SOCIAL DISTRICTS: So far, 39 municipalities are taking advantage of a law allowing them to create social districts where visitors can consume alcohol outdoors. The intent is to help bars and restaurants recover from pandemic-related losses and to lure local residents and visitors downtown. They include Petoskey, Ludington, Sturgis, Three Rivers, Cadillac, Wyandotte, Dundee, Adrian, Northville and Mount Clemens. Officials from Greenville and Petoskey and the Michigan Restaurant and Hospitality Association discuss.
