RALEIGH (WTVD) A memo from the North Carolina Sheriff s Association suggesting that Gov. Roy Cooper did not have the authority to allow businesses to sell to-go alcoholic mixed drinks in the state prompted some confusion on Wednesday.
Cooper executive order, which went into effect Monday at 5 p.m., said bars, restaurants, hotels and clubs could sell alcoholic mixed drinks to-go. The order, he said would discourage people from congregating indoors, as well as provide an economic boost for the state s bars and restaurants. The order also allowed businesses to sell alcoholic beverages after the 9 p.m. curfew for on-site drinks.
