Keep the drinks flowing

Today is the official City Commission Hearing to change the Grove bar closings to 3 am, rather than 5 am.

Again, I don't see a difference in two hours and again, I think it is going to hurt business.

While the Grove is starting to turn around and new businesses are arriving, we are not there yet and I don't see how being smug and bullying the current businesses is a good thing. Look what happened to Josiah on American Idol when he tried to be smug.

Commissioners -- think before you act.

How about putting a few more cops on the streets instead and having the bars pay for that? Someone else suggested vandal-proofing the Grove -- like having unbreakable glass installed on all storefronts, which would help with hurricanes, too. (I don't mean the UM Hurricane's, I know they do get rowdy in the Grove at times). Proactive is the way to go.

You can see the meeting on City Hall TV -- Channel 77 - or here:

Unbreakable glass? Do you have any idea how much that would cost?
