LICENSES COMMITTEE
| AMENDED
Minutes note: 05 LAKRITZ, Glenn H, Agent for "Neighborhood Pawn LLC", Pawnbroker's License Application for "Neighborhood Pawn & Resale" at 5424-26 N Lovers Lane Rd.
Atty. Brian Randall appearing with the applicant. The applicant has agreed not to do any transactions with guns or involving out of state IDs. The applicant has met with community liaison officers and attended one neighborhood meeting. He states that if a stolen item were to be taken in by a licensee, the licensee would be the entity assuming the loss, so it is not in his interest to accept stolen items. He states the applicant meets the municipal requirements and has submitted a plan of operation that meets ordinance requirements. He has also met zoning requirements and there is not an overconcentration of pawn shops in the area.
Ald. Bohl present at the table. He states that the area has one of the highest concentrations of crime in the city. There are issues with panhandling, prostitution, and drugs in the area. Six additional individuals were at the previous meeting raising concerns about the application. He states he believes crime will increase if the business is opened. Neighbors at community meetings in the area have primarily voted in opposition to the business.
Individuals appearing in opposition:
Larry Gonzales 10517 W Rohr Ave - He is a member of the local block watch and neighborhood association. He states that crime is already an issue in the neighborhood. There was a recent robbery one half to three quarters of a mile away from the establishment. He has witnessed panhandlers in Timmerman Plaza nearby.
Lena Chaudhry - 5253 N Lovers Lane Rd - She states that she lives about half a block away from the proposed establishment. She states crime is already an issue in the area and a business that increases the number of people carrying cash would increase the problems. She has been accosted in Timmerman Plaza.
Haftab Chaudhry - 5253 N Lovers Lane Rd - He agrees with the previous speaker. He has witnessed police cars heading towards fast food restaurants and a hotel in the area. He has seen people being arrested and an individual being accosted in the area.
Individual appearing in support:
Marcus Wilkes - 3925 N 60th St - He states he has used pawn shops for years and thinks they are always a good new business. Pawn shops can be used by people who need help supporting their families. The applicant has shown him how to successfully open a business. He has gone to a pawnshop 30-40 times in his lifetime and has not had any bad experiences.
Ald. Puente moved to make a letter from Atty. Randall part of the record - exhibit #1. (Prevailed 5-0)
Ald. Coggs moved to make the Board of Zoning Appeals document part of the record - exhibit #2. (Prevailed 5-0)

Appearing with the applicant:
Atty. Michael J Whitcomb - Underage individuals used fake IDs which were not detected by the establishment's scanner to gain access to the establishment. The applicants contacted him immediately following the September 2013 underage incident to determine a way to improve their operations. They then met with the police to discuss how to prevent underage individuals from entering the establishment. The police department will keep the applicant updated with a book showing the new types of fake IDs that are circulating. They've purchased a scanner that captures information to verify which IDs have been checked. On May 3, 2014, a waitress who served an underage individual was filling in behind the bar and didn't realize that IDs had not been checked at the door during the transition from food to bar service. She has since been trained properly. The bartender who poured alcohol into a patron's mouth has been reprimanded. The applicant and Mr. Mellon will give the objector their cell phone numbers in case noise is an issue in the future. The applicant has spoken with management of the neighboring residential building to be proactive about complaints. He states the business is an active member of the community. Noise may be coming from other establishments in the area as well.
Shawn Mellon - 1710 N Commerce - The security guard was told not to engage with the person with a hammer on July 28, 2013, as security personnel are to avoid individuals with weapons.
Ald Bauman present at the table. He is concerned with the pattern of issues with noise and underage incidents on the police report. There is a consistent pattern of poor management. He states the noise emanating from the establishment has a strong negative impact on the growth of the neighborhood. Individuals should be able to move downtown without having to hear noise in their homes.
Individual appearing in
Jacklyn Bercheck - 1141 N Old World Third St - She states the business is disrespectful of neighbors when it comes to noise issues. She has moved from the 9th floor to the 27th floor in her building in attempt to avoid the noise. She has heard music noise between the hours of 12 am and 2 am. She attributes noise to this specific establishment because she contacted the police and the noise was turned down after they investigated the report. She has attempted to contact the establishment via telephone to discuss issues and could not reach anyone. She was aware of neighboring businesses when she moved to the building, but did not anticipate being able to hear music from the establishment. She states she hears noise through her walls every weekend. Now that she has moved, the noise is muffled.
Ald. Stamper moved approval with a 30 day suspension based on the police report and neighborhood testimony. (Prevailed 3-1-1, Ald. Puente voted no, Ald. Coggs abstained) | Pass | 3:1 |

Assistant City Atty Nick Desiato
Ald. Hamilton - He has encouraged the applicant to work with neighbors to solve parking issues. He states the age restriction will help set a different tone than the past business had. Restaurants and smaller businesses in the area had benefitted from the business.
Individual appearing in opposition:
William English - 5273 N 33rd St - Block Watch Captain - He states that there were serious issues with quality of life when the Onyx was open. There were shootings in April of last year and neighbors had to work with police to help with the incident.

Since the business closed they have not had to call police for cruising, loud noise, or shootings.
Individuals appearing in support:
Richard Lucas - 544 E Ogden - He has had conversations about security plans with Mr. Jones and Mr. Obi. He will be running security at the establishment and will have armed guards at the front and back doors and two outside. He has suggested staggering the closing time to get people out in groups and meeting with neighbors once a month to address concerns. He has received awards for fighting crime and has experience working with the police department. All security decisions will be made through Mr. Jones, but he will not risk his reputation for one establishment.
Pastor Sandra Renfroe - 3328 W Villard Ave - President of BID 19 - She states the board's opinion is that Onyx isn't an issue. The neighborhood has had more crime since the business closed.

Minutes note: 07 JEWELL, Sherlise A, Agent for "SRJEWELL ENTERTAINMENT LLC", Class B Tavern and Public Entertainment Premises License Renewal Applications for "42nd Street Bar & Grill" at 4200 W BURLEIGH St. (Expires 9/15/2014)
Appearing with the applicant:
Atty. Patrick Brennan - He states that on the June 20, 2013 incident, an individual showed up at closing time and ran over cones. Security personnel confronted the individual and told him to leave. He states no one associated with the business, including Justin North, pointed a weapon at the individual. No tavern violation tickets were issued. On August 6, 2013, the only connection between the incident and the establishment is that the charged individual was an employee of the establishment. The employee, Harold Jewell, has been terminated. The incident is pending circuit court prosecution, but no tavern violation tickets were issued. On March 22, 2014 someone fired shots from outside into the bar. Someone in the bar fired back. Mr. Jewell was on site and cooperative with police. Police were unable to determine who fired shots from security footage. Shooting from the inside of the establishment should not have happened and will not happen again. Based on recommendations from the police department, the business now wands all patrons, whereas they previously did some wanding and some pat-downs. He states the applicant and her husband are committed to the neighborhood and are involved with community outreach. They have been cooperative with police.
Rickey Jewell - 6546 N 55th St - Harold Jewell is the brother of Ricky Jewell. He had access to the upstairs of the establishment at the time of the incident on August 6, 2013.
Ald. Wade present at the table. He has only gotten one call about the business since the business began operating. None of the incidents on the police report resulted in tickets being issued to the bar.
Ald. Stamper moved approval with a 10 day suspension, based on the police report, excluding item 25 to be considered later. (Failed 2-3, Ald. Dudzik, Ald. Puente, and Ald. Zielinski voted no)
Ald. Puente moved approval with a 30 day suspension, based on the police report, excluding item 25 to be considered later. (Prevailed 3-2, Ald. Coggs and Ald. Dudzik voted no)
