But the Dayton Police Department has recommended the city object to the permit being sought by the 1130 N. Main St. location.
The five other recommendations that will be voted on Wednesday stem from the objections of neighborhood residents, a city spokeswoman said.
“In all instances, it was determined that the issuance of a liquor permit would interfere with the public decency, peace, sobriety, and good order of the community,” according to a statement from the city’s law department.

When a new liquor permit within the city is requested, the city gets an opportunity to object.
The city solicits the input of neighbors, the priority boards and the police, and the law department determines whether there is sufficient reason to object, the spokesperson said.
Family Dollar did not immediately return a request for comment.
