26 Council Meeting July 13, 1981 Mr. Seccombe said there was a little bit of heated discussion because it soulnded like a bunch of harrasment two years of non - inspection of the place and all of a sudden somebody told somebody to get an inspec- tor down ther to take a look at the place before the meeting on Monday. Two years prior we haven't been inspected - the insepctor told us that and he said he's willing to show the things, that the last time he was there, three years ago, he'd made a report and none of the things were tanen care of - we were unaware of that - we asked him to funish us with those reports if possible - so we can take a look. Mayor Gourley felt that there had been an inspector there last year during the time Mitra Morris was in there. Mayor Gourley said that if this were me and an employee of mine was giving an inspector and a Police Officer that kind of trouble, I think I'd be a lettle bit concerned. I understan you own 99% of the corpor- ation and you allow an employee to stand and give that kind of trouble to a duly authorized law enforcement officer who has the right to come in there and inspect at any time. Do you give that kind of trouble to our Police Officers when they do a walk through? Mr. Seccombe said, NO. Mayor Gourley - Are you the owner of the bar? Mr. Seccombe, Yes. Mayor Gourley said - looking through some of the ICR reports he would like to note a couple of them for the record; 6 -22 -80 - 6 vehicles were left in the parking lot and the Police Officer walked through the bar and flund 6 people sitting around with the manager - 4 worked there, but two others were customers, and he had advised them at that the bar should have been emptied by 12:30. Mr. Seccombe said, Just for your information, we were'nt there, we took over in September. Mayor Gourley said he still wasn't sure that he had taken over in September because we have it from our last meeting that your business manager, by his own testimony was in the bar in July. Mr. Seccombesaid he might have been out there looking over the place. Mayor Gourley said he told ys he was out ther to help out Mitra Morris. Mr. Seccombe said we didn't buy it until September. Mayor Gourley - 7 -16 -80 - nine people in the Woodshed Bar at an alleged employee meeting - Mr. Seccombe - we still weren't there. Mayor Gourley - Aug. of 1980, I know that Mr. Pestello was manageing the place at that time. Mr. Seccombe - if you get the minutes and find out exactly - because we wern't there. Mr. Jaworski said the minutes did not indicate the exact that Mr. Pestello came there but in recalling, Mr. Pestello had stated that he had been there for some time. Mr. Seccombe agreed that he (Mr. Pestello) might have been there for some time be he had not bought the bar until September. Mayor Gourley said he thought there was a time when Mr. Seccombe only owned 50% of this bar and someone else owned the other 400. Mr. Seccombe said that was Mr. Schaum. Mr. Schlosser owned 1%. Mayor Gourley asked if Mr. Seccombe owned the bar on Sept. 15th and Mr. Seccombe said he night have. Mayor Gourley said on Sept. 15th there were persons in the bar after hours - Sept. 23rd - fight in the bar, dispersed crowd in the parking lot - no tags issued; Sept 25th - tag written for not having a bouncer; Sept. 30th - same tag, sorry; Dec. 27th junk cars in lot - called and had removed; Dec. 31st - terroist threats against bartender - fight at bar; Jan. 2nd - property damage accident in lot; 1 -10 - Mayor Gourley asked what happened - Mr. Seccombe said someone was causing trouble in the bar and they threw him 1
