WESTBROOK — The owner of a full-nudity strip club on Warren Avenue that was shut down by city officials earlier this month has sued the city of Westbrook and Fire Inspector Charles Jarrett.
Tom Hallett, the lawyer who represents Larry Ferrante, owner of Dreamers Cabaret, filed a lawsuit in District Court on Tuesday seeking its occupancy permit and a temporary restraining order and permanent injunction against city officials. Ferrante is also asking for an unspecified amount of damages for loss of income and attorney’s fees.
The club opened Sept. 17 and was closed the next day, after city fire officials said they found code violations involving fire alarms, sprinkler coverage and state construction permits.
