Liquor license within 300 feet of Howe Elementary
Summary
The gas station at 510 S Monroe Ave wanted to add intoxicating liquor sales, but state law bars licenses within 300 feet of a school unless waived. The committee refused the waiver, citing complaints from Howe parents and teachers about litter and alcohol-related issues near the school and a nearby park frequented by homeless residents.
