(WSB Radio) -- The owner of the Love Shack says he's calling it quits in Johns Creek. John Cornetta says he was losing $40,000 a month because the city refused to allow him to put up a sign. Cornetta is vowing to seek $1.7 million in damages from the city.
The store, which opened just before Johns Creek became a city, has been the source of what seems like endless litigation.
WSB talks with Love Shack owner John Cornetta
Cornetta blamed the city's unwillingness to give him a sign for running him out of business. The city has said it won't give a sign permit or a business license for an adult business in an area not zoned for that.
After the Love Shack was ruled against in Fulton Superior Court, Cornetta cleaned out all but a few of his adult items to become a non-adult store.
Cornetta and the city have cases pending in federal and state appeals courts.
