A member of the Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverage Service's commission called the Legislature's action 'basically a Band-Aid.'
The only one of the six businesses that commissioners had questions about was Kennedy’s Cabaret. When asked what a cabaret is, owner Troy Cayias explained that “it is a place where you can sit, eat and be entertained.”
Cayias and the cabaret’s attorney, Steve Spencer, made it clear that the entertainment would not be sexual in nature. Alcohol is prohibited at sexually oriented businesses, such as strip clubs that feature full nudity. Seven of the nine have opening dates in late June or early July. Tennert said the board will maintain its policy of considering them only when they are ready to go, with a business license either in hand or about to be granted once the business had its liquor license. Those applicants will likely try again at June’s DABS meeting.
Shurtleff, a former attorney general of Utah, said the dispute led to his client losing the lease for the space on Pierpont. Shurtleff asked the commission to suspend Echo’s bar license for 30 days, rather than remove it completely, while he works to sort out the ownership tangle.
