The Madison City Dept of Finance and the joint Dane County/City of Madison Dept of Public Health just released their report on alcohol outlet density. They did not appear to take my suggestion that emergency rooms and other nonprofit service providers such as domestic abuse and homeless shelters contribute data. Nonetheless, the analysis is interesting, especially the confirmation that there are more police calls and investigations as well as building inspections in the areas of Madison with the highest densities of alcohol outlets. Another interesting thing that was found is that alcohol outlets tend to be clustered in areas where there are more people who are low-income living. It is now up to the ALRC, the Mayor and the City of Madison Common Council to determine what an appropriate number of alcohol outlets are per given area should be.
There was a presentation of the report to the Alcohol License Review Committee last night that can be viewed via the City Channel online if you are interested. (Link: media.cityofmadison.com/mediasite/showcase/madison-city-channel/channel/alcohol-license-review-committee)
