Meeting to Oppose Night Club at Bellaire/Fondren
As you may know, we believe that the former Gillman property at Bellaire and Fondren has been sold to owners who intend to relocate the troublesome Carnaval Night Club to that location. Carnaval is currently located at 59 and Gessner in the old K-Mart. Carnaval has applied for the renewal of its liquor license at its current location. That renewal has been delayed because of community opposition, subject to a hearing which has not yet been scheduled. I am still trying to confirm details of this transaction, but, needless to say, an expanded Carnaval at that location is not in the best interest of our area. Council Member M.J. Khan has arranged a community meeting to discuss this problem and organize to oppose these plans. The meeting will be tomorrow, Saturday 10/29 at 11:00 am at the Lansdale Park Community Center, 8201 Roos, just off Mary Bates. Please know that this is not a "not in my backyard" issue. Rather, this club has been a source of continual problems for the nearby neighborhood and has been cited for severe overcrowding which could endanger the lives of those who attend. Its continued operation in such a manner at its present location is not acceptable - much less a move to a new location with additional exposure to residential areas.
