“6 a.m. to 1 a.m. from Sunday to Thursday, and up to 2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday, and on Sunday if Monday is a holiday.”

WHY?
If you are catering to tourists. Tourists generally Don’t know or care if it’s Saturday or Monday.

And that is a LOT of hours. Looks a WHOLE day+ of revenue, and taxes that those business will not get. And possibly, needing to eliminate staff to adjust for that lost business.

If it was low usage and unprofitable, those establishements would have already scaled back hours. Presumably, these hours are popular with clients and profitable. Why stop it?

What precipitated this was a spat of shootings, fights, DUI accidents, and the like, in addition to the loud music, aholes relieving themselves on people’s yards, and drink cups and bottles left everywhere, all of which mostly happens after midnight.

As for tourists, the ordinance does not apply to hotels or private properties like AirBnBs and such.
