From the WBRZ breaking news alerts. I'll try to find link.

Bar owners will riot.

ETA: Looks like it wasn't rejected, just nobody showed up.

Did the council present their data and analysis as to why?

Probably that bars don’t over-proportionately represent NBR so they will get shut down until enough SBR bars say uncle.

The absolute state of you thinking the council has the mental capacity to analyze data

It appears from what I can gather that almost half of them didn't show up and of those that did, they lost one from Zoom and therefore didn't have quorum. I still cannot find anything concrete on this, though.

Excluding vacations, I can't even remember the last time I've been inside of a bar.

This is beyond dumb at this point though and has been for some time. The are singling out certain businesses to destroy.

The thought process for most of the council is as follows-

The following WILL / WILL NOT help Watson in November.

Anything that will gets shut down, anything that won’t gets pushed through.

I’m so confused. They shite the meeting down bc of no quorum and I saw you saying it just started.
Guess they restarted it.
Did they vote it through this time?

I posted this in the other thread but I *think* the vote went:

Watson yes
Welch yes
Wilson yes
Hudson yes
Amoroso yes
Racca yes

Green abstain

Banks, Loupe, Collins-Lewis, Cole, Wicker no shows

UPDATE: The East Baton Rouge Metro Council did not pass a motion to reopen bars Wednesday, despite the city-parish getting state approval. The city-parish attorney said during the meeting that the metro council is the governing body of the parish and ultimately has say over whether bars can open. We've reached out to the mayor-president's office for comment.
