A nondescript beige building on Golfair Boulevard across the street from KIPP VOICE Academy is the future home of a package liquor store. But community leader Lydia Bell says it’s unwanted.
– People who live in the Golfair community are rallying against a liquor store set to open near their homes and a Jacksonville middle school. They now have hired a local attorney for help.
The dispute started in 2020 when the owner of the building, Gurpreet Singh, applied for an exemption to sell liquor in the building.During the hearing, Paul Harden, Singh’s attorney was quoted saying, “To thwart a citizen so as to deprive him of that ability and joy, the lawful use of his land, a miscarriage of justice has occurred.”Bell said she and others never got a notice in the mail about the hearing.
Bell and dozens of other homeowners held a rally in front of the future store in April. They have lived in the community for decades and want answers.
