Popular music venue announces closure, says City of Harrisburg denied license renewals

The Harrisburg Midtown Art Center is responding to accusations that it took and withheld taxes. Its response comes after city leaders commented on HMAC's impending closure during a council meeting Tuesday night. According to HMAC founder John Traynor, who spoke with CBS 21 News over the phone, the amusement tax, also known as the entertainment tax, hasn't been paid for roughly three years because "we are a small business struggling in a tough economy." He also said it's because the city did not respond to their attempts to discuss next steps.
