Local alcohol policy shelved while District Plan sortedSUPPLIED Palmerston North's Regent Arcade is a key part of the city's night life. Palmerston North's long-awaited local alcohol policy has been put on hold and is unlikely to be resuscitated for another year or two. WARWICK SMITH/STUFF Cr Lew Findlay is disappointed with delays in sorting Palmerston North's local alcohol policy. The problem needed to be resolved because a local alcohol policy could not legally provide more generous conditions than the District Plan. The recommendation to stop work on the alcohol policy was supported by 12 councillors.
