Paul Strain, resident of Pier Colony, urged Council not to approve the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for the restaurant.

(4:21:13) Councilmember Bohr asked resident Mr. Strain when he moved into his residence in Pier Colony. Mr. Strain replied thirteen years prior. Mark Miller, Pier Colony resident, stated he is an original owner of property in Pier Colony and has always had problems with the noise.

Mr. Alley urged Council to vote "No" on the CUP.

Project Planner Talleh described City noise ordinances, not to exceed fifty decibels near residences in the evening and not to exceed fifty feet from the entertainment source. Mr. Adams stated a compromise with hours of operation, locating the mechanical bull near the restrooms, locating live entertainment in the back room, eliminating speakers on the outdoor patio, and all exterior doors to remain closed when not in use were all acceptable. Councilmember Cook commented on access to the area and the history of noise complaints with prior businesses on the site. She voiced her opinion that the building should be demolished and rebuilt, and concerns with the doors to the outdoor patio constantly being opened due to entry and exit of servers. She inquired if glass walls could be installed floor to ceiling. Mr. Adams reiterated the applicant's preference not to enclose the area, requesting further discussion be held, if necessary, at the six-month review. Councilmember Hardy asked the Police Chief for clarification on outdoor dining hours restrictions and underage patrons. Chief Small stated the restrictions depend on the type of ABC license, and that minors may be present as long as food is served at a restaurant location. Councilmember Hardy stated her opinion that the mechanical bull would create noise problems and suggested window screening to block outside view of the bull. She asked the Planning Commission to research the effects of smoking in . outdoor dining areas on local residents. She suggested banning smoking with this project, designating live entertainment be located in the back room, requiring additional sound barriers for the theater, and limiting outdoor dining operation hours to 9:00 p.m. on weekdays and 10:00 p.m. on weekends. Mayor Pro Tern Coerper asked the applicant to comment on security issues.
