Jail Terms for Hotel Owners in Villa Hotel Case
Two Miller brothers were sentenced to up to a year and a half in jail for defying a court order to close and tear down the Country Club Villa Hotel, with $500 fines on each count. They remain free on $5,000 bonds pending appeal. The 200-room hotel faced previous rulings condemning building and zoning violations and nuisance status for all-night revelry and nonconforming bar and pool operations amid neighborhood complaints. The judge urged the City Council to decide whether to enforce demolition to terminate zoning violations.
