From: Nicholas Abbott [abbott@engr.wisc.edu] Sent: Thursday, September 16, 2010 9:21 PM To: licensing Subject: 1935 Monroe Street I write regarding the proposal to locate a liquor store at 1935 Monroe St. Given that Trader Joes sells alcohol, that Barriques sells alcohol, and that there is yet another vendor of liquor nearby on Regent Street, I am wondering why on earth we would need another liquor store in our neighborhood. Given the existing liquor shops nearby and the persistent public problems of alcohol abuse by students from nearby Edgewood, I strongly oppose the issuance of a license. Please acknowledge receipt.
