IOWA CITY (AP) - A debate is scheduled on the pros and cons of Iowa City's 21-and-older bar law.
The law will be on the Nov. 2 ballot. Voters are being asked whether they want to repeal the ordinance, which prevents those younger than 21 from being in a bar after 10 p.m. The age limit had been 19.
The Iowa City Press-Citizen says Monday night's debate is hosted by the Hawkeye Area Chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union and the League of Women Voters of Johnson County.
The debate, at the Iowa City Public Library, features Jim Mondanaro and Matt Pfalzgraf, opponents of the measure, and proponents Tom Rocklin and Nick Westergaard.
