>> totally fine. >> so why don't you have a seat i don't know if there's any police comments or conditions you want to speak to. >> good evening lieutenant santos. we concur the department concurs with central station vend, however, we wanted to bring to the attention of the commission something we found in the application in his application under section e of the page 2 down at the bottom mr. hoe states we've operated since 2345067 without complaints or accident i did a review of the liquor licensee had suffered a

disciplinarian action for 2010 cited for 16 violations for consuming alcohol after hours and 6 counts of beverages after hours and 6 violations of abc conditions as a result there was administrative hearing and the licensing was given a 15 day suspension and subsequent he agreed to a fine number two, of the 10 day suspension as we said we don't oppose it but consider that and bring to your attention >> thank you for sharing that. >> lieutenant when was this. >> this was in early 2010. >> four years ago. >> it has been my observation that extend hours premises that

serve food around the corridor at the end not to clean our beer bottles on the table over 2 o'clock i guess it should be strongly suggested to the applicant that 5 anybody's to 2 all bottles put away and can't be sit on the table even if their empty and if you don't have the staff hire them to clear off the bottles. >> yes. the department desire to see that the licensing complies with the laws so they can go without issues. >> thank you lieutenant santos. i'm going to open this open this up for public comment any comments on the application >> come on up and speak into

the microphone. >> heres my speaker card i'm michael i'm going to speak and be neutral on the item but a couple of things i did i looked at their webbed they don't have very much on their website and on yemg they say they're open on saturday and friday to 4:00 p.m. on a.m. and say their noise level is loud so looking at that i wonder should somebody look at how loud does that maple their better businesses this action should be between the streets of geary and post so he misrepresented where they're related to it's between geary and post which say, i think it's maybe instills in the union

shore i don't know the borders but talking to a board member or something recommended to the square bid didn't mean they've talked to the whole organization and they didn't come to my community groups like in district 6. i hope the business the best of for lack of a better term luck i'm worried about the fact they want to be open everyday at 4 o'clock i'm not sure that's the best way to go initially i don't think they're open everyday but the website didn't mention hours that's a question to staff what's their current hours of operation before they were not in guidance were they open everyday until 4. anyway again, i'm neutral on the item but i think they i know

that other businesses on the block when they are going to try to get the after-hour permit they were looked at how we had complaining residents across the street from the condos that to be inspected those who have memory i've been part of the hearings where the residents were upset i'll not mention the name of the businesses but the businesses would impact their quality of life. okay. thank you >> thank you is there any public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. commissioners would someone like to make a motion? >> well, i motion to approve it. obviously, the applicant knows when our have a permit for

extended hours there's a certain good neighborhood policies and obviously you've heard from the union about cleaning up the alcohol so you fall under kind of the same guidelines that the clubs, you know, and people outside making noise. it is kind of a not tolerant especially open after 2 and lots of people wanting to get to sleepy walked by our place >> before you continue speaking asking is there a motion to second. >> i'll second for the purposes of decision. >> what you you have the door closed i don't hear anything that's all i have to say and keep the music low we're not going for an entertainment permit. >> i seconded it for the

perspires of discussion i've been out there at three and four in the morning doing the inspectors with the inspectors after hours eating places i find that the background music generally i don't know about this place is not an issue what's in issue is the human speech within the restaurant its late at night and the bars are closed and people are tipsy and louder then they would be in not if the tipsy so that's allowed as human speech there's only so many control over human speech it's basically permitted it's not them playing their ipod.

>> is there any additional public comment there's a moved and seconded and so people are aware central station recommended as a condition they install cameras and that the video be recorded for thirty days cameras outside. it didn't say that in the language but we can specify >> i have a question for staff planning will allow them to be open till 47 days a week. >> yes. >> the permit isn't until 6 right 6:00 a.m. >> they can go to 6:00 a.m. but the commission has the ability to condition hours. >> right. so hearing that anyone want to modify or vote on this particular motion? >> we have a motion and a second and this motion has to

vote. >> be voted on. >> pass or fall. >> would you accept a friendly amendment from the police department with a video camera outside. >> yeah. i don't have is a problem with that. >> i don't have a problem. >> and a central station proofing it for 7 days a week or to 2 the application says two days a week. >> do you have this i can pass it over it doesn't specify only speaks to the camera. >> well i can't tell if central station knows he wants to be open 7 modernize a week because the application says 2. well technically all permits unless they ask for a particular

condition are for they may plan to operate twice a week or we understand but unless we condition them they get the full rights of permit. do you have something to clarify >> i want to be clear on the motion. >> yes. >> are you going to restrict the hours until 4 or restrict the hours friday and saturday or just flat out - >> the motion stands as the motion. >> the motion to approve with the police conditions. >> and that's it. >> okay. on the motion to approve with the condition from the sfpd commissioner campagnoli. commissioner lee. commissioner joseph. commissioner hyde. commissioner perez. president tan.

>> congratulations the motion passes we're going to move on to our next permit. >> all right. so the next one is for the village located on the 969 market street we've received an e-mail earlier asking this application be postponed until august 5th so on that we need a motion to go ahead and postpone. >> okay same house, same call? >> yes, ma'am. so moving right along the next one is for bartlett haul and richard is applying for a new permit a new restaurant on the ground floor of the spauld hotel it's been a welcome option for the travelers, etc. and expecting the entertainment will be small ensembles billions

security personnel and a eloquent security system and have agreed to comply with the thirty day minimum that's no issue and naturally as a good neighbor we'll remove graffiti hopefully not in union square. we request or the police requested a security guard application we're a restaurant preliminary we have a right-of-way capacity we're a bar but we anticipate this house of request for the place of entertainment request a number of people want to come to us and buy out so in the capacity of the wedding party the jp morgan they want a guitar ensemble or something like that we don't see

drums or a tub by a or anything that makes enjoys the request is that was are regarded the police having the security personnel we think it's practical to keep the costs down that it be at one hundred people and it be for events over 9:30 p.m. we're looking forward to working with the commission >> thank you very much commissioner joseph. >> hi so your occupancy is 2 hundred and 14. >> yes. >> so the code requires that you have securities every one hundred patrons when entertainment is present. >> exactly. >> so one security guard won't do it's 2 hundred and 14 if i

meet our occupancy you're required to have two. >> we'll welcome that that we have no issue it's the 75 was neither fish for foul we wanted one hundred activity. >> so commissioners any other questions. commissioner lee >> oh. i'm back can you come back up >> as you heard earlier we have sound issues with buildings with live music things like that are you doing any sound proofing at all with the band or sound stage is. >> we don't have a stage we double sheet rocked and have sound installation instead of and shawn burke is going to do his sound testing tomorrow we welcome that. so we're perpetrate as was mentioned we're next to the bill
