Council rescinds beer permit after church distance dispute
The city council voided its Monday approval of Thomas G. Haddy s class B beer permit for 827 829 Ninth Street SE after police figures showed the tavern was only 187 feet from Mount Zion Baptist Church rear door, below the required 300 feet.
