Linda Harris writes on The Decatur Minute that the City Commission will “consider whether to adopt a resolution calling for a referendum on November 8, 2011 on whether to allow package sales by retailers of malt beverages, wine and distilled spirits on Sunday.”

If approved by the November referendum, retail beverage outlets like Kroger, Sherlock and Ale Yeah! will be able to sell their spirituous wares on Sundays.

Also note that the city has posted the question of Sunday sales on the city’s Open City Hall feedback forum.  Submit your opinion there until 3pm on Monday and it’s considered an “official” comment to the commission.  With 39 responses thus far, the opinion – not surprisingly seems a near unanimous “Yes!” thus far.
