Local grocery stores are actively pushing changes to C'dales existing liquor code to allow them to sell liquor without the restriction of setting up a separate sales area to do so. Apparently there are petitions out at Krogers, Schnuck's, the Neighborhood Food Co-Op and Arnold's Market for customers to sign.
Local blogger on all things beer, the Beer Philosopher weighs in on the controversy as well, saying that Mayor Cole's opposition to more liquor licenses "smacks of cronyism" and plans to post an online version of the petition on his site. Kroger had copies of the petition at all of its checkouts this morning and most of them appeared half filled.
