This past year, only 39 bars filed for a State Liquor Authority "all-night" permit. 6 were denied. That’s down from the 400 applications received the year before. Reasons given include the new 10-day instead of 45-day filing deadline prior to all-night events, a New York State crackdown on unruly applicants and the poor economy. It's enough to make a bar owner want to drink, day and night.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This blog is a quick comment on an older New York City news headline. Unforeseen NYCo website development delays prevented it’s publication before now. For readership continuity, 100’s of older headlines are to be posted in chronological order until this blog is current. Though some of the stories may no longer be as relevant as they once were, they remain interesting news items worthy of this site’s mention and viewer comments.
