LETTER: Shut down the bar

15

Dear Editor.

Please allow me to voice my disgust once again concerning The so-called ” 13 bar/restaurant’ in Browns Avenue.

We have been making appeals for the authorities to take action and shut this establishment down because it is a nuisance and disgust to the once quiet community.

When will the authorities do the right thing and protect the interest of the community?

We complain about the noise…the Tuesday night Karaoke, the patrons of this bar that drive through the street at high speed and booming explicit music from their vehicles. We complain about the disrespect to the residents where patrons of this bar park their vehicles in front of gateways and pedestrian pathways.

We also complain about the litter of garbage that come from this establishment. Over the weekend, an overturned garbage barrel (from the bar) was allowed to remain in the sidewalk for a few days; with garbage littered all over.

 

The bar owners did not see it fit to remove the litter from the sidewalk. Instead, it took someone else to go out and remove the mess  because the individual is concerned about the health of the environment and their own personal health.

This should not be. The health authorities need to deal with this matter PRONTO!

This is complete disgust. The garbage is a prime breeding ground for rodents which have since become popular in the area.

We are once again calling on the relevant authorities to close this bar.

 

In the first place, no such establishment should have been given license to operate in a residential community. It is pure corruption.

When will the authorities do their work as they are paid to do?

We demand action now!  We cannot take it anymore.

SHUT THE BAR DOWN.

  1. I won’t say close them down, but hold them accountable for their actions interms of the loud music and the garbage ect. Just saying

  2. Dear patrons if the writer has stated all truth and facts let us know.

    Dear writer You are quite a disgusting human for fixing your finger to type such inaccuracies. If you are who you say you are the owners will be taking the legal route to be compensated for damages resulting from your constant reporting of exaggerated lies.

    • What happens to the noice act? Are you staying that there is no loud music at your bar to disturb people while they try to watch tv or sleep?

  3. Shut down all the Spanish bars too.
    Cause dangerous Antiguans act like they don’t hear Spanish music
    Low Antiguan business

    • you disgusting, after they fire you from the quarry you cry like a baby, be a man, why you call for spanish bar to be closed.

  4. Any GUNSHOTS fired to people’s NECK??

    • Where's the GUN that killed NIGEL CHRITIAN and when will shortie be charged for forging the PM signature?? Where's the GUN that killed NIGEL CHRITIAN and when will shortie be charged for forging the PM signature??

      THIS PAPPY-SHOW, DISREGARD FOR THE RULE OF LAW IS A CANCEROUS BEHAVIOUR AND AFFECTING THE ENTIRE NATION. THE INABILITY TO BRING CHARGES AGAINST A CUSTOMS BROKER WHO DEFRAUDED THE TREASURY OF OVER THREE MILLION DOLLARS ($3,000,000). THE INABILITY TO BRING JUSTICE TO NIGEL CHRISTIAN , THIS WHOLE COUNTRY IS LIKE ONE BIG CARTOON SHOW!!!!

  5. In my opinion,the police should be making unannounced visits to that Bar and all others in dwelling communities. There should be operational procedures that must be adhered too or be shuttered,licenses revoked.

  6. Unannounced visits?? U sure they don’t patronize that same bar???

  7. It a disgrace! Antigua becoming noise pollution captal of da world. Only one volume level in Antigua – max max max. Antigua get a terrible reputation. Wat wrong with sum peace quiet! For the love of God TURN IT DOWN

  8. It’s been a long, long time now that such allegations have been made against the bar operator. Has there been no official investigation into this seeming outrageous wrong being perpetrated against this community? If, in fact, investigations have been conducted by the relevant government agencies and the findings prove that accusations against the bar operators are inaccurate, false, exaggerated and mischievous OR (Heaven forbid) TRUE. Then this information should be made public and demands made for incompetent government offucials and the uncaring bar operator to be dealt with. Perhaps then. spotlight seekers like deFreitas could rile up his party base to launch, this time, a meaningful and effective demonstration of solidarity with this community which appears to be demanding what every other community – from Blue Waters to English Harbour – desires. But… are the accusations even true? Something is amiss.
