Robert Cox
Y 1'unella Appointed members to District III toured and mapped out the number of
alcohol outlets in the area, and their findings were discussed at the
trict4 general meeting. Based on their recommendations the Substance Abuse
Robbie Bush Advisory Board voted unanimously to recommend to the Community
Development'Department to deny the issuance of a liquor license to
•District Longs Drugs at Alamo. The grounds for this decision recommendation is
Delores Kessler that the number of alcohol outlets iia the community of Alamo clearly
establishes no'need or public convenience for an extra liquor license-in
