Chairman Murray opened the public hearing for PLN - 12 - 00199 (Conditional Use Permit), noting that
the matter had been continued from the previous meeting. He invited staff to make their presentation.
Community Development Dir ector Saeki noted that Mr. Nguyen would make the presentation for
Planning.
Assistant Planner, Kevin Nguyen, presented staff’s report, reminding the Commission that they had
continued this item with direction to staff to provide additional information for their evaluation and for
staff to consider issues raised by the neighboring property owners relating to noise g enerated from the
subject business. Mr. Nguyen noted that police records indicate there had been 11 calls complaining
about the property receiv ed during the last two years. In addition, Mr. Nguyen noted that ABC
provided a disciplinary history of the subject site , which indicated they had issued a $3,000 fine to the
business owner for selling alcoholic beverages to a minor.
Mr. Nguyen stated th at in light of the activities on the property, staff suggests implementing these
additional safety measures: 1) that the sale of alcoholic beverages and live entertainment activities
cease at 1:30 a.m., and the business close at 2:00 a.m., rather than 3:00 a.m. as proposed by the
applicant . Mr. Nguyen’s exhibit showed that closing at 2:00 a.m. is consistent with past Planning
Commission actions. In addition, he noted another condition of approval is for the westerly side door to
remain closed during busin ess hours.
Mr. Nguyen stated that correspondence had been received from a ne ighboring property owner, Eduardo
Schonborn , reporting noise emitting from the property. This correspondence had been included in the
staff report. Mr. Nguyen stated that staff believed these concerns were addressed with in the
recommended conditions of approval.
Commissioner Kiefer asked for more information regarding the Police report.
Mr. Nguyen noted that some of the complaints included: excessiv e signage; one noise complain t; a sex
crime oc curred on the property, possibly in the parking lot; and the ABC violation occurred in 2005. He
noted the applicant was given the option of a suspended license or $3,000 fine.
Jose Correa of Vasilio’s Restaurant, 7931 Firestone Boulevard , addressed the Commission.
Chairman Murray asked Mr. Correa if at the last Planning Commission meeting, Mr. Correa had denied
having had any violations.
Mr. Correa responded that he was referring to the last two years during which he wasn’t aware of any
violations. In regards to the ABC violat ion in 2005, he stated that the bartender had been let go. He
also stated that they do not serve lunch, but are ready to open between 6:30 - 7:00 p.m., and they are
able to provide lunch or earlier dinner if set up in advance. He stated generally he wished to be open
from 6:30 p.m., and would stop alcohol sales by 1:30 a.m., Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
He noted that after 1:30 , they allow patrons to finish up their evening while they are cleaning up.
Commissioner Kiefer asked Mr. Correa to respond to the eleven (11) Police reports.
Mr. Correa responded, one call was in regards to excess noise, which he believed was between
customers and occurred in the parking lot.
Commissioner Kiefer asked Mr. Corr ea why at the last meeting Mr. Correa had said there had been no
violations.
Mr. Correa again stated that he thought the Commission was referring to the last couple of years.
Chairman Murray asked Mr. Correa if he had read and accepted the recommended co nditions of
approval.
PLANNING COMMISSION D RAFT MINUTES, OCTOBER 17, 2012 – PAGE 2
Page 3
Mr. Correa stated that he did accept the conditions. He responded to the concerns about noise and
suggested a couple mitigation measures such as raising the height of the wall, or installing sound proof
windows.
At this point, City Attorney Garcia stated that because Commissioners Lujan and Garcia missed the
previous hearing, they would be eligible to participate only if they had reviewed the recording of the
rd
October 3 meeting. Both Commissioners stated they had not been able to d o so; therefore, they left
the Council Chambers. M s. Garcia noted there was a quorum with the three remaining Commissioners.
The hearing then continued.
The Commissioners then inquired and learned the following information from Mr. Correa: he provide s
s ecurity from 8 p.m. to closing; he understands and believes that he can comply with Condition number
10, that 50% of the gross sales must be from food ; he does charge ($5.00 to $7.00 ) admission when
they provide a buffet; although they have used the rear d oor for entry in the past , he realizes that door
must now remain shut and the front must be the entrance.
Chairman Murray asked staff for correspondence.
Kevin Nguyen stated the one letter from Mr. Schonborn had been distributed and addressed.
Chairman Murray invited members of the audience to address the Commission.
The following persons addressed the Commission:
1. William Romero, address provided from Bell, stated he was an employee of the restaurant. He
stated that there are numerous employees whose jobs depend on the restaurant’s activities. He
stated that they will take all measures available to address the neighbors’ concerns. He also stated
that the average age of patrons was in their 30’s . Also he said they have not had problems with
crowd cont rol, and only a couple times had to turn people away. Additionally, they employ three
security guards. His position is manager and he keeps the operation running properly.
Speaking in opposition:
2. Eduardo Schonborn, the author of the letter the Commissio n had received, noted he lived on the
nd
north side of 2 Street , but within 500 feet of the subject property. He did not believe the business
should be viewed as a legitimate restaurant, but is much more like a nightclub; that Mr. Correa is
trying to appea se the neighbo rs. Mr. Schonborn said that he is able to hear the noise fro m the
restaurant from his house; however, since he replaced his windows with double - paned glass, he
cannot hear the noise from inside his house any more, only from outside. Mr. Sch onborn suggested
the Commissioners tighten up the language of the conditions to address hours of operation since the
residential uses nearby are being impacted by noise. He felt Condition number 4 puts the burden on
the residents to prove the noise is abo ve the acceptable limits; and regarding number 10, suggested
that the resta urant be required to provide proof to the public (of food sales exceeding alcohol sales).
3. Maria Correa, wished to speak in support. She noted that she has been employed at the res taurant
for three years, and described their efforts to reach out to the residents in the area. She also stated
that some of the noise complaints are in fact coming from the Norm’s Restaurant parking lot to the
east. Mrs. Correa stated that they have had good success utilizing their security patrol which she
closely monitors. Typically they have approximately 30 patrons on Monday, 50 - 60 people on
Thursdays . She also stated that she has spoken wit h the owner of the adjacent apartment and they
have indica ted they are willing to help raise the height of their block wall. She described their menu
to offer carne asada, soup and beans. Mrs. Correa asked the Commission to consider hours of
operation of 5 p.m. to 2:30 - 3:00 a.m.
4. Mr. Correa added, the adjacent restaurant, Norm’s, is open 24 hours. He shared with the
Commissioners that some of their customers go to Norm’ s for dinner when they leave Vasilio’s.

Chairman Murray asked staff for their recommendation.
Mr. Nguyen stated staff recommended approval wi th the conditions as provided in the attached
Resolution. That number will become 12 - 2795.
There being no questions regarding staff’s recommendation, Chairman Murray closed the public
hearing.
Commission discussion:
The Commissioners discussed the issue s addressed: noise impact s to neighbors; hours of operation;
the fact that the restaurant had generated 11 calls to the Police Dept over the last two years; the facility
is an acceptable location for a restaurant, but as a nightclub see conflicts with res idential; whether or not
to limit the hours of the restaurant, or just the entertainment; whether or not to approve provisionally and
return for review after six months. The Commissioners clarified with the appli cant that the most vital
days for his resta urant are Thursday thru Saturday and also on Mondays.
William Davis, City Planner, explained to the Commission that the applicant currently has an
entertainment permit that permits him to operate, and that permit does not limit the hours.
City Attorney Y vette Abich Garcia stated that since the applicant has already been approved for
entertainment by the Police Dept., it would be a contradiction to conflict with that permit.
Community Development Director Saeki noted that the entertainment permit has a nu mber of conditions
that include that the restaurant remain a “bonafide restaurant” and that the gross sale of alcohol no t
exceed the gross sale of food, but did not indicate the hours of operation. He stated that the expansion
of the activitie s requires t he conditional use p ermit, but if the applicant chooses not to increase the
activities, his entertainment permit is valid.
Discussion ensued. The Commissioners were in agreement that the restaurant could retain the hours
they choose, closing by 2 a.m., b ut that entertainment and the sale of alcohol would cease at 1:30 a.m.
Mr. Correa stated his acceptance of the revised language.
It was moved by Commissioner Kiefer, seconded by Commissioner Morales and passed by a 3 - 0 vote,
to adopt Resolution No. 12 - 27 95, revising Condition number 2 as addressed , and to require a review at
a noticed public hearing in six months.
Chairman Murray stated the action of the Planning Commission will be final unless the matter is
appealed to the City Council, with the appropr iate fee, within the specified time period as set forth in
the City’s Ordinance.
