Yeah, I uh let me look at the language here. Okay. Mr. Chairman, I move that we modify the language of ordinance number section 2882 entertainment district. To change the hours of operation from Monday through Saturday. 11 o'clock a.m. to 10 o'clock p.m. All right. And uh Sunday from 11 o'clock a.m. to 10 o'clock p.m. So that's a language change of the hours of operation and uh I'm looking here and no alcohol. All right, under the sentence beginning with no open containers containing alcohol may be carried into any business establishment. Uh sentence added on behind that uh no uh alcohol shall be consumed or no how would we say that outside alcohol no outside alcohol to be consumed in the district so those two changes Mr. Chairman we have a second and then that they can only they can direct the immediate outside form oh we need a third thing okay we're gonna after 10 p.m. you can only drink all right uh we would need another sentence in that then that says that uh alcohol consumption allowable after 10 p.m.
