cpnews Posted November 5 Report Share Posted November 5 At just 28, Daniel Squadron is one of the youngest candidates ever elected to the New York State Senate. So why is this young buck considered to be the greatest threat to New York City nightlife since Prohibition? Squadron's has proposed numerous changes to the current the liquor license application process, and seeks to make local Community Board's reccomendations a binding judgement on applications as well as create "SLA Community Enforcement Teams" for new "High Density Residential Zones" to keep nightlife's impact on residents to a minimum. Despite what you think of these ideas, the question now is what chances do a Junior State Senator from Brooklyn have of getting this legislation passed? Since the State is about to go through another painful round of budget cuts, and property owners are going to continue looking for tenants to fill empty retail spaces, it seems that this may not be a top priority for veteran legislators. But if somehow it does pass, we only hope that the Senator, who we know and like, makes himself available to attend each and every meeting of his local Community Board to make sure that potential operators are given a fair shake.More...
