DESCRIPTION:A note from John Leoppold:\n\nin the unincorporated portion of Santa Cruz 
 County there are no permitted retail gun operations. Recently I  learned 
 that a gun store is looking to open in Live Oak. When I asked County staff 
 what regulations are in place for this type of business that would assure 
 safety for our community I found that the County does not have any specific 
 zoning regulations for gun shops. As a result, this coming Tuesday I will 
 be asking the Board of Supervisors to adopt a temporary moratorium on the 
 establishment of any new retail operations for the sale of firearms and 
 ammunition to allow time for the County to study and recommend reasonable 
 regulations associated with this type of business. With national attention 
 focused on the issue of gun violence and regulations, it is timely that our 
 county also thoughtfully establish sound policies. I am attaching my 
 request to the Board.  The item will be heard at 10:15 a.m. on Tuesday, 
 January 15, in the Board Chambers, 701 Ocean Street, 5th Floor. I invite 
 you to please come and tell Board members how you feel about the need for 
 effective firearm regulations and the  establishment of this moratorium. If 
 you know people who cannot attend in person, please have them visit the 
 Board’s webpage 
 (http://sccounty01.co.santa-cruz.ca.us/bds/Govstream/ASP/Display/SCCB_AgendaDisplayWeb.asp?MeetingDate=1/15/2013) 
 and look at item 43 and then click on the envelope to share their thoughts 
 with the entire Board of Supervisors.\n
