The applicant stated he fired his old security staff and manager. He stated that for #19 in the police report there's another bar on the street, so he doesn't know how it was determined the music was coming from the premises. He added that his manager gave the complainant his phone number in case of further issues. He stated that he was under the impression that his manger's had their bartender licenses and that he thought because Mr. Harris was a registered owner that he didn't need a bartender's license. He stated he wanted to hire Mr. Starks back because he had no issues when Mr. Stark was managing. He stated he conducted background checks and hired a whole new security staff in April. He stated the previous security was being insubordinate and not following the rules. He added that they instituted a "no punch" policy and purchased a new ID scanner to identify problem patrons. He stated that current security guards are employees of the premises.

He stated the nuisance property designation is a discretionary process by MPD. He stated there have been issues at the premises. He stated there are 13 items on the police report; 1 was a commendation, 2 were communications with MPD, 1 was a personal matter, and 1 was a DOR check. He stated one of the incidents was a noise complaint that was handled. He added 3 items were from July 2nd and 2 were from December 2nd. He stated 1 of the July items was the premises reaching out to MPD for help. He stated when the police told them about the intoxicated patron the premises acted responsibly and removed the patron. He added that the incident with the parking lot, the premises was the only one who responded to deal with people in the parking lot. He stated one of the December incidents could have been handled better. He stated there were no issues when they first opened in July 2013 and they have had three years of no issues. He stated there were some noise issues that were addressed. He stated the applicant rehired Mr. Starks to address the issues.

He stated that MPD has had several meetings with the premises to keep them on track. He stated the premises has followed their plan of operation filed with MPD.
