I don't think we've accomplished anything. In fact, I'm seeing the problem is even bigger than I envisioned a year ago. |
I think overall this will help tighten up the licensing of child care in our state. |
It doesn't go to the direction that I wanted it to go. |
It is true they are private clubs. My experience has been though you can get that membership whether you're a resident or tourist at any one of these places. I personally believe that the private club issue in Utah is outdated. I think that if we want to have a place for people to drink we should let them have a place to drink. |
Look at who the biggest violators are. Those are already (under) primary enforcement, yet it's still the biggest problem. |
That is beyond where I was talking. |
There's a reason we have the private club law in this state. It's because we don't want to be perceived as friendly to alcohol. But at the same time we're not really living up to the expectations of the law in many of these clubs. I'm thinking the smoking ban is a step to point out these (clubs) are not as private as we say they are. |
When you get to that size, that's where government really does have a purpose, have a role. We have regulations, but I just don't believe they're tight enough right now. |
You guys have to convince your colleagues to take it out, because we can't afford it. |
