SUMMARY
In June 2013, the City Council considered amendments to the City's Card Club Regulations to allow for the partial or whole ownership interest sale of the Palace Card Club (the "Club") and added a condition which levied a parking mitigation fee related to the reservation of a space in the City's parking garage at Watkins and B Street to offset impacts the Club's shuttle was generating in the garage. The Club's ownership, Catherine Aganon and Pamela Roberts applied to transfer partial ownership of the club to additional family and long-time employees of the Card Club: Heather Plaza, Compliance Officer, Tami Box, Controller and Human Resources Manager, Richard Box, Assistant Asian Gaming Director, and Henry Tang, General Manager. The Club's ownership also expressed an interest in maintaining the reserved spot within the parking garage and since the fee is expiring in June 2018, there is a need to modify and extend the fee. Staff is recommending a modest increase to the fee and also recommending that an inflationary factor such as CPI be used to adjust the fee over time.
