-has now applied for dance licence
By Subhana Shiwmangal
The proprietor of the Eclipse Sports Bar at Leonora which is at the centre of noise nuisance complaints published in the Stabroek News has refuted allegations made by letter writer, Jai Lall and says his facility is soundproof.
In the meanwhile, the bar has applied for a dance licence, according to an advertisement in the Guyana Times.
The key complaints as published in the Stabroek News Letter to the Editor were loud noise from the bar and profane language and rowdiness by patrons of the establishment. Additionally, Lall said that the bar would close beyond its scheduled hours and its overzealous patrons would thereafter gather at food bars in close proximity where music is played loudly accompanied by expletive laden language.
In an interview recently with the Sunday Stabroek, Surendra Dasai, the proprietor of Eclipse Bar who also resides at the same address, 24 Leonora Pasture, West Coast Demerara explained that renovations were undertaken earlier in the year and the bar was reopened on April 19th, 2024. Dasai said that part of the renovation included soundproofing of the bar with a double door and concluded that with that in place it was impossible for his bar to be the source of the noise nuisance that Lall complained about in his letter.
