Sales and use tax are down over the exact same period as any other June. Profits are down. I am well aware of the laws regarding alcohol. My point was that the franchises who aren't owned locally and don't have a vested interest here, don't buy their food here or support the local economy near as mu...

It is true, I am without a doubt, that some businesses were destined to have difficulty regardless of the smoking ban; but, when the problems are wide-spread in every sector of the community's nightclubs and legions you have to look at the situation seriously. These people aren't making money like t...

I do understand the health issues. I truly do. I can explain further about my deep seeded believes there... BUT the act of restricting what can go on in a privately owned business, or better yet a private club where consenting adults go, is what the point is. Yes, it would be better if people didn't...

The ramifications of this go very far. The food and beverage tax is suffering which means WE ALL will be paying more for projects the City Council has over committed to. The numbers are there already. The sales tax, the food and beverage tax are down. Profits are down, expenses are up. Income from t...

The only reason some stop complaining is because they are out of business. These are the people outside smoking complaining.. these are the OWNERS and WORKERS who are getting the shaft.
