The Metro Gardens Neighborhood Association Brentwood said they have been fighting for a while to not have the liquor store in their community.
“I don’t see how the Department of firearms department of Alcohol and Firearms would give approval for transfer of that license close to the school,” one community member said.“My idea is to how do we have them open up and how do we do this in a way where we’re not hurting the business owner.”Mayoral candidate Donna Deegan was also in attendance to hear the communities concerns. ,
The prevalence of liquor stores are a detriment to the quality of life, our culture, our families and neighborhoods. They can’t build grocery stores to empower our neighborhoods. However, they have no problems at all with building Liquor stores in our food deserts and near schoolsAbout the Author:
