SNOW HILL– While no formal violation was found, officials urged a Berlin business owner to be careful about entertainment in the future.
The Worcester County Board of License Commissioners (BLC) met with The Globe’s Nicole Brushmiller this week to talk about a complaint regarding noise at Tiki Tim’s that was made last month. BLC members determined the issue didn’t technically constitute a violation but advised Brushmiller to be cautious in the future.
“We need to make sure you’re totally clear it can never ever happen again,” board member Charles Nichols said.
Tom Coates, the board’s attorney, said this week’s hearing was the result of a report from February related to noise complaints as well as a restriction violation. According to Coates police received two noise complaints the afternoon of Feb. 27.
Berlin Police Sgt. Merle Bragg confirmed he’d responded to the second complaint. He said when he arrived he couldn’t hear music until he walked behind the Atlantic Hotel. And while he did hear music emanating from Tiki Tim’s at that point, he said it didn’t rise to the level of what he’d normally consider a noise violation.
Bullshit, how can a business be warned not to let it happen again, when no violation was committed ? Just who does board member charles nichols think he is ? That sounds like something joe obiden would say
