Red Deer bylaw allows for alcohol consumption in city’s new designated ‘entertainment district’

The new designation means people visiting the street-side patio area can consume alcohol “outside of licensed premises” there, the city said.According to the city, Red Deer’s Downtown Business Association had submitted a request for such a designation in the spring.“Located on the north side of Ross (50) Street, between 49 Avenue and 50 Avenue, the Ross Street Patio Entertainment District will operate weekly from 12 p.m. to 11 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday,” the city said. “Alcoholic beverages must be purchased from vendors within the site and must be consumed within the boundaries of the district.
