In any case keep in mind in our asking how to move forward in terms of hearing. Could you is the la what you said around 2 hundred. A little bit less than that. Close you yes, but up there so ive had a number of meetings regarding two upcoming one is september 5th and september 25th the september 25th is really the issue of my biggest concern thats the mc d. C. Concert a number of meeting with the port with city attorney, with supervisor cowens office as well as and the last meeting was at the port included the giant the applicants were on track for the 21st of july hearing on those two permits we are working together as a city family i guess is the word in terms of how to message Going Forward to the public as we head towards the 1ru67b8 hearing and conditions how were going to do our best if in a situation hard to manage. I have a question in our meeting especially with the port did you guys discuss some mitigation that the promoter i know the applicant is the giants but theres a promoter involved on another planet i dont know if we were there are they going to do mitigation on the sound. So again i i mean, thats what the hearing is for on the permit and conditions theres discussions we had about mitigation that is the place to have it obviously thats the basis of the communication but more than that our discussions were around whos authority and what layers are on top of layers youve described it a promoter the giants, the lrld the port and us as is mou on behalf of the port everyone to understand what has the authority to do what and what tools in the toolbox i come to you. If we put mitigating conditions on them i mean and they dont comply and the rig is set up r up and the concert is going we have the authority to do what . Nothing we have a concern amount of Enforcement Capacity but again in two weeks this is in front of you in more a detail than youll ever want and okay. I look forward to that. Excellent anticipate and ac dc. Great. A quick operational detail what time is the concert from and to. I dont have the application it is typically 8 to 11 or something it didnt go much later the duration. Sure. Its at issue. Thats where it might be earlier the sound like check on the permit that happens the day before for that concert but two permit applications in front of with detail from the Commission Requests the promoter be present i can ask that as well i dont know if i can require Something Like that but ask. Im asking that and your asking and the promoter be present. Okay. Okay with a complete description of their sound like system and how theyll hang it they can talk about that. Ill do my best. This is a sound issue. Absolutely. So the promoter needs to be present the giants are not ordering the sound system but the promoter. Whos performing on the fifth. Billy joel. Nonnobody seems concerned about the piano. A loud c note boom; right . Laura. I dont know okay. Then he put own here an update on the transit work and asked ben how ton to come up and will be in the next few years so just to surmising summarize to make my life easier.

Yeah. Ill start good evening, commissioners several items to report starting with 1015 fulsome we received a complaint if a signed complainant no incident but an ongoing issue surrounding the neighborhood and the neighbors getting tired what i preserve the venue is doing Everything Possible to indicting cut down on the nuisance with the particular residence which is located on the corner of columbia scare and fulsome street it is outside of hundred feet so the 1015 fulsome cant extend their security bars the answer to get a private Security Patrol or Something Like that i mentioned that to the neighbor and ask them to contact their landlord and maybe get the ball roping e rolling on that end ill talk to the venue i can promise anything well see hopefully, they get a private control theres a lot of entertainment to cut down on the complaints and the issues moving on the cosmo bar lodge on broadway they had an event that ended up having a couple of fights the fight were dispercent before the police got there i talked with management they had a rapper from la and following they add no to have events like that i explained everything this is going on the particular management was not on broadway for the last place i explained everything on broadway that how if you have shows like that and end up with the problems the venue is not going to probably be open for long they agreed not to have any more of those types of events in the future a couple of compliance items i stopped by a bar to make sure the restaurants has a poster up for limited Live Performance permits and make sure theyre posted city club remember last hearing i mentioned an issue that had with a noise complainant and basically talked about with the management and the complained and solved the problem well see i gave the complainant my phone number they can call me over the weekend when im out doing inspections pie did a sound check for the loophole will that and everything went fine with that, i mean no real neighbors displaced theyre having Live Performance downstairs and it is ambient communistic e music and wrote a citation to the scare bar and kitchen not supposed to have Action Committee for women in prison if i had music they have amplified rag band i wrote them a citation and talked about with the management and basically told them im going to write you a citation i dont have to have you come in front of felt commission because they make those permit conditions i think we have an agreement hell talk with his neighbor and get a hotel some kind of work to think about doing Something Like that but nevertheless i told him to basically, not do that if i have to write him a citation thats about it. When you say 1015 a nuisance. The neighbors say claiming or the patrons walking down the street using the building as a urinal and that sort of nuisance. Thats quite often kind of thing. She says basically often but it is down the street is it so the buildings next door but hundred and 50 feet away and then they have issues down the alley up that that harriet. Harriet. They send a lot of security guards that way and i mean it is a challenge for them. One other question city club is upstairs did the venue is it an office building. Im not sure about the vera sit but it is a lot of noise from the private events im not sure i have not preserved the issue thats why i communicated with the complainant thats what i community to the complainant i havent heard it if you have issues call me. Im curious about the source. Right of right i have no client they said they dont know why theyre getting complaints and the complainants said it was noise doesnt specific source. The city club is on the tenth floor of the building it is mostly Office Spaces is there any residential in that area. There must be. A complaint from another office is it coming from a resident. From a resident all i know whatever but it is coming from a resident. Any club is primarily a restaurant pretty much and they do do parties but i mean, i think this is so weird. Right thats why ultimately i told the complaint if you have issues call me while their happening to you, see you know sometimes the complainants are solid and they really have teeth and sometimes you know go to a call and you know maybe the complaint is about something else. One last question as far as two last questions well 1015 theyre good at expanding their thing beyond hundred feet can you ask the security guards to walk around further. I talked with the security they said theyre talking with the neighbors but it seems like nothing they can do solves the problems for the neighbors ive been by there in the last two months friday and saturday nights or whatever. So last question in your opinion is cosmo is a problem. I dont think theyll become a problem. Okay. You but well see theyre owners hes been around so i dont think theyll be an issue. Great thank you. All right. Good evening, commissioners couple of compliems over the last few weeks from the owner on 24th street and Latino American club both places the complainants were patrons outside the bar and paid visits to those bars and the owners over the phone to make sure theyre aware of whats going on do expect it to be a continuing issue only one night that got a little bit busy please physique a typo it should say the change of ownership i went by both days and was unable to hear anything beyond the 2 hundred and 50 feet per city code and under the citations headings youll recognize a few of the names i wrote citations to the west bay one malibu and all those citations were after a direct communication with the complainants and we have an appeal hearing coming up from citation issued about a month ago club malibu west Bay Conference Center had been doing from what ive heard from neighborhoods pretty much for a while and new season that start up some in touch with the complainants and as far as the macys goes ive been in touch with the ownership and plan how to plan to update Windows Update exits, sound curtains and im hoping with some additional work with them well be obligate good to go shortly commissioner joseph. Ass macys did they give you a timeline. A timeline we have been xhufrn with about has been extended a few times so this is the most flushed out plan theyve 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. Im 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 theres also. In front of the commission for why for reconditioning their permit. Theres things we can do in phenomena of superstition or administratively too. Thats 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 bring in sound systems only the system prosecute purchased by the center there are things that can be done not being done im 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 ive had explanation with the complainants has been outside of the sound like systems. Okay. Or a night they dont 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. Okay. Great commissioner lee. So i was there i thought you were invited to the party a tell had this meter the guy is stressed out but all you have to do is tell the sound like guys to turn it down he said the guys in the back cant hear you have to communicate if urge do bring outdoor sound you dont have to krang it up but whats the outdoor level Small Business he was outdoor when i left he was measuring he didnt know the outside the outside noise level he can go. Theres been quite a few of the conversations i missed the outside decimal level is not in 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 dont know. Well, you know my interpretation is that he has difficulty putting a foot down when net sometimes ive seen
