That Sec. 4-18.1, entitled "Extended hours license", of the City Code of Ordinances is amended to read as follows: Sec. 4-18,l Extended hours license. (a) Any place of business operating as a restaurant or restaurant bar in the city, which is duly and regularly licensed by this state to prepare, sell and serve full course meals to the public, and if such place of business sells and dispenses alcoholic beverages, it is duly and regularly licensed by this state to sell and dispense alcoholic beverages, wine or beer therein, may apply for an extended hours license. Such license application shall be processed by the city clerk and placed by that officer on the planning and zoning board agenda for a hearing and applicant shall be notified of the date of such hearing. The planning and zoning board shall at the time of the hearing make a recommendation to the city that the commission grant the license, deny the license, or grant the license subject to specific conditions. Upon such recommendation by the planning and zoning board, the application shall be placed on the city commission agenda and applicant shall be notified of the date of the city commission hearing on such application. The city commission after proper hearing may grant the license, deny the license, or grant the license subject to specific conditions. The annual fee for the issuance of said license shall be one thousand two-hundred fifty dollars ($1,250.00). Such extended hours license shall permit and extend the hours in which such licensee may remain open until 4:00 a.m. on any day, except New Year's Day, when such license shall permit the operator to stay open until 5:00 a.m. As a condition of the receipt of the extended hours license, the licensee agrees to close its place of business at 4:00 a.m. on each day, 5:00 a.m. on New Year's Day, and reopen no earlier than 7:00 a.m. During such closing times, it shall be unlawful for the licensee to permit F:/566001:/Ordinances:/Extended Hours License 1 ORDINANCE NO.2002-019 any members of the public to be or remain at its place of business for any purpose. A separate extended hours license for sale of alcoholic beverages between the hours of 11.00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. on Sundays may be approved as provided in this chapter with an annual license fee of three hundred dollars ($300.00). All such extended hours licenses are hereby declared to be and are regulatory in nature. Every such license shall expire on September 30 of each and every year unless previously renewed by the city manager. Any place of business w#a-that wishes to make an initial application for an extended hours license shall pay a nonrefundable application fee in the amount of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00) to defray the costs of investigation of said applicant. Said fee shall be submitted with the application for such license, and no application shall be accepted by the city unless accompanied by said fee. (b) For purposes of this section, a restaurant is defined as any place of business whose primary activity is the preparation, selling and serving of full course meals to the public within that business establishment. A restaurant/bar may qualify under this article where such bar is directly connected with the restaurant, operated by the same management in connection with the restaurant and the primary activity of that business establishment is the preparation, selling and service of full course meals to the public. Restaurants as defined for this section are subject to the health and sanitation requirements of Chapter 13, Article VI of the Dania Beach Code. The sale of any alcoholic beverage shall be incidental to any food service and shall be prohibited except when the restaurant is actively engaged in serving of full course meals to the public. (c) The specific criteria for the planning and zoning board's recommendation and for • the city commission's determination in making a decision on the application may include, without being limited to, the following: (1) The amount of off-street parking in relation to the demands created by the extra hours of operation, especially with regard to the adverse impact on adjacent residential areas of any illegal or hazardous parking. (2) The amount and degree of law enforcement activities generated by the operation of any restaurant or restaurant/bar, both outside and inside the particular location, with particular emphasis on vandalism, noise, vehicular use by patrons and illegal activity of any kind by employees, patrons or others associated with the establishment. (3) The adverse effects, if any, that the extended hours of operation will have on neighboring properties, especially with respect to the effects of noise, parking and glare from headlights or exterior lighting on nearby residential properties. (d) The city commission may require, as a condition of the privilege of extending hours of operation, compliance with any reasonable conditions deemed by the commission to be necessary to mitigate or eliminate the adverse effects of such extended hours. These conditions may include, without being limited to provision by the owner or operator, at his/her expense, of additional off-street parking, security personnel and screening and buffering from nearby properties. The commission may • also require that the licensed establishments be wholly enclosed, soundproofed, and F:/566001:/0rdinances:/Extended Hours License 2 ORDINANCE NO.2002-019 air-conditioned, with any windows, doors or other openings be kept closed, except for normal and emergency ingress and egress, in order that noise and music emanating • therefrom will not disturb the peace and quiet of the neighborhood. The owner shall record in the public records of Broward County, Florida, a covenant running with the land which expressly sets forth any and all conditions required. (e) Any applicant for an extended hours license must be enrolled in the Responsible Vendor Program and must continue to be a member in the Responsible Vendor Program as a condition of holding an extended hours license. (f) The granting of an extended hours license to a particular licensee is a privilege subject to revocation at any time by the city commission, and no person may reasonably rely on a continuation of that privilege. The renewal of any extended hours license shall first be approved by the city manager, and shall be processed by the growth management department. If the city manager approves the renewal, the license shall be issued upon payment of the aforementioned fee. If the city manager denies the renewal, the licensee shall have twenty days from the date of the notice of denial to appeal the decision to the zoning and planning board. The zoning and planning board shall use the criteria specified in subsections (c) and (d) above in determining said appeal. (g) If the city manager, upon recommendation from the city commission, determines prior to the renewal date that the licensee has violated a condition of issuance, renewal or is operating in a manner harmful to the public health, safety or welfare, the city manager shall place on the city commission agenda the matter of revoking the extended hours license. Written notice of the charges against the licensee shall be sent to him/her • at least ten (10) days in advance and shall also contain the date, time and place of such agenda item. After consideration of the matter and allowing the licensee to be heard, the city commission may revoke, modify or condition the extended hours license. If the commission, in its sole discretion, determines that the actions of the licensee are of such a nature as to pose a threat or otherwise negatively impact the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the city, the commission may also revoke the privilege of selling, delivering or permitting consumption of alcoholic beverages afte-F up to 3:00 a.m. on any day of the week, including Sunday. The criteria to be used by the city manager and commission in such matters shall be the criteria specified in subsections (c) and (d) above. Should the license or privilege be revoked, conditioned or modified, the licensee may seek review of such actions before the commission after three (3) months. The commission may then modify or refuse to modify its action. Only one such review shall be given within a twelve-month period. (h) The costs incurred by the city in investigating any of the matters included in subsections (c), (d) and (f) in either a revocation or denial of renewal proceeding of an a restaurant's extended hours license shall be paid by the licensee to the city. These costs shall be in addition to the initial application fee and the annual license fee required by this section and shall not exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) for any one proceeding.

The amendment is intended to clarify the City Commission's intent, to require an extended hours licensee to close its place of business at 4:00 a.m. on any day (5:00 a.m. on New Year's Day), and reopen no earlier than 7:00 a.m. During such closing hours, it would be unlawful for the licensee to permit any members of the public to be or remain at its place of business for aZpuse. I recommend that this ordinance bffective on October 1, 2002, since we are in the midst of the license year. The ordinan will be prospective in effect for all licenses issued or renewed this fall. Commission review and adoption of this ordinance are requested.
