A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, DETERMINING THE
PUBLIC CONVENIENCE WILL BE SERVED BY THE SALE
OF BEER FOR CONSUMPTION ON OR OFF PREMISES
(TYPE 40 STATE ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONTROL
LICENSE) AT A CAFE/COFFEE SHOP LOCATED WITHIN
THE AERIAL TRAMWAY VALLEY STATION, 1 TRAM WAY
AND WITHIN CENSUS TRACT 9405.
THE CITY COUNCIL FINDS AND DETERMINES AS FOLLOWS:
A. Elevated Experiences, LLC has applied for a California Department of Alcoholic
Beverage Control (ABC) Type 40 liquor license to sell beer at an existing cafe/coffee
shop located within the Valley Station of the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, 1 Tram Way
Road, Census Tract No. 9405.
B. The ABC has determined that there are nine existing alcohol licenses within
Census Tact No. 9405, while two (2) alcohol licenses would be allowed based on on-
sale retail licenses to population in the County in which the applicant's premise is
located.
C. The ABC has determined that there is an "undue concentration" of alcohol-
related licenses in the Census Tract No. 9405.
D. Pursuant to Section 23958.4(b)(2) of the State of California Business and
Professions Code, the City Council may determine the public convenience or necessity
would be served by the issuance of the requested license.
E. The business will be located in Census Tract No. 9405, which encompasses
much of the mountainous areas and some developed areas on the westerly edge of the
city. As a commercial recreation attraction, food and beverage services are often
viewed as a necessity for the convenience of tourists and visitors. Furthermore, as an
isolated site that is an attraction destination, there isn't any other nearby business/use
that would be impacted by the issuance of this Resolution of Convenience or Necessity.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS RESOLVES:
That the findings and determinations reflected above are true and correct, and are
incorporated by this reference herein as the cause and foundation for the action taken
by and through this Resolution.
