Title
Substitute motion relating to the revocation of the Class "B" Tavern  and Tavern Amusement Cabaret (Nite Club) licenses for the premises at 618-24 N. Broadway ("Jungle").
Analysis
This substitute motion approves the recommendation of the Licenses Committee for the 90-day suspension of the Class "B" Tavern and Tavern Amusement Cabaret (Nite Club) license of the premises located at 618-24 N. Broadway ("Jungle")  in the 4th Aldermanic District of the City of Milwaukee.
Body
Whereas, The Licenses Committee held a hearing on June 23, 2006 relative to the  revocation of the Class "B" Tavern and Tavern Amusement Cabaret (Nite Club) license of the premises located at 618-24 N. Broadway ("Jungle"); and
 
Whereas, After hearing testimony presented at the committee hearing, the committee found that the evidence provided by the objecting neighbor and the Milwaukee Police Department did not support revocation of the license, but it did support a 90-day suspension; and
 
Whereas, The Licenses Committee approved a 90-day suspension of the license on June 23, 2006 by a vote of three (3) ayes and one (1) noes; now, therefore, be it
 
Resolved, That the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee hereby accepts the recommendation of the Licenses Committee for 90-day suspension of the Class "B" Tavern and Tavern Amusement Cabaret (Nite Club) license of the premises located at 618-24 N. Broadway ("Jungle").
