- Citing civic complaints about Cookies’ flagship store on Melrose Avenue, West Hollywood City Manager Paul Arevalo this week asked that the company’s license be revoked.
- “In a time of a global health pandemic where city resources are strained and residents are urged to stay home to prevent the spread of COVID-19, it is unacceptable that one business should be permitted to cause such disruptions and havoc to the city and its residents at home on a near daily basis,” Arevalo wrote.
- Meanwhile, Cookies is having a moment in the national sun, having expanded to Colorado, Massachusetts, Nevada, Washington and beyond. The company has been heralded for its smart, effective out-of-state partnerships.
