Representative Peter Svarzbein was in Brooksville, Pennsylvania; that’s where the refurbished streetcar was prepped and loaded for the journey back to the borderland. After all the chains were attached, streetcar #1506 was out of the factory. Svarzbein did not say when it’s expected to arrive. Oklahoma City KWTV March 13, 2018 LINK: http://bit.ly/2FO4zaA In today’s Oklahoma City business report, another step forward for the streetcar project in downtown Oklahoma City. Yesterday another one of the seven total streetcars was delivered to the Metro. After the delivery of the Clear Sky Blue car, the Redbud car went for a short test run. EMBARK says so far things are going smoothly. Things are working as expected, and so we’re just continuing to learn ourselves, because this is the first time we’ve had rail vehicle on city streets in more than half a century. Each of these cars will go through extensive test runs before any passengers get on board.

    Who Runs Our Cities? The Political Gender Gap in the Top 100 U.S. Cities SEPTEMBER 2016 This report is authored by the staff of the CUNY Institute for State and Local Governance: Jocelyn Drummond, Qian Zhang, and Victoria Lawson ABOUT THE CUNY INSTITUTE FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNANCE The CUNY Institute for State and Local Governance’s mission is to bridge the gap between researchers, practitioners, and policymakers using data and research to help government produce better results, worthy of public investment and trust.

ABOUT THE EQUALITY INDICATORS The Equality Indicators measure progress toward achieving greater equality in New York City and other cities in the United States and internationally.

  • Covid-19 (Coronavirus) Mandates and Precautions for Alcohol Industry Licensees
    COVID-19 (CORONAVIRUS) MANDATES AND PRECAUTIONS FOR ALCOHOL INDUSTRY LICENSEES Current as of 3:30 P.M. EDT, March 17, 2020 COVID-19 (coronavirus) continues to invade nations, societies and industries at an alarming rate. As the pandemic spreads, lawmakers and business leaders are working to address the disease’s consequences – quarantined populations, disrupted supply chains and a consumer population under increasing pressure to conform to “social distancing” and stay home. The consequences of COVID-19 are especially hard on America’s hospitality industry generally, and the on-premises segment of the industry in particular. Public venues such as Walt Disney World and Universal Studios have closed their theme parks. Professional sports leagues such as the National Basketball Association and the National Hockey League have suspended their seasons. Key data points for the dine-in restaurant trade already reflect alarming downward trends. GAUGING THE IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON AMERICA’S ALCOHOL INDUSTRY The impact of COVID-19 on the commercialization of alcohol beverages, as with almost all aspects of alcohol regulation in America, varies from state to state. In a growing number of states, the government has ordered mandatory closings for bars, restaurants, nightclubs, theaters, arenas and similar venues. But in other states, the restrictions are limited to the number of patrons permitted on the premises at one time. And in a few states, the government has decided to impose no restrictions at all, relying instead on suggested guidance regarding social distancing and taking a wait-and-see attitude. GrayRobinson’s Nationwide Alcohol Industry Team prepared this analysis to inform industry members regarding the current status of COVID-19 restrictions on alcohol commerce, and to offer alcohol regulators the opportunity to compare and contrast the positions – and often creative solutions – developed by states to address the pandemic’s challenges.

GRATZITHE WORLD-HERALD After more than 25 years in office, Council Bluffs Mayor Tom Hanafan has plenty of mementos. On Friday, Hanafan said he's already taken 21 boxes of items out of his office with many more to go. Tom Hanafan has straddled the Missouri River like no one else -one foot planted firmly in his hometown but the other f eque epping across to Omaha. As mayor of Council Bluffs for more than a quarter-century, the good-natured Hanafan has served opposi e nine Omaha ma ors and joke that he is tired of breaking then in. As he steps down as chief executive of his Iowa city of 62,000, he is being praised for his regional outlook. But even more so, people on both sides of the Muddy Mo marvel how much the Bluffs has changed under his long leadership.
