Former AMVETs, Dodge Clark Buildings May Have New Tenants Soon

The Planning Commission can vote on requested permits for several businesses that are looking to move in and into Mentor during its meeting 7 p.m. today at City Hall.

For example, a pair of entrepreneurs would like to open a pool hall and game room in the former AMVETs building at 4679 Corduroy Road.

The pool hall, Cy's Place, would have a pair of pool tables, darts, ping-pong, foosball, air hockey, corn hole and a snack shop, according to the report that was prepared for the Planning Commission.

What it would not have is a liquor license. Charles Young and Joseph Short, the applicants, said the business will not serve beer or alcohol.

The business has requested a conditional use permit to run the pool hall, as well as another permit to allow dining outside.
