Nicole Perez, a resident and event-venue operator, addressed Dalton City Council during open public comment to ask when a venue near the new Tapa supermarket can reopen for quinceañeras, weddings and other events.

Perez said the venue had been an important community space where her business decorated events and that she and others have invested in improvements. She said staff had repeatedly told her the restriction would be lifted "in a month," and she asked for a clearer timeline. City staff told Perez the city attorney's office is working on the event-center item and requested her contact information so staff can notify her when the council schedules the first reading; staff offered to speak with her after the meeting.

What happens next: code-enforcement staff will follow up with Perez and notify her when the first reading is scheduled; no schedule was announced at the meeting.
