Downtown Renaissance Master Plan
The city established new downtown and central entertainment districts to crack down on late-night rowdiness and safety issues. Bars and restaurants operating past midnight will now need to install surveillance cameras, provide adequate parking lot lighting, and check IDs electronically. While officials hope this will make nightlife safer, local business owners worry about the extra costs and rules.
