๐Ÿฅž๐Ÿ‘” FATHERโ€™S DAY BREAKFAST AT THE PERCH! ๐Ÿ‘”๐Ÿฅ“

He gave you life.
He fixed your bike.
He taught you how to swear at inanimate objects.

The ๐‹๐„๐€๐’๐“ you can do is feed the man.

Bring Dad to The Perch ๐’๐š๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐๐š๐ฒ & ๐’๐ฎ๐ง๐๐š๐ฒ, ๐Ÿ• ๐€๐Œ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ง๐จ๐จ๐ง for Fatherโ€™s Day breakfast.
Weโ€™ll keep the coffee bottomless, the bacon crispy, and the dad jokes flowing like heโ€™s been training for this moment his whole life.

Heโ€™s put up with enough โ€” and nothing says โ€œthanks for fixing everything I brokeโ€ like a hot plate of breakfast.

Bring Dad. Bring Grandpa. Bring the guy whoโ€™s basically your dad because heโ€™s the only one who knows how to work the grill.
Weโ€™ll handle the food. You pretend you didnโ€™t forget to buy a card.

Last season, they did not need to deny anything.
I had no choice in the process โ€” they had every choice in the outcome.

Chapter 125 is clear: ๐Œ๐€๐˜ ๐๐ž๐ง๐ฒ is not ๐Œ๐”๐’๐“ ๐๐ž๐ง๐ฒ.

A board member even told me, โ€œI feel bad for you, but if you would just remove Steveโ€ฆโ€
There is ๐ง๐จ ๐ฅ๐š๐ฐ that requires removing an LLC member.
We met the statute.

They also said I โ€œdidnโ€™t work with them,โ€ while also saying they ๐œ๐จ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐๐งโ€™๐ญ talk to me.
Those two statements donโ€™t match.

We qualified under the law.
They chose to deny anyway.

Some have asked about last night's meeting here is the recorded version.

06/10/2026

Tonight broke something in me that I didnโ€™t expect.I walked into that meeting prepared, calm, and ready to use my twoโ€‘minute public presentation โ€” the same two minutes every citizen is allowed โ€” to explain why the denial of my license was based on a completely wrong reading of Chapter 125. I was doing exactly what the process allows.

But the moment I mentioned the Village Clerk posting about my business under fake Facebook accounts, everything changed. I was cut off, yelled at, and told I was โ€œout of order.โ€ My two minutes were taken away the second the truth became uncomfortable for them.
And then we moved into the denial discussion, where they continued insisting that every LLC member must โ€œqualify,โ€ even though the law clearly says only the agent must qualify. Members are disclosed, not judged. Itโ€™s right there in the statute, but they refuse to read it.I left that meeting feeling defeated, disrespected, and honestly heartbroken. Iโ€™m tired of fighting a village that should be supporting small businesses, not tearing them down. Iโ€™m tired of
Iโ€™m tired of being treated like the problem when all Iโ€™m doing is asking them to follow the law.

But Iโ€™m not giving up. I canโ€™t. Iโ€™ve come too far, and the truth matters too much.
