Mr. Schroeter reviewed the background concern- ing Plannin� Commission proceedings which have taken , place. Herbert Green, attorney representing the proprietors of �, e su �ec establishment, stated tha.t none of the con- i ditions required by the Planning Commission are related ,,,,� ; to the issuance of the use permit requested by his clients. Mr. Green suggested similar restraints are not required '; of establishments in Redwood City competing with his ' clients and that his cl3.ents are not in a p.osition to # police the neighborhood with regard to the objectionable conduct of those in the area. r i In response to request from City Attorney Schricker, Mr. � Schroeter commented �oncerning the background with re- gard to complaints concerning the establishment and its � patrons. Mr. Schroeter also replied to questions from Council on the subject, observing that staff recommenda- i tion did not result in a recommendation that the use j permit be revoked, but advised that revocation proceed- � ings are the vehicle by which a use permit may be re- viewed and conditions added or removed. Mr. Schroeter � noted that at one hearing a large number of neighbors ± of the establishment were present and were quite favor- } able in supporting it, but had reservations about the � noise created by patrons during the late hours. i ; Herbert Green (see above) showed photographs of the sub- � �ec es a s ment to Council members. Mr. Green called �"` � attention to the fact that neither the Police or Fire ; i Departments observed any increase in problems in the °�"` � area since his clients ' establishment opened. He sug- � gested that the area has been known for some t3.me to be ' a gathering place for youths. f � Susan Ke_e�l , 766 Canyon Road, advised that she was present a one public hearing involving the subject establishment ! and observed that the already existing �raffic problems in the area caused by poor lighting and the condition of the road would be ag�ravated by havin� a number of people ` leaving an establishment serving beer and wine late in ' the evening.
