i'm currently assigned to the abc liaison unit. the san francisco police department is in opposition of this conditional use change because there is community opposition to it. the business has, in the past operated in violation of their current entertainment permit and engaged in entertainment in the space that they are proposing a change. the venue originated as a restaurant and is currently licensed by the a.b.c. as a restaurant and what we are finding is a lot of these businesses start out as restaurants and then they morph into something more like a club. there is an abundance of signage on the building itself that pertains to entertainment, alcohol available, as well as menu items at the premise. the signage promotes blight in the neighborhood and it is just unsightly. the current use is reasonable and prudent. the police department strongly opposes the expansion of the permit at this venue and lastly, if you plan on approving this item we would ask that it be continued to allow the police department to bring forward more inf
