The city of Tempe has taken a side in the legal battle between a popular Mill Avenue music venue and a retirement home across the street.
The Tempe City Council released a letter addressed to city residents on Thursday in support of Shady Park, saying a judge's ruling would "cost many employees their jobs, and rob the City of Tempe of an economic and cultural asset."due to complaints of excessive noise.
"The judge’s ruling casts into doubt Tempe’s ability to thoughtfully regulate and promote live music throughout the city," the letter read. "Furthermore, we are concerned about the precedent of substituting a judge’s opinion on a matter of local concern, instead of allowing elected officials to determine the best policies for our community as a whole."
The venue plans to appeal the ruling, arguing that the restrictions make it "impossible" to hold live shows and it would eventually be forced to close their doors. According to a statement from Mirabella at ASU's executive director Tom Dorough, the retirement home has never attempted to shut the venue down, and the litigation would still allow Shady Park to hold shows seven days a week.
