There is an oath. Please stand and raise your right hand. Do you and each of you solemnly state that the testimony you may give in the cause now and pending before this body shall be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God. Brett Jaquez and Emily Armstrong from Financial Management will be presenting the staff report. Good evening, honorable mayor and members of the city council. Tonight you have before you an amendment to the conditions of the entertainment without dancing permit issued to relevant ink doing business as marina wine located at 194 Marina Drive, Suite 101, operating as a restaurant with alcohol in Council District three. At its meeting on October 15, 2019. The City Council granted an entertainment without dancing permit subject to approved permit conditions. The permit conditions approved on October 15th require that all doors and windows must remain closed during the hours of entertainment at the establishment. Furthermore, all authorized entertainment activities must be restricted from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Mondays through Thursdays, 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays. After approval of the entertainment permit, it was discovered that the conditions were not approved as intended in the entertainment permit. As a result, staff recommends amending the permit with the conditions as contained in the hearing packet. I, as well as the police department, stand ready to answer any questions Council may have. And that concludes staff's report. Finds anybody coming inside. Who? Mr. Good, you know. Councilman Price Thank you. Vice Mayor So I want to thank staff for bringing this item back because as it was approved last time was not what I had intended. So I appreciate you bringing it back and I appreciate the call out for the two additional conditions, specifically the amendments in condition one and the amendments and conditions six . I want to confirm that the the entertainment permit is with no dancing. Correct. That is correct. So the expectation would be that there would not be any dancing on the premises or within close proximity to the premises as a result of this business. Yes, there. Is no dancing allowed. And then also, I want to confirm that alcohol cannot be carried into the courtyard or other areas of Alamitos Bay Center pursuant to the conditions of this permit. Is that correct? So the conditions of the entertainment permit rely on their ABC conditions that's related to their alcohol license. So those ABC conditions trump the entertainment permit. Okay, great. And then one other thing that I have. It's not a condition, really, but I want to just share that. I have talked with the business owner who is here today, and I want to thank him for being here. And I want to thank him for being engaged and for being, you know, a tremendous partner thus far. I have no doubt this is going to be a very smooth transition with this permit. But one of the things we talked about is I know that he's going to be updating his speaker system so that it is more conducive to this particular area in terms of where the sound is amplified. And I know that he expects to do that within the next three months or so. So although it's not a condition, I know that this entertainment permit is going to come back in about a year, I believe, for us to review or not come back , but it will be evaluated by staff in a year. And so I want us to be mindful of of that as being one of the. Agreements that the business owner has made in regards to working collaboratively and in partnership with the surrounding businesses. So with that, I'd ask my colleagues to support granting this permit as amended. And I wish our business owner the best of luck and marina wine. So everyone please go out and visit them and help them help support the business so that they continue to grow. Fine, Councilwoman Parrish. Oh, and thank you. Could you please cast your vote or. Motion carries. When you move to a. And in 20. Item 20 Communication from Councilmember Richardson, Councilmember Pearce, Councilmember Urunga. I believe that some of the time certain. For. You and going to public comment there. Okay with that, we're move to public comment then we have a. Eight individuals have to speak with inside with the first three in this room. Could you please come up to the podium when I call your name?
