Fight Over North Park Bar Spills Into the Streets
These planning commissioners seem to be in the hip pocket of Sander's business interests. 6 months ago a convenience store was moving in PB in the worst census tract for alcohol crime in the city where there are already 65 alcohol licenses where only 10 are allowed and where DUIs are 4 times more than any other community in the city. The "convenience store" needed a conditional use permit to sell alcohol. The community wanted two conditions. 1 - no alcohol sales after midnight and 2 only 10% of the shelf space devoted to alcohol. The commissioners denied an appeal for those two conditions. Now the "convenience store" is filled to the brim with alcohol and sells it to 2 am in PB business district where drunk in public is a daily occurance. These planning commissioners don't know their responsibility to public safety. They need to be shamed.— March 13, 2011 6:46 p.m.
