♦ In probably the zaniest and longest lasting parade (over an hour) of well gathered evidence by NIMBYs in Salisbury or anywhere, the local NIMBY’s urinated on the Firehouse Brew Pit Special Use Permit (SUP). If Todd Littleton felt the deck was stacked yesterday–it was. Overwhelmingly so.
In honor of the single most display of evidence by a well organized group of NIMBYs anywhere, the Rowan Free Press will air this historic city council video segment as soon as its available.
(Editor’s note: Let me say this on Todd Littleton’s behalf and on the behalf of “Bench Warmers” AKA “Club Tyvek”. “Bench Warmers” is Salisbury’s number one “drinking bar”. They don’t water down their drinks and the service is rapid. They top off drinks to lip of the glass. The atmosphere of “Bench Warmers” is friendly, hail, and hardy. It was my favorite watering hole in all of Salisbury. EZ comradeship. Lots of hardcore sports talk. It felt like a Philly bar. I saw their bartenders and management “88” folks if they appeared to hit their limit. In all my visits to “Bench Warmers” I never saw anyone murdered there.)
The NIMBYs, mostly all from the neighboring “Firehouse Lofts Membership Association” were under the leadership of Judy Kandl. She trotted out person after person in their well-evidenced assault on the Firehouse Brew Pit’s safety concerns. They were convincing about the public urination, defecation, fights, unleashed dogs, loud talking, hollering, letters from the Salisbury Police, public sex acts, foul language, vomiting, and Brew Pit customers passed out on the concrete. Nightly loud disturbances.
In any event we will show the video when it is available.
