6:02 pm
xhufrn with about has been extended a few times so this is the most flushed out plan they've given us previously i heard about the repositioning of speakers and getting noise meter and drapes on board of directors this lastly tenants has been physical upgrades. >> so when. >> i'm unsure at this point. >> can you if the. >> yes. >> and club malibu what are we going to do shawn. >> were in a position based on code with one more citation they will be in front of the commission there's also. >> in front of the commission for why for reconditioning their permit. >> there's things we can do in

phenomena of superstition or administratively too. >> that's awesome and the bay conference center they are habitual. >> there was progress made they actually found all the windows that faced the residential unit across the street that was a surprise when i was there so i think it is a matter of being more active i think this a matter of not finally having the resources to make additional upgrades the phenomena in the windows is a good first step hoping to work to communicate better ways to detract decimals but ultimately having someone on site better communication of the rules to people that bring in sound systems having people not
6:04 pm
bring in sound systems only the system prosecute purchased by the center there are things that can be done not being done i'm hoping the citation will reencourage that. >> what kind of events and how frequently. >> it is enter ment a rental space the last time they were in front of staff we advised them to buy a sound like system which that he did and anytime i've had explanation with the complainants has been outside of the sound like systems. >> okay. >> or a night they don't have someone on staff that actively is using a meter it is something that can be contained and controlled and certain nights for whatever reason it is not being.

6:06 pm
excess of ambient code. >> he should know that. >> he should know that and he knows the outside ambient. >> it is on this 8. >> some people don't know. >> well, you know my interpretation is that he has difficulty putting a foot down when net sometimes i've seen this in multiple comparability impatient when it comes to decreasing the decimal on the meter taking that action is sometimes difficult one of the things i noticed that night in particular was once any presence was known by more than him things starting taking place more vitals to the sound like booth and other people saying i'm helping to organize the event and in a quick amount of
6:07 pm
time things got fixed. >> when i told him to turn it do you think they were pretty crotch but said none affirmed. >> you've got to be more forward. >> i agree. >> he turned amps down. >> let's wrap up the comments and open up for public comment thank you staff for the great report one thing that was missing i don't know is that introduction to our new deputy director. >> all right. i was going to get to that on a concern term say hello to maggie. >> hi maggie welcome. >> thanks that's it i guess all right. >> wow.

6:14 pm
abatement test for the space last week supervisor campos legislative aide joseph and i had a successful meeting with the labs correspondent with the pier building manage from missouri joe and the outcome was the final agreements between the lab in the building other tenants have had past noise issues expressed their approval the sound level during their sound tests in the space in the building the lab expressed their commitment to the tenants of the building to one keep the show to the decimal level and provide a phone number for all sound levels issues or do a sound meter set of the 3 having a quieter events made possible by advance notice and provide a public calendar so
6:15 pm
tenants will know of the lab shows and allow others tenants to post their events so there is transparency and hopefully avoid conflicts and the tenants want the district of columbia level not be increased until testing is done mission station supports this application and submitted the conditions as you can see and here to talk about the lab is applicant deanna. >> can i ask one quick question is this coming into compliance issue. >> great i'm not sure why after so many years we're asking. >> their custodial non-inclines and are you recommending those permits attached. >> that will be recommended because that was what will come up between the other tenants in the building and the lab and it
6:16 pm
was you know look at coming. >> hi supervisors i'm president to thank maggie and the staff to the patience and others and especially joseph is the aide to supervisor campos and has been absolutely wonderful so, yes, the experience issue is definitely an issue the lab is a precious case for 5 years i took over 10 months ago and as a curator trying to right the ship with new operating procedures and complete overhaul of everything i've been working with them and not understanding the complaint i've noted
6:17 pm
received a single complaint many other tenants in the building and with mow joe we put in a sound proof ceiling that didn't permit the lower ceiling on the floor we were able to do the sound test with maggie and joseph present there the decimals level explicit create a change we did another sound test with peter and put of but 80 hertz low frequency sound and i did create more 8 decimal differences between the minimal 55 level so that was a problem and for you know for this time i made a commitment to turn down the base level frequencies on the lower level external shows that coupling come through so yeah that's what we're trying to do
6:18 pm
>> great commissioners you guys have any questions for the applicant. >> commissioner joseph. >> i have one good for you to know what basis frequencies to turn down i have a question on security so the security a you'll volunteers. >> that's correct. >> so the description of a volunteer they volunteer to do a job but not paid they don't have to be there so you assign a volunteer to the door and they decide they don't want to do it and walk away the possibility of it not being a paid security person concerns me someone that is actually working for you agreed. >> i understand you're a nonprofit. >> yeah. >> but i'm concerned i don't have a real security guard and our volunteers are not trained. >> yeah. >> they're not trained no security not backgrounds and what necessary need to do and i
6:19 pm
don't like our security plan i understand you're an arts organization and theatre i still think you need a security guard it is trained and relying will are you willing to do that. >> we approved in our budget in the concern i work the door so i'll sitting there and basically auditing people coming in the door we have 49 occupants it is is manageable crowd but there, there is a rear door i've been having trouble with the rear door leads to the hallway and it is from the doors in the building are not locked their locked after 5 we have an event before 5 people walk to the front door into the back you found i've moved our events avenue 5 in all ticketed events and all events that require a
6:20 pm
door management and guard so this is definitely a concern for me our budget was approved with the board we raised some money last year we're putting on two full-time paid staff members to work those fentsdz. >> will one of them be a security guard. >> yes. >> will we have a security guard. >> can they do testing. >> they take a class and test afterward and get it printed and get a guard card you can ask one of our inspectors for the came back on who to came back to if you do that. >> shawn. >> thank you very much. >> all right. i think you know what you'll benefit i understand you how hard it is for nonprofits but i think this is a great benefit to. >> we'll definitely. >> have trained security
