TO: Arcadia City Council
FROM: Business License Office
SUBJECT: Game and Amusement Machines
The following information has been compiled pursuant to the
Council's request at its May 5th meeting.
Arcadia Municipal Code Section 6115.1 and 6115.2 define Game
Machines and Game Machines Arcade. A business may have seven (7)
game machines before it is considered an arcade and requires a
Conditional Use Permit.
A permit for game machines is required pursuant to the
Entertainment Enterprises regulations (AMC 6411 through 6411.5).
A Business License fee of $69.40 (1992) is required for each game
machine (AMC 6220.5).
Business License records indicates 21 separate active permits
issued for game machines. These 21 permits cover 89 game machines.
Of these 89 machines 42 are located in bowling alleys, 20 in pizza
restaurants, 17 in bars, 6 in restaurants /carry out food or donut
shops, and 4 in video stores.
When the Business License department was informed of the problems
with students playing the game machines at Star Liquor, other
permit holders were notified as a reminded of student restrictions.
The "Bars" were not notified because children would not be present
in those business locations.
In the past there have been liquor stores with permits for game
machines. There are no active permits at liquor stores at the
present time.
Santa Anita Fashion Park Mall does not permit game machines. There
were two exceptions to this when two of the restaurants that had
outside entrances to their bar area had the Mall's approval and
obtained permits. Presently, there are no active permits at any
mall location.
Attached are the game machine regulations for your information.

TO: ARCADIA CITY COUNCIL
FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT
DONNA L. BUTLER, ASSISTANT PLANNING DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: NUISANCE ABATEMENT AND ORDER FOR REHABILITATION
368 WEST PALM DRIVE
This hearing has been scheduled pursuant to Section 9407 of the Arcadia Municipal
Code to allow the City Council to determine whether a public nuisance exists and
what action is necessary to abate the nuisance on the vacant dwelling and property
located at 368 West Palm Drive.
As per the above Section a "Notice of Public Nuisance and Order to Abate" was
mailed on May 4, 1992 to Yu Sin and Ming Yu Chang responsible parties for the
property located at 368 West Palm Drive. A notice was also posted on the property.
The subject property is vacant. The following violations have been cited on the
property:
1. Weeds and dead vegetation on the premises, adjacent to the alley and in the
and parkway area (§9405.8 and 9)
2. Lack of landscape maintenance and building maintenance (§9405.12)
BACKGROUND
In May, 1991, a property maintenance letter was sent to a Marina Chang (name the
utilities were listed under) regarding the condition of the property at 368 West Palm
Drive, i.e., vacant unsecured dwelling, excessive weeds and general property
maintenance. As a result of this letter, the property was secured and the weeds cut
down.
On August 30, 1991, we received a second complaint and upon investigation noted
that although the house was secured the property was again overgrown with weeds.
A letter was sent to Nai Jen and Chiu Chang (owner) with a copy to Marina Chang.
On September 13 we received a copy of the letter back noting that the property had
been sold, however, there was no name or address for a new property owner.
368 West Palm Drive

On September 19 an inspection revealed that the property had been mowed and
trimmed.
As noted, the subject property is vacant. In October and December, the electric and
gas utilities were disconnected. On January 22, 1992, based upon a site inspection,
Don Stockham issued a stop work order on the property noting the house was being
prepared for moving without the necessary permits. No one was on the site and no
one responded to Mr. Stockham's stop work order.
The new owners are listed as Yu Sin and Ming Yu Chang. According to the County
Tax Assessor's roll, the only address for the property owners is 368 West Palm Drive.
In addition the Planning Department has checked with a title company and this is
the only address they have listed for the property owner.
On April 21 a code enforcement letter was sent to the new property owners. The
letter was returned with no forwarding address.
On May 4, 1992, the notice of public nuisance and order to abate was mailed to the
property owners and also posted on the property. There has been no attempt to
clean the property nor has there been any contact with the property owners.
The Planning Department is recommending that the following work be done to
bring the property into compliance:
1. Remove all trash and debris from the property.
2. Weed, trim and mow the entire lot including the parkway area.
Attached for the City Council's review is a copy of the Notice of Public Nuisance and
Order to Abate.
ACTION
The City Council should open the hearing to receive public input. Based upon
information submitted and the public input the Council may:
1. Determine that the property is not a public nuisance and take no further
action; or
