Where to comment on Cleos hours
The city's comment period ends this week for 4am liquor license application at Cleos, 1935 W. Chicago Ave. Managing partner Scott Floersheimer made presentations Feb. 1 to the East Village Association and Jan. 19 to Chicago Grand Neighbors Association. Neither group took an advisory vote; both encourage raising concerns directly with city authorities.
Floersheimer told EVA members he's motivated to make make late hours a success: A second shift and security will nearly double his personnel, and problems could jeopardize his license to serve liquor, whatever the hour. Here are where to direct comments by Feb. 12.
