Ms. Cetina says that she and her husband had plans to open a business, but the City rejected their plans. Mr. Cetina says that he offered to sell the land to Mr. Tsitiridis for 250,000 dollars but the offer was rejected.
Ms. Cetina says that the business that she and her husband wanted to open was a nightclub. Ald. Witkowiak says that the neighbors testified that they did not want another full nightclub in the area, so the Cetinas were denied a license, although they had previously been granted a liquor license but they had allowed it to expire.
