Early Morning Noise

I know first hand what Ms. Lewis is speaking of. Not only do
I agree with everything mentioned I would like to add to the
list open threats, vehicle damage, property damage, litter, and
drug use. Many businesses and homes have had windows broken,
electricity tampered with, and doors broken by individuals.
And all anyone has to do is walk from the tunnel to First City
Saloon to see the vehicle damage and litter.
I know that the police have their hands full on a nightly basis
with these problems, and instead of trying to catch or stop such
activity why can't there be a prevention policy?
Maybe look into where these individuals are going to and/or coming
from and try to prevent these things from happening and hold
all responsible for these actions.

About: "I have worked
at various college bars across the country as a doorman and bouncer,
and am amazed at the lack of security and responsibility of a
few of the bars in town. Does anyone else see a problem with
needing police stationed outside an establishment on a routine
basis? "
