1. Alcohol is mostly served in the evening. Schools close around 3pm and aren't open on weekends, when most alcohol is sold. 2.

Change is hard. My experience in the civic arena is that it takes "a couple rounds" of putting the idea out there before there is consensus to go forward. I wrote a bunch about failures of transit referenda in Tampa Bay and the State of Georgia in the 2010s. Georgia introduced a new way to create transportation districts, then expected people to vote up or down in less than a year (" Failure of the transit-roads sales tax measure in Metro Atlanta ," 2012).
