canvasback Unregistered C	Originally Posted By: white17 That's the whole town ! There are two bars and a package store. There are the occassional drunks but they pretty much stay out of people's way. The cost can be too high. I have no tolerance for drunks, and a lot of the town feels the same way. What I would like to see, and you guys touched on it earlier, is for the town or village government to own the license. The town should reap any financial reward from selling booze since the town has to pay all the costs associated with the drunks. I normally would be opposed to that competition with private enterprise but booze related problems affect everyone in the community. I think there are 7 Towns, Villages, that have Community Liquor License in Alaska. If the Town owned the License, that would be a good source of revenue to fund improvements to the Town.
