The reward offered is contingent upon the arrest and conviction of Perry. Perry is accused by Berg Investment of stealing a company check and of credit card fraud. Perry was a Works employee until he was fired on February 22nd after Berg found that Perry had been using someone else's credit card to make charges at The Works. Perry would write up a charge slip for $25 or less, place it in the cash register, and then take the cash out of the cash register. Berg found out that the credit card Perry was using was on VISA'S list of stolen/lost credit cards. The credit card was that of a customer of The Works. Perry was caught only because he got greedy and made seven charges to the same card in three consecutive shifts that he worked at The Works. No other employee had taken a charge from this customer. Subsequent to that Berg discovered that Perry was in possession of an American Express Gold Card as well as the driver's license of another customer of The Works who lived in Michigan. Perry clipped the picture out of his Tennessee driver's license and placed it in that of the Michigan driver's license and then relamin- ated it. Perry then tried to place thousands of dollars of orders with mail order houses including International Male, Frederick's Of Hollywood, and Touch Of Class Designs for merchandise. He was not successful in receiving the merchandise as the credit card was already on the lost/stolen list. Any other customers of The Works who have had their credit cards stolen in the last six months should contact Stan Berg at The Works at (317) 547-9210. Quite by accident, one day before Berg was to have gone on vacation and only one day after the firing of Perry, he discovered, with the help of Works employee Jack McCoy, that Perry's sister, Jean Gordon Holley, of Cincinnati, had helped Perry cash an $1,800 Berg Investment Corporation check at the Cinco Credit Union in Cincinnati where Holley has an account. Berg never wrote a check to Perry for $1,800. Upon examination of the corporate check book Berg discovered that one check was missing. Berg placed a stop payment on the check while waiting for his flight to leave the next morning. Ultimately Perry's sister in Cincy had to pay out of her pocket the $1,800 Cinco had given Perry.

The reason given for denial was that there are already too many liquor outlets on Lafayette Road.

Douglas Stephens said his department initially issued an affidavit for zoning under the Teenagers Accused In Anson Death See Indiana News belief that the location was within a zoning district that allowed for a tavern with certain restrictions . However, Stephens said, the affidavit was revoked on December 28, 1988, when he learned that the building that would house the tavern was within ten feet of a residential district. He said this type of zoning requires a distance of 100 feet from a residential district. However, according to 21 Club owner Paul Eckert, the "Cowboys" nightclub is right next door to the proposed 21 Club location and is just as close to the "residential district." Based on the affidavit which the city issued and prior to its being revoked, Eckert stated that he had invested roughly $750,000 in the new location. Joseph F.
