Michigan Bill Would Allow Bars to Stay Open Until 4 AM
A new bill from Michigan lawmakers could allow bars to stay open later.
On Thursday, February 25th, a new bill was passed by the Michigan House of Representatives in a 77-27 vote. The new measure, HB 4213, would give bars in Michigan the ability to stay open and serve alcohol until 4 am. However, the city or township that the bar is in would have to pass a resolution permitting the change.
Currently, in Michigan, state law prohibits the sale of alcohol for on-premise consumption between the hours of 2 am and 7 am. If the new bill passes, bars playing to stay open later would have to pay $250 annually for a late-night permit.

Owosso to Create Downtown Social District
Owosso joins the movement to create a downtown social district for people to enjoy.
Last July, a law passed through the Michigan Legislature to allow social districts to be created throughout the state. These common areas would allow for the outdoor consumption of alcohol between 10 am and 10 pm Monday through Saturday and noon until 10 pm on Sundays.
