We the people hereby petition the City Council, Mayor John Fretti and City Manager Larry Hanson to amend the City of Valdosta liquor ordinance. We ask that the legal serving time as well as closing time be changed from 2:00 am to 3:00 am and that all non employees be off premise no later than 3:30am. This action although not totally equaling will make the city more competitive to like businesses located in the Lowndes county which times already allow for them to serve alcohol until 3:00am and does not specify a closing time.
The Undersigned,
Seeing the momentum behind this request is truly overwhelming for me. It is clear that I am not the only one who believes we need a change in our local ordinance, and I am just humbled to see how many of you stepped up to highlight this issue.

Finally. Tired of driving all the way out to the county just to have one more drink with friends. Valdosta needs to keep up.

Seems fair. Other places around here already do 3am so why are we stuck in the dark ages? Just let the bars stay open longer.

Make it happen. It makes no sense for the county to have different rules than the city. Everyone deserves a level playing field.

This would help downtown a lot. It is annoying when they kick us out so early and everyone just leaves for the county spots anyway.
