He added that MPD Code Red can meet with the applicant to review their security plan. He added that there are no police reports and no communications from the neighbors since April. He stated that a 30 day suspension is harsh given the circumstances and he would like a warning letter. He stated that he will provide a copy of the updated plan of operation to the Committee, the neighbors, Ald. Bauman, and MPD.
Michael Fierstence 1680 A N Franklin Pl stated that neighbors are contacting MPD and city officials instead of the premises directly, so they're not always aware of issues.
Chris Vrakas 336 N Milwaukee St stated they want to be proactive and fix the issues that are happening. He stated that he didn't think $1 bomb night was the issue. He stated that maybe they can increase security from 8 to 10 guards. He added that they added more sound proofing, changed some security measures, and created a list of banned patrons. He added that people will enter and exit on Buffalo St. He stated that they're open to hiring off-duty MPD officers.
Individual also present:
Ald. Bauman stated there should not be this level of disorder on a Tuesday night. He stated there has been compelling testimony and Tuesday nights are outrageous. He recommends nonrenewal unless Tuesday night ends at 11 PM or 12 AM. He stated that that level of noise is on school night is unacceptable. He stated that it is not MPD's job to police the premises and their patrons. He added that a 30 day suspension is in order based on the compelling testimony and having the same discussion last year with the same assurances and that things are getting worse, not better. He stated this is an escalating problem.
Individuals present in opposition:
Mike Guertin 234 N Broadway St #403 stated he moved in in March and has been consistently woken up between 11 PM and 2 AM on Tuesday nights in to Wednesday mornings.

Robin Thompson 234 N Broadway St #416 stated people hangout in their cars in the alley before they go in to the premises. She stated there are after parties going on after bar close in the neighborhood and it's completely unacceptable. She added that the residents aren't the ones creating the problems, it's the patrons.

She stated that the applicant told her they would have 8 security guards patrolling on Tuesday nights and she has not seen any.
Sheldon Garrison 234 N Broadway St #405 stated he's worked with the applicant in the past to try and address some of the issues. He stated the noise on Tuesday is awful and out of control.

He added that people smoke outside in the front of the premises and should be moved to the alley. He stated the premises is operating different from the original business plan submitted.
