Promoter's Ordinance Council Vote Put on Hold

As a result of a massive amount of public opposition toward the Chicago City Council's planned Wednesday vote to approve a promoter's ordinance that would place crippling restrictions on event promoters in the city, the City Council License Committee decided today to postpone voting until an undetermined date.

In the meantime, the committee plans to work on fine-tuning the law, which is expected to take at least a month, before taking further action.
