Watch Morristown Council Debate Over Liquor License Renewals

The Morristown Council renewed the liquor licenses of the Dark Horse Lounge and Sona Thirteen bars this week, but not without conditions, or some contentious exchanges.

The council approved the renewals, nearly two months after letting the licenses lapse, on the condition bouncers and security guards took online tests and the establishment’s owners placed an off-duty police officer outside the Dark Horse on DeHart Street from midnight to 2 a.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
