Should Wildwood allow bars and clubs to stay open 24 hours a day?
After deciding against a move that would have allowed bars and clubs in the city to stay open an extra hour (from 3 to 4 a.m.), Wildwood's governing body is now considering a measure that would keep them open 24 hours a day.

Many city residents, led by Commissioner Al Brannen, have voiced opposition to the change. They will be able to again at a public hearing on the ordinance scheduled for July 28 at 6:30 p.m. Click here to read the full story.
