No outdoor seating has been proposed. Abo's Pizza is currently located at I 1 ] 0 13`h Street and operates daily from l 1 a.m. to 2:30 a.rn. (without alcohol service). Staff consulted with the City of Boulder Police department and examined police calls to Abo's current location for the past seven years. Since 2002 there have been 13 calls to the site for service. A majority of the service calls were placed by management of Abo's for lighting, medical calls and theft. "I'he project site is zoned BMS, (Business Main Street).

Purpose of this Use lleview B. Intensity of ~.ise, noise generated, and the amount of traffic generated C Coordinated times for deliveries and trash collection D. Mitigation of noise impacts E. Graffiti Removal F. Employee education G. Responsibilities as Good Neighbors H_ Methods of dispute resolution with surrounding residential neighborhood I. Neighborhood Outreach J. Hours of Operation K. Client and visitor arrival and departure times L. Security M. Drug and /\IcoI1o1 Policy N. Lighting and Parking O. Loitering A. The purpose of this Use Review Abo's Pizza on the Hill is applying for a Special Use Review to maintain its current and standard operating hours of l 1:OOam - 2:30am seven days a week at the new location ~f 1124 13"'street. Abo's Pizza has been on the I Iill in Boulder since 1977 serving food until 2:30am. Abo's Pizza has moved its location three times since 1977, each time operating under its standard hours of a 1:00am until 2:30am. This would be the fourth (and we hope final) move for Abo's Pizza on the I fill. We feel the new location o[ 1124 13'" Street is an ideal location for Abo's Pizza because of its proximity to the Fox Theater; undoubtedly the most popular venue on the Hill and a slice of Abo's after a show at the Fox has been a tradition since the Fox began. B. The intensity of use, the noise generated, and the amount of traffic generated l he intr~nsity of use, noise generated, and the amount of traffic generated would change very little as ~1bo's has been on the Hill and operating with late-night hours since 1977. We stay open until there arc no more cuslomcrs to sell tu, no more pizza to sell, or 2:3O whirhevcr ronu~,ti f irsl. The new lucalioi~ of I I?~# 1;3 `-~trcet has an increased seating, capa~•ity of I(, seals (or total of (~,`i. L)ue to the nature of serving pizza by the slice and due to the nature of serving food to people coming from the end of a show at the Fox rI'hcater, there is often, after shows, a period when all seats, inside and out, are filled and often the line to buy food is duite long. These "seatless" patrons must then take their purchases outside to eat on the sidewalk, or on their way home. The staff at Abo's is trained in noise rnitif;ation, and peacelul confrontation resolution, but once a pah•on leaves our slrcrt, we c~~nnot do iLla~agement Plan - Ahu's I'i»a mtuh to keep lt~em safe, to keep others ~a(e, or prevent these people from making noise in the neighborhoods. We feel these 16 extra seats will help mitigate potential noises entering the surrounding blocks of residential homes. The proposed business hours for each day of the week are 11:OOam - 2:30am. Please the following paragraphs for a mathematical breakdown of intensity of use (at the current location of 1110 13~'' Street) Abo's Pizza on the Hill generates most of its daily income catering to the late-night crowd. A breakdown of peak periods is as follows; Lunch 1 I :OOa.m. - 6:OOp.m. 35`% Dinner 6:OOp.m. - lOp.m. 25% Late-night IO:OOp.m. - 2:30a.m. 40% Please remember that Abo's Pirza sells pizza until there are no more customers to sell to, no more pizza to sell, ar 2:30am whichever comes first: Meaning that there are many nights when we close the doors well before 2:30a.m. and STILL the how-s of 10pm - 2:30am are STILL our biggest grossing hours. If we look at these numbers from an hourly perspective, the lunch period is 7 hours long, giving an hourly average of 5% per hour. The dinner period is four hours long, giving an average of roughly h% per hour. I,atc: night is shown as lasting 4.5 hours, giving an average of 8.9°/<> per hour. From this breakdown, we can see that the late night period is the most valuable (i.e. generates the most revenue) to Abo's as it represents nearly 1 I/z times more sales than any other period. Further proof of the value of the late-night period was provided by the Flatiron Meal Plan. Tn an analysis spanning from April 6"~ to April 12°i, 2005 it was found there were 121 transactions: 90 transactions before 11:OOpm (a span of 12 hours each day) and 31 transactions after 11:00pm (a span of 3 1/i hours each day) this shows that approximately 25% of sales for 1='latirons customers alone took place after 11:OOpm. The proposed business hours for each day of the week are 11:UOam - 2:30a1xt. Abo's wishes to continue to sell pizza until there are no more customers to sell to, no more pizza to sell, or 2:30am whichever comes first. C. Coordinated times for deliveries and trash collection All deliveries are coordinated with the vetxlars to take place at the same time as other businesses on 13'h Street receive their deliveries. Trash, compost, & recycling are collected by Western Disposal. Furthermore, Abo's has always participated in the 6-day review offered by Western Disposal. `('his ensures that our alley is kept clean during the peak periods of use (particularly student move-out and move-in times). With respect to neighboring apartments, recycling and other noisy items will not be moved to outside containers during the flours of 11:OOpm - 7:OOam. 1VlariagCri1Gt11 Flail - /~EIO'S P1!.`L8 D. Mitigation of noise impacts The intensity of use, the noise generated, and the amount of traffic generated would change very little as Abo's hours of operation for the past 31 years has been until 2:3U every night. Abo's wishes to continue to sell pizza until there are no more customers to sell to, no more pizza to sell, or 2:30am whichever comes first. E. Programs for graffiti removal; Graffiti will be removed by the tenant in a timely manner. F. Employee education An employee meeting is scheduled once a month to discuss employee safety, conflicts & behavior, scheduling, and potential problems/resolutions to customer relations (each season; fall, summer, school breaks and holidays, etc., brings a new category of customer to our business, thus requiring a new technique to handle these challenges.) See also our Alcohol Management Plan (attached) G. Responsibilities as good neighbors Abci s Pizza has been operating on the I-Iill for 31 years with current owners operating since 2002 with no complaints or disputes. Being a 31-year old institution on the I Iill, we feel a great responsibility to our community. 'lhc owner works on site and is sensitive to the interactions between the restaurant, the Hill community, and the surrounding neighborhoods. H. Methods of dispute resolution with the surrounding residential neighborhood. Abu's Pi~.~a has never had a dispute with the surrounding neighborhood, law enforcement, or ether regulatory agencies Abu's staff recognize the duties and responsibilities that come with operating a restaurant and are committed to working openly with all agencies to achieve a safe and harmonious neighborhood. If one should occur, the owner, the manager, and/or ashift-leader would participate in discussions and find resolutions io the problems cited. An employee meciing would then be scheduled to implement these resolutions. Irreconcilable differences will be handled first through mediation, then arbitration, then court proceedings as necessary. I. Neighborhood outreach and methods for future communication; Abo's Pizza is open to communication from any interested party. A representative for Abo's Pi•r.ra strives to attend neighborhood meetings, Hill Alliance meetings, Rl IG meetings (Responsible [ lospitality Group) and other discussions pertinent to business on the f till. 1\larrat;eincnt Plan Al~o'~ 1'ii.r.:r J. Hours of Operation /1bo's Pizza on the Hill has held the operating hours of I 1:UOam - 2:30am seven days a week since 1977. We stay open until there are no more customers to sell to, no more pizza to sell, or 2:30 whichever comes first. K. Client and Visitor Arrival and Departure time Client and visitor arrival and departure times will rema?n the same as normal operating business hours L. Security Abo's Pizza already employs responsible, well trained staff and security persorulel for busier nights. We will employ more if the need arises. There are hidden cameras. M. Drug and Alcohol Policy ~1bo's Pizza has no tolerance for employees or patrons who use drugs. N. Lighting; parking; The restaurant lies within the UHGID parking confines. And while we have never achially taken a survey, we would venture to guess about 70% of the total business is foot traffic. O. Loitering tlbo's Pizza has never had a problem with loitering and holds a zero tolerance on loitering inside or outside the restaurant. In consideration of our patrons and the time it may take away from serving them, please do not inquire on these matters at the current store o£ 111013th Street.

GUIDE Each employee is to read, understand and sign this Responsible Alcohol Service Guide Abo's Pizza on the Mill is committed to creating a safe and inviting environment for every guest. Alcohol service is an important part of our business. Abo's Pizza on the Hill believes that only individuals who are of legal drinking age and can demonstrate responsible moderate consumption will be served alcohol. It is the job of every employee of Abo's Pizza on the I-sill to live up to that philosophy. In order to maintain the integrity of Abo's Pima on the Hill practices, your responsibilities will be discussed in the following sections. Excuse me, I'll take the keys. No Guest who is intoxicated should ever be served alcohol. If the Guest is intoxicated, we should do our best to prevent that individual from driving under the influence. This may mean calling a cab to Abo's Pizza on the Hill, or calling a friend of the Guest. You• look old enough. Yes, we ID. While it may not be polite to ask someone's age, asking to see an IU is a different story. The law states each individual should carry a form of ID. So coven if they look 99 years old, check that 1D! If someone ordering an alcoholic drink looks under the age of 100, ask for an III. Take a few moments to check for telltale signs of falsified IDs. When in doubt, simply say "No.,, STOP! OBSERVE THE CONDITION OF THE PERSON YOU ARE SERVING! t)[~.[~1N[NG ALCO[IOL /~lrc~hol is a chemical substanrc, drug, and a food. DIsP1NING LNTOXICA'TION intoxication is the decrease of physical and mental abilities. Intoxication is the depressed functions of the Central Nervous System, due to alcohol and/or other drugs. "I'he cortex of the brain, the area responsible for thinking, reasoning, and decision making, is affected first. The cerebellum, responsible for posture, motor control, and coordination, is affected second. Intoxication increases as the amount of alcohol in the body increases. This occurs when a person consumes alcohol faster than the liver can break it down. The average body breaks down alcohol at a rate of ahhroximately one ounce of pure alcohol per hour. When a person drinks an alcoholic beverage, there are specific and predictable changes in the persc>n's body and behavior.. As the amount of alcohol consumed increases, the changes become more exlrc•me. 't'his holds true for everycmc~. [:mplr~ycc [.iclur~r n~;rcerr~ent `There are many factors which determine the rate at which a person reaches intoxication. However, dme is the only factor that reduces intoxication. Determining Intoxication "There are two measures to determine intoxication: Blood Alcohol Content. The amount of alcohol in the bloodstream. i3AC continues to increase for 30-90 minutes after drinking has stopped because the alcohol is still being absorbed. Visible Signs of Intoxication. As the person SAC increases, his/her behavior changes visibly. Visible intoxication, rather than [3AC is what the servers and sellers arc required to recognize zn order to determine whether a Guest is intoxicated. KNOW THE LAWS CONCERNING ALCOHOL! It is imperative that every Abo's 1'irza on the I Till employee know and obey the law. Every employee responsible for alcohol service must attend the City of Boulder Liquor Awareness Training class.

F,mployee Liquor n,greeznent /0 ATTACHMENT C USE REVIEW CRITERIA (9-2-15, B.R.C. 1981) (1) Consistency with Zoning and Non-Conformity: The use is consistent with the purpose of the zoning district as set forth in Section 9-5, "Zoning Districts Established," B.R.C. 1981, except in the case of a non-conforming use; The project site is zoned BMS, Business Main Street. The BMS zoning designation, as defined by Section 9-16, B.R.C. 1981, provides for business uses generally anchored around a main street that are intended to serve the surrounding residential neighborhoods and the University of Colorado. The proposed restaurant is located within the most intense area of the University Hill district. Staff finds the proposed use will serve the surrounding area and is consistent with the intent of the BMS zone district. (2) Rationale: The use either: (A) Provides direct service or convenience to or reduces adverse impacts to the surrounding uses or neighborhood; The subject property is located within the "Community Business" land use area identified in the Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan (BVCP). The BVCP states that "community business areas are the focal point for commercial activity serving a subcommunity or a collection of neighborhoods." The University Hill commercial district serves University of Colorado studentslemployees as well as University Hill area residents. Restaurant uses provide a direct service and convenience to the surrounding neighborhood, University and its users. Additionally, area residents benefit from the availability of many dining options within walking distance of both the University of Colorado as well as the University Hill neighborhood. With regard to adverse impacts to the surrounding uses or the neighborhood due to late night operations, staff finds the amended management plan will contain sufficient policies and procedures to address any impacts that may be directly attributed to Abo's Pizza. , N/!~ (B) Provides a compatible transition between higher intensity and lower intensity uses; N/A (C} Is necessary to foster a specific city policy, as expressed in the Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan, including, without limitation, historic preservation, moderate income housing, residential and non-residential mixed uses in appropriate locations, and group living arrangements for special populations; or N/A_ (U) Is an existing legal non-conforming use or a change thereto that is permitted under subsection (e) of this section; 3) Compatibility: The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed development or change to an existing development are such that the use will be reasonably compatible with and have minimal negative impact on the use of nearby properties or for I~' residential uses in industrial zoning districts, the proposed development reasonably mitigates the potential negative impacts from nearby properties; Abo's Pizza is an existing restaurant which currently operates daily from 11:00 a.m. to 2:30 a.m. nearby at 1110 13`h Street. The proposed location is within the most intense portion of the University Hill district and does not maintain any residential units directly above the proposed location and the applicant has not proposed an outdoor patio; therefore staff finds that the proposed hours of operation will have minimal negative impact on the use of nearby. Additionally, staff finds the amended management plan will contain sufficient policies and procedures to address any impacts that may be directly attributed to Abo's Pizza. Abo's proposes to continue to serve a full menu during existing operating hours of 11:00 a.m. to 2:30 a.m daily, while maintaing a primary restaurant use. Staff finds that the proposed location and the proposed hours of operation will not result in any additional impacts to the surrounding area and will remain compatible with the University Hill neighborhood. Further, Abo's has been operating on University Hill in various locations for several years, most recently at 1110 13"' Street. In 2005, the applicant was granted a Use Review approval to extend hours of operation until 2:30 a.m. daily at the 1110 13"' Street Icoation. City staff reviewed police service calls for~1110 13"' back to 2002 and has found that there have been only 13 calls since 2002 for police service to the property. Incidentally, the service calls were initiated by the management of Abo's Pizza for assistance. (4) Infrastructure: As compared to development permitted under Section 9-3.1-1_, "Schedule of Permitted Uses of Land," B.R.C. 1981, in the zone, or as compared to the existing level of impact of anon-conforming use, the proposed development will not significantly adversely affect the infrastructure of the surrounding area, including, without limitation, water, wastewater, and storm drainage utilities and streets; Suitable infrastructure exists in the area to support the proposed restaurant expansion. (5) Character of Area: The use will not change the predominant character of the surrounding area; and The established character along Broadway and 13"' Street within the University Hill neighborhood is defined and characterized by a number of late-night establishments including taverns, restaurants, and concert venues, many with outdoor patios. To the west of the commercial corridor along 13`" Street lies ahigh-density residential neighborhood containing apartments and fraternitylsorority houses. Beyond the high-density residential neighborhood, to the west and southwest, is an established low-density residential neighborhood. The specific restaurant site is located along the most intense portion of the University Hill service I retail corridor. No residential units are directly above to the proposed restaurant and no outdoor seating or speakers have been requested or permitted as a part of the Use Review application. Staff finds the impacts of the proposed hours of operation will remain compatible with the established character of the area and the intent of the business main street zoning district. Staff also finds that the proposal will not alter the predominant character of the surrounding areas. N/A (ti) Conversion of Dwelling Units to Non-Residential Uses: There shall be a presumption against approving the conversion of dwelling units in the residential zoning districts set forth in t~a Subsection 9-3.1-1(a), B.R.C. 1981, to non-residential uses that are allowed pursuant to a use review, or through the change of one non-conforming use to another non-conforming use. The presumption against such a conversion may be overcome by a finding that the use to be approved serves another compelling social, human services, governmental, or recreational need in the community including, without limitation, a use for a day care center, park, religious assembly, social service use, benevolent organization use, art or craft studio space, museum, or an educational use.

He needs good quality tenants. - Most bar/restaurants serve 90%, food, 10% alcohol. Need to serve to survive.

I have r~o objection to a 2 AM closing without liquor service, or to an 11 PM closing with liquor license. I want to remind you that this decision involves the use of the premises, and not the qualifications, or lack thereof, of the applicant. Once the use is granted, the applicant is free to sell the business, and there are no guarantees that the new operator will be any better qualified than the applicant. History has shown that the greater the number of AM liquor licenses on the Hill, the greater the noise, vandalism and discomfort for the adjacent neighbors. As the number of 2 AM licenses has declined, there has been some abatement in the undesirable behaviors that occur when a large number of inebriated adolescents are dumped into the neighborhood at 2 AM. BMS-X zoning was created to allow some measure of control over the undesirable side effects arising from late-night liquor corisurript,on in private business establishments. Ihope you will take this into consideration when reaching your decision. Thank you. Jan C.

No. Currently Abo's is open until 2:30 AM at their existing location at 1110 13th Street. 2) is this a new request to serve liquor, or is Abo's already serving liquor? Abo's does not currently serve alcohol. 3) does the application request an increase in the number of hours for serving alcohol? Yes, since Abo's does not currently serve alcohol, the request would constitute an increase. Thank you.

I simply can't get the Mamacitas "disaster" out of my mind and must register my opinion that I oppose the late closing even with the reduced occupancy load. The near certainty that the liquor license will follow makes it imperative that you take into account that the result of a ruling for approval of the current application, in effect, gives us an additional location that will be serving alcohol after 11 PM. The order of the process seems to penalize us for speaking out now on this matter -yet the meeting you held did allow for input on the alcohol issue so I feel it is necessary that you bring that into your determination. I hope you will bring to the attention of City Council and the riew City Manager the difficulty that the required H & R license puts the owner who wants simply to serve beer in, when a Beer License is all that is needed for this establishment as testified to by Barbara Hunting.

I suggest that your office confirm with the fire department that the capacity of the location has been changed to the 70 figure Barbara told us last night. If that turns out to be incorrect, then I think it calls into question the matter of "telling the truth". Mind you, t simply am wanting some assurance that what we all heard last night is correct since, despite their proposal's statement that they consider their capacity to be 65, if the fire department has the 100-128 capacity in its record, then we have no way of expressing concern.

I think the only way to survive the vagaries of doing business on The Hill is by being a quality, well-run business which is needed and desired by the local community. The simple fact remains that there are more than 25,000 students who attend the university across the street who require local services I Hope the city will not drive away businesses which have shown that they are stalwarts, simply to be replaced by newcomers who come when times are good and go when times are bad. 2-- Regarding the city's liquor licensing issues, my understanding of the process is that a business is required to go through an extensive application process, pre-defined paperwork, background checks, etc. and stating their intent as to how they intended to operate that license. If they fulfill those requirements and present a reasonable plan, the establishment is granted a liquor license. One of the most important aspects of that license being granted is that it is subject to review each year, and if the business doesn't fulfill its requirements or if they operate outside the plan they present, then the liquor license is denied the following year. It seems to me that if a business is not granted a license after presenting a complete application and a reasonable case, it's the same as assuming guilt before a trial. I wish the best of luck to all of you. My home address and phone number are below.

As a frequent visitor and former property owner in Boulder, I believe it is important to continue the tradition of Abo's in the business community, which began in 1977. With the opening of the fall semester at the CU Boulder Campus rapidly approaching, it is important for this decision to be made quickly. As a former elected municipal official in charge of economic development in the community where I live, I know how vital the impact of these decisions are one the overall health of the business community.

These hours at the new location are no different than the hours they currently maintain. I am urging you to approve their operating hours of 11:OOAM to 2:30AM daily so they may open at the new location before the students return for the fall semester. 1 understand that the Planning Board must balance the needs of local residents with those of businesses, but the closure of several high- profile Hill businesses in recent years indicates that the area has become a difficult place to do business. Allowing Abo's to continue receiving a revenue stream from late-night customers will have a significant effect on the viability of the business, but seems very unlikely to have a negative effect on the quality of life for the residential blocks surrounding the Hili.

On a personal note, having Abo's open late is very important to my business. Several times a week bands will request food after they are done loading out their gear and Abo's is often the only place open at that time. Although pizza for the crew doesn't sound like an important part of what we do, but you would be amazed how far a couple pizzas go after the band and crew have been working 15 hour days. And keeping the bands and crews happy is why we continue to be one of the best live music venues in not only the state but the country.

Abo's Pizza has been serving pizza late night since it began in 1977 and has become an institution on the Hill. These hours at the new location are no different than the hours they currently maintain. I am urging you to move quickly and approve their operating hours of 11:OOAM to 2:30AM daily so they may open at the new location before the students return for the fail semester.

As you no doubt realize, Abo's Pizza has become an institution on the Hill and has been serving pizza to students and other customers late into the night since it began in 1977. It is my understanding that there is some question as to the hours of operation at it's new location -merely a few doors down from the location that it has been operating at for several years. The new location's hours are under dispute despite the fact that they will be no different than the current hours that Abo's Pizza on the Hill maintains. This seems to be a strange point of contention as nothing is changing for this business or the Boulder Hill community except the location of a well established and beloved restaurant. In addition, I have great concern that my tax dollars are being spent on such a ridiculous run around issue, while there are greater issues in Boulder county that deserve immediate attention -far more than an address change of a restaurant that students, alumni, and citizens of Boulder County greatly enjoy. As you are aware, the students will be returning soon for the fall semester and this issue needs to be resolved in a timely manner to accommodate that return. I am urging you to move quickly and approve their operating hours of 11:OOAM to 2:30AM daily so they may open at the new location before the students return for the fall semester. If you have any questions or would like further input regarding this issue, please feel free to contact me at any time. S.E. Brits Hakonson 1626 Francis Way Longmont CO 80501 720-935-1790 g~
