Perhaps a few interested people should form a pro hac 'committee' to check into this. Kathie, you are I think one of the logical choices to head this up - any other takers?
I would help if needed. We are not out late at nights more than a couple of times a week, but believe in the right of myself, and others, to have this option.
I think that one of the first things would be to collect the objective facts, by asking the business owners exactly what they have been told, when, and by whom; in regards to the complaints. And then, talk to those people; ie, those responding to the 'complaints' and find out the facts of what the complaints actually amount to, what they are basing their actions on, who they report to, etc.
And also, find out from each business owner what their interest is in staying open - ie, how late would they like to have outdoor/ indoor music, and on what nights, even if they could?
Then, with this information, and plus hopefully a consensus of many opinions from TOTV - including people who don't live here yet but who are considering moving to TV - as added data, talk to the authorities and see if a resolution can be reached; and if not, find out the appropriate governing bodies and show up at their public meetings to present the information gathered and to offer solutions. The meeting next week mentioned last night, unfortunately will find many of us out of town for T/G with family.
It's either this, or accept the status quo.
.... and, anyone own a decibel meter and measuring tape, who could be 'on call' for emergencies?
