We are writing on behalf of Redcoats Pub on St. Mary's St. We understand that Redcoats has applied <br /> for permission to have music inside on Wednesday and Thursday nights from 9 -12pm and there is some opposition to <br /> this. We think it is very reasonable to have music indoors at the restaurant on Wednesday and Thursday nights from 9- <br /> 12pm. It provides the following: <br /> 1) Nightlife for adults who don't want to travel to Walnut Creek; <br /> 2) The Wed Thursday music nights would allow Redcoats to diversify their offering to serve different interests age <br /> groups, thus bringing more people to downtown Pleasanton; <br /> 3) A safe, well run gathering place for adults of all ages in our community; <br /> We are also opposed to closing Redcoats patio at lOpm on nights they have indoor music. <br /> The opposition being considered for Redcoats seems unreasonable and inconsistent for a downtown establishment. <br /> Redcoats has been a welcome addition to the restaurant offerings and gathering places for Pleasanton. Redcoats is very <br /> well run and should be allowed to have indoor music until midnight during the week and have their patio open until closing <br /> every night. Ms. Kennard is a very professional businesswoman and offers very good value for our entertainment dollars <br /> spent at Redcoats. We have had the pleasure of bringing friends from Livermore and San Ramon to Redcoats and all <br /> have voiced envy of our easy access to Redcoats, and Pleasanton's increasingly diverse downtown. <br /> Living downtown is a lifestyle choice. It has been nice to see Pleasanton more lively lately, even with the recession. Let's <br /> not turn off the lights early again, just when we've started gaining momentum for our downtown. <br /> Thank you for your consideration. <br /> Lynda Meikle <br /> Pleasanton Resident <br /> 1/11/2010 <br />
