recently we were invited to see the brickyard. it is clear to me if the three doors were open and there are 30 or 40 enthusiastic people at the bar, there will be plenty of noise. they say we can call and they will address this issue. i doubt they want to be known as wet blankets, always telling their customers to be quiet. i do not think it is a role of the neighbors to call and complain. i do not want to be a wet blanket either. one of you said it was generational. let me introduce a little jewels. he is 17 days old, and his parents agree they do not want to have open bars with a patio. we are not opposing the business, just navarre's. business, just navarre's. -- just the ba

i also live across the street from the brickyard. we are here to request this board rescinded the permit for a second store deck with adjoining open doors. although this board requested that the applicant themselves investigate the noise impact caused by their project and work with us to find technical solutions to meet our reasonable concerns, that unfortunately did not happen. instead, they came up with a custom some report, in our opinion, taken in a very minute amount of time to support their position that there is no problem. the first time we were provided any information, even though we contacted them right after the appeal hearing and also at the union street association meeting, was when they filed their brief to this board on july 28. after they filed that brief, they've been contacted us and said come on over and meet with our sound expert. that was the night before our response brief was due to be filed. in that brief, they said there was no problem, which they have just said, and that no mitigation was possible or legall

i represent a condominium one block from the brickyard. it seems ironic earlier you had a hearing that a noisy bar could solve its problem by closing its doors, and here you have a relatively quiet arbar. the word patio strikes me as odd, because it is really a deck, and access is really through french doors, and every time the door opens or closes, that is when the noise is going to come through. the neighborhood has been very amicable working with the brickyard, and we are happy it is such a thriving establishment. it strikes me on debt in an earlier report they are going to close the doors at -- strikes me as odd in an earlier report they are going to close the door at 7:00. doug -- the door at 10:00. i think this is the situation where status quo is appropriate. >> next speaker. >> carry morrison. i have lived here for 35 years. i would like to thank members of the sport. clearly, you heard the community. -- members of the board. clearly, you have heard the community. here we are with the brickyard saying we have done nothing wrong. th

here we are with the brickyard saying we have done nothing wrong. that is untrue. they were instructed by you to find solutions, and they did not. instead of working with neighbors to find solutions, they notified us of what they intended not to do. like it was so innocence when they thumb their nose at a loss of san francisco and illegally ripped off the facades of their art to broadcast -- of the bar to broadcast at the community. where are the penalties and and and and and and and now the brickyard checkbook has paid for lawyers, expediters, and now sound engineers. the brickyard is using hired guns, and if you examine the priests and permit submitted, they are gaining the system. all this at the expense of neighbors, savings, and precious time. we are trying to protect our school and our homes from the kind of bad taste they demonstrated from the very beginning. in this country, we have laws that need to be followed to make it a pleasant place to live. they need to keep the noise off the street. they need to rebuild the sun room. thank you. >> next speaker plea

. >> i am the operating manager of the brickyard. during our last hearing, we hired an acoustical engineer to conduct additional sound analysis and identify changes of reduced noise. we retained a local acoustical engineering firm that has worked on numerous city projects, including the young museum. on friday, july 8, the current principal conducted sound readings at the brickyard. they confirmed the findings of the previous entertainment commission reports that the proposed use of the patio conforms to the noise ordinance. mr. salter also shed light on two points mentioned by appellants at the last meeting. specifically, sound readings taken from street level are accurate, because the city of san francisco considers the property line to be a plane extending into space. was levels at the second and third stories would be the same as those measured at street level. the brickyard interior does not act like a trumpet projecting sound out of the front doors. architectural features of the venue, such as sound absorbing wall and ceiling p

the third item has to do with 1727 union street, the brickyard restaurant. the board heard that appeal on june 22, and continued to allow the petition holder to me with neighbors and address of noise concerns. the permit holder did not meet with neighbors and did not submit alternatives and until august 3. the board addressed that with them, that they did not meet with them in a timely fashion. they voted to continue the item until september 21 to allow more time to meet with neighbors. that is it for my report. >> just for the record, commissioners, the board is on break. the historic preservation commission did not meet this week. commissioners, we can move to general public comment. at this time, members of the public may address you on items of interest to the public within the subject matter jurisdiction of this commission, with the exception of agenda items which may only be addressed during their time on the calendar and not during this category. each member of the public may address the commission for up to 3 minutes. i have no speaker cards. preside

. >> my office is across the street from the brickyard. againsi spoke before on how lout is, and i also heard some reports, and i want to say even their own measurements show that the noise level was high, and a dining experience for 10 people should not equal our discomfort. nobody is complaining about others. they are not our neighbors. if their neighbors wanted to complain, that is fine, but i know they went through proper channels to get what is required to achieve outside seating. we are also part of the community, and they do not feel suppose should benefit from that. i think it is really nice that they want to share what is going on inside their car, but we would like to politely -- inside the bar, but we would like to politely decline having to listen to it. there is a photo from this past saturday, and that was very loud. thank you. >> next speaker please. >> my name is jim connolly. i animal home owner and live on green street -- i am a home owner and live on greene street. this is my second appearance on this particular issue. o
