This Premises is located in close proximity to residential units. There are concerns related to noise, litter, safety, and other potential disturbances to residents in the area. If conditions are put in place, these concerns may be mitigated. Under no circumstance should the establishment be granted a liquor sales license without conditions attached. This matter is considered urgent as the deadline for objections is March 29, 2024.
