It would be interesting for this community to weigh in on the idea that the ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE REGULATION ADMINISTRATION should limit its regulatory purview to the regulation of the transport, service and consumption of alchohol. Food sales, dance floors, types of music, outdoor patios, etc. would seem to be prima facie outside of their jurisdiction. After all, DCRA, FEMS, and DDOT all get first passes at regulating those aspects of an establishment.

Small Businesses already have a hard enough time navigating the obstacles put in place by the DC Government. It seems like bad policy to add a second layer... particularly when the entire structure of ABRA and the ABC Board is REACTIVE rather than proactively trying to manage an industry.
