Minutes note: 04 LIESKE, Gary L Class B Tavern, Food Dealer, and Public Entertainment Premises License Renewal Applications for "GARE-BEAR'S" at 927 N 27TH St. (Expires 7/6/2021) The applicant stated most of this stuff is happening from the sidewalk and everyone has guns now. He added that everyone has been cooperative, he now has security 7 days a week, and he also closes earlier. He stated that he's at the end of his time and he's ready to sell. He added that he just wants to continue his business until he can sell it, and he's trying to make it all work. He stated that he's been there for 38 years and drugs and prostitution has always been an issue. He added that they moved the people across the street so now they're Wendy's problem, but it doesn't cure the issues on 27th St. He stated that his bartenders spend more time on the sidewalk than they do selling drinks. He added that the park has always been an issue with people having barbeques, sleeping, and washing their behinds with the water tank. He stated that Family Dollar has poor management and that's not his problem. He added that he is trying to cooperate with the neighborhood. Individual also present: Ald. Bauman stated he is concerned about the neighborhood park because the City asked Neighborhood House to manage the park and it has now become a negative experience instead of an amenity for families and children. He added that the goal has been eviscerated because of the people loitering, smoking, and bathing in the public space. He stated that not all of the disorder is associated with the premises, but a large portion is and has been for some time. He added that there is a significant police record, including a homicide 2 cycles ago, and he doesn't think it should be tolerated anymore. He stated that there were 2 hearings for Family Dollar across street, in which their main defense was that all of the problems were coming from tavern. He added that the applicant stated this is a City problem and Wendy's problem not his. He stated that there are other businesses in the area that don't have these problems and they don't serve liquor. He recommends nonrenewal based on the applicants comments about how these nuisance activities aren't his problem. Individuals present in opposition: Gale Johnson 426 N 35th St stated they're trying to build the neighborhood up and there's too many places to buy liquor. She added that her neighborhood needs to stay safe and there are more people in the streets. She stated that there is too much stuff going on to have a neighborhood bar, like drug activity and prostitution. Keith Stanley Near West Side Partners stated there have been challenges with the premises and other organizations in the neighborhood have struggled with the problems caused by the premises. He added that there are issues with loitering and he hopes it will be better next year. He stated that when there are new owners he hopes to work with them. He added that there are issues with the premises and he wants to make sure there's a plan to address the issues and make improvements. Jeff Martinka Neighborhood House stated the patrons congregate on 27th St in front of the bar drinking and smoking, so it is hard to have the garden park as an amenity for residents. He added that he has talked with the applicant and his staff and he would like the employees to better police their patrons. He stated that they had to start locking the park because of the behaviors of the patrons. He added that they spent $45,000 to improve the park for residents. He stated that they used to have benches, tables, and a water collection system that had to be removed because they were being misused. He added that he would like the patrons to stay inside the bar and should leave their containers inside the bar instead of littering on the street. He stated that not everyone causing problems in the park are patrons of the premises, but some of them are patrons. Ald. Kovac moved nonrenewal based on the police report, and applicant, neighborhood, and aldermanic testimony. (Prevailed 3-1, Ald. Coggs voting no)
