One Day Community Boards Will Finally Stupid Themselves Out Of A Job
If there’s one that that people in Brooklyn love, it’s brunch. And nothing shows how totally fucking out of touch a community board is like cracking down on brunch:
A Williamsburg neighborhood group is waging a war on brunch — pressuring restaurants in one of the city’s mimosa-strongholds to open later, hush their patrons, and keep their diners inside.
Community Board 1 members want the city to enforce a little-known rule prohibiting restaurants from serving diners at outdoor sidewalk cafes on Sunday mornings.
“This would keep the sidewalks open for Sunday morning walks to church,” said Community Board 1 public safety chairman Tom Burrows. “Lokal, Enid’s, and Five Leaves consistently open their sidewalk cafe hours before noon on Sundays.”
If you’re bothered by people on the sidewalk, then New York City is kind of the wrong place for you . . .
