KEMAH, Texas (KTRK) — A street home to Kemah’s Lighthouse District is back open after the city shut it down later in the summer to the drivers.
It’s all because of legal action taken by business owners in the area who say the closure was hurting them financially.
A Galveston County judge granted what’s called a temporary injunction ordering the city to reopen sixth street because state law wasn’t followed.
“Pure relief. It was an amazing thing,” Bakkhus Taverna general manager Lance Cumpian said.
“This is a huge win for our team. Of course, I was super excited,” Jordan Paultz, GM of operations for Voodoo Hut, said.
There’s excitement because the street has plenty of parked cars, and that means more customers for restaurant and bar managers.
