Statesboro City Council received two versions of a draft of a new Alcoholic Beverages Ordinance from its attorney Tuesday night and released them to the public. Version A would prohibit people under 21 years old from entering an establishment that "by name, common usage, knowledge and/or understanding ... constitutes a bar, night club, lounge or similar business." Version B, labeled "More Permissive for Those Under 21 Years of Age," would not prohibit younger adults from entering bars and nightclubs outright.
City alcohol law drafts would limit under-21 entry
