The City Council voted April 10 to deny a request from Nilesh Patel for a three-month extension of a certificate of compliance for 2479 Nashville Highway.
Staff explained the applicant had been awarded a liquor license about a year earlier but had not started construction required by the city ordinance. City attorney/counsel and Development Services staff recommended denying the extension because inspections and evidence indicated no work had begun. “He hasn't had any construction on his building yet,” counsel said in the meeting summary.
Mayor (name not specified) moved to deny the extension; the motion was seconded and the clerk recorded the vote as carried. The council noted that denying the extension could allow another applicant to submit for that certificate once the process reopens.
Ending: Staff will notify the applicant and continue to follow the city’s certificate and licensing procedures.
