Hey Venus, oh Venus, make my wish come true

What's worse?  The obnoxious sign or the fact they are trying to
pull one over on the city?

I want what I want when I want it and there are city board members as well as commissioners who allow it all to happen.

On April 3, 2012, the Venus Cafe got its proximity waiver for a 2COP license...they just had to have it in order to help their business be successful.  The owner spoke before the commission.  Loretta Sharpe, former member of the Historical Resource Preservation board,  spoke before the commission as well, advocating for the owner.  Well, why not?  Everyone gets waivers in this city when it comes to alcohol.  Soon after the commission voted it in, the owner "temporarily" closed it for ...?  Nearly two years later, it is still closed.

  2. Nothing has happened here in nearly 2 years. Someone parks a van there and they mow the weeds from time to time.

  4. Temporary is something lasting for a very short time, not nearly two years. What is going on here? Is it in foreclosure? Were the hotdogs no good? Not enough immigrants buying beer?

  5. The comment at 1:44 was deleted because of its mean-spiritedness.

  6. Who on staff approved the mechanical equipment on the roof? On our major entry road, anything goes in this town if you have the right backers!
