The DNA is proud to support this newly formed association, the Providence Nightlife Association also known as the PNA.
Working with the PNA, the City of Providence and the Hospitality Resource Partnership the DNA has become an important part of the team focusing on late night issues such as reasonable control of noise and chaos and future ordinances for extended hours.
Just last week there was a hearing in regards to granting a 24-hour license to a local downtown business, Pizza Queen. Now, the idea of Providence becoming a true late-night city combined with the possibilities of pizza until 4am make us weep with happiness. And as your DNA reps, we’re always looking for ways to make our neighborhood fun AND safe into the wee hours. But even though we’re making progress, we’re not there quite yet. Luckily, our friends at Pizza Queen considered the same situation and had a very smart compromise that we support. Read more about it here: http://newsblog.projo.com/2009/03/city-tentativel.html
