customers (more so than the liquor store on St.
Paul). When I've requested a particular item, the
Schnapp Shoppe has gotten it in.<br>

without cars), with a dynamic streetscape that does
not separate residences and businesses serving
residents. To my mind, the Schnapp Shoppe answers
that goal and should remain as it is.<br>

existing store was grandfathered in because it
acquired a liquor license before the current laws
went into effect (in the '70s, I believe. The law
probably doesn't allow liquor stores in completely
residential areas like the Schnapp Shop anymore.<br>
