If this smoking fine nonsense is true, I am appalled. No wonder the city wanted a smoking ban...so they can fine small businesses and take their money. More money for the city, less money for small businesses. Kinda reminds me of the parking meter lease. Anyone else notice all the open parking on Dearborn since the meter rates went up. Can&#39;t be good for business.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-54067014479314274492009-06-24T07:13:27.631-05:002009-06-24T07:13:27.631-05:00Found out about your blog via Chicago journal and intend on checking you out regularly now. Wonder if any of you have been by Cafe Mediterra on Dearborn this summer? Found out they didn&#39;t apply for license to have outdoor seating this year -- too expensive for them, plus they got fined so many times last year when customers smoked out there. Wonder if you know how much those outdoor licenses cost, and how high smoking fines are? I miss the outdoor seating at Mediterra!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
