Not so fast with the wine

The move to allow the sale of wine in grocery stores is hitting a bit of a snag in Sumner County, with more than half of the signatures on petitions filed so far turning out to be invalid.  Cities which allow liquor by the drink, as Hendersonville does, are eligible to hold a referendum on allowing the sale of wine in grocery stores. In Hendersonville, just over 1500 valid signatures are required on a petition by August 28th in order for the issue to make the November 4th ballot.

If the referendum passes, Hendersonville residents could be buying wine at Kroger and Publix by June 2016.

More on the complications related to the wine petitions.
