Youth Dance Club

South Seminole Heights President Gary Ellsworth sent its residents an email today about a Youth Dance Club that opened up tonight at Martin Luther King and Highland.

The email noted that: The business will operate as a juvenile dance hall and has been permitted by the Chief of Police, Fire Department and Zoning. It will be open Wednesday and Saturday nights from 8 P.M. until midnight. Their opening night is scheduled for this Thursday 5/26. They will have 4 uniformed TPD officers on premises during operation. The club will admit children ages 12-17.

South Seminole Heights seems to be pretty much on top of this and "will monitor this situation very closely". They have concerns about noise, loitering, littering and vandalism. The email further notes that " if you live in the area and experience any problems, it is strongly recommend calling the police immediately to report any incidents. " The Police Non Emergency Line is 231-6130.

The locations seems to have had a number of clubs and restaurants cycled through it. Lets see what happens.
