So how many entertainment district ordinances are out there now?  Does anyone have a handle on this?

Everybody hold on to their broken chairs!
DIA- Downtown Includes Alcohol. We need another round over here.
(i) (h) Sound emitted from safety relief valves and rupture discs. Excuse Me!

I think there are three.  Redman's initial one, followed by Daniels and now the one above.  In the mix was the short term waiver voted on last week.  At some point in order to understand all the proposed legislation, posting of the original ordinance (the one rarely enforced) would be in order to compare the current changes to I believe.  I am guessing Legislative services could help identify that more quickly than an online search for the original.

What a tangled up mess.

Confusion strategy.

Wasn't it mentioned in the meeting last week that some thought the original was supposed  to be revoked after the supper bowl but somehow wasn't?  Isn't this new ordinance just trying to do that?  And won't that make Daniels' ordinance mute as no entertainment district will be here to be expanded?
