| Review and Recommendation: |
The restaurant offers various types of entertainment, inclusive of DJ's, live amplified bands and outdoor speakers. An Entertainment Use Permit (EUP) in the City Center District (CCD) is required for entertainment activities provided outdoors with the property being located within 1,320 feet of a residentially zoned property and if there is entertainment provided indoors with the property being located 600 feet of less from a residentially zoned property. The nearest residentially zoned property is approximately 520 feet from Recreo.
The initial Entertainment Use Permit approval included a two (2) year time condition to evaluate the compatibility of live entertainment with the surrounding residential and business developments. There have been no reports of disturbances.
Planning staff has reviewed the request and finds consistency with the General Plan and CCD zoning and recommends approval with no additional time condition. |
