Terry Yee, 30 W. Neal Street, #110, represented the application. Mr. Yee advised that his intent would be to have soft, background music (such as a piano or harp) and not amplified, loud music. He stated that he was in agreement with the conditions of the staff report. He also advised that he was not interested in offering hard liquor and that it is more expensive and more difficult to obtain a liquor license for hard liquor. Commissioner Lutz asked the applicant about his plans for signage. Mr. Yee responded that he would like to install the optimum amount of signage.

Zoning for the property is C-C (Central Commercial) District, Core Area Overlay, Downtown Revitalization District. Mr. Iserson presented the staff report recommending approval of Case Z-97 - 79, subject to the conditions of the staff report. He provided the history of this application, noting that a previous approval was granted in 1992. The first phase of project is near completion; however, the approval for the second phase has lapsed. The applicant is reapplying for approval of the second phase. He advised that the project is basically the same as that which was approved in 1992. Mr. Iserson indicated that the design of the project maintains the old town look of the area and the project meets the goals of the Downtown Specific Plan, the standards of the Downtown design guidelines, and the Core Overlay District. The applicant has agreed to staff's suggestion to eliminate the 30 inch parapet, and a condition has been included to allow an alternative design. Planning Commission Minutes Page 5 May 28, 1997
