Court Gives Tavern at Tina's Until Oct. 15 to Build Bypass Lane or Close

Having missed the court's previous deadline to construct the lane opposite their property on North Avenue, the Imbronone sisters now have until Oct. 15 to build the lane and reimburse Macomb for court costs accumulated during the dispute.

If owners of The Tavern at Tina’s fail to comply with the latest orders from a  Macomb County Circuit Court judge, their business will be closed on Oct. 15. Ruling in the case of TTCH Development LLC vs. Macomb Township, Judge James Biernat, Jr. ordered TTCH (Tina's owners) to build a southbound bypass lane opposite the tavern's property on North Avenue and pay court costs accumulated by Macomb Township during the dispute by 5 p.m. Oct. 15 or face closure, according to court documents. These orders stem from the January 2011 consent judgment signed by TTCH Development and Macomb Township following some three years of legal disputes. Per the consent judgment, Tina’s owners, sisters Cathy and Mary Jo Imbronone, had until June 1 to build a …

Jamie... just like it's the same people on here trying to defend the indefensible actions of the Imbronones and their buddy John Johnson? A few people have referenced Tina's Country House, which is a long-standing business...they've been catering there for years and years, and by all accounts doing a good job. This fiasco started when they decided to buy the old Mutt & Jeff's and open a bar/…   more ›

Tavern at Tina’s Ordered to Build Bypass Lane on SB North Avenue

The owners of Tavern at Tina's and Tina's Country House will have until June 1 to build the bypass lane and finish the parking lot improvements required by their consent judgment with Macomb Township.

A traffic study conducted in the area of Tavern at Tina’s has found the need for a bypass lane to be constructed opposite the Tavern’s entrance on North Avenue. Court-ordered as part of the Tavern at Tina's/Tina's Country House consent judgment with Macomb Township, the study noted the danger of traffic backing up into the North Avenue-23 Mile Road intersection as a result of vehicles waiting on southbound North Avenue to turn left into the Tina properties. The township board voted Wednesday night to have the Macomb County Circuit Court set a June 1 deadline for the bypass lane to be built on the west side of North Avenue. Building the lane and completing the parking lot improvements approved earlier by the township Planning Commission are…

First of all the band sucked. Had we known there was a band we would not have attended to start with, the flyer said DJ. Dj's blow bands away at these events. I don't care to hear a concert I want dance music. Second Flyer said open bar, they would not serve us shots not did they have a beer the flyer said they would have. Third seating was jacked from the moment we arrived. The ticket had one …   more ›

Tina's Tavern Moves Forward After 3-Year Wait

Township trustees vote to accept settlement proposed by TTCH Development.

The three-year legal dispute between Macomb Township and the owners of Tina's Tavern has reached its final stage. The Macomb Township Board of Trustees voted unanimously on Tuesday to approve the consent judgment, or settlement, presented by TTCH Development, the owners of Tina's Country House and Tina's Tavern. Although this latest development is the closest the issue has come to resolution in three years, township Clerk Michael Koehs said until the judgment is signed and entered, it could still be changed. However, Koehs was quick to add the board did approve the consent judgment as it was proposed and he does not anticipate any additional changes. "There's a lot of the conditions I'm not at liberty to talk about right now until it's …

Tina's Tavern Still on Hold Pending Township Decision

Although a settlement between Macomb Township and TTCH Development was expected today, the issue has been tabled until Dec. 21.

Although the Board of Trustees called a special meeting today to discuss the long-awaited settlement of a lawsuit between Macomb Township and TTCH Development, the issue has been tabled once again. The board will reopen discussion of the issue at its regular meeting on Dec. 21. "Under discussion, the board still had questions about minor things," said Michael Koehs, township clerk. "It's progressing, but we're not there yet." Koehs said he expects the board will reach a decision at its next meeting. Stemming from a lawsuit filed in 2008, the legal dispute between Macomb Township and TTCH Development, the owners of Tina's Country House, is entering its third year. Tina's Country House currently operates on the property at the southeast …
