The freshly rebuilt Downtown street is fast becoming the city's center for nightlife. Established bars Henry & Wanda's, Park 6, Blue Rock and McAuliffe's on the Square are now joined by a revived Tango Bar and the ambitious Raytown Roadhouse bar and restaurant.
And now another restaurant is in the works.
Joe Madison, co-owner of Pepi's Deli on Main Street, is seeking a liquor license to open Pepi's Pub and Grill at 618 Sixth St. Madison is scheduled to appear before the City Council's Public Safety and Licensing Committee on Monday.
The proposed site is located on the west end of Downtown's Sixth Street. Here's a photo:

* The owners of Coasters, Kenny's, Neighborhood Bar and The Club are requested to appear before the committee for incidents at their taverns.
* Park 6's owner is called for a three month update on its tavern.
* Joey LeGath, the owner of four bars in the Racine area, asked to talk with the committee about the changing clientele in his bars. Some bar owners are concerned the committee's aggressive enforcement of taverns is forcing troublesome customers to find new bars.
* The committee will consider tweaking its quota on Class A liquor licenses to allow sold businesses to keep their licenses regardless of the quota.
