Here’s a video we shot after CB6’s land-use/landmarks committee made a motion to recommend that the State Liquor Authority deny Union Hall’s liquor license renewal. The first speaker is Lou Sones, who introduced the motion. The second speaker, another committee member, talks about his misgivings over the motion.

  1. Floyd is owned by the people who own Union Hall. Sones owns the Brazen Head, which is one of Floyd’s competitors. So Sones is trying to get his direct competition’s sister bar shut down.

    Hm.

  2. The first speaker is wrong. Union Hall is in a commercially zoned area – it’s not like they’re running an illegal speakeasy out of their living room on a residential street. Watching this video, I feel like only one side of an argument was heard last night. And that side appears to be biased and if I’m not mistaken, also appears to have a HUGE conflict of interest.
