Buscan regular la venta de alcohol y apertura de bares en el downtown de Orlando

Una nueva medida estaría buscando también la prohibición de abrir nuevos bares en el centro de la ciudad.

The Orlando City Council is currently discussing a proposal that seeks to ban new nightlife businesses from opening in the city and regulate the sale of alcohol at existing bars. The measure, if approved, would take effect on March 20 and would have a significant impact on the city's nightlife.

The proposal comes in response to residents' concerns about noise and violence associated with night-time businesses. According to the defenders of the measure, the prohibition of new night businesses would help to control these problems and improve the quality of life of the residents. In addition, regulation of the sale of alcohol in existing bars could also help reduce the incidence of misconduct.

However, the proposal has generated some controversy. Nightlife business owners say the move would negatively affect the city's economy while limiting entertainment options for residents and visitors. Some also argue that the ban is not an effective solution to the problems associated with night-time business, and that instead, specific measures should be taken to address violence and noise.

The move has also been criticized by some activists and civil rights advocates, who argue that the ban on new night-time businesses could have a disproportionate impact on low-income and communities of color. According to them, many of these businesses are owned by people from these communities and provide employment and entrepreneurship opportunities.

Despite the concerns raised, the Orlando City Council has continued to discuss the proposal and hear arguments from both parties. While a final decision has not yet been made, it is expected to be done soon. If the measure passes, it will be interesting to see how it will affect the city's nightlife and whether it can effectively address the problems associated with nightlife.
