Market49 Bistro in Historic Downtown Angels Camp Closes
Angels Camp, Aug. 17, 2015 – Market Forty-Nine Ventures, Inc. opened late October 2014 with high expectations to help revitalize the downtown historic district in the Angels Camp Mercantile Building.
August 5, 2015 the building became infested with fleas stemming from feral & wild animals that reside outside the back area of the building. The fleas then quickly infested the interior of the building. This being an immediate public safety issue; forced Market49 to close to eradicate the problem. “After 3 weeks and several different forms of treatment, the fleas are still inside the building. Progress was slow; we’ve had our pest control service out on emergency calls several times. Nothing seemed to work. We then added Food-Safe Diatomaceous Earth, but the problem is beyond our control” said Tey Cross-Carpenter, one of the corporation’s board members. “We have been able to reduce the population but have failed at total eradication”. The extended closure and unforeseen ability to reopen forced the board members to make a heart breaking decision to close operations.
“First and foremost, we would like to thank our employees for their dedication to Market49. We’ve had the pleasure of making many new friends through our customers, vendors and locals who welcomed Market49 to the community. We will forever be grateful to the employees, customers, vendors, friends and family for their support.” Market Forty-Nine Ventures, Inc. Board of Directors.
