Reader Poll: Should Atlanta Allow the Sale of Alcohol on Sundays?

Share you view in the comments section of Cascade Patch.

Atlanta residents will get the chance to have their say on Sunday alcohol sales this November. The Atlanta City Council on Sept. 6 voted 9-2 for the measure, which lets voters decide if they will authorize the city council to allow and regulate Sunday sales of beer, wine and liquor. The question — Ordinance #11-O-1169 — will be placed on the Nov. 8, 2011 City of Atlanta Special Election ballot. That ballot also would include the referendum to continue the extension of the the penny sales tax by Atlanta Public Schools and to fill the vacant Atlanta Board of Education District 2 seat. So, Cascade Patch wants to know: Should Sunday sales of alcohol be allowed?
