Annexation
This is an interesting annexation proposal. Short Liquors is wanting to open up Blue Fish Liquor and Cigars on Sweets Drive, just off Reed's Station Road. However the owner of that area, according to the proposal, never petitioned the city to change the status of the property from "dry" (its status as part of Carbondale Township to "wet" (the city of Carbondale's status), when the city annexed it in 1999. The city council must officially change the status for Blue Fly to open there.

Just what Carbondale needs-- more alcohol out on Route 13.
