We are starting a petition to submit to the Mayor of Lake Dallas to enable small businesses in Lake Dallas to stay afloat during this trying time. There was already a temporary ammendment in place by both Governor Abbott and the TABC. I will include the website that clearly states, on the TABC website that any business that holds a mixed liquor license and food certificate can sell alcohol to go with food. It has no provisions about private vs. non-private clubs. The information is publically available, on TABC letterhead (you have to download the official document from the website), and it seems to me that our local officials in the Lake Cities, especially Lake Dallas as they have 3 very valuable restaurants with bars, should not only be following the lead from the State of Texas, they should have a passionate, vested interest in ensuring our local businesses stay afloat so that their constituents have places to go back to when all of this chaos goes away.

I sat down with one of our local owners this morning and saw firsthand how much pressure they are under to keep their doors open. We are pushing for the city to honor the state guidelines because our favorite spots cannot survive another day of uncertainty.

Seeing this kind of energy for our local spots leaves me speechless. It means the world to see our neighbors fighting to keep these beloved places from disappearing for good.

I understand the need to close physical access to bars as a social venue, but want to support local businesses right now. There is no public health hazard posed by this to my knowledge, since alcohol is still able to be delivered by other restaurants.

It’s ridiculous that it’s being referred to as a dry County when there is literally a liquor store next to it. If other restaurants have been aloud to serve alcohol to go then they ALL should or the number of abandoned buildings due to closed business will take over every town.

We support our local businesses and stongly request that Lake Dallas follow Governor Abbott's directives allowing us customers to order "to go" beverages with our take-out orders.

I fully support this and asked our local government to explain or I ask TABC to explain how the governor who THEY WORK FOR tell us how they can OVERRIDE OUR GOVERNOR!

I believe that they should be able to sell for carryout during this time as long as they put a seal on the jugs as proof that it was sealed before purchasing
