lbarra: So you're saying you represent 98 people? Rankin: we're representing the Homeowners Association coming into this, yes. lbarra: Which consists of 38? Rankin: Ninety-eight units, yeah. when we went to our community manager that was what she suggested we do going into this. Nahale-a: Anything further? There was nothing further from the Commissioners. Nahale-a: If not, it's been moved and seconded. Thomas: I have one question. Have you had any live music in the other place? Nguyen: In our current location? Thomas: Yeah. Nguyen: No. Thomas: You haven't.

It doesn't necessarily, even if you say that your conversation... Gonzalez: I believe the applicant addressed that earlier. I think she addressed the applicant about amplification or the housing because the applicant testified that without anticipating amplification because the servers won't be able to take orders. Thomas: Yeah, okay. Nguyen: To be honest with you, I think that if the dining area is full of people, of customers, the sound of everybody in there talking will overrule or overpower the band. Right?
