Residents press council over Hamilton Brewery noise and parking; city staff pledge meetings, painted curbs and signage
Summary
Several Rancho Cucamonga residents used the public comment period to report noise, late hours, intoxicated patrons and parking impacts attributed to Hamilton Brewery; city staff said they will meet with neighbors and the business, order red‑curb painting within two weeks and evaluate additional signage and enforcement options.
Multiple residents told the council March 4 that activity tied to Hamilton Brewery is causing persistent noise, unsafe driving and parking problems in adjacent neighborhoods.
Liz Acuna said she had discussed the issue with the school district and described emergency‑response concerns when fire apparatus and other large vehicles must negotiate narrow streets. Anna Gonzales said her family had videotaped confrontations, contested parking and patrons who she said behaved disrespectfully. LeBae Bland and other neighbors described repeated late‑night horns, drinking in cars, vehicles parked in senior‑apartment guest spaces, and children being awakened at night.
"We're out there protesting and he still does this over and over and over," one resident said, describing what she called a pattern of late‑night disruption.
City Manager Alyssa Cox told the council staff is finishing a six‑month review and will return to the council in April. Cox said the assistant city manager will meet with neighbor subcommittee leaders and the business owner to seek mediation and explore out‑of‑the‑box solutions. She said red curbs will be painted within two weeks and that some new signage has been ordered but will be vetted by the city attorney before installation.
Council members did not take immediate enforcement action at the meeting but affirmed staff would continue outreach and return with options for council consideration.
