. a 'e'hon <br /> Ior <br /> D ATE : A P P R OVAL : <br /> April 15 1988 <br /> T O : Planning Commission Members <br /> F ROM <br /> David M. Childs, City Manager <br /> BONAVENTURA MALT SHOP/VIDEO ARCADE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT <br /> This is a .request from Michael Bonaventura for a conditional use permit to allow <br /> him to operate a malt shop and video arcade at Apache Plaza. The exact location <br /> would be in the southwest end of the old Montgomery Wards Auto Center (most <br /> recently occupied by NAPA Auto Parts) . <br /> Mr. Bonaventura states that the malt shop/video arcade would be: <br /> *a youth oriented recreational facility; <br /> *a tobacco-free environment; <br /> *called "Bonos Malt Shop and Arcade": <br /> *utilizing video game (amusement device) licenses currently held by Apache <br /> Plaza; <br /> *staffed to properly insure adequate supervision. <br /> Mr. Bonaventura also indicated that the hours of operation would be limited, but I <br /> can't recall the hours he had discussed with me. <br /> As you may recall , a request for a video arcade was previously considered for the <br /> vacant space in Apache Plaza immediately adjacent to Apache Wells Bar. There were <br /> serious reservations about having a youth gathering place so close to a bar, and <br /> the matter was sent back for further discussions with staff. The other concerns <br /> with this previous request (Planning Commission and Council minutes are attached) <br /> were: security personnel ; hours of operation; and possible loitering in the mall <br /> and in the parking lot. <br /> In this particular case, those concerns should also be considered and addressed, if <br /> necessary, in the conditions finally recommended by the Commission. <br /> The concerns about proximity to the bar would be greatly reduced with this <br /> proposal , as would parking concerns since parking for the area is separated by <br /> curbing from the main mall parking. <br /> :cjk4.19.88 <br />
