Taming The Jumping Turtle

By Logert, January 12, 2010 2:56 pm

The Jumping Turtle Restaurant and Grill’s owners on Monday appealed a Dec. 31 ruling that upheld San Marcos’ decision to revoke the business’ entertainment permit, paving the way for the matter to go to the City Council.
The Jumping Turtle can continue hosting live music shows pending the council hearing’s outcome, she said.
The business attracted little city attention until last May, when San Marcos officials added new restrictions to The Jumping Turtle’s entertainment permit.
The new rules limit the business to two live shows per week, restrict it from charging a cover fee, and ban people under 21 from the premises when alcohol is being served and a band is playing, among other things.
City officials have said underage drinking, noise and other problems at the establishment led to the stricter rules – allegations that Hall and Mouradian say are untrue or exaggerated. – More Turtle

**UPDATE** – Check out the Jumping Turtle vs. City of San Marcos

2/3/10 – The Jumping Turtle Bar and Grill and its owners filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday that accuses San Marcos of harassment, deprivation of civil rights and other harmful actions and seeks injunctions to stop them, the business’ attorney said Wednesday.
