Chairman Black then opened a Public Hearing at 8:02 P.M. on an amendment to a Conditional Use Permit at 1544 Larpenteur Avenue (JJ's Pool & Arcade). The proprietors of JJ's requested amendments that (1) allow them to employ one person rather than two persons after 7:00 P.M., if business warrants it (condition R-89-5, #1) and (2) allow the business to stay open until 1:00 A.M. rather than midnight seven days a week (condition R-89-5, #l0a). Susan Hoyt Taff reminded everyone that the original Conditional Use Permit called for a 3 month review. She also reported that the police experienced no problems at the amusement center, and no residents notified City Hall with complaints regarding the amusement center. PUBLIC HEARING REQUESTED BY Mr. JOSEPH A. SACCO, 1544 LARPENTEUR Mr. Joseph Sacco, proprietor of JJ's, indicated that business at the present time doesn't warrant having two adult employees on the premises after 7:00 P.M. Mr. Jim Sacco said the facilities are well lit both inside and outside, and the space is very open so it is easy to keep an eye on customers at all times. The second request for a change in the closing time was initiated beeause their customers after 10:00 P.M. are somewhat older than daytime customers. They believe the 18-20 year olds would stay the extra hour if they were open. Resident Mr. Mark Kosanke of 1471 California stated that he hadn't noticed any problems in the neighborhood from JJ's. He requested that the Planning Commission review the Conditional Use Permit in six months, if the proposed amendments were adopted.
