Downtown late night food ordinance introduced

A new Late Night Food ordinance authored by Council Member Gary Schiff will come before Minneapolis City Council later this summer. The bill will allow downtown restaurants to serve food after 2:00 a.m. “The Late Night Food ordinance will create jobs and boost the downtown economy,” Schiff said. “It will also tame the bar close mayhem and help people sober up before they hit the road.”

The Minneapolis Police Department has formed a work group to focus on the problems related to crowd control at bar close. The group recommended more downtown restaurants be allowed to serve food after 2:00 a.m. to lessen the demands on police when people exit downtown bars simultaneously.
