MacHott explained the reason for the this request is the applicant is moving from 16665 Lakeshore Drive to a new location across the street next to Stater Bros. (16758 Lakeshore Drive). The State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) is requiring the applicant to obtain a Finding of Public Convenience or Necessity from the City of Lake Elsinore prior to selling alcohol for off-site consumption at the new location. Staff has concluded that since this application relates to the relocation of an existing ABC license to a new location across the street and because there will not be an increase in the total number of ABC licenses in the project vicinity and in the census tract; this application for a Finding of Public Convenience or Necessity is not a concern. ln addition, the Lake Elsinore Police Department has been notifled of this application and does not have any issues with Kings Liquor and Mart having a Type 21 license. MacHott advised the Planning Commission that in order for Kings Liquor and Mart to sell alcohol (Type 21 license) at its new location, a letter indicating that the local lurisdiction has no objections based on the finding of Public Convenience or Necessity is Necessary.
