Entertainment Commission approves two new POE permits; enforcement report cites repeat sound violations
Summary
The commission heard enforcement updates including a citation for Hotel Via after readings showed sound 10 dB over its limit, received JAM-permit application statistics, and unanimously approved place-of-entertainment permits for a karaoke operator at 1660 Gary and a cultural venue at 2512 Mission.
The San Francisco Entertainment Commission on Nov. 17 approved two place-of-entertainment permits and heard staff reports on enforcement and the city’s JAM permit rollout.
Executive Director Weiland reported on the Just Add Music (JAM) permit program and said the office had received 143 JAM applications since launching Sept. 25, issued 85 approvals, found 18 applications ineligible and had about 40 still in review. "So it's been nearly 2 months. We have sent out 85 approvals for jam permits," Weiland said, and staff described recent outreach and application-streamlining work intended to reduce duplicate uploads and clarify eligibility requirements.
