NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING The City Council of Beverly Hills, at its adjourned regular meeting to be held on Tuesday, August 31, 2010, at 7:00 p.m., in the Council Chambers of the City Hall, 455 N. Rexford Drive, Beverly Hills, CA 90210; will hold a public hearing to consider: AN ORDINANCE EXTENDING INTERIM ORDINANCE 10-O-2585 OF THE CITY OF BEVERLY HILLS PRO- HIBITING THE ESTABLISHMENT OF MARIJUANA DISPENSARIES, STORES, CO-OPS, OR MARIJUANA CULTIVATION OPERATIONS IN ANY ZONING DIS- TRICT OR OVERLAY ZONING DISTRICT WITHIN THE CITY, AND DECLARING THE URGENCY THEREOF This time extension would extend the period that Interim Ordinance 10-O-2585, which was originally adopted with a 45- day effective period, by 6-months until March 5, 2011 to allow adoption of a permanent ordinance regulating such uses. This time extension ordinance has been assessed in accordance with the authority and criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the State CEQA Guidelines, and the environmental regulations of the City. It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the adoption and imple- mentation of an extension of the interim ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment. The proposed time extension and associated interim ordinance do not authorize construction and, in fact, impose greater restriction on certain development in order to protect the public health, safety and general wel- fare. The proposed time extension ordinance is therefore exempt from the environmental review requirements of CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b) (3) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. All interested persons are invited to attend and speak on this mat- NOTICE OF ter.

It’s not every day that a City can create its own unique holiday and Beverly Hills will do it in signature style! The “City with the Zip” is taking ad- vantage of the convergence of the date 9.02.10 and its world-famous zip code to throw a party for the entire community, children included, on September 2, 2010.

On 9.02.10, the top of the Robinson’s-May parking structure next to the Beverly Hilton Hotel will be transformed into a magical dining area and live-music venue. The celebration features 40 Beverly Hills restaurants showcasing their ﬁnest culinary creations. Grammy nominee Natasha Bedingﬁeld of Unwritten and Pocketful of Sunshine fame will headline an evening of world-class entertainment.

The celebration continues through the Labor Day weekend as 9.02.10 Day leads into the “Taste of Beverly Hills,” a festival of gourmet food and ﬁne wine. The “Taste,” sponsored by Food & Wine magazine, is an epicurean delight that includes live cooking demonstrations from celebrity chefs, tastings from local restaurants such as Darioush, Il Pastaio, Farhang, Xi’an, Taste of Persia, Crustacean, Spagos and many more. A portion of the proceeds will beneﬁt the Beverly Hills Education Foundation (BHEF).

The 9.02.10 event will be produced with no direct cost to taxpayers due to the generosity of community-based sponsors.
