Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct.
2. Based upon substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-
referenced public hearing on October 8, November 12, and December 10, 1997, including written
and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as
follows:
a. The application applies to property located at 8411 Foothill Boulevard with a street
frontage of 545.21 feet and lot depth of 150 feet and is presently improved with several buildings and
structures.
b. The property to the north contains a restaurant, the properties to the south contain
an abandoned railroad track, single family homes, and townhouses, and the property to the west is
vacant but planned for a mixed use development consisting of retail, office, and mini-storage.

f. On March 18, 1997, the applicant submitted a request to add dancing and expand
the entertainment to nightly between 9 p.m. and 1 a.m. He submitted a related Conditional Use
Permit application to expand the bar use for serving alcohol within the outdoor patio area.
g. Adjacent residents on the south side of the site have submitted letters objecting to
expansion of the Entertainment Permit because of possible nuisance problems of loud music, loud
noise, loitering, and other related disturbances.
h. The Commission felt that it is essential for the applicant to complete the control
measures required in February 1996 and commence entertainment for a period of time to ensure that
the control measures are successful in mitigating the nuisance problem before considering an
expansion of the entertainment.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-
referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2
above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows:
a. The Conduct of the establishment and the granting of the application would be
contrary to the public health, safety, morals, or welfare.
b. The granting of the application would create a public nuisance.
c. The normal operation of the premises would interfere with the normal peace and
quiet of any surrounding residential neighborhood.
4. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above,
this Commission hereby denies the application without prejudice.
5. The Secretary to this Commission shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.
APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 10TH DAY OF DECEMBER 1996.
