After a presentation by staff and comments by the applicant's representative, the
Commission received testimony in opposition to the project from four residents of
Lido Isle and a representative of business owners of the building at the northeast
corner of West Coast Highway and Tustin Avenue. The residents' main concern
were in regard to potential noise from several different sources. These sources
included noise from the outdoor patio, customers using the boat slips, late
night/early morning boaters navigating the channels and bay and weekend
afternoon live entertainment. The business representative's concerns included
potential traffic problems at the West Coast Highway and Tustin Avenue
intersection and restaurant customers using their parking lot.
Commission discussion focused on the noise issues, the length of the off -site
parking agreement, employee parking, delivery operations, the parking
management and valet plans, hours of the outdoor patio and whether the
operator's license would be effective in resolving potential disturbances.
A motion for approval by Commissioner Toerge included several changes to the
conditions of approval draft resolution. Notable revisions included a requirement
that all employees obtain an annual parking permit, that the outdoor dining area
located at the front of the building close at 1:30 a.m. daily, that the weekend
hours be extended to allow a 9:00 a.m. opening and that the annual review of the
CUP be noticed meetings. With these changes, the Commission determined that
the findings for approval could be made and voted in favor of the applicants
request (4 ayes, 1 no, 2 excused).
