The City of Everett has always been looking for ways to improve itself, and amending some regulations is one effective strategy that the local council employs. Recently, there was a focus on the Alcohol Impact Area that runs through most of downtown as well as along Broadway to the north and Evergreen Way to the south. The council voted to implement an ordinance that proposed to ask merchants in this area to voluntarily stop selling certain cheap beverages with high alcohol content and aimed to lower the incidences of chronic public inebriation. If the voluntary scheme proves effective within 6 months of enactment, it will be deliberated as a mandatory rule for the area.
