COUNCIL MEETING REPORT

The police report stated that the officer responding to the complaint heard nothing, and in both reports it was a CC complaint, but it had to have come from someone living directly behind Crickets. [SEE PREVIOUS POST WITH LINK TO THE LEGISLATION ALONG WITH POLICE REPORTS]

[PD]

Crickets has no citations against them for loud music
Crickets is getting a catch basin to remedy the flooding issues that were caused
Crickets is enclosing the patio to help with the noise
All,of these things cost a lot money
All of these things are on hold until this is resolved
Bottom line, if they lose the license they will have to close
Another vacant building or a bar that could be much worse
Maybe the Handle Bar could move in there

What are you saying Jay ... that anyone who doesn't decorate the outside of their homes  must not have the Christmas Spirit? How many homes on the West Side have the outside of their homes all lit up for Christmas?
The spirit of Christmas is not in showey decorations but in what is in the hearts of those who dwell within.
I'm absolutely certain that Joseph didn't spend weeks decorating the stable for Christmas, or that our Blessed Lord and Saviour will not judge us on how gaudy we make our house every Christmas.
Jesus told us that outward appearances have no count with Him, it's what's in our hearts, and what we do "in secret" that what matters with Him.
How many of the people that have their houses all lit up have taken the time to reach out to an orphen child, or gave so much as a crum of bread to an elderly widow?
Putting a few pennies in the Salvation Army Kettle are meaningless if dollars have been spent on decorations for the outside of your house. Those are wasted dollars that will help  no one.

I drove past Crickets last night.  The establishment was all decorated with lights for the holiday (unlike the rest of the neighborhood).

[PD]

Just to be clear
The resolution put up by John Swierz tonight is to deny Crickets their liquor License renewal for next year
This has nothing to do with entertainment venues

CRICKETS has arranged for shuttles to take supporters to the City Council meeting. Anyone interested in going should be at CRICKETS at 3:30 PM.

Jay, you might want to take this document with you to the City Council meeting.

Some of the patrons of Crickets will be attending a council meeting for the first time.   Perhaps the experience will inspire one of them to run for city council.

The complaint about Crickets IS NOT because they are doing anything illegal, but is because of the noise of their outside events. They are in a primarily residential location and not everyone appreciates loud music when they are trying to sleep. If they would keep their music inside there would not be any complaints. Even the 7th Ward Councilman is supportive of the action.

Anyone living in the East Midlothian area should attend the Youngstown City Council meeting tonight at 5:30 p.m. Council is supposed to vote on a resolution affecting Crickets live entertainment practices.
