In a brief special meeting the City Council voted five to zero to object to a planned East State Street carryout liquor permit. The objection cites residential zoning conflict and comes after the Zoning Appeals Board denied a variance to convert a Shell station into a self service gas station and convenience store. A church group also voiced objections as the council fears its stance may be late for formal action but could influence the liquor control board decision.
