COMMENTS:
The Police Department received Project APLN-DEV 2023-00009 for review. The Cave
Bar is presently licensed with a Type 48 On-Sale General Alcoholic Beverage Control
(ABC) License for the sale of alcohol, wine and distilled spirits, and the business owner
is requesting to expand the premises.
The location is in Census Tract Number 884.02 which has a population of 4,679. This
population allows for 6 On-Sale ABC licenses and there are presently 3 licenses in the
tract. It also allows for 2 Off-Sale ABC licenses and there is presently 1 license in the
tract.
The business address is within Police Reporting District 2224, which is below the city
average in crime, per the offenses reported in 2022. During that time, there were 420
crime reports within a ¼ mile radius from 628 W. Orangewood Ave. The top 3 offenses
were theft (79), motor vehicle theft (40) and assault (35). The purpose of the ¼ mile
radius is to show an accurate representation of the type of crime surrounding the business
address, in spite of its location within the Reporting District.
