Approve conditionally and so have the applicant do one meeting. On that motion. Commissioner lee. Commissioner joseph. Commissioner hyde so lets move into our next permit hotel permit. Their requesting a hotel permit downtown off union square for wedding and celebrations Corporate Events and Central Station supports this event with conditions. Thank you. Speak into the one on our right can i plug this in to the microphone . While michael is setting up my friends at the hotel asked me to assist in the outreach process and we did the outreach in the packet. We reached out to the Polk Association and lines for district of the union square b. I. D. And north of market and the Police Department and observes and we got requests and alliance for the presentation on the 6th was made. The b. I. D. Called me and said they required no presentation great, thank you. I finally, figured out the sound drive. So as mentioned those were an existing exemplify the hotel and were applying to the entertainment we can have live music at the hotel for wedding and private Fire Departments and on the weekend and so on. We did the necessary paperwork and i make sure it was correctly filed in and it was for october. Those were there meeting rooms were small. I will show you 3 meeting to give you an idea of what were looking at. This is not changing the use but to have will music. The hotel went through a 7 million rams and were trying to get more guest and have to control any noise or 10u7bd issues it would upset our aprons so that would be detrimental to our own business. I have some photos to show you real quick. This is the exterior from the building its from 18929 believe. . One of our smaller building on the 16th floor this is from the exterior of the will building and this is our event space on the 16 floor this is the 3 meeting were considering. I worked with david and partnered with him and making sure we reached out to the local entity and ive got letters from the nearby hotel the cliff hotel from across the street and another hotel in the same block and the California Hotel thats on the other side of the 16th and jones a local market across the street and also the apartment that are the closest to us across the parking lot. And approve from everybody and the support. So with david reaching out i at the end obtain november 12th for an alliance allocates 230 eddy and went to this melting and had no negative comments from them. As i mentioned earlier its not to create a club scene that would take away from our atmosphere thank you. I had the one question whats the capacity of those rooms they dont look big. We can put 70 to 80 people per event. Sow how do you prompt the space to be rent. The person in my Sales Department her job is to reach out for wedding and anniversary parties and private events and daylight event shell be promoting the space. Commissioners joseph. Ive actually par take of our bar. I mean this was a couple of after newer event like at the cliff and whatever and people would like go off to the bar its reacting and nice. Youve never had a dj in. Bar every ive been there a month and never. Where were you before. I used to run the b w. Commissioner lee. Theres no permit; right . I didnt see any speakers we have all the permits to play the background music. Thats all . Youre letting the client bring in their own. Yeah. They bring their own equipment and so who is doing the sound you have a certain vendor you use all the time. Yeah. We go to the Marriott Hotels theyre a big company they have power point presentations and microphone systems. Basically the client has to use them correct. Thats traditional we are not set up for that we dont have our microphone system. How do you had a sound check when theres no sound. Thats a good question. Thats something we can discuss thats part of the permit you have to have a sound system to check. Id like to make a comment pr im familiar with what mr. Pass is talking about. It really is in speakers and small speaker systems and i would imagine that anything they put in there for a wedding would be below any of our sound ordinance im familiar with the company that they would use. Its really low profile flat speakers im pretty much youre not going to disturb the other aprons. Theres no sound system so other than what you have in our walls i think its typical the sound like system is certain volume and usually background music and you have another company put it in. In the lobby didnt a publish system used to be there that spates used to be an evenly closed one. So its a pretty enclosed one with no access into the lobby okay weve heard enough for now were going to bring up police if they want. Hello steve arrest the only thing weve asked for and ive spoken to mr. Pace during the visit there is basically as well as adhering to the entertainment Good Neighbor policy that the staff needs to be trained and theyre actually tips trained which is very, very similar pretty much interchangeable. So Central Station be notified of the event. Its more during a new years eve parties or st. Pacific day party thank you. Any questions for the officer. No. Okay thanks. We are going to go ahead and start taking Public Comment i have one speaker card. Then whoever just great theres another comment. Hi, im jerald banks. I got a chance and i got to meet the manager of the alliance 6 he gave a great presentation and i know it would be great he did reach out on gary street down towards market where i live. So i would ask you to give him his Entertainment Permit thank you. Next up kevin carol. Good evening. Im the executive director of the Hotel Council its nice to be here again. The hotel is a member of our organization. You can see by the presentation that michael made hes someone that works with the community. Michael has that hotel is assisting the committee and theyve hosted other events recognizing our employees in the hotel industry. We recently finished an Impact Report and 70 percent of our employees live and work in the city. And the hotels support the economy there that as well. Michael serves on the hotel and Foundation Board that raises money for hospitalized pistol and a sclarpdz michael is the president and hes about that a leader. As michael mentioned the Hospitality Industry is a industry that looked at gaps around us the hotels have careful because of the guest xrerps and you can post on hotel. Com any type of noise and they did. And michael and the hotel has done a good job and i encourage you to move this permit any Public Comment on this item . All right. Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Commissioners happy to take a motion i move to approve with police companies. Second. Great any further discussion .

Yep so our last couple of agenda item commissioners, comments or questions commissioner hyde. So i just wanted to say that today audrey and i did our followup at club malibu and theyre definitely working on things and well see results with that. I think were aisle problems and mr. Dick is really good for them and it will be much better. Saturday night because weve been depreciating complaints from neighborhood from 1015 over the halloween that weekend i went by at the 11, 12 and 2 and watched how they dispersed the crowd. They do a really good job and the problems were purely halloween. I just wanted to say i did that on saturday night. And i think a thats it. Great commissioner joseph. Processed for submissions for the main stage pride is now open. You know a great local band or someone that might want to submit and possibly be chosen to perform at the San Francisco provide the date is sunday, saturday june 28th and sunday june 29th. Great any other comments or questions from commissioners yeah. I wanted to make sure that all people get the outreach guidelines. I understand its new so i wanted to make sure. Great any other commissioner comments or questions. If not we can take Public Comment. Seeing none, wool move to our final item for future calendar or agenda items i want to staff to contact commissioner chius to present exactly what this legislation which is ultimately a moratorium and in north beach so we understand it since it effects the venues that we regulate. Ill to second that its open my list good. Go ahead commissioners and the first tuesday in january, i want to have a small discussion on 10 b here. I dont want i think id like staff to help me focus this so its not just a complaint. I talked to supervisor weiner today and theyre Going Forward with looking at outdoor permits and stuff like that. They want to have a discussion we dont have to take action. As long as youre open to having a discussion between us first and talk about the implications of anothers program the 10 b assignment to understand it. Its something that the sfpd is in charge of. Well move from there to talk about performance i get what youre saying so long as we can have an open dialog and have the Police Department speak to us because wed be speaking to ourselves id like the Police Department to be here. You cant can you ask you what about the 10 b program do you want to focus on new. Justice some of the issues that have been brought up they feel they dont have a voice on and i dont think beyond the scope 4i6 it would be good to have a discussion. What dont they have a voice on in relation to 10 b for permits. Do we ever put a condition on our permits no but the local captain does. The captain makes the recommendations. So either captain or commanders whatever but we never put it on the condition of the permits so thats. Those are people were permitting that are being affected in various ways and i think its important that we take their concerns serial especially, when they take the time and three or four organized contact me and say theyre having a difficulty and want to be heard we have a responsibility as well. I here you but im kurts whats the difficulty. I want them to say it. I think i dont want to get into the discussion here its not an agenda decided item why cant we have them come and explain the procure. A lot of people dont know what 10 b is what the normal question and practice is i have a question i mean it seems to me similar going to the Fire Department and saying we have an issue with. The fire marilyn. Yeah the fire marshall were not going to change the rules. Im not asking for it to be an action item. Oh. We owe the people to be heard. Were responsible to hear them so i think commissioner lees suggestion is pretty good we can ask the Police Department to come and talk to us maybe commissioner hyde may say heres the presentation heros our issues. Could we try to get them to come and explain to us id like to say the supervisor avalos is interested in having us talk about this. Its something ive wanted to discuss like in a year and a half. Maybe its a good idea. So this is new business for the future. First of january. laughter . Just another note well be scalding the december 16th meeting so note that commissioners. Any new items on the agenda . All right. Any Public Comment seeing none. That wraps up our meeting. Thank you our your our meeting is now adjourned. Happy i have 2 job titles. Im manager of the tour program as well as i am the historyian of city hall. This building is multifaceted to say the very least its a Municipal Building that operates the city and county of San Francisco. This building was a dream that became a reality of a man by the name of james junior elected mayor of San Francisco in 1912. He didnt have a city hall because it was destroyed in the earth wake of 1906. Construction began in april of 1913. In december 1915, the building was complete. It opened its doors in january 1916. Its a wonderful experience to come to a building built like this. The building is built as a palace. Not for a king or queen. Its built for all people. This building is beautiful art. Those are architecture at the time when city hall was built, San Francisco had an enormous french population. Therefore building a palace in the art tradition is not unusual. Jimmie was an incredible individual he knew that San Francisco had to regain its place in the world. He decided to have the tallest dome built in the United States. Its now stands 307 feet 6 inches from the ground 40 feet taller than the United States capital. You could spend days going around the building and finding something new. The embellishment, the carvings, it represents commerce, navigation, all of the things that San Francisco is famous for. The wood you see in the board of supervisors chambers is oak and all hand carved on site. Interesting thing about the oak is there isnt anymore in the entire world. The floors in china was cleard and never replanted. If you look up at the seceiling you would believe thats hand kof carved out of wood and it is a cast plaster sealing and the only spanish design in an arts building. There are no records about how many people worked on this building. The workman who worked on this building did not all speak the same language. And what happened was the person working next to the other person respected a skill a skill that was so wonderful that we have this masterpiece to show the world today. Good morning, today is wednesday, november 20, 2013, this is the regular meeting of the building inspection commission, i would like to remind everyone for please turn off all electronic devices.
