The residents of Cardston voted overwhelming against the sale of alcohol in local businesses in a plebiscite vote held on Monday evening. Residents of the predominantly Mormon town of Cardston, Alberta, made it abundantly clear in a vote on Monday evening that alcohol has no place in local businesses. A plebiscite vote in Cardston resulted in 1, to to not allow the sale of liquor, continuing a prohibition that has stood in the community for the past years. The town also shot down the possibility of restaurants and recreational facilities selling liquor on a limited basis. I think perhaps you would have to have a new generation of people before that happens again. Other issues decided in the plebiscite included no sporting events booked in public parks on Sundays and no backyard henhouses. Are you in favour of allowing sporting events to book Town operated fields and facilities on Sundays? Should the Town conduct a pilot project to determine the impact and feasibility of allowing backyard hens? We welcome your comments.

A century after the end of prohibition, one dry town in southern Alberta is a step closer to allowing liquor to flow in certain establishments. The town of Cardston, located roughly kilometres south of Calgary, held a plebiscite Monday in line with the provincial election on potentially changing a bylaw to allow restaurants and recreational facilities to serve liquor. The results in the town, which is home to many non-drinking Mormons, or members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, were close — residents 53 per cent voted yes, voted no. CBC News reached out to Mayor Maggie Kronen for comment on the results, but did not hear back in time for publication. Tanner Leavitt, who owns Guero Taco along the town's Main Street, is among several people in Cardston's business community who have pushed for the bylaw change. He said he was surprised by Monday's results. The results of Monday's plebiscite were non-binding. However, they will be used to inform council on the public's views on the matter as the town moves forward with potentially changing the bylaw. The next step will be a public hearing. Specifically, Cardston is considering changes to a land-use bylaw that would allow Class A and B licences, which are for food-first restaurants and large recreational facilities, where alcohol could be consumed on-site.
