2 AM Bar Closing Time Issue A Message From the President The MHRA Land Use Committee, along with several Executive Board members and other neighborhood residents, have been closely engaged in the proposal to open a 7–Eleven store at the corner of West Street and Lafayette Avenue. We have been especially concerned about the proposal to operate both a convenience store and gas pumps 24/7. Please see the related article on page 2. Thanks goes to Denise Worthen for keeping the neighborhood informed of what is going on with development related issues. We have also been actively involved with the whole 2:00 AM liquor license debate. Not only are several Murray Hill residents serving on the City Councilappointed Citizen Committee for the Review of Alcoholic Beverage Licenses (CCRABL) but the chair of the committee is Whitney Chellis, a past MHRA vice president Board and Lafayette Avenue resident. The CCRABL Committee will make its final recommendations in July after holding regular monthly meetings, as well as a public hearing on April 29 on the whole liquor license process and review in the City. Murray Hill was well represented at this public hearing with the first three speakers being members of MHRA. Please join me and your neighbors at the last General membership meeting before we break for the summer. This meeting will be on Wednesday, June 9 at 7:30 at Maryland Hall. Our guest speaker will be Dr. Wilford Scott, chair of the Arts and En te rtainment Distr ic t Commission. The district includes nearly all of Inner West Street and borders our community. Learn more about what this district is all about and what benefits it has as an economic development tool. Dirk Geratz |
