LIQUOR STORES: Moratorium on Cold Singles Proposed

Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner Nicholas Alberti (6A04) announced at the May 13 ANC meeting that he had just presented a proposal to the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board to ban the sale of chilled singles on a stretch of 15th Street NE:

"My community has organized a proposal to have the ABC Board implement a moratorium on the sale of chilled single servings, on 15th Street NE, from East Capitol to C Streets NE. A single serving would be defined as four or fewer containers of beer or alcohol. ... They could sell as many warm singles as they want. ... The proposal was signed by over 225 residents within two blocks of the stores." §
