Club PURE

From commissioner Jeff Rader, Oct 31, 2009: On October 30, the Georgia Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal by the owners of PURE nightclub of the recent decision in DeKalb Superior Court. The Supreme Court decision means that the location can no longer operate as a nightclub. Legislation approved last year that I sponsored prohibits nightclubs in the zoning district where PURE was located, and requires that the County Commission approve a Special Land Use Permit for any new business that serves alcohol and is open after 12:30 am.
