Community advocate Serethea Reid is urging residents to submit formal rejections to the Local Liquor Commission opposing a second liquor store on the 5300 block of West Madison Street.
Serethea Reid, founder of the Central Austin Neighborhood Association, writes about unanswered requests to the 29th Ward alderman to install a sign many believe would deter crime in the community.
Data showing inequities in the number of police dispatched prompted a lawsuit against the city, but residents have not seen improvements.
