RE: Planning Case #: Has not been filed
Project Address: 541 S. Spring Street
Applicant: Downtown Restaurant Management
Dear Zoning Administrator:
At our regularly held public meeting on May 8, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Downtown Los Angeles Neighborhood Council (“DLANC”) voted to give general support for Royal Clayton’s British Pub, pursuant to the motion passed on April 17, 2012, by DLANC’s Planning & Land Use Committee (“PLUC”).
The original Royal Clayton’s was located on Industrial Street in the Arts District and was a beloved neighborhood restaurant. The restaurant closed in 2011 but DLANC is pleased to hear it will be re-opening in its new proposed location in the Spring Arcade building. The operator has proven to be a good neighbor and DLANC welcomes and supports the project and the CUB permit for a full line of alcohol in conjunction with the proposed gastro-pub the applicant will be seeking.
Thank you.
Very truly yours, Very truly yours,
