Sounds like they will just have to drive a little farther to get their groove on, and Weston misses out on a buttload of tax revenue. Good going, party-poopers.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

If those are things they don't want in their town, who cares? It's their business, and it sounds like there are nearby options anyway. They already don't have any of those things, so it looks like the party was already pooped a long time ago.
Pretty sure there was a movie about this...checking...ah here it is.

If you saw South Beach banning nightclubs it would be a much bigger story.
Pretty sure it's called Weston, FL a city of about 60,000. In the grand scheme of things not much different, but also not Florida City.

Anyone from Florida here to tell us the story?
Don't know the story myself, but Weston reminds me of Atherton, CA, which has banned quite a few different types of businesses as I recall. So, my guess is its basically rich, or relatively rich, people keeping out the riff-raff.
Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.

I read this as Florida, as in the state, banned all these things. Now that would be a politcial circus I would very much enjoy watching.
