Business Investments LLC doing business as the station at 4115 Viking way in District five. All the necessary departments have reviewed the application. The application and proposed conditions are contained in the packet provided and we are prepared to address any questions or concerns along with the police department. Thank you. Sir. Any any council discussion? I know any member of the public wish to address the Council on item number three. Please come forward when you see the light. You've got 30 seconds left. Please identify yourself. Jean Rotondo. Living at 7488 El Paseo in the district of which the establishment is located. I am the consultant for the establishment. Seeking a entertainment license. I was called in or about three months ago to help save the institution. Previously known as Sara Bellows is on the verge of failure. So we implemented a few things in there and we've reestablished and reached out to the community. Getting back to the things that it did, made it successful way back when it did have an entertainment license. But the people who were operating it, they really weren't up to date on what was going on. So that's why we're here today. We have no issue with any of the conditions on the entertainment license except to request a modification on the time of the entertainment. One of the things that's a little difficult is the entertainment. It's a sports bar restaurant, and a lot of the sporting events don't finish up until nine, 10:00. So the entertainment, consequently the difficult to get it started until that time. In general, you have to engage these people for about 3 hours. So I'd request, if we could, to have the entertainment finish about 15 minutes to closing on the day. So we have entertainment. The entertainment is essentially comedy and country and blues and what they call cover music. And we don't have any hip hop in there or any of that type. We need to be competitive with the establishments right across the border over there. Lakewood and a lot of the business that we get later in the evening is from the service industry. And unlike regular people who go to work, finish up five or 6:00, get cleaned up, go out, have some entertainment, eat whatever the people who serve you really don't finish up until ten, 11:00. So we like to be able to service the people who service us. We want to be competitive. We've created since we took the management position in there, we've created about a 15 to 20 more jobs there. So we'd like your support to make that adjustment. There is also a thing that says that we can't serve anybody under 21 after 10:00. And part of the problem is because you have sporting events, sometimes they don't finish. I like to be modified so that we as long as we're serving food there, that families can be there with their their family. So thank you. Thank you, Mr. O'Donnell. CUSTOMER Maciejewski Could staff respond on the request of the applicant? Councilmember in conferring with the police department. That's an acceptable change. I think he mentioned a couple of things. One was the hours of the entertainment and the other thing without being able to served anyone under 21. Obviously they can't serve alcohol, but it is a food establishment. And is that our requirement or is that an ABC requirement? We're checking. Please hold on 1/2. Sorry, sir. We might need to confer with the applicant. Their original application where we granted all the hours as requested, minus Sunday. So to change it, to serve their condition, additional conditions of operation to serve 21 have 21 year olds in the establishment after 10 p.m., as long as they not serving alcohol acceptable to the police department, as long as their serving food is acceptable. And the hours we would need to confirm with the applicant as their original request was granted what the changes requested. Mr. Mayor. Do we have him respond on that? Mr. SWAN. Yeah, please. We get this worked out tonight. Thank you. It's not really a problem, but it's divided into two places. So there really is what I would call the grown up side, and then you have the family side. So on the family side, we're serving food. You have little leagues. And I think that's all. I. Think that's done is they've they've agreed to the change. Okay. Now, what about the entertainment? The entertainment? The issue is it's not going to start until nine or 10:00. And we closed during the week at 12:00. So if we can have the entertainment wrap up at 15 minutes to 1145. Yeah. Does that work for you guys over there? That's acceptable. Thank you very much. Thank you. Yeah, I make a motion to receive the supporting documentation to the record, conclude the hearing and grant entertainment permit with conditions on the application, including those modifications we just discussed. Thank you. Okay. Moving. Seconded. So the amendments are to serve food to those under 10:21 o'clock as long it's only food and you can go to 1145. All right. Correct. Well, 15 minutes to close, because on the weekends, we're. Sorry, 15 minutes prior, close proportionately. All right. Any any comment by councilmember senior members cast your votes in hearing item number three. Motion carries seven zero. Thank you, members for not going to go to public comment. We have one member of the public tonight to address us and that's Dennis Dunne. The drill. Look, the other way means you got 30 seconds.
