Joel Oliphint, reporting for The Other Paper:
Currently, Liquor Control has three active cases against the Treehouse, two of which involve bad checks and one (the most recent) that involves a failure to pay taxes. A hearing is scheduled for Sept. 16.
Similar violations, including more bad checks and tax problems, date back to February 2009. The venue also temporarily lost its liquor license last summer. At the time, Palma explained that the venue was closed due to flooding. (full story)
Tax problems with Ohio venues seems to be popping up everywhere.
