Oz Nightclub, a gay club in Springfield, had its license suspended by the city License Commission after police uncovered a cocaine-dealing operation taking place on the premises. The club closed down on Aug. 15.
Oz will remain shuttered until it hires a new manager, who must be approved by both the city and the state Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission, a process that could take at least a month. Club owners must also install video cameras on both floors of the club in order to get their license reinstated.
