2:43 pm
alleyway the meeting with two-fold to go over the issues the seller brought ultimate you u up as well as swrs how the police department can help with the security at the club and the other part we want to go over was the best practices for the club the meeting was two-fold they talked about the incident that have occurred over at the parking lot we ran the staff there are that a few not too many but the ones that were just recently at the commission hearing we talked about the robbery with one the patrons that left the club at gun point and there's a food illegal food vendor in the area not a big deal but as far as people coming out of the club now, it's time to go they'll go to a restaurant
2:44 pm
or home new sunnydale 20 or thirty people around a hotdog vendor and some of intoxicated or loud it's a disturbance for the neighbors and also increases the exposure so for fights if someone is cutting in line we're making sure to step up the enforcement of the vendor i personally went out on fire hydrant at 1115 before he set up shop not a lot of hot plates and food they needed to shut it down and not have permits for that i said if you can be he'll be sited the other thing is the parking lot i talked with officer from the permit bureau they're to mandate security on friday and saturday night we looked the security
2:45 pm
from 12 midnight through 3 clock in the morning on friday and saturday night as well as best practices we've noticed our concerns as far as some of the bottle services going on the bottle service there's a couple of different issues one he's got a bottle on the tackle could be used as a weapon as far as people president you you know the feeling of a special occasion maybe a crock bottle not glass that can hit someone but we'd like sewer and not a bottle san francisco sfifrs they said they had a waitress that will serve the drinks but having the bottle is a temptation for someone unless the hospital 'tis test is
2:46 pm
sticking around it's difficult to monitor that that's some of the different things they'll look at their bottle service as far as incidents in the district there was threats by a doorman at the salon on grant street and we're looking at this matter and we'll look whether he has a guard guard to make sure they're properly trained there was aggravated assault on january 17th there was a person hanging out for a couple of hours when we went into the establishment they kicked him out and that point he became violent and picked up an ash tray at the same time the police
2:47 pm
took him into custody the club didn't do anything wrong but i would like if someone is a problem outside they're not a patron but bothering the patrons give us a call maybe other issues but we'd like the club to be able to you know have a good time for their customers as well as not have this person out in front of causing problems we had a disturbing the peace the police responded to a noise containment we looked at it 8 to 10 people with loud music going on the owner claimed they were having a private party with family members it was sent to the you entertainment commission and the a l you and at 10:30 in
