Attachment A1 - Code Case History & Timeline Background On December 20, 2022, a Change in Licensee Information and/or Licensed Premises Application was submitted to the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) (Attachment 1). This document shows a premises reduction and declares the use of the property as a full-service restaurant with music, karaoke, pool tables, and coin-operated games, operating until 1:00 A.M. on Fridays and Saturdays. Approximately four months later, on April 17, 2023, the City of San José’s Code Enforcement Department received a complaint from a Complaining Party (CP) alleging:
1. An unpermitted pizza restaurant was operating from the subject property; and
2. Multiple unpermitted additions and structures were reported to be in the rear patio area; and
3. The business was operating past midnight without approval from the Planning Division.
Research found that Masson Partners LLC was the legal owner of 163 W Santa Clara Street, as shown on the latest property assessment roll at that time. The Agent of Service was found to be Michael Messinger. Between May 1, 2023, and November 20, 2024, Code Enforcement attempted to and eventually completed, an inspection of the subject property after reaching out to Michael and his team. For purposes of this report, these contacts are generally referred to as the Responsible Parties (RP). The inspection found several unpermitted structures and additions in the rear patio area, including, but not limited to, a commercial storage container converted into a bar, bleacher seating, and enclosed canopies over 120 square feet. In addition, staff confirmed with the RP that the subject business was operating until 2:00 A.M. on Fridays and Saturdays. Code Enforcement advised that the unpermitted work and late-night use required Building and Planning approvals, and it was requested that they cease all use of the unpermitted structure(s) and ensure business closure by midnight until the subject business obtains the necessary approval from the Building and Planning Divisions. On December 10, 2024, Code Enforcement issued a Warning Letter, requesting that all construction and late-night use cease immediately.
On January 8, 2025, Planning met with Michael Messinger and his team for an intake meeting. Staff went over multiple options for remediating the Code Violation, which included operating as a Public Eating Establishment (restaurant) late-night with a Special Use Permit, or as a Drinking Establishment/Nightclub late-night with a Conditional Use Permit. Staff informed the RP that if the exterior changes were kept, they would need to meet Historic Review criteria because the building is a designated Landmark structure on the City’s Historic Resources Inventory, which could extend the review process. The RP indicated that all unpermitted exterior work would be removed.
San José Police Department’s VICE unit conducted a grant-funded IMPACT inspection of San Pedro Social on January 22, 2025. The following day, VICE informed the RP that they were operating without an Entertainment Permit and were in violation of the Municipal Code. The RP was informed that both ABC and VICE have received complaints from patrol officers, concerned citizens, and surrounding businesses about the Attachment A: Related Approvals and Code Case History
business not complying with local and state laws. The RP was provided with the SJPD Permits Unit information to apply for an Entertainment Permit.
Code Enforcement completed a late-night inspection at approximately 12:30 A.M. on February 1, 2025, during which the business was observed to be fully operational as a nightclub, in continued violation, after RP received the Warning Letter to cease all unpermitted uses.
Code Enforcement issued a Compliance Order to the RP on February 2, 2025, requiring upon receipt, to cease all late-night uses and obtain the necessary permits from both Planning and Building. The next day, Code Enforcement contacted San Pedro Social’s Director of Operations and their Assistant General Manager, advising they cease the continued late-night use until otherwise approved by the Planning Department. On February 26, 2025, an application for Special Use Permit (SUP) to legalize the late-night use, was submitted. Two days later, an invoice for the SUP , under file number SP25-003, was generated and sent to the RP with instructions on how to pay the fee. However, on March 1 and March 8, 2025, Code Enforcement conducted additional late-night inspections of the subject property at approximately 12:30 A.M. and found the business was fully operational as a nightclub. Two days later, after inspections found the business was still operating in violation, the invoice for SP25-003 was paid.
The continued non-compliance of the subject business led Code Enforcement to issue to the property owner an Appeals Hearing Board (AHB) Warning Letter (Attachment 2). A copy was emailed to all RP . The AHB is the highest hearing body under the Code Enforcement Department, where fines and fees may be levied against an RP for non-compliance.
After the issuance of the AHB Warning Letter, Code Enforcement performed another late-night inspection at approximately 1:10 A.M. on March 15, 2025. The business was observed to be still in full operation as a late-night nightclub, in continued violation of the two Warning Letters and the Compliance Order issued to date.
On March 17, 2025, Code Enforcement returned a phone call to property owner, Michael Messinger. Mr. Messinger was advised of the outstanding violations. Mr. Messinger acknowledged the violation and stated that he had already submitted an application to legalize the late-night use by seeking a Special Use Permit. However, he stated that he would not comply with the Compliance Order and that the business would continue to operate after midnight in the interim. Following that conversation, Code Enforcement performed additional late- night inspections of the subject property on the 27th and the 29th of March, 2025, at approximately 12:35 and 1:30 A.M., respectively, confirming the business was in full operation as a nightclub with late-night use, as Mr. Messinger indicated in prior correspondence that it would be—despite the Warnings and Order to cease the unpermitted operation until permits were obtained.
On April 2, 2025, the Planning Division issued a letter of incompleteness for SP25-003, citing an Operations Plan and the Transportation Demand Management (TDM) checklist as required items for a complete application. Staff additionally outlined several other issues that needed clarification including:
Attachment A: Related Approvals and Code Case History
1. Provide a Historic Preservation Permit Adjustment to assess the accessory buildings and structures against the Secretary of the Interior’s Historic Standards for this designated Landmark Structure.
2. Outdoor areas may not be permissible under the late-night use permit and may require another permit/invoice if retained.
3. Provide the required operations plan, Transportation Demand Management checklist, and additional details (elevations, photometric plan).
4. Ensure documents are properly named and uploaded to avoid review issues.
5. Clarify project area and square footage and ensure all required plan elements are included per the Contents of a Plan Sheet Guide linked on the application.
6. Remove business operations and sidewalk café from the plans.
On April 4th and 5th, 2025, Code Enforcement conducted a site inspection, noting issues with the continued use of outdoor seating and late- night operations without permits. The unpermitted railing associated with the outdoor seating area, however, was removed. The late-night inspection of the subject property at approximately 12:30 A.M. confirmed the business was in full operation as a nightclub with late-night use with music and dancing, without permits. No permit would be complete for the outdoor seating area until approximately a year later, April 2, 2026, through a Public Works Sidewalk Seating permit.
An Appeals Hearing Board meeting was held on April 10, 2025, resulting in an issued administrative order, as set forth in the Code Enforcement Staff Report dated March 12, 2025, to cease all unpermitted use (late-night) by April 11 and obtain all necessary permits by December 1, 2025 (Attachment 3).
On both May 3 and 10, 2025, Code Enforcement performed a late night inspection of the subject property, at 12:18 A.M. on both occasions, noting the business appears to be closed, and no music or security were present. The lights were on, the Slice of Homage pizza location was also closed, and chairs were placed upside down on tables.
On May 8, 2025, Planning staff received a memorandum from the San José Police Department, which recommended the denial of permit SP25-003. In that memo, SJPD states that their Permits Unit attempted to contact the business approximately four times to advise them that they were out of compliance and needed an Entertainment Permit. After inspecting and coordinating with RP on January 22, 2025, it was conveyed to the RP that ABC and VICE both have received complaints about the business not following local and state laws from patrol officers, concerned citizens, and surrounding businesses, no further response had been received from the RP to obtain permits. A reasonable amount of time has passed for this business to obtain an Entertainment Permit from SJPD, but they have failed to do so. The memo states that the location is in a high-crime census tract and is unduly concentrated. A crime analysis found 2,695 calls for service Attachment A: Related Approvals and Code Case History
within a 1,000-foot radius of San Pedro Social. Of these, 696 occurred between 12:00 midnight and 6:00 A.M. Within a one-year period from the time of permit application, there had been nine (9) incidents after midnight, some of which have resulted in serious life-threatening injuries. The San Jose Police Department has investigated and found that this business has continued to maintain or use the property, or allow the property to be maintained or used, in a manner that creates or fosters the creation of a public nuisance that negatively affects the health and safety of the citizens of San Jose.
On May 10, 2025, CP indicated an unpermitted outdoor Smoker-BBQ, and vendors were in operation without a permit on the rear patio of San Pedro Social. The complaint alleged an odor nuisance and eye irritation that accumulated in their residence without dissipating. Code Enforcement performed an inspection of the subject property on May 27, 2025, finding, from the public right-of-way, an unpermitted outdoor Smoker-BBQ. The on-site inspector contacted the business owner of the BBQ (BO). When asked about permits, the BO indicated they had been informed that no permit would be required for a one-night event. Later, on May 28, 2025, Code Enforcement spoke with RP about the smoker. The RP indicated they spoke by phone with a City Planner, who informed them that the smoker would be allowed, provided it was approved by the San Jose Fire Department and the County Health Department. The RP informed the inspector that they intended to keep the smoker operational and that it would be included in the SUP application/plans. That same day, Code Enforcement arrived at the property and observed that the smoker was still in operation. The owner/operator of the unit was on site, and the inspector spoke with them about their operation. During the conversation, the owner/operator indicated they were under contract to operate 4 days a week for the next two years, 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P .M., in contradiction to the one-time event indicated the day before. The RP reached out to their Project Manager for SP25-003, Planner Hughes to update their project to include the BBQ unit, but Planner Hughes informed them that both the activity and the unit cannot remain without the permit first being approved. Code Enforcement advised the RP to remove the BBQ until permits were obtained. The next day, Code Enforcement found the smoker was still present on the subject site, but by June 2, 2025, it had been removed.
On June 16, 2025, CP indicates a shared emergency stairway exit—fire escape—was blocked or impeded by beer kegs and propane tanks stored for San Pedro Social. Code Enforcement inspected the property on June 17, confirming the at-risk stairway and requiring the removal of all items blocking the fire escape. Pictures were received from RP on June 23, 2025, showing the stairway was free and clear, however, the storage use remained and included kegs and propane tanks, some of which were stored above head height in an ad hoc fashion. A Compliance Order was issued on July 8, 2025, to cease the storage use of the outdoor area for beer kegs, propane tanks, and other items that were previously blocking the egress of the fire escape.
On July 10, 2025, SJPD visited San Pedro Social at 11:30 P .M. The business was open, and patrons were observed singing karaoke without an Entertainment Permit, which was communicated to the RP as a requirement back in January. When asked, the bartender indicated that last call was made, and business was closing at 12:00 midnight. No indication was made regarding whether or not food sales were being made at the time of visit.
Attachment A: Related Approvals and Code Case History
On April 29, 2025, the applicants resubmitted their project to the Planning Division. On May 7, 2025, Staff was able to intake their resubmitted materials with the requested revisions, which had addressed the items from their April incompleteness memo. Staff determined the project was complete and began the next steps to bring the project to a hearing on May 16, 2025. On June 27, 2025, hearing notices were mailed to properties within 500 feet of San Pedro Social notifying residents and business owners of an upcoming Directors Hearing to either approve, conditionally approve, or deny the Special Use Permit to allow a restaurant to operate late-night. Staff received significant community interest on the project after the mailed notices were received which warranted a community meeting. A new project applicant/representative took over the project on July 17, 2025. At the Directors Hearing held on July 23, 2025, the Planning department deferred SP25-003 to a later date so a community meeting could be held. A community meeting was held on August 11, 2025, to introduce and discuss the project proposed, which was a restaurant use seeking to operate late-night in the Downtown area. Overall, the meeting reflected divided perspectives regarding the use of SP Social as a nightclub. Supporters emphasized the venue’s economic contributions, its role as a professionally managed and safety-conscious establishment, and its importance as a destination that contributes to Downtown activity and vibrancy. Conversely, opponents raised concerns regarding neighborhood impacts, including reports of fights, police activity, intoxicated patrons, and litter, as well as the compatibility of late-night operations with nearby residential uses and broader concerns related to public health, safety, general nuisance, and neighborhood character. During the meeting, the applicant/representative and their staff indicated the use of the property would be of benefit to the City as a nightclub. Staff indicated the Special Use Permit for late-night restaurant use would not be the appropriate path forward to approving a nightclub with late-night operation, but, rather, a Conditional Use Permit would be required. Staff directed a CUP be applied for to accommodate the change in use.
On Friday, August 15, 2025, CP indicates that SPS continued to operate as a nightclub. Advertisements reviewed by Supervising Code Enforcement Staff and coordinated with the City Attorney’s Office confirm that the business was advertising as a nightclub which was deemed suitable evidence to conclude the continued use of the site as a nightclub with late-night hours. That same night, Alcoholic Beverage Control performed an inspection at approximately 11:00 P .M. After pat-down at the door, it was observed that no dining tables, chairs, food menus or condiments were present. The entire first floor was empty to accommodate the dance floor for the live DJ performance. The inspector purchased a cocktail and confirmed distilled spirits present. When asked about food service, the bartender stated that food was not available. When flagged down, a kitchen employee also confirmed no food was available. The inspection indicates that the kitchen, visible from the public area, was not preparing food and appeared inactive. No SJPD-issued Entertainment Permit was present. The Ownership/Management license condition for their ABC type 47 permit is to sell food up to 30 minutes before close, which they were observed to violate. The following day, Saturday, August 16, 2025, Code Enforcement performed an inspection of the subject site and found no continued late-night operation after the previous Friday’s unpermitted operation.
On September 5, 2025, SJPD arrived at the subject site at approximately 11:00 P .M. An Officer observed two DJ's playing music, dancing, and the kitchen had stopped serving food. The bar stopped serving drinks at closing, 12:00 Midnight. Speakers were observed projecting noise outside, and no SJPD-issued Entertainment Permit or Ownership/Management license had been issued yet. The business was likely Attachment A: Related Approvals and Code Case History
operating in violation of a public nuisance condition of their ABC type 47 permit to cease alcohol sales 30 minutes before closing and to offer food up to closing. On September 13, 2025, an officer observed similar operations, citing a lack of an Entertainment Permit or an Ownership/Management license, and possible ABC violations for failure to provide food service.
Another Compliance Order was issued on September 26, 2025, citing operation as an unpermitted nightclub without a Special Use Permit.
The Order indicated the violations and corrective action to be taken.
An Inactivity Warning letter was issued to the applicant on October 22, 2025, stating that inactivity for six months or longer would result in the project being either taken to a hearing for a final decision or withdrawn by the Director. The projected timeline was estimated to enter into inactivity starting March 23, 2026.
On November 15, 2025, and December 19, 2025, Code Enforcement performed an inspection, finding the business closed. Canopies without permits were still present on the rear patio.
On December 23, 2025, the Planning Division completed a third round of review requiring additional revisions from the applicant to convert their project from restaurant use to a nightclub with late-night hours. Staff outlined the issues that needed clarification, which were:
1. Project documents conflict on restaurant versus nightclub uses, hours, and operational descriptions.
2. Incorrect permit references repeatedly misidentify CUP requirements as SUP or no permit required.
3. On-site queuing and crowd management plans are inadequate to protect pedestrian access and right-of-way.
4. Noise mitigation measures are unclear for doors, windows, ventilation, patios, and outdoor areas.
5. Age restrictions are inconsistent and do not clearly prohibit minors during nightclub operations.
6. Slice of Homage’s operational relationship to San Pedro Social is unclear and potentially noncompliant.
7. Zoning data, square footage, seating counts, and patron limits are missing or inaccurate.
8. Interior nightclub-related improvements are proposed but not consistently documented on plans.
9. Temporary tent structures lack sufficient detail for safety, utility, and land use evaluation.
10. Core application documents are outdated, inaccurate, or inconsistent with the proposed project.
11. Operations Plan contains conflicting information on hours, staffing, food service, patio use, and signage.
12. Menu documents create uncertainty about late-night food service and bona fide eating establishment compliance.
13. Security Plan lacks staffing ratios, coverage clarity, and defined monitoring boundaries.
14. Document inconsistencies prevent full evaluation of operational impacts and CUP compliance.
On January 28, 2026, a new applicant/representative took over the project. The new applicant/representative contacted Planner Hughes, the Project Manager, to go over the operations plan over two hour-long phone calls dated March 23 and 24, 2026.
Attachment A: Related Approvals and Code Case History
On February 24, 2026, a joint inspection found interior work without permits to include a pizza warming oven (electrical/duct work), a countertop bar/sink (electrical/plumbing), ceiling-mounted equipment speakers/lights (electrical), and a DJ stage area (electrical). Rear patio canopies over 120 square feet, elevated mounted speakers (electrical), garbage area enclosed, and an addition at the rear of the building used for storage remains.
On March 13, 2026, Code Enforcement conducted an inspection and found that the business was closed. The operator, Slice of Homage, was replaced with Square Pie Guys.
On May 8, 2026, the Planning Department completed a fourth round of review requiring additional revisions. Staff outlined the issues that needed clarification, which were:
1. Revisions Required. Your application requires revisions to the Plan Set, Project Narrative, Noise Mitigation Plan, Operations Plan, and Security Plan. In particular, please ensure that the information provided in your application is consistent across all plans and documents. Please provide a detailed response letter addressing each of the required revisions outlined in this review letter. Please see the project review below for a list of required revisions that must be made prior to staff preparing the project for hearing.
2. Additional Fees Required. Please note that this is the fourth round of review. Per the Planning Fee Schedule, the initial application fees cover three rounds of review. Projects that exceed three rounds of review are subject to the Supplemental Review Fee. Please see the attached invoice for the fourth round of review fees. The project will not be brought to a hearing and may be deferred until all fees have been paid in full.
The RP has not made the necessary revisions but has requested that the permit be brought to a hearing despite the outstanding issues.

San Pedro Social Club
_____
Approved Date
I have received your request for input regarding the existing San Pedro Social Club (SP Social Club), located at 163 West Santa Clara in San José. SP Social Club is seeking a Conditional Use Perm
it for nightclub with late night operation (CP25-025). The business previously sought a Special Use Permit to allow late-night use (SP25-003). The police department was opposed at that time (May 2, 2025). SP Social Club currently has Type-47 – On Sale General – Eating Place ABC license. A Type-47 is issued to bona fide eating places.
This business is requesting to stay open from:
6:00am – 2:00am, Every day
(Refer to business’ operation plan for further details) Per California Business and Professions (B&P) Code Section 23958, the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) shall deny an application for a license if issuance would tend to create a law enforcement problem or if it would result in or contribute to an undue concentration of licenses, as defined in Sections 23958.4(a)(1) and 23958.4(a)(3). A location may be deemed to have an undue concentration based on crime statistics and/or its proximity to existing ABC-licensed establishments. However, pursuant to Sections 23958.4(b)(1) and 23958.4(b)(2), ABC may issue a license if the local governing body determines that public convenience or necessity would be served. In the City of San José, the Planning Department and Planning Commission act as the delegated authorities to make such determinations for new licenses.
163 West Santa Clara is in San José Police Beat E2. The reported crime statistics as defined by B&P Section 23958.4(c) are over the 20% crime index thus the location is considered unduly concentrated per B&P Section 23958.4 (a)(1) for on sale establishments.

A record check of SP Social Club revealed the San José Police Department has investigated and found that this business has continued to maintain or use the property or allow the property to be maintained or used, in a manner that creates or fosters the creation of a public nuisance. This is a violation of the San Jose Muni Code (SJMC) Section 1.13.040, California Civil Code Section 3479, and California Penal Code Sections 372 and 415.
Below are incidents that occurred in 2025 to today’s date:

• On 08/23/25, at approximately 2342 hours, a battery occurred on the premise.

Attachment E: San Jose Police Department Final Memo
Some of these incidents occurred after midnight. These violations negatively affect the health and safety of the citizens of San José.
ABC and Vice received complaints about this business not following local and state laws from patrol officers, concerned citizens, and surrounding businesses. There were on-going safety concerns regarding how this business was conducting themselves along with violence amongst patrons. On 1/22/25, Vice conducted an IMPACT inspection and spoke with Ja’Vonn Williams, who identified himself as one of the managers. Detectives reminded him of the responsibilities and accountability associated with the sale of alcohol. Furthermore, a checklist was used to note any violations observed and it was given to the licensee. On 1/23/25, Vice advised Mr. Williams that the business was in violation of 6.60.012 SJMC, and they needed an Entertainment Permit
Attachment E: San José Police Department Final Memo
(EP) due to them meeting criteria in section 6.60.028 and 6.60.030 SJMC) (occupancy load over 100 patrons per the Fire Marshal and live entertainment). Mr. Williams informed me the person to speak with regarding completing an EP would be Jess Morales ([email protected]). Ofc.
Ikeuchi #4574 forwarded this information to SJPD Permits Unit.
Prior to July 2025, the SJPD Permits Unit attempted to contact the business management personnel approximately four times to inform them that they were out of compliance and needed an EP. However, the business management at the time failed to respond. The current management team has been responsive and in contact with the SJPD Permits Unit.
This business has had a Type-47 ABC license, which is issued to bona fide eating places. Based on the flyers and promotions on their social media and business website, in the first half of 2025, and before any applications for a SUP/CUP or an EP were submitted and processed, it appeared that it operated more like a nightclub i.e. charging cover, bottle service, VIP tickets, etc. with games.
A record check at the time of their SUP application in May of 2025, revealed that SP Social Club did not have a valid late-night permit. As mentioned above, multiple calls were generated after midnight including violent incidents and disturbances. Although Condition #1 on their ABC license says, “Sales, service, and consumption of alcoholic beverages is permitted until 2:00 AM,” they were still required to obtain proper late-night permit(s) to be in compliance with local laws. This business was operating late-night well before applying for a Conditional Use Permit for a nightclub with late-night operation. The SJPD is concerned that similar activity will occur if this business is allowed to operate late-night.
The San Jose Police Department recognizes that there is a demand to compete with neighboring businesses without limiting patron’s experience along with bringing vibrancy to the downtown area. The type of entertainment is permitted given a business in the City of San José is operating with the correct licenses and within policy. However, based on the totality of circumstances in 2024-2025, including violent calls for service, majority of the above occurring after hours, surveillance videos of patrons getting into physical altercations on and around the premise, the business conducting themselves like a nightclub and not a restaurant (charging cover, bottle service, VIP tickets etc.), being in violation of not having a valid entertainment permit, and operating late-night before applying for the appropriate permit (SUP/CUP), SJPD does not recommend this business get a conditional use permit.
The City of San José’s Code Enforcement has an open investigation against this business, as well. Contact Code Enforcement for further information.
Vice emailed surveillance footage to Alexandre Hughes from San José Planning Department which show various physical disturbances between patrons in and around the business. Refer to photos below for further information regarding SP Social Club promoting their occupancy load, promotion of live entertainment, bottle service promotion, and after-hours information.

7 S3§4 Breaks & Lunches
- It will be a 4-hour shift on any of the 3 days, thus no need for the state requirement for lunch. Guards who need a break because of medical reasons or recovering from an incident are allowed a small break to gather themselves.
SECTION 4: INCIDENT PROCEDURES
S4§1 Incident Procedures
ALL employee, safety, or other concerns & issues should be immediately reported to the on shift BRAVO LEAD.
Use the below IRG "incident response guide" as reference.
1. Observe & document violations or safety issues.
2. Report issue to on-shift BRAVO LEAD via phone, radio, or in person.
3. If necessary or requested, assist Social Staff to address the issue.
4. Log issue in CONNECT TEAMS via the appropriate report type.
If the observed violation or safety issue rises to the level of endangering human life or the facility, IMMEDIATELY work to address the issue while executing step (2). Be sure to always complete step (4).
Example: You observe a Fight in the middle of the dance floor. CSI guards in the vicinity will respond immediately. Upon finalizing the situation, guards will be asked if they are mentally and physically okay to go back to work. Debriefing of the incident will happen at the end of the night.
The CSI Guards involved will then have 24 hours to complete their incident report on Connect-Teams.
De-Escalation procedures:
Physical Altercations - CSI will assist accordingly in escorting both parties out of different exits so that no possible fight occurs in front or back by taking both parties out the same direction.
Once outside, 1 to 2 guards will stay at the doors while everyone goes back to work as normal.
Gentle escorting is mandatory when removing a patron from the property. If the patron is causing harm, making threats, or endangering life, then a minimum of 2 guards will assist in escorting that person out to ensure the safety of property and guests.
Attachment G: Security Plan
8 Verbal Altercations - CSI will have 1 guard and a lead go and investigate the situation and use as many verbal de-escalation tools as possible to keep both parties from getting physical. If the situation is handled, then the guard will go back to post, while the supervisor/lead will identify that group as a possible group or person of interest for the rest of the night. Our guards will keep an eye on them. If the situation arises and verbal turns physical, then refer to the physical altercation procedure.

ORIGINAL INSPECTION DATE: May 1, 2023
COMPLIANCE DATE: February 27, 2025
ATTENTION RESPONSIBLE PARTY/PROPERTY OWNER:
Based upon the enclosed "Inspection Report," the Director of Planning, Building and Code Enforcement has determined that full compliance with the above referenced "Compliance Order" has not been achieved as of the "Compliance Date." As stated in the Compliance Order, you had a right to contest the issuance of the Compliance order through a hearing before the Director.
However, you did not exercise this right. Therefore, the next step in the process under the San Jose Municipal Code is a hearing before the City of San Jose9s Appeals Hearing Board (Board).
Your hearing is set for April 10, 2024 @ 6:30pm. The hearing date is firm to ensure the prompt disposition of cases. All parties and their representative(s) must regard the date set for hearing as certain. A party seeking a continuance of the date set for hearing, whether contested or uncontested or stipulated to by the parties, must make the request for a continuance as soon as possible, and specify the grounds for continuance. A continuance may be granted on an affirmative showing of good cause specified in subsection b, and based on consideration of the facts and circumstances specified in subsection c of Section 408 of the Appeals Hearing Board Rules and Regulations.
San Jose Municipal Code section 1.14.060 (E) provides that the Hearing will be limited to whether or not compliance has been achieved and the assessment of penalties. However, Code Enforcement will ask that the Board issue findings as well.
The Board shall consider any written or oral evidence consistent with its rules and procedures regarding the violation and compliance by the violator or by the real property owner.

Based upon the enclosed "Inspection Report," the Director of Planning, Building and Code Enforcement has determined that full compliance with the above referenced "Compliance Order" has not been achieved as of the "Compliance Date." As stated in the Compliance Order, you had a right to contest the issuance of the Compliance order through a hearing before the Director.
However, you did not exercise this right. Therefore, the next step in the process under the San Jose Municipal Code is a hearing before the City of San Jose's Appeals Hearing Board (Board).
Your hearing is set for April 10, 2024 @ 6:30pm. The hearing date is firm to ensure the prompt disposition of cases. All parties and their representative(s) must regard the date set for hearing as certain. A party seeking a continuance of the date set for hearing, whether contested or uncontested or stipulated to by the parties, must make the request for a continuance as soon as possible, and specify the grounds for continuance. A continuance may be granted on an affirmative showing of good cause specified in subsection b, and based on consideration of the facts and circumstances specified in subsection c of Section 408 of the Appeals Hearing Board Rules and Regulations.
San Jose Municipal Code section 1.14.060 (E) provides that the Hearing will be limited to whether or not compliance has been achieved and the assessment of penalties. However, Code Enforcement will ask that the Board issue findings as well.
The Board shall consider any written or oral evidence consistent with its rules and procedures regarding the violation and compliance by the violator or by the real property owner. Notification of matters to be presented to the Appeals Board including, but not limited to, documents and exhibits, must be exchanged between the parties, and provided to the Secretary of the Appeals 200 E.

Hearing Board, clearly identifying that the submittals are for the Appeals Hearing Board, identifying the hearing by title, and specifying the relevant hearing date(s), no later than ten (10) days before the scheduled hearing so that there is adequate time for City staff to prepare the packets for the Board members. (Section 307 of the Appeals Hearing Board Rules and Regulations). The Board will issue written findings that the violation is deemed admitted under the Code and whether the responsible party failed to make required corrections within the compliance period.
If the Board finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the violation has occurred and was not corrected within the specified period, the Board will issue an Administrative Order. The Administrative Order may include any or all of the following:
- An order to correct;
- Administrative penalties in an amount up to two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500.00) a day per violation;
- Reimbursement of all of the City's enforcement costs.
NOTE: Administrative Penalties imposed by the Board shall accrue from the Compliance Date specified in the Compliance Order and cease to accrue on the date the violation is corrected as determined by the Director or the Board. Failure to pay the assessed penalties and costs may be enforced as:
- A personal obligation of the violator; and/or
- If the violation is in connection with real property, a lien upon the real property. Consistent with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 685.010, as may be amended, an interest rate of ten percent (10%) per annum shall be charged on the principal amount of an administrative lien, from the date the lien is first recorded until the date that payment is received by the City.
If the Board finds that no violation has occurred or that the violation was corrected within the time period specified in the Compliance Order, the Board shall issue a finding of those facts.
The Hearing serves to provide the full opportunity of any person subject to a Compliance Order - to object to the determination that a violation has occurred and/or that the violation has continued to exist. The failure of any person subject to a Compliance Order to appear at the hearing shall constitute a failure to exhaust administrative remedies.
You are welcome to bring an interpreter, attorney, or any other person to assist you at this meeting. Please notify Board Secretary Regina Lizaola at (408) 535-7915 or [email protected] at least seven (7) days before the meeting date if you will be bringing interpreters, attorneys or other persons to assist you at the meeting.
A copy of the Compliance Order is attached for your information. Should you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Code Enforcement Inspector Manuel Duarte at (408) 535- 7889.
NOTE: If all outstanding violations now have been corrected you must schedule another inspection to avoid continuing administrative penalties. Please contact Inspector Manuel Duarte at (408) 535-7889 to make the arrangements. You will be subject to administrative charges for this follow-up inspection. Regardless of the results, the Hearing will NOT be cancelled.

ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
RECOMMENDATION
Code Enforcement staff recommends that the Appeals Hearing Board uphold the Director of Planning, Building and Code Enforcement9s determination that compliance with the Compliance Order, described below, was not achieved by the Compliance Date and include the following findings of fact, conclusions and orders in its Administrative Order:
PROCEDURAL STATUS
This Compliance Order was issued pursuant to San Jose Municipal Code (<SJMC9=) Section
1.14.030. This procedure provides an opportunity for the property owners to appeal the issuance of compliance orders and streamline the process.
Under this procedure, the property owner was given an opportunity for an intermediate review of the basis for issuing the Compliance Order. If the property owner disputes the basis for the Compliance Order, he or she may request a hearing before the Director. (SJMC Section 1.14.045.) However, if the person does not contest the Compliance Order, the basis for the compliance is admitted, and this Board9s role is to determine whether compliance has been achieved, and to assess penalties. SUMC Section 1.14.060(E). That section provides as follows:
If the person subject to the compliance order fails to request a director9s hearing, or fails to file an appeal after the decision of the director, the basis for the issuance of a compliance order will be deemed admitted, and the hearing shall be limited to whether or not compliance has been achieved and the assessment of penalties.
SJMC Section 1.14.060(E).
As set forth in detail below, the Property Owner did not request a hearing before the Director.
Therefore, this hearing is limited to whether or not compliance has been achieved and the assessment of penalties.
FACTS
A. Complaint Received
On April 17, 2023, Code Enforcement received a complaint alleging an unpermitted Pizza Restaurant operating from the subject property. Multiple unpermitted additions and structures were reported to be in the rear patio area and the business was operating past midnight without approvals from the Planning Department.
B. Pre-Compliance Order Investigation
On April 18, 2023, Code Enforcement Supervisor Donald Timoteo researched the Santa Clara County property ownership records and found that Masson Partners LLC is the legal owner of 163 W Santa Clara St. CA 95113 as shown on the latest property assessment roll. The Agent of Service was found to be Michael Messinger. The mailing address for the property was found to be 8 N San Pedro St, Suite 300 San Jose, CA 95110.
