wanted to say but i promised my neighbors that i will not disturb them. i will reach out to them. i have reached out to everyone. some neighbors have concerns. whatever it takes, i will do it. i have a good record. my word is good. thank you very much commissioners for taking the time to hear me. please grant what we are asking. >> i have a number of speaker
6:14 pm
cards. >> about nine months ago, i presented you with this request for a written determination. i have spent about a hundred hours looking at the neighborhood. one thing i came away with is that the hotels were telling us that if we had it, we would see them. the customer base does not come here for entertainment. they end up going over the hill to north beach or somewhere else.
6:15 pm
secondly, i did an extensive outreach to the neighborhood as i always do. i thought at least 50 merchants to sign on. i got the units association to sign on. most of you know that i provide unbiased consensus. i just wanted to say in the end that this block has come a long way. i think this comedy club idea will fit in really well. the entertainment is going really well. >> good evening, commission. i have a new-found respect for
6:16 pm
the ability to navigate mine new ship. -- navigate small details. i think the music and comedy is extremely important. i could not be more pleased. thank you so much. >> the new businesses that have come and have really improved the area. i think that this will help to continue the process.
6:17 pm
i think this will complement a lot of restaurants in the area. this is a very important area. >> thank you. >> i am resident of the marina. the thought of live entertainment hicksites me a lot. this is really needed in the neighborhood. if this was thursday, it would be detrimental to the whole culture of the area.
6:18 pm
>> thank you. >> unfortunately, i had to leave early. i am a business owner and a patron of fillmore. being able to keep the business opened is critical. this motion is not only important for the club but it will benefit union street which we all know needs work. this will allow us to create more jobs that are needed and also to have more hotel customers. thank you. >> thank you.
6:19 pm
>> there are a lot of bars in this area. the restaurants, you have this parsing and you have the restaurants in between. i support everything and everyone has said. thank you. >> i was born and raised in the marina. my family has three restaurants on the block.
6:20 pm
i am one that has been around there forever. i have seen them come and go. wednesday, they have loud music going on right across the street. i'm nervous as well. the noise level is at the front of the house not at the back. i think the people that are posed, at the back. my mother sleeps in the back of the house. most of the noise comes directly from the alleyway and permeates from the street.
6:21 pm
it doesn't bother me, i sleep through everything. if they want to do that on thursday night, i don't mind. i have talked to the neighbors, they're happy to have them there. they are two french women that have been taken there. they are all in favor of it. thank you.
6:22 pm
>> i'm here to support my dead on it in a full entertainment license. he works very hard to make sure that this stays open. he would be making sure that there were no noise complaints. i would almost guarantee you that there would be no noise complaints. >> i am here representing my
6:23 pm
building. i feel a little bit of american coming up here. i don't think that one music right behind my bedroom until two in the morning. i am not opposed to a comedy club. i think that this the can be accomplished on thursday. four hours into my 8 hours of sleep is a lot. he has made a lot of adjustments. my main concern is with the change going with the property. he says he will own it forever
6:24 pm
and handed over to his son. i just want to be sure that everyone knows that i am not opposed to him. i'm not planning on moving anyone soon. at this one to voice that and on behalf of my neighbors as well. >> i have met you before. i am here to show my support. a probably have some selfish reasons to be here. the block is absolutely
6:25 pm
struggling. any more entertainment would be much appreciated. selfishly, i am excited about having none drinking in attainment. i am very excited. >> is there additional public comment? >> good evening commissioners. i am a san francisco resident. i am in support of the license. >> thank you. public comment is closed. >> i approve with staff
6:26 pm
conditions. >> second. >> there has been a lot of support for the later hours. i would like to see that. i don't know but i think this is a good project either way. perhaps i am not quite sure of the procedure but perhaps if we begin with this there might be a possibility of coming back. >> >> might we give them six months? >> i would rather do it to the
6:27 pm
other way. that is how we do it with the day news that have made this kind of request. they basically have proved themselves to the neighborhood. >> i am sure it will be successful and everything will be great. the neighbor is adjacent and i also support the reasoning of the staff. >> i would go along with that also. blinder stand that there is in a situation which has become a
6:28 pm
major night. it seems the most that is being crafted. that is a fair way of approaching it for the neighborhood. >> do you feel comfortable with that? >> i think that is fine. there is not a lot of opposition but what we do have this from very close neighbors.
6:29 pm
>> are you suggesting that this is a condition and that they come back? >> they can do that. >> you just want to make sure that you're open to considering? >> when you ask them to come back with a new application to extend thursday night about? are you one team to review those? >> well, it cannot be automatic. i think it would need to be new. >> or modification. >> this is six months. >> that means that this is basically the same and they don't have to pay for w
