| Proposed Motion: |
| Move City Council approve Entertainment Use Permit, PLH22-0056 Tipsy Egg & The Uncommon, to continue to allow live indoor and outdoor entertainment subject to the conditions recommended by Planning and Zoning Commission. |
| Background Data: |
- Zoned City Center District (CCD)
- Zoning Code requires Entertainment Use Permit approval for live indoor entertainment within 600 feet of the nearest residentially zoned property and for live outdoor entertainment and speakers within 1,320 feet of a residentially zoned property.
- The initial Entertainment Use Permit (PLH19-0045 Tipsy Egg/The Uncommon) approval was issued in 2019 with a one (1) year time condition. Changes in City staff and pandemic-related business impacts delayed the application to extend the EUP. The applicant and City staff worked together to bring the applicant back into compliance through this request.

| Review and Recommendation: |
The dual restaurant concept of Tipsy Egg and The Uncommon offers a variety of entertainment activities, which include background music as well as indoor and outdoor live performances. 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 or less from a residentially zoned property. The nearest residentially zoned property is approximately 715 feet from Tipsy Egg and The Uncommon. The initial Entertainment Use Permit approval included a one (1) 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. |
