Hultgren may still be profiting from something he helped destroy (May 10, 2018 City Council Meeting);

Item #13, Transfer of 2018 Retail Liquor License, including Sunday sales and video lottery terminals, from Pave LLC, Pave, 130 South Phillips Avenue, to Pave LLC, Pave, 130 South Phillips Ave and Level 2 of 136 South Phillips Ave.

This transfer of the Liquor license is for the rooftop patio for Pave. That patio is above the new Lewis Drug Downtown, the former Copper Lounge site. While there is nothing nefarious about extending a license for a rooftop patio, Pave’s ownership is questionable. Originally Hultgren was a substantial owner/stakeholder in Pave. Is he still? And if so, does our city council and licensing department know?

It seems Hultgren may still have his hands in the cookie jar. As I told the council last night, this fiasco will continue to replay, over, and over again in the media.

2 Thoughts on “Is Hultgren still involved w/new building at former Copper Lounge site?

  1. Was he corporately or personally invested in Pave? Because isn’t he currently in bankruptcy court in Texas as far as his corporation is concerned?

    FYI, Texas and Florida are bankruptcy sanctuaries. It’s easy to establish residence there and what you can keep personally is unbelievable. For example: boat, car, truck, motorcycle, house on acreage. A house is not limited in size so long as each room has a function (ie. sewing, billiards, hobby, trophy). There’s an area SW from Austin that’s lake vicinity hills with multimillion dollar homes. Most are vacant most of the year. SD is peculiar for bankruptcy. Car only with less than 2K equity, no home equity that’s minimal square feet, oxen and yolk.
