SOL Cocina Patio Expansion
Description
Permanent retention of the 641-square-foot detached waterfront patio, expansion of the alcohol license to it, and continued off-site parking at Balboa Marina — approved with noise conditions tightened to 10 p.m. door closure and 8 p.m. awning.
Impact summary
The restaurant keeps its bayside patio for good with hours to 10 p.m. on the detached patio and midnight inside, but neighbors get firmer noise cut-offs than before.
