A. Types of gaming allowed, including but not limited to card games, on-site horse and dog wagering, sports book, casino games, video gambling, etc.;

B. Hours and days of operations;

C. Location of gaming;

D. Auditing of gaming establishments;

E. Licensing fees or other charges, including charges on a percentage of gross receipts basis, in an amount the Council deems appropriate;

F. Maximum number of players per table;

G. Bets and wagers permitted;

H. Charges for gaming;

I. Licensing, including number of licensees and consolidation;

J. Drinking of intoxicating beverages;

K. Maximum number of tables on premises;

L. Every aspect of operation of gaming establishments.

However, the Chula Vista gaming plan shall not allow any form or type of gaming within the City which is not allowed at least at one other location anywhere within the state of California, or federal or Native American enclave or reservation located within the jurisdictional boundaries of the state.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no gaming plan may be approved by the Council without receipt and consideration by the Council, at a public hearing, of the comments and recommendations of the Chief of Police and the City Manager; and no permit or license thereunder may be issued without the concurrence of both the Chief of Police and the City Council. The gaming plan shall have, at a minimum, a provision that requires permits to be issued to specific operators and makes it mandatory that the permit issuing authority is vested in both the Chief of Police and the City Council jointly. (Ord. 2655 § 1, 1995).
