A resident should not have to be present at all. A resident who is out of town for the weekend should not have their car towed. It is very hard to believe Mr. Adelman is trying to help the neighborhood or his neighbors. Mr. Adelman has sewn strife and paranoia in the neighborhood, harmed the character of the neighborhood, and hassled his own neighbors more than the bar patrons. Many people moved to the Lower Greenville area because of its unique character, much of which is owed to the presence of restaurants and bars.
Bars are legal and legitimate businesses that are a defining characteristic of our neighborhood.
St. Patrick's Day is a legitimate festivity that brings both charm and money into the neighborhood. St. Patrick's Days of the past have hardly effected the residents of Lower Greenville at all. Unfortunately, not so this year. I urge the residents of Lower Greenville to contact their city officials, neighborhood organizations, and the police department and demand that St. Patrick's Day fiasco not be repeated next year. Lower Greenville is our neighborhood.
