The Beatrice Inn Lives On

[cpnews]

The Observer went right to the State Liquor Authority to discover that despite community protests, the Beatrice Inn has had it liquor license renewed. Unless a violation occurs, the Beatrice Inn have its doors open until at least August 31, 2010. Why did the SLA approve when the local Community Board gave a negative recommendation? It turns out that the Beatrice has not violated the terms of its license, which is a prerequisite for nixing a renewal. Go figure. It's nice to know that the SLA is considering the manner in which a business operates as the basis for license approval, rather than its neighbors opinions of said business.
