Subject: A&M BBQ support
Hello Council Members,
I am writing to voice my support for A&M BBQ, as I understand there have been some complaints from neighbors about smoke from their location.
This independent business is valuable to Sebastopol in so many ways. A&M BBQ consistently shows up oƯering delicious food at many of our town events, always with a smile, and is a beloved local business. We need more places like A&M providing more diverse food options within Sebastopol. Additionally, A&M BBQ attracts many more people to South Main Street that is rarely visited, and encourages more exploration of our lovely city.
I do sympathize with people with health issues, but I urge the City to work with A&M (one of the few black owned businesses in town) to come to an amicable solution that will allow them to continue providing wonderful food and support their success here in Sebastopol.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Kind regards, Lisa Liese
