Hugo's Holds Celebratory Ribbon Cutting

Though open since last winter, held its official ribbon cutting ceremony on Tuesday evening.

Co-owners Tom and Emily Kaplan; Richard and Leslie Brenner welcomed City Councilmembers Illece Buckley Weber and William D. Koehler, Jill Lederer, CEO of the Greater Conejo Valley Chamber of Commerce and the community to the festivities.

When asked why the business waited so long to hold the ceremony, spokesman Rich Leivenberg told Patch, "It was planned for an earlier date, but due to scheduling difficulties we were unable to get it done."

After the ceremony, champaigne and appetizers were served.
