( 10) tables at the "California Grand" located at 5867 Pacheco

(Cardroom No. 6, .owner: Lamar Valizar Wilkinson) .
BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
An application was submitted by Lamar Valizar' Wilkinson for the
addition of three ( 3) cardroom tables to his existing ten (10)
table cardroom. Ordinance Code Chapter 52-3 , Section 52-3. 509(c)
requires express approval of the Board for a cardroom license to
permit more than ten (10) tables. Therefore, the Sheriff requests
that a hearing be scheduled for March 24,. 1992 for the Board to
consider the application and receive public comment.
The Sheriff has conducted a visual check of the above listed
cardroom with thirteen ( 13 ) tables and found no hinderance in the
proposed additional three ( 3 ) cardroom tables. Co. Ord. 52-
3.315( 3 ) reads: The design or, location of the proposed cardroom
will not hinder law enforcement officials in surveillance of
cardroom activities, or in enforcement of this chapter or of state
laws regulating gambling.
We also received from the Fire Marshal a copy of their inspection
of the thirteen (13 ) cardroom tables. The Fire In ecto report
advises "a reasonable degree of fire and life safety , xists at this

March 5, 1992
BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION: Continued
The physical inspection, conducted by :, this Division of the
"California Grand" regarding placement of the three ( 3 ) additional
tables does not seem to violate County Ordinances.
Because this cardroom is within one-half mile of the city limits of
Martinez and Pleasant Hill and is within the town limits of
Pacheco, they will be notified of the date and time of the hearing.
Further, the hearing will be advertised as well as being posted in
the vicinity of the cardroom.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATION
The County collects $500. 00 for change/variance fee and $3 ,715. 83
for the additional three ( 3 ) cardroom tables.
CONCLUSION
An inspection revealed the proposed cardroom with thirteen ( 13 )
tables to comply with the applicable cardroom conditions, however,
Ordinance 52-3 . 509 limits cardrooms to ten ( 10 ) tables, unless
expressly allowed by the Board.
The Sheriff recommends that the request to permit thirteen (13 )
tables at the California Grand (Cardroom License 6) be approved.
Correspondence and other documents relevant to this application are
attached for consideration by the Board. -' � _
