Ms. Elsie Glickert, 6712 Etzel Ms. Glickert stated that she was not clear on this subject, which was discussed earlier. She said the alley belongs to University City and there was no park in her neighborhood. She said years earlier, she requested to merge the two properties on both sides of the alley, but a previous City Manager declined it. She questioned why they want the alley, what would happen to the properties located north of this project, refuge access and payment concerns? Introduced by Mr. Price 4. BILL 9175 – An ordinance vacating a tract of land being all of a walk way of block 1 of North Parkview, per plat recorded in Plat Book 11 Page 4 of St. Louis County Recorder’s office. Introduced by Ms. Carr 5. Bill 9176 – An ordinance approving a final development plan for a mixed-use development known as the “Washington University in St. Louis Loop Student Living Initiative” located in the PD-M, Planned Development Mixed-Use zoning district which includes a resubdivision of a tract of land to be known as North Parkview resubdivision of Lots 1 thru 9 and Lots 25 thru 45 of Block 1 and Lots 1, 2, 3, 13 and 14 of Block 6 of North Parkview Subdivision (City of University City portion only). O. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION Mr. Edward McCarthy, 7101 Princeton Avenue Mr. McCarthy stated that he wanted to thank the City Council for honoring Mr. Richard Dockett. Ms. Elsie Glickert, 6712 Etzel Ms. Glickert stated that she hoped that the liquor license regarding quick shops was not under consideration. She said if Council decided to modify the liquor licenses, they should first drive north on Union Boulevard and Goodfellow into the Walnut Park area because every little vacant store has become a quick shop and a liquor store and the citizens do not want that image in University City. She said previous Councils have worked long and hard for University City style of liquor licensing and it has benefited our community because you must be a full drug store or fully developed grocery store with fresh meats and vegetable to obtain a liquor license. On another subject, Ms. Glickert asked if the City collected the money it was due regarding the Loop Trolley Declaratory Judgment of over $8,000. Ms. Donna Marin Ms. Marin stood in support of Ms. Glickert’s statement regarding the liquor license at quick shops. She said she lived north of Olive and the neighborhood gets a little shaky at times. Se and the neighbors clean up a lot of 40-ounce liquor cans on lawns and in the streets plus having a lot of foot traffic at night. She said many of the night traffic were inebriated and caused disturbances by singing and urinating on the street and trees. Ms. Marin felt by expanding the liquor license parameters in University City was not a good idea. 11
