John Morrisset stated that the Downtown Association held a meeting in January of 1982 with approxi- mately 35 of its members present and unanimously voted in favor for the Council to adopt an Ordinance as being presented to the Council at this time.

He said their reasons were a lack of adequate parking in the downtown area and the clutter caused from the patrons of the bars.
