Following up last week’s story about the possible conversion of the Bay Breeze seafood restaurant on Canton Road into a liquor store:
The applicant has withdrawn his request to appeal two denials of a retail liquor permit.
During a Cobb Board of Commissioners meeting Tuesday, Parks Huff, an attorney for restaurant owner Steve Constantinou, said his client wished to withdraw with prejudice.
That means that the case cannot come back up again. Huff did not explain why his client is withdrawing.
Commissioners were scheduled to hear the appeal on Tuesday, which followed months of attempts to get a liquor permit and after substantial community opposition.
The he Cobb Business License Division Manager and agency’s review board both turned down the application by BSC Packing LLC to operate a liquor store at the Bay Breeze site at 2418 Canton Road.
The 10,000–square-foot building is 177 feet from a residential property line. The county code allows denial of an alcoholic beverage license if a location is within 300 feet.
