After years of asking their city council representatives to rid their neighborhood of a retail business selling shotguns, AR builds, handguns and ammunition out of a residential home in the vicinity of Dayton Avenue and Powers Drive in Greenwood Village, several dozen residents of the area came to GV City Council on February 7 to present a petition signed by 225 GV residents and 25 other concerned citizens asking the council to act to prohibit the retail sale of firearms from a home in the city. Six people spoke about why they believe it is an inappropriate home business, including a former GV city council representative. The owner of the business, who is apparently renting the home (his name does not appear as the owner on county records), also spoke. Watch for the complete report in next week’s Villager.
