Citrus Heights council approves Grocery Outlet alcohol-letter, adopts nonprofit grant allocations and names League delegate
Summary
At its Sept. 10 meeting, the council unanimously approved a letter of public convenience for a Grocery Outlet Type 21 alcohol license at 5409 Sunrise Blvd., adopted recommended nonprofit grant allocations (Junior Achievement vote taken with the Vice Mayor recused), approved consent items and appointed a League of California Cities delegate.
The Citrus Heights City Council took several formal actions at its Sept. 10 meeting.
Grocery Outlet alcohol license: Allison Bermudez of the planning division briefed the council on a request for a Type 21 off-sale alcohol license for a new Grocery Outlet at 5409 Sunrise Boulevard (the former Rite Aid location). The application was reviewed under California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control rules for concentrated census tracts and a 1,000-foot vicinity analysis. Police and a local property owner submitted support. Council member Schaeffer moved to approve a letter of public convenience and necessity to allow issuance of the Type 21 license; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote.
Consent calendar: The council approved the consent calendar (items 8–10: Sylvan Community Center rental fee schedule update; economic development support fund allocation with Greater Sacramento Economic Council; and banking services RFP) by motion and unanimous voice vote.
Nonprofit community support fund allocations (FY 25–26): Economic Development Director Megan Huber presented recommendations from a $150,000 fund; the Quality of Life Committee recommended $132,300 in awards after reviewing 12 applications. Multiple nonprofit representatives addressed the council to describe programs and funding needs. Council approved Junior Achievement’s recommended award in a separate motion with Vice Mayor Lopez Taft recused because of employment ties; Council then moved and seconded a resolution approving the recommended bundle of nonprofit awards, which passed by voice vote.
League of California Cities delegate: Because the League required delegate notification before Sept. 24, the council nominated Council member Kelsey Nelson as the voting delegate and designated an alternate (Mary Jane, the outgoing delegate). Staff will notify the League per the stated deadline.
