SUBJECT: CONSIDER ADOPTION OF AN INTERIM ZONING ORDINANCE AS AN URGENCY
MEASURE, IMPOSING A MORATORIUM ON THE ISSUANCE OF NEW PERMITS
FOR ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE SALES IN THE CITY
Section 65858 of the Government Code sets forth the requirements for
adoption of an interim zoning ordinance as an urgency measure. Section
65858 allows the legislative body to adopt as an urgency measure an
interim ordinance prohibiting any uses which may be conflict with a
zoning proposal which the legislative body is considering, or studying,
or intends to study within a reasonable time. The urgency measure
requires a four - fifths vote of the legislative body for adoption. The
interim ordinance shall be of no further force and effect 45 days from
its date of adoption. After the required public notice and a public
hearing, the legislative body may extend the interim ordinance for 10
months and 15 days and subsequently extend the interim ordinance for one
year. Any extension also requires a four- fifths vote for adoption. Not
more than two extensions may be adopted. Ten days prior to the
expiration of an interim zoning ordinance or any extension, the
legislative body is required to issue a written report describing the
measures taken to alleviate the condition which led to the adoption of
the ordinance.
A draft interim zoning ordinance prohibiting new permits for alcoholic
beverage sales in the City is attached (Attachment 1), and the reasons
why adoption of the ordinance as an urgency measure is proposed are
discussed below.

Interim Zoning Ordinance
To: Honorable City Council
November 18, 1996

DISCUSSION
Staff's primary reason for suggesting adoption of an interim zoning
ordinance prohibiting new permits for alcoholic beverage sales in the
City is that there are conflicting State law, City Zoning Code, and City
policy requirements, as discussed below.
Resolution No. 95 -1170 (Attachment 2), adopted on December 20, 1995, sets
forth procedures for the processing of applications for alcohol sales
pursuant to Section 23958.4 of the Business and Professions Code
(Attachment 3). Resolution No. 95 -1170 includes application processing
requirements that should be included as code requirements in Title 17,
Zoning, of the Moorpark Municipal Code. The Business and Professions
Code, Sections 23790 and 23790.5 (Attachment 4) includes regulations
pertaining to the concurrent retailing of motor vehicle fuel and beer and
wine for off - premises consumption, that should be incorporated into Title
17, Zoning, as processing requirements. Based on the State regulations
identified in Attachment 4, a Conditional Use Permit should be required
for concurrent retailing of motor vehicle fuel with beer and wine for
off - premises consumption; however, City Resolution No. 95 -1170
(Attachment 2), requires an Administrative Permit for all alcoholic
beverage sales.
City Council Policy No. 35, Food Service and Liquor Sales Guidelines
(Attachment 5), includes conditions to be imposed on all permits
associated with the approval of any retail alcoholic beverage sales that
should also be incorporated into Title 17, Zoning as permit requirements.
The need for Planning Commission review of an application for alcoholic
beverage sales should also be addressed in conjunction with the amendment
of Title 17, Zoning, to revise the permit and processing requirements
pertaining to alcoholic sales. Resolution No. 95 -1135, establishing
certain permit approval processes to be performed by certain city
officials, requires that when the City Council is cited as the approving
authority, the Planning Commission shall first review the application and
shall make appropriate recommendations to the City Council in a manner
as prescribed by the Zoning Code. The Administrative Permit process
established by Resolution No. 95 -1170 (Attachment 2) did not require
Planning Commission review, which was in conflict with Resolution No. 95-
1135.
At the current time, there is an application for an Administrative Permit
to allow alcoholic beverage sales for the La Playita Restaurant that
would be affected by the proposed interim ordinance. The application
submitted by La Playita for an Administrative Permit was deemed
incomplete due to Redevelopment Agency and code enforcement issues.

Staff is recommending approval of the proposed interim zoning ordinance
and initiation of a formal amendment to the Zoning Code. A draft
resolution is attached (Attachment 6) to initiate an amendment of Title
17, Zoning, to include regulations pertaining to the permit and
processing requirements to allow alcoholic beverage sales.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
1. Adopt an interim zoning ordinance as an urgency measure, imposing
a moratorium on the issuance of new permits for alcoholic beverage
sales in the City. (Requires a four- fifths vote)
2. Adopt a resolution initiating an amendment of Title 17, Zoning, of
the Moorpark Municipal Code, to include regulations pertaining to
the permit and processing requirements to allow alcoholic beverage
sales.
3. Direct staff to notice a public hearing, prepare a draft ordinance
for extension of the interim ordinance, and to prepare a report
describing the measures taken to alleviate the condition which led
to the adoption of the ordinance, to be considered at a City Council
public hearing on December 18, 1996.

ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE SALES IN THE CITY
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK, CALIFORNIA, DOES
ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City Council finds and declares that there are
conflicting State law, City Zoning Code and City policy
requirements that necessitate amendment of Title 17, Zoning, of the
Moorpark Municipal Code to include all State and City regulations
pertaining to the permit and processing requirements for allowing
alcoholic beverage sales in the City.
SECTION 2. The City Council hereby directs the Community
Development Department to conduct a study relative to amending
Title 17, Zoning, of the Moorpark Municipal Code to provide
comprehensive permit processing requirements for the sale of
alcoholic beverages, consistent with the requirements of State law.
In connection with said study, the City Council contemplates the
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 an Administrative Permit
to allow alcoholic beverage sales shall be accepted for filing
with, or issued or approved by, the City.
SECTION 4. Pursuant to Government Code Sections 36937 and
65858, the City Council hereby finds and declares this Ordinance to
be an urgency ordinance, requiring the immediate enactment thereof,
because there is a current and immediate threat to the public
health, safety or welfare of the City and its citizens and the
processing, approval and issuance of additional Administrative
Permits pursuant to Title 17, Zoning, of the Moorpark Municipal
Code would result in that threat to public health, safety or
welfare. The facts constituting such urgency and threat are as set
forth in Sections 1 and 2 of this Ordinance.

phrase, part or portion of this Ordinance is for any reason held to
be invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent
jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the
remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council declares
that it would have adopted this Ordinance and each section,
subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, part or portion thereof,
irrespective of the fact that any one or more section, subsections,
sentences, clauses, phrases, parts or portions be declared invalid
or unconstitutional.

hereby designated for that purpose.

Occupancy Standards and Zoning Variances
(Excerpts from the Health and Safety Code)
17922.9. (a) The Legislature hereby finds and declares that the provision of an adequate level of affordable housing, in and
of itself, is a fundamental responsibility of the state and that a generally inadequate supply of decent, safe, and sanitary
housing affordable to persons of low and moderate income threatens orderly community and regional development,
includingjob creation, attracting new private investment, and creating the physical, economic, social, and environmental
conditions to support continued growth and security of all areas of the state.
The Leo stature further finds and declares that many rural communities depend on mortgage financing available
through the Farmers Home Administration and that the continued construction of affordable housing is a priority for the
state. However, the Legislature, in requiring waiver of certain local requirements respecting adequacy of garages and

financing of two -car garages and houses exceeding a maximum size.
The Legislature further finds and declares that inadequate housing supplies have a negative impact on regional
development and are, therefore, a matter of statewide interest and concern.

MEMORANDUM
The Honorable City Council
Patrick J. Richards, Director of Community Development

FOOD SERVICE & LIQUOR SALES - GUIDELINES
On March 15, 1989 the City Council considered a report from the Director
Of Community Development regarding whether a liquor license request
after the approval of a Planned Development Permit requires a Major
Modification or Minor Modification Permit approval. It was staff's
Position, at that time, that unless alcoholic beverage consumption was
approved as part of the original PD permit, such a use would be an
expansion requiring a Major Modification Permit approval,
The Council discussed the matter and determined that the following is to
occur in the future regarding this subject:
1• That the PD permit application form is to be revised so as to
show disclosure of any intent for on -site or off -site sale of
liquor.
Z• If a PO permit is approved after March 15, 1989, that has not
identified it's intent regarding liquor sales or consumption;
to introduce such after approval would require a major
modification of the original planned development.
Discussion
With an interest to establish a better identification of the Council's
action, staff is requesting consideration to approve the following
guidelines as they relate to liquor sales and consumption within the
City. In having such identifiable guidelines it will be easier for the
general public, future applicants, Alcoholic Beverage Control Board and
future staff members to transmit the Council's interest towards liquor
sales and consumption within the City.
