We have a very similar acting director update for this week as we had at our previous meeting. Just wanted to touch back on our summit, which is coming up quickly now. Thats going to be february 26th. I just wanted to give a big thank you to commissioner perez who has been dedicating his free time helping us put together our web site for the event, collateral and literally pulling up a chair at the office for hours at a time. Thank you so much for that. Were getting really excited about the event. The programming is its great. There are three main presentations happening. Again, well be having a presentation on security planning around catastrophic events, specifically active Shooter Training led by the sfpd Tactical Unit and well hear from the head of the department of Emergency Management and chief of police. Well have a brief discussion from the director of the newly created office of cannibis nicole elliot, who will be speaking about some of the Cross Sections between entertainment and cannibis, permitting and regulation in San Francisco as we are seeing a lot of our spaces trying to activate with cannibis at this time and shell speak to some of those limitations and allowances. Well hear from senator wieners office in regard to 4 am. It wont be him specifically but one of the senior staff and commissioner thomas is hoping to spearhead a conversation around Harm Reduction and dylan has been working closely with burning man on a presentation on Outdoor Events and creating social space. So its going to be kind of lengthy, a little different than normal. Its at the independent, well start at 12 30, programming starts at 1 00 and going through to 4 30 and a happy hour afterward. It will be a good networking experience for all of us. And we are exciting to announce we finally rolled out our web site changes and our permit applications to reflect the legislative changes we had around permitting outdoor amplification. Ill let dylan show you the web site. Things make more sense to the public now than they ever had. Thank you. If you can hear me okay. Good evening commissioners, dylan rice Senior Analyst and web master and copyrighter. I just wanted to walk you through some of the changes, these enhancements to our web site. With the objective of increasing clarity and proving some of the streamlining and really communicating the new rules and permits surrounding amplified sound and one time events. So, im just going to hit some of the key pages. Instead of having a permits application page, we switched it to get a permit page. You can either use the dropdown to get to these subpages or go to the landing page here. We wanted to organize it in the sense first we wanted people to know how were defining entertainment in the code. That determines how youre regulated essentially. And types of permits with consumer friendly descriptions, the applications and then some faqs to help people understand what the changes have been. So ill jump to the permit types. This took some time to get all of these descriptions sort of written and finalized, but we separate it into brick and mortar. And then events, and so youll see the one time Outdoor Entertainment event permit, the one most relevant to street fairs and other events outdoor with entertainment that will likely replace the old loud speaker permit for many events. Youll see the other permit for outdoor amplified sound with no permit. Sound check is still there. And the one time event permit is morphed into the one time indoor event permit. Its just a name change. You can click on the name of the permit and it takes you to the applications page. And you can apply using fillble pdf, in some cases you can use the smart pdf which is more streamlined online sort of form. We added the extra things like if people arent sure what the permit is, you can click on that and it will take you to the page. At least it should. Slow, there we go. Another thing to highlight, we consolidated the fees and pay online information into one place. Before it was buried in the permanent applications page. If you want to look at the fees, you can click on the matrix or if you want to pay, you can go to this link here and we clarified what the different fee waivers are for the onetime events. So Community Based organization or individual declaring financial hardship. And then lastly, the biggest enhancement has been finally the addition of an Outdoor Events page. Yay thats my area. So this will grow. The outdoor event guide will live on it eventually but were still trying to get that approved by all the stakeholder agencies but theres about the program statement, talking about the Economic Impact of events. And the mission of the program, then it links to some of the programs, initiatives im working on. The Outdoor Events network is here. Up coming events, were going to coincide that with the summit and then where am i im not used to this. Arrow back here. And then i took the outdoor Event Industry bulletins and archived them to look at past topics on this page as well as the most recent bulletin. And then some reports and data, so as new reports get written about Outdoor Events we can publish them on the reports page. Those are the basic enhancements, if anyone wants to look on the home page to see the latest news and look at the memo that has all of the new permits that we talk about, the first thing you click on, on the front page and its which i believe you already have. So it just talks about legislation that was passed, what the changes are and then clicks to the faqs. So those are the basic changes. If you have questions let me or maggie know. Vice president thomas any questions . Congratulations, it looks like a lot of work and its nice to see it all in one place like that. We are so excited. We think were going to receive less phone calls and emails from confused folks now. So Vice President thomas any questions before i move on to the final thing . So finally, i wanted to give one more update of our Good Neighbor policy working group did meet a second time and this time we included commissioner lee in our group. We are continuing to move changes with our Good Neighbor policies forward with really inspector burke at the helm. And next step here is myself and inspector burke are planning on meeting with our City Attorney in the next few days to go over all of the conditions within the Good Neighbor policy that were proposing to change and really drawing on specific parts of the code that we can link that back to in supporting the enforcement of those conditions in seans actual work. Do any of the members of the working group or inspector burke have anything to add . Were meeting again next week. Very exciting stuff. Ill just say thank you for your involvement and input. Its been going really well. Okay. Thats it. Vice president thomas comments . Questions . I wanted to piggy back on the summit, first, thank you maggie for the work you have done so far. I just wanted to encourage the rest of the commissioners to please help promote the event. We have a flyer ready. I will come up with a Marketing Tool kit that will have in one kind of link, youll have an event description, logo and flyer and head shots of the speakers and stuff like that, that you can copy and paste to your own Marketing Platforms and forward to other stakeholders to help us amplify the message. Thats coming up this week hopefully. And i think the thing we want to emphasize, its a new venue, its our ninth annual, so people might be tempted to go back to the library. We want to emphasize its a different place this year. Vice president thomas any other comments . Reports from the sound inspector. Inspector burke. Thank you commissioner thomas. Sean burke, inspector. Recent very confused excel user and please excuse my formatting issues in this weeks report. Hopefully ill have that cleared up by next week, next hearing. A nice long list of new complaints since last time we met. I can go into detail on any of those that you would like and im just noticing additional errors that i didnt catch in the rush to get this out to you. The main points i wanted to mention, a couple of things that didnt make it on here and i wanted to make sure i filled in the blanks for you, this is on the reverse of the page. We had one complaint since last hearing on february 3rd about hassian, no complaints about double dutch, which is a stark difference between last time we met and this hearing. One complaint from benders. Im just kind of going on the ongoing complaint list and one complaint from a neighbor of hue on january 25th and in the email string i was cced on, the operator lowered the volume and satisfied the neighbor. A couple of updates, things that didnt make it on the list. February 4th, a complaint about the grand nightclub in regard to their let out and patrons disturbing people and Early Morning street cleaning. This is something that acting director wiland and myself have talked to operators and neighbors about and are seeking solution. The chapel has undergone some sound testing since we last spoke. Im looking forward to getting a report from them. And we have a complaint about the village that has just cropped up on market. Thats something we have had some complaints about in the past. Theyre under new management and im looking forward to meeting them and going over the rules. On your list on the front of the sheet, there is a complainant claiming they turnoff the music at 2 00 and comes back on at 4 00 and plays throughout the night, quote. I will be investigating that. We have 2450 suter, three complaints since we last met and i have yet to have an opportunity to visit that location to further investigate. Happy to answer any questions you might have, especially about new complaints that i didnt go over. Vice president thomas questions commissioners . My apologies not giving you a lot of time to puruse this. On the unknown, three different nights or what . Correct. Has anybody made contact with the complainant, police or anybody. Anonymous, unknown location, i dont i havent seen anything in progress there. Unfortunately i dont have information about the complainant to go on. Thanks. Vice president thomas that is hard to track down. Carmen lounge, i know they have ipod, is it a janitor cleaning how do you contact, theyre not really on our perview if you dont have a permit, right . This is something that has come up in the past. Maintenance crews, cleanup folks after a bar closing generally how we handle it, ill reach out to the operator and stop by and double check to make sure they know what is going on after they close the doors to the public. Thats something i have yet to do in this case. And well get on that asap. Vice president thomas and despite not having a permit, they did at one point. Were in communication to ensure they do not have entertainment. Commissioner lee so places that dont have a permit for those people out watching is as a courtesy, you follow up, but how do you, you know, if they dont have a permit under our jurisdiction, who is going to handle that, usually the police handle it depends. If its a place that doesnt have a permit because theyre operating in a legal operation, its always reallocated or deferred to the Police Department. Depending on however we receive it, we can reallocate within 311 or directly forward a complaint if its received via email or phone. If its a place that is a restaurant or bar or what have you, that is a legitimate operation in other ways, theyre having entertainment, sean always communicates with that premise about the rules of obtaining a permit and usually bring them into compliance and you usually meet them here. Commissioner lee but if theyre just playing the ipod blasting it and no entertainment and they continue doing that, in our jurisdiction, we keep going out there or we dont . We will work with sfpd to address it. Generally speaking especially in this case, an operator like this with a permit revoked, its in his best interest, his or her best interest to be on the right side of this and be in compliance with a neighbor desire because i think they would be seeking a reissue of a permit in the future. Very rarely do we come across a situation with a complaint by a neighbor and the operator is unwilling to work with us. If we do get resistance, thats when we involve the police and basically say this is under your purview, i happen to be out while these places are in operation and sometimes have more free time or most of my work doesnt pertain to life safety. If you have a hard time putting eyes on this thing, we can Work Together and come up with evidence, video, whatever we need to address it to get it to stop. Commissioner lee so the future i think we know which has a permit. If you want a note, you can say unpermitted and yes. Commissioner lee so its on record anyway. Thats something i look forward to putting on my list on suggestion of commissioner bleiman but havent had a chance to. Vice president thomas any other questions, comments . All right. We will move on to the next agenda item. Police department [indiscernible] any comments from our police . Nope. So then moving on to item six. Hearing and possible application regarding the consent application. All of our permit applications are on the consent calendar this evening, all limited Live Performance applications. None of them had neighbor complaints, and they all passed through both Police Department and Planning Department with no issues. Just to give a little background, theres two breweries on here and one is a place called the magic patio in the mission. So you can take a look in your materials and if you have specific questions, you can ask me and the owners are all here if you want to pull anything off of consent on to regular. Vice president thomas commissioner perez. Commissioner perez two of the applicants have Community Outreach kind of in progress. Is there a way to know if theyre completed or not i have spoken with all three owners and operators and i know for a fact that they all conducted neighborhood outreach. And didnt receive any negative feedback. Magic patio did a mailer to their neighbors. And Barebottle Brewing Company hosted an event and had all their neighbors invited and apparently 20 neighbors came and they all got a free pint of beer and were able to hear about fun plans for entertainment. And then San FranciscoBrewing Company, thats in the square, Fairmont Hotel has longer term rentals i believe that are right there. Youll see in the packet theres a letter of support from the group. So, yeah, not concerned. I think they all did it. Commissioner perez thank you. Vice president thomas any other comments . Commissioner lee just on the one in the garedelhi. Theyll have music outside until 8 00. Yes, this is a guinea pig here. This was approved by police and Fire Department planning. You could set specific conditions in terms of outdoor if you like. Commissioner lee is the applicant here. We need to vote to pull it off consent if we want to hear from them. Commissioner lee yeah, i in order to talk about it we have to pull it off consent. Commissioner lee pull it off for a couple of questions. Vice president thomas im hearing a motion to remove this item from the consent calendar. Is there a second . Ill second. Vice president thomas can we just do a voice vote . Everyone in support say aye. Okay. There we go. All right, so we have pulled the San FranciscoBrewing Company item off of the Consent Agenda. Well discuss that separately. Is there a motion to approve the rest of the Consent Agenda . Commissioner perez i would like to make a motion to approve it. Vice president thomas okay. voting Vice President thomas thank you. Those items are approved and now lets have the conversation about the San FranciscoBrewing Company. Sorry josh, come on up. How you guys doing . Vice president thomas thank you for being here. By the way, its beer week, this a big deal that hes here. Vice president thomas thank you. Commissioner lee just real quick, since its outdoor and its good facing the water, theres a lot of sensitive marina people behind on bay street behind so sometimes music will travel. What do you plan to have in the patio . Really just local artists with acoustic guitars and one amplifier they bring. No kind of stage s
