12:00 pm
went by to see number one, the companies were upheld so a citation was issued and this past weekend we see the side door was open on one place after two verbal violations we'll follow-up with a citation if we see that again, it's interesting to say we after all this time and the recent complaints we have a residential sound test and a quick updated from the red deflg 65 polk we've agreed to keep the side door closed after 9 o'clock and we're working with
12:01 pm
the management to try to quill some neighborhood concerns club malibu and the chapel have been issued new things to their proprieties they've going up and down gone through training with their staff urging the decimal meters we'll be endorsing that and last bit - the piece was a meeting with staff and sfpd on july 9th this meeting was called after an original incident on june 8th and one incident that was fairly publicized in the media online and a photocopy incident i witnessed on
12:02 pm
june 22nd some concerns over security and those were addressed within the first meeting on july 9th. any questions for me? >> go ahead commissioner joseph. >> you can give them decimal level but the problem is the base did you tell him they had to turn off their frequency sisters i understand the neighbors are vibrating it's not the upper decimal level but the base how are you addressing that. >> i work with them closely we're hearing or what i heard with the residential sound tests it was the drums it was tubbing by a it was frequency that they're not amplified through
12:03 pm
their pa and they've got a couple of options to do this they can modify their booking or try to use a couple of strategies to have people play quieter and really manage their sound checks and booking progresses to try to manage the annoying noise that's escaping. i think the dj aspect under control the part through the pa is under control the issue is trying to determine the mreflgz the raw instruments are producing >> they have a whole wall that's just like sheet not sheetrock - help me i don't know the word. >> plywood. >> plywood that's not sufficient are they going to
12:04 pm
sound prove it. >> they've sound proved accident rear inside walls that go up the alley one time they were thought to be the culprit and i think that the plywood wall on the alley is an issue as well as the ventilation system the real issue after going into the residences the real issue is the skylights. >> skylight and the base is shooting through the skylight a block est not just the residents on the alley but one block up is seeing it so in my experience if the building isn't something conceptually with an owner you can modify the modification has to come from the booking and the management of sound check so i
12:05 pm
think those two circumstances are pretty similar. but when it comes to they are different the chap he and malibu when our allowing alps to be turned up and hit a certain level it's harder to manage those raw implementations at malibu. but it's i don't think it's our issue their building is not up to - >> but they can box in the skylight. >> they can but i think at this point the residents shouldn't have to wait for that process to be implemented. >> okay. thank you. >> any other questions for inspector burke. mr. poly i didn't say going to
12:06 pm
wake up i recorded on friday he's golden going to wrap up on saturday >> can i make one quick comment i know we put dates on the reports but can you put those across the citations thank you. >> hello, again i'm going to talk about saturday night it was a little bit more racked than friday it was cold and quiet so basically, we decided to do was follow-up with the night before on rye and made sure they were in compliance to keep the backdoor shut this was the source of sound bothering the neighborhoods they were in compliance i conducted a walk through at club monroe for training purposes the club was
12:07 pm
added capacity but no problems observed we used the house of security to keep the sidewalks clear for the minor problems the night before. we the two inspectors one at feedbox 314 a basic permit and check they were in compliance and the same time at butter they were in compliance that was the only thing notable on saturday >> commissioner hyde. >> i was thinking about malibu i have not gotten a lot of e-mails recently are they doing better or. >> i did not receive any they've got my direct line at work and on my cell phone i've
12:08 pm
met with all 3 resident personally in their homes. i did not receive a message this past wendy informed them i wanted to hear from them in if the sound became too much for them and i didn't receive that. i think they have the conversation the issue is being addressed and this weekend will be the start of pretty hard enforcement about this decimal level or malibu could have a weekend where the band were not allowed but i think over the course of the past two weeks me requiring them to purchase a sound meter they've have harder restrictions inside.
12:09 pm
i hope maybe that they've made an extra special effort but acknowledgment will tell so i think things have calmed down and things calmed down after i visited the residence >> yeah. i was wondering because if it's because if it's not the base it's the bands that's one of the original issues they have to tune down the bands we talked about that. >> right. >> a that's why. >> and they're not booking an array of different acts to cut out a metal band here. >> i know that amplifying the trumpets is that still
12:10 pm
happening. >> i've yet to witness any brass anything like the keyboards and base guitars but the real source the things i'm hearing that night from the residents homes was definitely a kick on the tubbing by a. >> yeah. and i love your anti tub by a. >> their distinct they make a distinct sound i love it, too. there's a comment from commissioner lee >> when you talk to the owners are they planning to update their installation that when you talk about the skylight. >> so the big issue that faces malibu is the inability of the building owner to make upgrades.
12:11 pm
i wasn't involved that the preliminary discussions as far as trying to enclosure the ventilation or the skylights but the impression i'm under the building ownership will not allow them to install sound proofing on the roof and the building person will not pay for sound proofing to be installed they're in a bit of a testimony too here. >> any suggestion of sound curtain maybe behind the band. >> i think i think that's not the source of the issue. and they don't have neighbors that will be disturbed out in front of the building or really on the side of the building >> it helps to absorb some of
12:12 pm
that. >> yeah. i think the only way to do the booking they're doing now and to have the type of club that they're going for is to make some really. >> changes. some improvements that's been not allowed by ownership >> i have a question for staff is that an issue for code enforcement to the building owner? interest does anyone know. >> so in our meetings with the club ownership not the building owner the building owner was told by the city to install the ceiling fan he didn't want anybody touching it it could be but it was required by the city
12:13 pm
by tut the building department can pose that to the building department to see if they'll pursue it but some point i don't think so. >> malibu has investment everything in their power we're going to end up saying they can't have live music for something like that because it leaks out and the building cannot be fixed i mean. >> that could be the case there's evenings they were able to have music and control it we'll have to be strict on what they're putting out there. >> commissioner hyde. no >> one question about malibu when you're at on optimal level
12:14 pm
when jordan is trained how is it going to be divided only one inspector on duty or two, how is it. >> we've been by that time around so we don't necessarily know what's going to work best we've discussed the geography and discussed the benefit of having a team and know the down falls of having individual spishgsdz without someone outlook their behavior that's a little bit of both going forward i don't want those guys to get two familiar with one part of the city and not knowing when there's a flop. >> let's open up for public
12:15 pm
comment i don't see seeing none, public comment is closed. >> keeping this on to police department questions or comments. >> all right. mr. santos. >> ladies and gentlemen, of the commission and president tan good evening. i'm lieutenant ed santos i work for the san francisco police department licensing unit i want to bring to your attention an action against the permit establishment and a nonpermitted establishment on june 13th the california acholic beverage endorsement served two search warrants on polk street and the guest house the purpose of the search

12:27 pm
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
12:28 pm
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
12:29 pm
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
12:30 pm
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 openve
