the City Council could not do this. He felt the people that are wandering the neighborhoods drunk should be arrested. He stated this would be looked into. Councilmember Williams stated this would be investigated and that the liquor store monitored too so it could be brought into this discussion. She suggested all the businesses should be looked at in that center. L2. John Lyons commented on the restaurant grading system and did not agree with some of the problems this could be creating. L3. Jim Moffit, Red Hill Coffee Shop in Rancho Cucamonga, stated some restaurants are putting their grade in the window even though it is not required. He stated the Health Department comes in and gives them corrective criticism, and some of those comments are not related to the food. He felt there was a lot to be considered before people are given a grade to put in their window. He talked about the food handler's permit that restaurants are required to get. He did not feel the restaurant should be given any tougher problems. L4. A lady (who did not identify herself) thanked Mayor Alexander and Councilmember Spagnolo for their concerns and encouragement they gave people to come to the Animal Shelter Subcommittee meeting tomorrow.
