Westminster Community Shows Support for Mefleh, Who Vows to Correct Deficiencies at Restaurant

Westminster City Council member and restaurant owner Yousef Mefleh has received a lot of community support and is determined that his eatery will meet city building requirements and correct deficiencies contained in a DHEC inspector’s evaluation on Monday that left the restaurant with a “C” rating. ..

Mefleh was asked if he thought political adversaries were responsible for some of his issues, and he responded with, “I believe so.”

Two weeks ago, Mefleh changed his Westminster city council vote, which created the margin in favor of removing a $7 dollar a month add-on to the bills of utility customers and raised the monthly charge for outside water customers. Only four council members remain in Westminster, including Mayor Brian Ramey, Mefleh, Jimmy Powell and Dale Glymph, following the resignations of Rusty Cater, Danny Duncan, and Brad Chastain.
