More on Seattle Nightlife ordinances

The folks over at the Seattle Nightlife and Music Association (SNMA) have done a great job of staying abreast of the proposed ordinances that could/will affect the bars and clubs around town. They've just posted a message that is asking for you to take action.

If you're in Seattle, please send an email to the City Council via the "sample email" link in the message below.

Action Needed – the City Council needs to hear from the nightlife community! Wednesday, January 24, 2007, 01:59 PM

The City Council needs to hear from the nightlife community regarding our opposition to the proposed nightlife premises ordinance. SeattleNMA is hoping you will get involved today. Neighborhood activists are organizing an email campaign as we speak – the City Council must hear from our industry as well.

Please email the City Council and let them know you oppose this legislation. A sample email can be found at http://imonthelist.org/index.php?id=6 and you can just cut and past it into an email by clicking on the link to the councilmembers email addresses.
