toxicating liquors are to be sold and
entertainment provided for the

hereby stranuously object to the
licensing, operation and mainten-
ance of the said North Shore Club
for the following reasons:
1. That the said neighborhood in
question is inhabited by residents of
good character and is a pleasant
residential area. That the licensing
Of such a club at its present location
would only continue the annoyance
caused in the past several months
during which time the said club has
operated without a license or ap-
proval of any governing body.
2. That the operation, and main
tenance of such a club is and would
continue to be detrimental to the
residential value of the property in
this area.
3. That the restriction in the
Riverbank Subdivision contains a
clause prohibiting the sale or manu-
facture of intoxicating liquors in
said subdivision, and that the grant,
ing Of license to operate this club
would only place this governing
body on record as approving the
violation of a restriction for peace
full enjoyment of property.
T. That. although your petitioners
do not question the integrity or
character of any individual member
Of the said North Shore Club, the
present character of the club as an
organization is strictly for the pur-
pose of entertainment and relaxa-
ton of the members. aided and
abetted by liquors; music, etc. That
the continuance of this club IS high
ly undesirable due to the sounds of
music, traffic noises, letc. at late
hours when residents in the area
have retired for the night, and fur
ther that your petitioners object to
the use and sale Of intoxicating
liquors in this particular location
due to the traffic hazards to chill
dren in the area.
WHEREFORE your petitioners
respectfully request this Honorable
Mayor and Council of the City of
Wyandotte to refuse a license to
operate the said North Shore Club
or any similar institution under
any guise or name at 425 Biddle

dotte aforesaid. and that the said
Honorable Mayor and Council cause
