Use Permit 82-12
BACKGROUND
Use Permit 82-12 was a request to operate a video arcade at 17292 McFadden,
Suite K. The applicant is Edward Starnes, who owns and operates a ski
store called Ski Fever.
The permit was approved June 21, 1982, by the adoption of Resolution No.
2038. Condition II C limited the number of machines to twenty (20) for a
minimum of ninety days after the approval. After this period of time, the
Planning Agency could grant an additional six machines, bringing the total
to twenty-six (26).
This review period has expired and the applicant is requesting that the
Planning Agency authorize the addition of ten (10) machines, bringing the
total to thirty (30).
DISCUSSION
Staff has received no complaints concerning the operation of the arcade
from either the surrounding residential areas or the adjacent businesses.
With regard to the request for thirty (30) machines, the City Attorney has
advised staff that the Resolution of approval gave a specific number of
games and only that number can be authorized without filing a new public
hearing. Mr. Starnes would have to refile and another public hearing would
have to be held to authorize the addition of more machines.
The applicant has been advised that a refiling of the use permit and a new
public hearing would have to be held in order to authorize additional video
games over twenty-six (26).
RECO~4~NDED ACTION
Staff recorm~ends the Planning Agency grant the addition of six (6) video
games at 17292 McFadden, Suite K by Minute Order.

Dear Sir,
Approval for me to operate a video arcade was given by your
agency on June 21, 1982. Referring to resolution no. 2038, no. II C
it states that my number of games shall be limited to 20, and after
90 days of operation authorization of up to 26 games could be granted
by the planning agency.
I am requesting that you grant this authorization, but increase the number
from 26 to 50 games. My request is based on the fact that two other
video arcades in the City of Tustin have been allowed $0 games. The
two arcades are Tustin Lanes and the new pizza parlor in Larwin Square.
Thank you for your prompt consideration.
Edward Starnes
