Commission sets Nov. 9 hearing and 30-day signpost for disputed 620 Jones application
Summary
The commission continued the Jones Street place-of-entertainment application to Nov. 9 and directed staff to post a 30-day sign at the site after hearing public protest concerns; motion passed by roll call.
The Entertainment Commission granted a continuance for the application at 620 Jones Street after staff recommended postponing the matter to allow additional outreach and public notice.
Commissioner Allen moved that the commission continue the Jones application until its regularly scheduled November 9 hearing and require site signposting for 30 calendar days before that hearing; the motion, seconded, passed in a roll-call vote (Commissioners Vitale, Perez, Allen and Nuland recorded Aye). Public commenter Robert Garcia urged protest organizers to maintain protests through the continuance so neighbors remain heard.
Staff told the commission the police had requested a continuance as well but had not specified a return date; staff recommended a fixed return date to avoid the application being deemed approved under the timelines in police-code procedures. The commission instructed staff to post notice and return the item on November 9.
