A. The applicant is proposing to open a new business in the

several residences to the north, and as such, the noise and
the gathering of people may cause a nuisance;

NOW, THEREFORE, the Planning Commission of the City of
Hermosa Beach, California does hereby deny a Conditional Use
Permit and Parking Plan Amendment for on-sale general alcohol in
