102 W Main Street submitted Tobacco Ordinance Application for Cigar Lounge

Prime8 Investors LLC, led by Richard Rowland Jr., has submitted a tobacco-ordinance application to operate a 24-foot V-nose utility hauler as a Mobile Cigar Lounge at 102 W Main St. Because the trailer stays under the 80% coverage threshold in Louisvilleโ€™s smoking rules (LMCO 90.02), itโ€™s treated as a non-building โ€” more of a rolling cigar hangout than a brick-and-mortar lounge.

411 S 4th St 109 applied for Tobacco Ordinance license for mobile cigar lounge

Richard Rowland Jr., doing business as Prime8 Investors LLC, has submitted a Tobacco Ordinance application for a mobile cigar lounge operating out of a 24-foot Vโ€‘nose utility hauler at 411 S 4th St, Unit 109. The record notes the unit falls under the Louisville smoking ordinanceโ€™s 80% threshold and is not defined as a building per LMCO 90.02, so this appears to be a true mobile cigar lounge rather than a brick-and-mortar shop.

531 COURT PL encroachment permit filed sidewalk closure and facade inspection
