[Mpls] strip club moratorium

[David Brauer]

Linda notes:

> "Strip clubs have been concentrated Downtown since 1992 when the City
> Council passed an ordinance, authored by Councilmembers Gary Schiff (9th
> Ward) and Joe Biernat (3rd Ward), that essentially allowed the city to
> uproot existing adult-entertainment businesses on the outskirts of
Downtown,
> giving them a year to move into the urban core."
> 
> This is quite wrong! This ordinance was authored by CM Sandra Hilary and
> others. I thought it was actually before 1992.
> 
> Joe Biernat was elected in March 1993, Gary Schiff joined the council in
> 2001. Gary's so young, he probably was barely old enough to vote in 1992!

Hey, I knew that! But nevertheless, it got in on my watch, so my apologies
to current and past Councilmembers involved.
