Four Easy Steps To Close The Courtesy

Residents to Town: "Take The First Step..."

Closing the Courtesy Hotel is as easy as 1-2-3. Okay. Its actually 1-2-3-4.

Truth is, the Town of Hempstead has the power to padlock the Courtesy, and all the Supervisor and Town Board have to do is take four small steps. . .

STEP 1: Two predicate Felony arrests within 12 consecutive months. [We have that and more!]

STEP 2: Town Attorney puts owner of Courtesy on written notice of its violations of the Nuisance Law.

STEP 3: Town Board schedules and holds a public hearing, upon due notice, to determine whether, in fact, the Courtesy is in violation of the Nuisance Law, and so finding, fashions a remedy – to wit, invoking the padlock provision.

STEP 4: Town of Hempstead Supervisor Kate Murray, acting under color of the Nuisance Law and the authority of the Town Board, padlocks the Courtesy.

Then, watch the sales price plummet, and the wrecking ball fly!
