comprehensive permit processing requirements for the sale of
alcoholic beverages, consistent with the requirements of State law.

consideration of an amendment to Title 17, Zoning, within a
reasonable time.
SECTION 3. For the period of time that this ordinance is in
full force and effect, no application for a permit to allow
alcoholic beverage sales shall be accepted for filing with, or
issued or approved by, the City, provided that this prohibition
does not apply to the only currently pending application for the
sale of alcoholic beverages.
SECTION 4. Pursuant to Government Code Sections 36937 and
65858, the City Council hereby finds and declares this Ordinance to
