My answer to this question is sipmly no. I feel as though in many cases personal vendetta is the real issue.  Having managed and worked at a number of Oceanfront bars and restaurants in my time, I feel as though noise is in no way a top priority issue for the ABC.  People in the 21-26 year old demographic enjoy loud music and should not be punnised for that. If ABC would focus on the owners maintaining a clean and safe enviroment in the bars at the beach I strongly believe that a great deal of the "Problem" would be solved. ABC regulation requires that food be sold up one hour before an establishment closes...... Good luck grabbing a bite at 9 pm. If the laws are not being enforced now then why should ABC be given more authority to enforce anything else. I feel that there is a great deal of corruption within the F&B industry, and it all starts with the city council,and the ABC. The Kids are Going to party regardless..... It is up to you to give them a safe and clean enviroment to do so. Focus on the task at hand before you put more on your plate.
