in operation for approximately four (4) months, and with the noted complaints the
City has received regarding noise, loitering, parking, and the after hours
operation, it is the Commission's determination that such a use must be

Quality Act of 1970, and, when considering the project as a whole, there was no
evidence before the City that the proposed project Would have any potentially
adverse effect on wildlife resources or the habitat upon which wildlife depends,
and, therefore, a Negative Declaration was approved.

Condition Use Permit 2001-008, as modified by the Commission, to only expand
the hours of operation for the existing computer arcade to 1 :00 p.m. to 1 :00 a.m.,

BACKGROUND
On November 20, 2000, Margaret Wong submitted an application for a Conditional
Use Permit for "Computer sales, Service, Networking, Consulting and after hours
computer network aames." According to the application the business included "sales
of computer parts, systems and programs, high speed internet access, web hosting,
web site deSign and services; copy and fax service; e-mail access and web browsing.
Generally a computer consulting business does not require a conditional use permit,
however, because the applicant was further proposing to have twenty (20) computer
stations available for computer video games between the hours of 5:00 p.m. and 1 :00
a.m., seven (7) days a week a conditional use permit was required for a game
arcade.
The Arcadia Municipal Code defines an arcade as any place of business containing
four (4) or more "game machines". Game machines are further defined as any
device for amusement, including but not limited to a pinball machine or video game
that may be activated by a coin or any consideration paid for its usage.
On January 9, 2001, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution 1629 granting
Conditional Use Permit 01-001 to operate the computer arcade at 1023 South
Baldwin. Two of the conditions are:
1. That the proposed business is limited to 20 computer stations; and
2. The operation of the computer arcade shall be limited to the hours of 5:00 p.m.
to 1 :00 a.m.
Since the operation has been in business the City has received complaints regarding
noise, loitering, parking and after hours operation. AlthoUgh the applicant has
addressed some of these problems, the City has still continued to receive complaints
from adjoining businesses.

week. The current hours for the computer video games are 5:00 p.m. to
1 :00 a.m.
Game machines are subject to business licensing and other related regulations under
Article VI of the Municipal Code. The following regulations pertain to arcades:
1. Any location where a game machine is operated shall provide personnel
over 21 years of age to maintain supervision.
2. The location where each game machine is operated shall provide sufficient

under the age of 18 years from using or playing any game machine
between the ours of 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., Monday through Friday and
after 10:00 p.m. daily, unless accompanied by a parent or guardian. The
8:00 a.m, through 3:00 p.m. restriction does not apply during school
holidays and school vacation periods recognized by schools within the City
of Arcadia.
Parkina:
There are 58 on-site parking spaces; code requires 141 spaces. This results in a
parking space deficiency of 83 spaces. If this application is approved the deficiency
would be 93 spaces as summarized in the following chart:

ANALYSIS
The primary business operation was presented to the City at the time of the original
conditional use permit, as a computer store where customers can purchase computer
components and research information through high-speed computer networks that
are typically not available on a home computer and the incidental business would be
a computer arcade. Staff has visited the site on numerous occasions and at different
times during the week when the proposed use is not supposed to be utilized for
computer gaming. Based on staff's observations it appears the business is being
primarily operated as an arcade. The customers are typically teenagers playing
video games on the computers. The majority of the games observed consist of
objects being blasted or individuals killed. The lighting inside the business is dim and
the computer speakers are turned to a high decibel.
In addition, the City has received complaints about the proposed use that are
typically associated with an arcade, such as persons loitering outside the building
and noise from the computer speakers. A letter has been filed with the Planning
staff, Police Department, and Code Services Officers by the owner of the video rental
store in the center indicating that the patrons of the arcade congregate outside the
store loitering and smoking. These complaints have diminished as the owner has
tried to be cooperative with City staff and the neighboring businesses. However,
according to a recent letter, problems still exists.
The applicant submitted a letter to City staff explaining their proposal should be
considered for approval because the majority of the patrons are teenagers who do
not drive (see attached applicant letter) and they need to stay competitive with the
computer arcade that was approved at 651 W. Duarte Road, which is permitted to be
open from 1 :00 p.m. to 1 :00 a.m.
Staff is not in support of the request to increase the number of game machines from
20 to 30. The site has limited parking and although the applicant has indicated that
the majority of patrons are teenagers who do not drive, staff has observed many
persons of driving age at this location. There is a significant deficiency in parking in
this center and it is staff's opinion that an increase in the number of game machines
will only intensify the amount of activity being conducted at this location.
In staff's opinion, an increase in the number of game machines will impact not only
the parking area but also impact other businesses within this center and if the
number of computer stations is increased to 30, it will be difficult for the owner to
adequately monitor their patrons both inside and outside the building and patrons
may congregate outside the store and congestthe pedestrian flow to the neighboring
, businesses.
In regards to the request for a change in the hours of operation, since, according to
the applicant, the majority of patrons are teenagers, staff would recommend apprbvaJ

of a change in the hours for the arcade to 3:00 p.m. to 1 :00 8.m. on weekdays and
compliance with all other arcade hours and regulations.
Bicycle Parkina:
Section 9275.6.3. of the Special Regulations for Game Machine Arcades requires
that adequate off-street parking be provided for bicycles as well as automobiles,
because the proposed game machin!,!s appeal to young children (under 16 years old)
and there will probably be a need for bicycle parking. The applicant has designated
an area inside building to accommodate such parking per the original Conditional
Use Permit.
FINDINGS
In order to grant a conditional use permit, the Planning Commission must find:
1. That the granting of such Conditional. Use Permit will not be detrimental to the
public health orwelfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such zone
or vicinity.
2. That the use applied for at the location indicated is properly one for which a
Conditional Use Permit is authorized.
3. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate
said use, and all yards, spaces, walls, fences, parking, loading, landscaping and
other features required to adjust said use with the land and uses in the
neighborhood.
4. That the site abuts streets and highways adequate in width and pavement type to
carry the kind of traffic generated by the proposed use.
5. That the granting of such Conditional Use Permit will not adversely affect the
comprehensive general plan.
CEOA
Pursuant to the provIsions of the Califomia Environmental Quality Act, the
Development Services Department has prepared an initial study for the proposed
project. Said initial study did not disclose any substantial or potentially substantial
adverse change in any of the physical conditions within the area affected by the
project including land, air, water, minerals, flora, fauna, ambient noise and objects of
historical or aesthetic significance. When considering the record as a whole, there is
no evidence that the proposed project will have any potential for adverse effect on
wildlife resources or the habitat upon which the wildlife depends. Therefore, a
Negative Declaration has been prepared for this project.

RECOMMENDATION
As noted above the Development Services Department is recommending denial of
the increase in the number of computer stations to 30, but is recommending approval
of a change in hours to 3:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. on weekdays and compliance with all
other arcade hours and regulations.
If the Planning Commission wishes to approve or conditionally approve Conditional
Use Permit 01-008, the Development Services Department recommends the

determination as to the number of computer stations to be allowed and indicate that
number in condition 4 set forth below:
1. That an on-site parking modification be granted for 58 parking spaces in lieu of
151 spaces required by Code. This parking modification does not constitute an
approval of a general reduction of the parking requirement for the entire shopping
center, but only for the specific use approved by CUP 01-001.
2. All City code requirements regarding accessibility, fire protection, occupancy, and
safety shall be complied with to the satisfaction of Building Services and the Fire
Department which shall include, but not limited to the following items:
a. If only one of the proposed restrooms is to be disabled/handicapped
e accessible, then both of the restrooms must be unisex.
b. Installation of a Knox-box with keys in conformance with 'the Uniform Fire
Code.

Attention Kenneth Phung, Arcadia City Planner
We are applying for a CD.P. to smrt our computer Internet gaming access at
11a.m. We are also applying to increase our computer stations number to add 10
more stations to our facility.
Here are a few key points that may help in considering approval for our request
to extend our business hours and increase the amount of computers we currently
have.
. . The majorities of our Members are either under the legal driving age or do
not have cars. According to our observation, most of our gaming
CUStomers get to our facility by the following:
.
Car pool with other friends
Ride their bikes, skateboard or rollerblade
Use Arcadia Dial-a-Ride
Get dropped off by older siblings/Parents/Guardians
Wa1k from surrounding Schools and residential areas
*
.
.
*
.
We have a record of all our members' addresses, phone numbers, date of
birth and parental consent to be in our facility. Our members carry our
Identification Card at all times in our facility.
. By adding ten more stations we are simply adding two more stations to
the end of our existing 5 rows. We would be able to accommodate more of
our customers that have to wait around for available stations to open
during peak hours and/ or weekends.
. Help stay competitive with our competition that has just been approved
for 30 computer stations and operating hours from 11 a.m. to 1 a..m., 7
days a week.
. There have been no parking problems since we opened in November,
2000. We have 2~hour maximum parkiitg limit signs in our parking lot,
enforced by shop owners. .
As a business that has found a demand for Internet gaming in the City of
Arcadia, we are asking permission from the Commission to add 10 more
. computer stations and expand the hours of operation for this business;
,
e.
e
.
-.
~
On our previous application for a Conditional Use Permit we were granted
limited operating hours with limited computer stltions due to previous parking
issues.
. We believe that extending our hours of operation will not have a large
effect on parking in our lot, as most of our customers tend to skew young
prior to 7pm. The majority of these are unable to drive because they are
under age or do not have cars. This can be seen in our parking survey of
two weeks and our membership age list.
. The owners of our building have installed signs throughout the parking
lot for customers only which has discouraged patrons of Bowling Square
from using our lot .
. The Ahi Grill Restlurant is closed daily between the hours of 2pm and
5pm daily, as presented in a signed stltement by the Manager. This leaves
more available parking lot.
. We believe that no matter what type of business comes into this lot the
parking situation thus far will exist.
.
After 5pm, the majority of the businesses in our plaza are closed meaning
that the parking lot is divided by a far smaller number of stores.
I
e
e
.
. .
..
We have a few points that we would like to be noted to the commission in
considering oUr application for C.U.P.
In Novemeber, 2000 we were relocating our shop to a larger, to accommodate
our growing business. Before we moved to the location (currently seeking a
C. U.P) we had inquired about moving into the old 99 cent plaza. According to
the Assistant City Planner, Kenneth Phung, we would most definitely be denied
approval and recommendation from the staff.
We had inquired about th~ old 99 cent plaza for the relocation of our business at
least on 3 separate occasions in hopes of the Staffs' reconsideration. We were
adamantly gUaranteed a recommendation denial because of parking. We ceased
pursUit of relocating our business into that location. Two months later, to oW'
surprise another applicant was approved for that very location we inquired
about previously. We were aIso stunned to find out that they were approved for
the exact same business that we had planned to operate in that plaza. Thus
creating a competitor with an unfair advantage created by inci:msistent
consideration of the facts.
To our dismay, we learned that this promise of denial was based on intuition
rather than actual consideration of fact. It was thought that such a store would
create a parking problem when, infact, this use would have alleviated some of
the strain on the plaza. It was obvious that no effort had been made to learn the
exact parking needs for the plaza until after our application had been
discouraged.
We believe that the Planning Staff did not provide us with an equal application
process. We were discouraged to apply for a C.U.P. in that location on numerous
occasions regarding application for that site.
With this application, all we are seeking is the opportunity to stay competitive.
We only ask that we be allowed the same operational constraints as our
competition. We believe that Dream1ab is the superior store, and, given an equal
opportunity, will provide a greater benefit to the city, surrounding businesses
and our youth.
We Thank you for this opportunity to speak and appreciate your consideration
in our C.U.P. application to extend our busineSs hours, add 10 more stations to
stay competitive in this growing market in Arcadia.

Dear Sirl Madam:
Ref AIcadia Dreamlab, 1023 So Baldwin Avenue, .An:adia.
'This petition is in reference to the.plil1nning permission granted recendy to the above business. to operate
an axcade in their premises. We the signatories of this petition are, customers of Discount Video located at
1023 'I. So Baldwin Aven';e, AIcadia. We have a long relationship with thiS<Store and as consumers we support
the local store that is not operated by a huge corporation, However, with the opening of the arcade next door.
it has created nuisance for the general public:. The foDowing is a brief outline of the situation:
(a) The arcade is very noisy. The speakers in their store make thundering sounds which can be hean!
in the video store continually from 4 P.M. onwards Monday thtough Friday and all day weekends
and holidays. These sounds occasionally exceed 100 decibels which is enough to affect the ear
drum of the workers.in the video store.
(b)
The so called business at the an:ade is really a 'hangout' for the 10c:a1 teenagers. Their perspective
to the life is demoostrated by the fact that they spit all over the parking lot and throw trash
everywhere.
(c)
When shopping at the video store, we have hean! four letter words and shout> and screams
thtough the walls. This makes us wonde< whethe< any thought was put 'in for granting a
permission to operate an arcade in a small shopping center. .
(d)
The teenagers visiting the an:ade crowd the confined space between the two businesses and it is
embarrassing to pass thtough the crowd to visit the video store. 10 fact, when one of the
customers (who is also one of the signatories) tried to retum the movies thtough the night drop
at about midnight. the hooligans in front of the video store showed attitude to him, A heated
conversation then ensued between this particular custome< of the video store and the teenage
loiterers.
(e)
The parking space at this center is limited and therefore it is always a problem to find parking
spot in the center. With the remodeled restaurant due to open in the weeks ahead. this is going to
make the situation even worse.
(f)
There is a lot of loitering in the parking lot BIld in front of the video/an:ade stores at any given
time of the day for smoking. arguing. being on the ceD phone and consumption of food and
beverages. There are so many kids hanging around outside that it may cause accident> in future.
This is becoming a safety issue since all the an:ade clientele are in their teens and highly
irresponsible. .

We collectively hope that some actions will be Inken to rectify this public nuisance.
Thank you,
(see attached sbeet for petitionen)
NOTE'FROM TIm OWNERS
p.s An the signatures on the attached sbeet "'" from the clients wbo visited the stote 011 March 3><',
2001 orily. Therefore, these petitioners "'" only a fraction of the video store's customer base. We have been in
this location since 1982 and have never encounte<ed such a problem.
We called the law officers twice and we were informed that the oreade hangnut was operating within the law
and we were told by the Officer and I quote 'not to waste their time'. My understanding from his statement is
that the arcade and their clientele can do whatever -they like and there is nothing we can do about it I
undentand t!>e idea of 'free country'but this concept of 'not breaking the law' is too extreme.
I urge you to reconsider the permission to operate the arcade in small shopping.centers or office buildings in
the City. I understand from the grapevine that the arcade was asked by the City to vncate their previous
location because of similar circumstances.
Thanking you in the anticipation that the matttr will be seriously discussed sod rectified such that this type of
sill1ation does not arise again in the City of Arcadia.

All the above referenced businesses have been affected as a result of 'Dreamland Club'

are operating under a conditional permit to operate the arcade as from ,5 P.M in the after-
noon. This proviSion o~ the permit, is consistently being violated by the club. The kids
start arriving to the location as early as 12.15 P.M on some days. All the problems

The observations in the table above, indicates that the reql;Jirements of the permit are not
adhered to by the business at 1023 S. Baldwin Avenue.
It would be appreciated by us if the City consistently monitors/polices the activities of the
arcade. At this stage the parking problems are getting worse especially on the weekends.
The new restaurant at 1025 is not even open for business. Our observations indicate that
the cars belonging to patrons of the Arcade are parked in the lot for 4-5 hours from the
afternoon.

On 03-15-01. at approximately ,1606 hours, I was conductIng a business check aUhe
Dreamlab arcade (1023 S Baldwin Ave). The business is currently operating with a
conditional use permit (CUP), which only allows operation between the hours of
1700~01bo.
Upqn entering the location I observed thirteen customers (not including employees)
using computer terminals. None of the thirteen customers were sharing a terminal.
I then made contact with W-Raby, who is the CO-owner of the location. I asked
W-Raby if each of the thirteen computer users were customers of the location; and he
advised that they were. I the!,! question~d W-Raby regarding his knowledge of the
CUP. W-Raby stated that he was aware of the permitted hours of operation. W-Raby
then advised that he felt the hours of the permit were designed to reduce parking
conditions within the location's lot. W-Raby felt that sin96 most ofthe current
customers ~ad carpooled, or rode bicycles to the location, that he was complying with
the spirit of the permit.,
I then advised W-Raby that regardl~~t: qf ~B~~,g'~stomers means of transportation, he
was in violation of1he CUP. W-Raby then adVIsed that he would Cease operations until
1700 hours.
. Based on my Investigation it appe~~;t~~f~~RabY was not acting in compliance with
the CUP, in violation of AMC 6311.5.

(To be completed by the Lead Agency)
.
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
[X] I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the
environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
[] I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the
environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the
mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project
A NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
[] I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment,
and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMP ACT REPORT is required.
[] I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment,
but that at least one effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document
pursuant to applicable legal standards and has been addressed by mitigation
measures based on that earlier analysis as described on attached sheets, and if any
remaining effect is a "Potentially Significant Impact" or "Potentially Significant
Unless Mitigated," an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but
it only needs to analyze the effects tiu!t have not yet been addressed.

EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACfS:
I. A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impacf' answers that are adequately supported by
the information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impacf' answer
is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to
projects such as the one involved (e.g" the project is not within a fault rupture zone), A "No Impacf' answer
should be explained where it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards (e.g" the project
will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific screening analysis).
2, All answers must take account of the whole action involved, including. off-site as well as on-site, cumulative as
well as proje.cHevel, indirect as well as direct, and construction related as well as operational impacts,
3,"potentially Significant Impacf' is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significant. If
there are one or more, "Potentially Significant Impacf' entries when the determination is made, an
Environmental Impact Report is required,
4. "Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation
measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less Than Significant Impact."
The lead agency inust describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a
less than significant level (mitigation measures from Section 17 "Earlier Analyses" may be cross-referenced),
5. Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program Environmental Impact Report, or other
CEQA process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or Negative Declaration {Section
I5063(c)(3)(D)}, Earlier analyses are discussed in Section 17 at the end of the checklist.
6. Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist, references to information sources for potential
impacts (e;g., general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a previously prepared or outside document
should, where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is substantiated.

~CADIA DREAMLAND COMPUTER ARCAD...E.
The computer arcade business at 1023 S. Baldwin Avenue has applied for plllnnil'\g
permission to lllCpand the arcade stations and. the operating hours. Refer to the attached
sheet from the City HalL The expansion if granted will cause the following problems:
(1) Parldng Problems
Theexpansi.on will create lot ofprobletnS for customers of other businesses in the
shopping center. , The reason is that the patrons ofihe Computer Arcade store tend to
park their cars for Up to S hours whilst they are in the arcade. Most of the kids visiting
the arcade has their own cars. They are taking up the precious parking spots that
needs to be shared by all the businesses. If the number of arcade stations are increased
to 30, the whole parking lot will be taken up by the arcade customers.
(2) Loitering
With the cun-ent conditional pennit, there are (on occasions) crowds .of kids hanging
around near the arcade and the parking lot. With the expanded hours and computer
stations, this will be happening all day, every day, seven days a week. The customers
will be embarrassed to visit their regular store if they see a crowd of kids near the
store or in tht;l parking lot.
(3) Trash
The quality of the shopping center is going to suffer even more with the customers of
the Computer Arcade dumping trash and cigarette butts all over the parking lot. It will
not be nice eating in a restaurant and looking at kids outside spirting all over the
parking lot. The restaurant and donut businesses will suffer because of the unhygienic
conditions created by trash and spitting.
(4) Kids are Kids
We have noticed kids playing ball (customers of the arcade) and roller skating in the
parking lot. This is a major safety issue that needs to be addressed either by the City
or the Landlord of the center.
The customers of other businesses may just look at the above problems and decide to
take their business elsewhere. IF YOU REALLY CAltE ABOUT YOUR
BUSINESS AND THE ,QOTTOM LINE. this is your chance to voice your
opinion in the upcomine: Plan nine: Meetinl!: at City Hall on Mav Sib. Arter that

Attention:
Community Development Division,
City of Arcadia,
Dear Madam,
Re: CUP 01-008-1023 SBALDWIN AVE, ARCADIA,
Please find attached a folder showing the problems associated with the above business
ever since it opened the doors. This petition and the supporting paperwork amply
demonstrates that the planning permission to extend the hours and increasing the
computer arcade terminals to 30, should NOT be gtanted to the owners of the Arcade.
This folder for the supporting documents is in three parts.
.Part 1. - Signed paperwork from some of the adjoining businesses fu support of NOT
approving the application. We are attaching a separate letter from the video store because
that particular business has been affected more than others.
e
Part 2. - Letter from the merchants faxed to Mr. Jim Kasama, Code Enforcement Officer
and Mr. K. Phung on 4/19/01. This was done in response to Mr. K. Phung's request. The
attached newspaper article depicts similar problems experienced by the merchants of City
of Walnut.
Part 3. - The original letter that the customers of the video store and owner of the video
store wrote to the City on March 3, 2001 outlining the problems even with a conditional
permit.
We collectively hope that the City will police and enforce the conditional permit issued to
the Arcade.
Thank you,

.Attention: Donna Butler,
Oty of Arcadia CDmmunity Development Division,
Arcadia,
Dear Madam:
WIth reference to aJP 01-008 for the Arcade store expansion, all the problems outlined in the attached
leaflet also applies to us. !iaoIever, we are affected more than the other merchants since there is a lack of a
solid wall between the t\m stores and the front entry doorS for both our stores is in a conftned area. (Refer to
the attached photograph)
(1) Noise Problems
The sound emanating from .the Arcade gets out of control depending on the number of people in their
store. The owner of the Arcade to their credit added insulation on the wall. This has helped a little bit but the
sound blaring from the speakers is so consistent that some times it is unbearable. In spite of the current
conditional permit, the noise becomesunbeamble through the afternoon. The volume is turned down when we
have complained but it invariably g~ up again when another batch of people start playing. The owner of the
An:ade is really trying to accommodate and act on our complaints but it has prownimpossible to police the
cro\\U visiting the An:ade;
e
(2) Loitering
As the front doors of the Arcade and the Vuleo Store are in a confined space, (with plantation immediately
in the front of the stores-see photograph) the kids tend to croml around the doors for snwking; cellular phone
calls, socializing and the ovedlow from the An:ade. This practice invariably means that they unknowingly block
the entry of video store customers. We have lost a good proportion of our female clientele because they feel
embarrassed and int;m;dored by a large cro~ Again the owner of the Arcade is trying really hare! to alleviate
this problem. But it is apparent that sbe cannot fix it.
(3) Trash
The confined space as describedahove is always covered with trash and cigarette butts when we open the
store in the morning. Last ~k I requested the Manager of the Arcade to remove the trash from the front of
mystore. He complied with my request by kicking the trash towards another store.
We have been in this l!X"tion since 1981 and have never experienced anything 1ike this. If this aJP is granred, I
am sure many other businesses in the center will have to close.
Sincerel}!

the arcade has their own cars. They are taking up the precious parking spots that
needs to be shared by :ill the businesses. If the number of arcade stations are increased
to 30, the whole parking lot will be taken up by the arcade customers,
(2) Loitering
With the current conditional permit, there are (on occasions) crowds of kids hanging
around near the arcade and the parking lot. With the expanded hours and computer
stations, this will be hliPpening all day, every day, seven days a week. The customers
will be embarrassed tl) visit their regular store if they see a crowd of kids near the
store or in the parking lot.
(3) Trash
The quality of the shopping center is going to suffer even more with the customers of
the Computer Arcade dumping trash and cigarette butts allover the parking lot. It will
not be nice eating in a restaurant and looking at kids outside spitting allover the
parking lot. The restaurant and donut businesses will suffer because of the unhygienic
conditions created by t~ash and spitting.
(4) Kids are Kids
We have noticed kids playing ball (customers of the arcade) and roller skating in the
parking iot. This is a major safety issue that needs to be addressed either by the City
or the Landlord of the ':enter.
The customers of othe:r businesses may just look at the above problems and decide to
take their business elsewhere. IF YOU REALLY CARE ABOUT YOUR
BUSINESS AND THE BOTTOM LINE. this is vour chance to voice vour
opinion in the upcomine: Plannine: Meetine: at Citv Hall on Mav SIb. After that

ARCADIA DREAMLAND COMPUTER ARCADE
The computer arcade business at 1023 S. Baldwin Avenue has applied for planning
permission to expand the. arcade stations and the operating hours. Refer to the attached
sheet from the City Hall. The expansion if granted will cause the following problems:
(1) Parking Problems
The expansion will create lot of problems for customers of other businesses in the
shopping center. The reason is that the patrons of the Computer Arcade store tend to
park their cars for up 1:0 5 hours whilst they"are in the arcade. Most of the kids visiting
the arcade has their ,)WD cars. They are taking up the precious parking spots that
needs to be shared by all the businesses, If the number of arcade stations are increased
to 30, the whole parking lot will be taken up by the arcade customers.
(Z) Loitering
.
With the current conditional permit, there are (on occasions) crowds of kids hanging

BUSINESSES AT 1019 -1029 S. BALDWIN AVENUE
All the above referencl~ businesses have been affected as a result of 'Dreamland Club'
opening up in the shopping center at 1023 S Baldwin Avenue. We understand that they
are operating under a conditional permit to operate the arcade as from 5 P.M in the after-
noon. This provision of the permit, is consistently being violated by the club. The kids
start arriving to the IClcation as early as 12.15 P.M on some days. All the problems
highlighted in the attached article are demonstrated in this parking lot.
DATE TIME APPROXIMATE

4/14/01 1.0 P.M 8
4/15/01 2.0P.M 2
The observations in the table above, indicates that the requirements of the permit are not
adhered to by the business at 1023 S. Baldwin Avenue,
It would be appreciated by us if the City consistently monitors/polices the activities of the
arcade. At this stage th,e parking problems are getting worse, especially on the weekends.
The new restaurant at 1025 is not even open for business. Our observations indicate that
the cars belonging to patrons of the Arcade are parked in the lot for 4-5 hours from the
afternoon.

Planning DeplU1ment
City of Arcadia,
Arcadia
Dear Sit/ Madam:
Ref Arcadia Dreamlab, 1,023 S. Baldwin Avenue, Arcadia.
This petition is in reference to the planning permission granted recendy lO the above business lO operate
an arcade in their premises. We the signalOries of this petition are cuslOmers of Discount Video located at
1023 V. S. Baldwin Avenue, lUcadia. We have a long relationship with this slOre and as consumers we support
the local slOre that is not operated by a huge corporation. Howeyet, with the opening of the arcade next door,
it bas created nuisance for.tb<, general public. The following is a brief outline of the situation:
(a) The arcade is ve,Of noisy. The speakers in their slOre.malre thundering sounds which can be beard
in the video slOre continually from 4 P.M. onwards Monday through Friday and all day weekends
and bolidays, These sounds occasionally exceed 100 decibels which is enough lO affect the ear
drum of the wOlkers in the video slOre,
(b)
The so called business at the'arcade is really a 'hangout' for the local teenagers. Their perspective
lO the life is demonstrated by the fact that they spit all over the parking lot and throw trash
e""rywhere.
(c) When sbopping at the video slOre, we have heard four letter words and shouts and screams
through the w:ws. This makes us wonder whether any thought was put in for granting a
permission to operate an arcade in a small shopping centee
(d) The teenagers visiting the arcade crowd the confined space between the two businesses and it is
CDlbarrassing to pass through the crowd to visit the video store. In fact, when one of the
customers (who is also one of the signalOries) tried to return the movies through the night drop
at about midnight, the hooligans in front of the video store showed attitude to him. A healed
Conversation then ensued between this particular customer of the video slOre and the teenage
lOiterers.
(e) The parking space at this center is limited and therefore it is always a problem to find parking
spot in .the centee With the remodeled restaurant due to open in the weeks ahead, this is going lO
make the situaUed even worse.
(I) There is a lot onoitering in the parking lot and in front of the video/arcade stores at any given
tUne. of the day for smoking, a.going, being on the cell phone and consumption of food and
beverages. Thett are so many kids hanging around outside that it may cause accidents in future.
This is becoming a safety issue since all the arcade clientele are in their teens and highly
irresponsible.

We collectiveJy hope that some actions will be taken to rectify this public nuisance.
Thank you,
(see attaehed sheet for petitioners)
NOTE FROM THE OWNE;RS
P.S All the signatures on the attached sheetare from the clients who visited the store on March 3"',
2001 only. Therefore, these petitioners are.only a fraction of the video store's customer base. We have been in
this location since 1982 and have never encountered such a problem.
We called the law of6cers t"ice and we were informed that the IlICtIde hangour was operatiog within the law
and we were told by the Officer and I quote 'not to waste their time', My understanding from his statement is
that the an::ade and their clientele can do whatever they like and there is nothing we can do about it I
understand the idea of 'free !:OWltry' but this concept of 'riot breaking the law' is too extreme.
I urge you to reconsider the permission to operate the arcade in small shopping centers or of6ce buildings in
the City, I understand from the grapevine that the arcade was asked by the City to vacate their previous
location because of similar circumstances.
Thanking you in the anticipa;ion that the matter will be seriously discussed and recti6ed such that this type of
situation does not arise againiin the City of Arcadia.
