Islamic centre in Halifax launches noise complaint against bar next door
HALIFAX — A Halifax Islamic centre says it’s had enough of the noise coming from the bar and brewery next door, and wants an end to the urination, vomiting and cigarette butts from bar patrons.
The Centre for Islamic Development said Monday that is has filed a noise and litter complaint with the city against the Good Robot Brewing Company and also wants the province to revoke its liquor licence.
Juan Carlos Canales-Leyton, a centre member who wrote the formal complaint, said the brewery assured centre representatives that something would be done, but he said the noise in particular hasn’t subsided.
“About a year or so ago they started to have parties and we started to see garbage, human fluids left on our step and noise levels,” said Canales-Leyton. “We have a religious centre which is also a school, but it doesn’t matter what it is because if it was your house you would have the same issue.”
