LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
1 . VIDEO ELECTRONIC GAMES
Recommendation: That the Council adopt interim
ordinance prohibiting the installation of video
electronic games within the City.
City Attorney stated that, at its last meeting,
the Planning Commission gave tentative approval
to an ordinance which would change regulations
regarding video games, in particular, in the downtown (103)
area ; that the Government Code provides that the
Council may impose a moratorium on any use which
would then become non-conforming if in-place prior
to new regulations, if desired during the time
of consideration of the proposed amendment; and
that such an action would require a 4/5 vote of
the Council .
HERE COUNCILWOMAN ORTNER entered and joined the '
meeting.
Director of Community Development reported that
the Planning Commission has determined that four
games would be an accessory use; that there has
been some challenge to the authority of that deter-
mination; and that the interim ordinance is proposed
in order to preclude installation of games which
become non-conforming upon adoption of the ordinance.
In answer to question by Council , City Attorney
stated that the Council could prohibit installation
of video games of more than four in any one location,
or prohibit in specific zones, or specific number
of games in specific zones; that proposed ordinance
would prohibit new installations anywhere in the
City; and that uses in operation prior to the
adoption of the ordinance might constitute a valid
non-conforming use.
In answer to question by Council , City Attorney
stated that occupancy permit issued to the "Amusing
Sandwich" prohibited video electronic games ; and
that the ' interim ordinance would remain in effect
for four months, or until amended, repealed, or
an ordinance covering the subject is adopted.
