Senior Planner Daniel Fama presented staff report to consider the request for property
located at 220 E Campbell Avenue and 22 S. 2nd Street to allow establishment of a new
restaurant with a full service bar, outdoor seating, and “late-night activities”.
Commissioners asked if both building were owned by the same entity and received clarity that they were owned separately. Senior Planner responded that are owned by different, but related entities.
Commissioners deliberated about the approval process of having a mural or whether they should let the business owners decide on the final product of the mural. Some Commissioners discussed whether the mural should have a professional commissioned
for paint it, have it go before the Civic Improvement Commission for approval, or let the
business owner exercise their free speech to paint the mural to their liking.
Chair Buchbinder opened the public hearing.
Oswaldo Mesia was present along with owners of the business.

Leonard Rifkind, the owner's attorney spoke and stated that both buildings are owned
respectively by two members in separate trusts. He requested that “may be” should be
changed to “shall” in exhibit A – Conditions of No 6.
Mr. Mesia also requested to have business stay open until 11pm during summer weekend hours.
The public hearing closed.
Commissioners were enthusiastic about the restaurant and were supported of the project.
Commission agreed to have the mural proposal before the Civic Improvement
Commission but made it clear that it would be non-binding. Commissioners did not want
to micromanage or hinder the creative process in the production of the mural and thought it would be beneficial to engage the Civic Improvement Commission.
Commissioner Ostrowski believes it will be a huge asset to Campbell. Does not believe
that there should be a condition of approval and review. 11pm is a good closing time.
The Commission also noted that outdoor seating shall be allowed also to 11pm.
Chair Buchbinder closed public hearing.
