New liquor store to be moving into Famous Footwear location in Westwood Village
Seeking remediation on the following:
- limiting signage of the liquor store to the shopping center side only.
- increasing lighting and limiting access to loading docks behind Famous Footwear location and Staples.
- fixing lighting on the Sealth and Denny School playfields to eliminate drinking occuring after dark on the playfields and to discourage homeless from camping here.
- provide speed bumps or other traffic calming devices on Trenton to reduce racing on the street after dark.
