>> good evening i'm the president of the merchants neighborhood association. we're here in full support of the sanchez. i won thing that's occurred along the corridor and will be happening a lot more is that there's a lot of businesses because the rents is going high we have another one that moved into together they doing the same thing their operating in the daylight as one business and at night as another. the permit process gets xufg but it's something you'll be seeing a lot more. the pop ups are here for a week or two or maybe a day.
10:31 am
we're seeing more that are long-term. i know there's several cafes that are able to sell margaritas and other liquor store to create like other liquor store so people can serve is alcohol not specifically for one drink by it has to be a certain amount. i grew up on 12th and hamming sure my appearance live right around is corner and their 82 years old. they're very up standing individuals. another business habsz has been operating on 12th street and
10:32 am
another thing i want to bring up we've seen an increase in calls to a lot of our businesses to the health department to the fire department and harassing a lot of the businesses on 12th street. this is suspect to us. we've seen a lot of calls through 311. they go out to suspect and it still goes into the files of the businesses so that's one thing i wanted to bring up it's suspect to me. >> thank you. next speaker, please hi. i've known been familiar with the sanchez for the past 25 years. when i worked for a large
10:33 am
company downtown i if they had they were looking for grant money and i got a half a dozens of people and sanchez was able to facilitate getting them grants that was about 10 years ago. i've been going to the live events and i've gone probably at least 20 times and i haven't seen any visions when i've been there. so - i know they also end the mieveng when their sfoeptd to she's strict. i've lived in san francisco for thirty years so - thank you. >> thank you. any of the remaining speakers here against
10:34 am
the sanchez. you have every right to speak but i'm going to speed the meeting along. >> i don't have no fancy title but she's my mom. i want to ask you guys to grant this. we've been through a lot of turmoil lately and to get krichd and go somewhere else and now we've got an up to this point it's difficult. i think this new little entertainment in the patio would help my mother a lot because we're struggling. to do that man i'd appreciate it nobody wants to see their mother struggling. we need your help, you know.
10:35 am
i'm not afraid to ask but i want to ask you guys grant it and not look at it as negative. if you koo can look at my mom's name it's clean. you see the absence abc laughing i ask you grant it. thank you >> thank you. >> i'm here to ask for you to support sanchez. i've gone to many fundraiser and she opens her doors to everyone. thank you >> thank you for keeping that
10:36 am
short. >> hi i'm an employee with the city and county of it san francisco. i've lived in the mission district about 20 years i've seen changes wave after wave we've had the dot comers coming in. now we've got this new wave of money coming in. it's like the dot comers on steroids. we're seeing is pattern over the mission district. and sanchez has been an important asset to the community and now they've changed ownership to try to carry on it's traditions. the very fact we got this
10:37 am
merging going on with two traditional businesses trying to keep things going on here. there's going to be unchartered territories that not everybody understands. a lot of this kind of stuff is new. and right now looks like that for whatever reason this establishment has been targeted i don't know if it's on a vendetta for one person not just mission with the city as a whole we're starting to see this new money coming in and pushing out the old businesses one way or another. if it's not twice the amount it's running the red tape through there.
10:38 am
to drag them in with the little legal technical cattle's. i've got to say we've got to keep sanchez going. it's a valuable asset of the community and we just got to do what we got to do. thank you >> i'll try to keep it short. i'm really sad to see the officers of the law and giving half truth without giving any other facts of whether or not this was a citation and the fact they go into is a business and
10:39 am
shut it down because they say there's not supposed to be any papers serviced from the health department or whatever. you've got to take into consideration they want you to follow our rules. this is not a hearing on the health department it's a hearing on a permit to play music for people to be happy. now i'm thinking i might not be able to celebrate my mothers 88 birthday. when you can't have the music on the patio you're stuck inside the restaurants people are happy they go from the patio to the restaurants and have someone come up and give half truths about a business a that's part
10:40 am
of the community. you've got people running around with tattoos. it breaks my heart that those are officers that are sworn to protect us and i feel like i'm not being protected and i'm really upset thank you. thank you >> thank you i'm going to close it at this point. >> i'd like to make a motion. >> go for it. >> first to say that i do get it's difficult that this commission is not targeting anyone. that's not what we do here. we're not stopping anyone from having their business as sanchez can gone just not for entertainment for the next
10:41 am
couple of weeks until it's stranded out. i'm confused as to whether the business changed hands or whether a partnership a was formed. those are two different business models. in order for us to do our due diligence we have to understand the business entity and the - i'm going to ask this to be continued and hopefully in that period of time the actual ownership and paperwork will reveal the and we'll know who owners the business and what form it is. so and i hope staff can like consultant with the city
10:42 am
attorney and find out if those types of businesses are legal can she actually be there the whole 89 yarldz. its very convoluted and we can't give the permit. having said that i ask it be continued until the next meeting >> is there a second. >> we want to know exactly and it's for your own protection too. if one person has is venue under their name and if the other person does something wrong is could affect the kitchen place itself it has to be clear and that's pretty much why the city
10:43 am
attorney wants to continuous this. not just for the protection of the partners but for the public too >> so maybe it's just me but i thought the reason you came in here because the city attorney's office said there was definitely a change of ownership. as so far as the violations and questioning whether or not they can do business this has no bearing on whether or not we can grant a permit this is a permit that allows limited live treatment in a restaurant. so far as i know the restaurants has been sold or else they wouldn't be here >> do we know that for sure. >> we were advised by the city attorney's by code improvement that the business had been sold
10:44 am
and that's why ms. sanchez came in and reemployed because we couldn't use the limited live performance registered to that address with 94 imply owners. >> i've contacted supervisor campos office and i'm going to be talking with them and i'm sure that office about be more than happy to work together. i think we got con violated to throb those things that have inform bearing. >> i tend to agree with you. here's the deal. we say the business has been solid they say it's a partnership which is not the same thing as the business being
10:45 am
sold. if you take a partner and change the structure it's not the same thing. we have to be really clear so i'm keeping my motion >> so there's a motion to continue this to the next meeting and we'll have more willfully discussion. >> it will be on september 13th (calling names). >> the motion passes and this is continued until the next meeting september 17th. >> that's correct. >> go ahead. >> we're moving on. >> i wanted to advise the whole commission that the sheriff's department is waiting for us to vacate this building and we're
10:46 am
the last business meeting and to disperse the protest. >> so can i move we continue the balance of the agenda until the next meeting is that possible. >> yes. >> can i move all the agenda items in one motion. >> i'm willing to entertain that. >> you know i'm sorry but future business items there's a lot of stuff i want to get going here i'm sorry. it's late but i don't think it's the business items. >> it's not a matter of being late by of the sheriff's department. >> i can have future business items outside this meeting we're trying to end this meeting as soon is possible. can i make one request the
10:47 am
