RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Ordinance No. 2017-18, amending Section 52-3.301 of the County Ordinance Code to provide for a time period within which a cardroom licensee must provide notice to the County of any changes to its cardroom license.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND:
The existing County Ordinance Code providing for the regulation of gambling establishments within the unincorporated area does not contemplate a process for business continuity following certain events such as change in ownership or other unforeseen events (such as the death of the current licensee). The proposed Ordinance being adopted today includes a process to ensure that business operations are not negatively impacted following the events described above while preserving the County's regulatory and enforcement duties.
