Could someone clarify WHY live music has become an issue NOW for TV after all these years?

My guess, not knowing any more than what's linked? New neighbors. The same sort of fools that move next door to an airport that's been there for 60 years and then complain about airplane noise.

How did things go at the meeting?
Trying to find information online & coming up with no updates.

Here is an article that summarizes the issues from the hearing.

Facebook reports that the City voted to table the ordinance amendment that would have affected Trader Vic's. The council motioned to defer any further action until it has reviewed the situation by personally attending events and monitoring sound levels for themselves.

Hopefully they will have a few cocktails too!

We should all chip in for a free drink for the Emeryville City Council at Trader Vic's. When they get there, the first one is on Tiki Central (its not bribery).
