Carbondale keeps underage patrons in bars after vote
The Carbondale City Council voted to not ban 18 to 20 year olds from bars despite a public hearing. SIU Carbondale students packed the chambers while owners and clergy urged against a prohibition citing job losses and economic impact. Police expect enforcement to depend on bar owners and a probationary approach may be considered. The council also amended the code to bar under 21 from purchasing or drinking beer or wine.
