BACKGROUND SUMMARY
On November 13, 2013, Ryan Klein filed Planning Application No. PA13-0270, a Minor
Conditional Use Permit for Luke’s Restaurant, a bona fide eating establishment, to allow for a
Type 47 ABC license (on-sale general beer/wine/distilled spirits) and live indoor entertainment
at 28677 Old Town Front Street. Staff has worked with the applicant to ensure that all concerns
have been addressed, and the applicant concurs with the recommended Conditions of
Approval.
ANALYSIS
Luke’s Restaurant is a new bona fide eating establishment that proposes to operate out of an
existing mixed-use structure within the Old Town Specific Plan. The menu of American cuisine
will be served for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the restaurant will provide a “late night”
menu. The restaurant will include private dining areas, patio seating, and bar seating. The full-
service restaurant intends to offer their patrons a full alcohol menu with beer, wine, and distilled
spirits. This will require a Type 47 license from ABC. Per the Old Town Specific Plan (Table IV:
Land Use Matrix), businesses offering alcoholic beverage sales with distilled spirits in Old Town
must obtain a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). ABC has indicated that Findings of Public
Convenience or Necessity will not be required from the City of Temecula since the business will
operate as a bona fide eating establishment.
The restaurant proposes to provide live indoor entertainment Monday through Sunday from 8
p.m. to 2 a.m. Per the Old Town Specific Plan (Table IV: Land Use Matrix), businesses offering
live entertainment must obtain a CUP. The entertainment provided by Luke’s Restaurant will
consist of “background music” as an ancillary use performed by DJ’s playing hip-hop, top 40’s,
pop, rock, house, and country. The restaurant will continue to provide full dining services to
patrons throughout the DJ performances and will not operate as a nightclub in that a dance floor
with dancing will not be a part of the restaurant’s operations. The total estimated number of
employees for the restaurant/bar will range from 18 to 25. The applicant has not proposed any
modifications to the site, floor plan, or structure as part of the application.
LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS
Notice of the public hearing was published in the U-T San Diego on February 21, 2014 and
mailed to the property owners within the required 600-foot radius.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been
deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review (Section 15301, Class 1
Existing Facilities).
The Conditional Use Permit will allow a new bona fide eating establishment to obtain a Type 47
license from the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control and provide live musical
entertainment for its patrons. These uses are common for restaurants and will not require
modifications to the existing structure or site. No impacts are anticipated.

FINDINGS
The proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code.
The conditional use will allow a bona fide eating establishment to serve a full alcohol menu and
provide live indoor entertainment. These uses are common for restaurants and the Old Town
Specific Plan provides provisions to allow for them. Therefore, the proposed conditional use is
consistent with the General Plan, Old Town Specific Plan and Development Code.
The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and development of
adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional use will not adversely
affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures.
The Conditional Use Permit will allow a new bona fide eating establishment to obtain a Type 47
alcohol license and provide live indoor entertainment. These are common uses for restaurants

conditional uses are compatible with the nature, condition and development of adjacent uses,
buildings, and structures. The project is not anticipated to adversely affect the adjacent uses,
buildings, or structures.
The site for a proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the
yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping, and other
development features prescribed in this development code and required by the Planning
Commission or Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood.
The application will allow for a Type 47 ABC license and live entertainment within an existing
building. The site will remain adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls,
fences, parking, and loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping, and other development
features prescribed in the Development Code as required by the Planning Commission or City
Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood.

welfare of the community.

Fire Codes, which provided safeguards for the health, safety and general welfare of the
community. Therefore, the project is not anticipated to be detrimental to the health, safety and
general welfare of the community.
That the decision to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application for a Conditional
Use Permit be based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the
Planning Commission or City Council on appeal.

maintain the licensed premises as a bona fide eating place. Minors are allowed on
the premises.
PD-2. Alcohol Consumption in Public. Applicant will comply with Temecula Municipal
Code Section 9.14.010, Consumption of Alcoholic Beverages in Public Prohibited.
PD-3. Legal Age. Applicant will ensure that no alcohol is sold to or consumed by any
person under the age of 21.

identification card (active/reserve/retired/dependent); (d) valid driver’s license from
any of the 50 States or Territories of the United States; (e) valid U.S. Passport; (f)

includes the following requirements: (a) name of person; (b) date of birth; (c)
physical description; (d) photograph; (e) currently valid (not expired).
PD-6. On-sale Licenses. Sections 24200.5 (b) and 25657 (a) (b) B&P; Rule 143 CCR:
Section 303 (a) (PC): On-sale licensees may not: (a) employ hosts, hostesses, or
entertainers who solicit others to buy them drinks, alcoholic or non-alcoholic; (b) pay
or agree to pay such an employee a percentage of the receipts from the sales of
drinks solicited; (c) permit any person whether an employee or not, to loiter for the
purpose of soliciting an alcoholic drink.
PD-7. Operation as a Bona Eating Place. Type 41, 47 and 49 licensees must operate and
maintain their licensed premises as a bona fide eating place. They must make
actual and substantial sale of meals, during the normal meal hours that they are
open, at least five days a week. Normal meal hours are: breakfast 6:00 a.m. – 9:00
a.m., lunch 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m., and dinner 6:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. Premises that
are not open five days a week must serve meals on the days they are open. The
premises must be equipped and maintained in good faith. This means the premises
must possess working refrigeration and cooking devices, pots, pans, utensils, table
service, condiment dispensers, menus, posters, signs, and enough goods to make
substantial meals. The premises must comply with all regulations of the local health
department. Incidental, sporadic or infrequent sales of meals or a mere offering of
meals without actual sales is not compliance. “Meals” means the usual assortment
of food commonly ordered at various hours of the day. The service of only
sandwiches or salads is not considered compliance. However, certain specialty
entrees, such as pizza, fish or ribs, and an assortment of other foods, such as
soups, salads or desserts, may be considered a meal. The Department will
presume that a licensee is operating as a bona fide eating place if the gross sales of
food prepared and sold to guests on the premises exceeds the gross sales of
alcoholic beverages. “Prepared” means any processing preliminary to the final
serving of food. (Note: Some licensees have a “conditional” license that requires
food sales to be 50% or more of the total gross sales Sections 23038 and 23787
B&P).
PD-8. Section 25631 B&P Code. Licensees may not sell, give, or deliver alcohol (by the
drink or by the package) between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. of the same day. No
person may knowingly purchase alcohol between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. (Section
25631 B&P Code). Licensees may not permit patrons or employees to consume
alcohol between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. of the same day (even if someone bought
the drinks before 2:00 a.m. Section 25632 B&P). Some ABC licenses have special
conditions (restrictions) as to hours of sale that are stricter that the law. Those
licenses are marked “Conditional” (23805 B&P).
PD-9. Inspections. Police officers, sheriff’s deputies and ABC investigators are sworn law
enforcement officers (peace officers) with powers of arrest. Whether in plainclothes
or uniform, peace officers have the legal right to visit and inspect any licensed
premises at any time during business hours without a search warrant or probable
cause. This includes inspecting the bar and back bar, store room, office, closed or
locked cabinets, safes, kitchen, or any other area within the licensed premises. It is
legal and reasonable for licensees to exclude the public from some areas of the
premises. However, licensees cannot and must not deny entry to, resist, delay,
obstruct, or assault a peace officer (Sections 25616, 25753, and 25755 B&P; 148
and 241 (b) PC).
PD-10. Disorderly House. Licensees may not permit their licensed premises to become a
disorderly house. A disorderly house is a licensed outlet (on or off sale) that: (a)
disturbs neighbors with noise, loud music, loitering, littering, vandalism, urination or
defecation, graffiti, etc; and/or (b) has many ongoing crimes inside such as drunks,
fights, assaults, prostitution narcotics, etc. The licensed premise includes the
parking lot (Section 25601 B&P; 316 PC).
PD-11. Identification Checks. Applicant will ensure all employees involved with the sales,
service and identification checks for the purpose of any sales of alcoholic beverages
are trained in the proper procedures and identification checks. The Temecula
Police Department provides free training for all employers involved in the service
and sales of alcoholic beverages. It is the responsibility of the applicant to set up a
training session for all new employees. Contact the Temecula Police Department
Crime Prevention and Plans Unit at (951) 695-2773.
PD-12. Entertainment. On-sale licensees who offer entertainment must abide by the
following rules: (1) no licensee shall permit any person to perform acts of or acts
which simulate; (a) sexual intercourse, masturbation, sodomy, bestiality, oral
copulation, flagellation or any sexual acts which are prohibited by law, (b) the
touching, caressing or fondling on the breast, buttocks, anus or genitals, (c) the
displaying of the pubic hair, anus, vulva or genitals; and, (2) Subject to the
provisions of subdivision (1) hereof, entertainers whose breasts and/or buttocks are
exposed to view shall perform only upon a stage at least 18 inches above the
immediate floor level and removed at least six feet from the nearest patron. No
licensee shall permit any person to remain in or upon the licensed premises who
exposes to public view any portion of his or her genitals or anus (Rule 143.3 CCR.
Also violates sections 311.6 PC if conduct is “obscene,” e.g. intercourse, sodomy
masturbation, etc.).
PD-13. Calls for Service. Licensees may not permit their licensed premises to be a problem
for the local law enforcement agency by needing an undue number of calls for
service. The licensed premise includes the parking lot (Sections 24200 (a) (B&P).
PD-14. Contact. Any questions regarding these conditions should be directed to the
Temecula Police Department Crime Prevention and Plans Unit at (951) 506-5132.
