NPU-F Votes on The Goat Club Feb. 17

Neighborhood Planning Unit - F to Vote on The Goat Club on Monday

The Goat Club, a restaurant and bar proposed for 2200 Cheshire Bridge Road (the former site of the New Baby Products store), has filed an application with the City to Atlanta for a license to serve alcoholic beverages at the location. The owners will present to NPU-F officials Monday, Feb. 17.

At its meeting on February 5, two of the three owners of the proposed club presented to the membership of the Lindridge-Martin Manor Neighborhood Association.

Mr. Osman Sak, Mr. Muhammet Erkek, and Mr. Kemal Karsli (not present, but the owner of The Sivas here in Atlanta), asked to have LMMNA’s support for a variance, since their facility is within 140 feet of one of our residences.

City code is for at least a 300-foot buffer zone. After the gentlemen’s presentation and a Q&A session about their plans, LMMNA voted overwhelmingly to oppose this application.  (See our meeting minutes for more information.)

On Monday, February 17, NPU-F will vote on this application (to approve or deny) and send its recommendation to the License Review Board.  Lindridge-Martin Manor neighbors are urged to attend the NPU-F meeting to make our community presence known.

The meeting is to be held at Hillside, 1301 Monroe Drive, 30306. This is a facility cross from the Monroe Drive entrance to the Atlanta Botanical Garden. (Click here for a map.) Residents are asked to please support LMMNA's opposition to the application.

LMMNA’s representatives to NPU-F, Rich Sussman and Jane Rawlings, will be present for the vote. Contact them at npu@lmmna.org if you have questions.
