Redevelopment Commission gives favorable recommendation for Club Greyhound liquor license to go to Town Council
Summary
The commission reviewed an application and packet for Club Greyhound, a proposed cocktail and vinyl lounge at Curran 812 on Main Street; staff found the application complete and the commission gave a favorable recommendation to forward the liquor license application to Town Council for final approval.
Staff presented the Club Greyhound liquor license application for a three-way license within the South Clarksville Riverfront Development District and confirmed the application packet met the town’s permitting requirements. Craig Ruprecht, the applicant, described his plan for Club Greyhound at Curran 812 on Main Street: a cocktail bar with a curated vinyl-listening component, a limited food offering consistent with state requirements, an optional outdoor cigar service area and a proposed midnight closing time rather than late-night hours.
Ruprecht framed the concept as a neighborhood‑oriented lounge that references historical local venues and said the operation will avoid late‑night service past midnight. Staff told commissioners that if the redevelopment commission issues a favorable recommendation the application will be forwarded to the Town Council and included with the state Alcohol and Tobacco Commission (ATC) application materials. After brief questions about food offerings and operations, the commission voted to provide a favorable recommendation and transmit the application to the Town Council for final action. The recommendation does not itself grant a license; final approval remains with the Town Council and the state ATC.
