<p>I've been waiting for many years for the day when one can go, (e.g. in the evening) to the Central Plaza, aka &quot;La Cancha&quot; and NOT be forced (by default on the part of the &quot;Authorities&quot; to apply the Environmental Norms), to hear the &quot;music&quot; emitted from that bar quite APPROPRIATELY NAMED &quot;Bar<strong> La INGOBERNABLE</strong>&quot;.  <br />
It is there on the 2nd floor, open air with ZERO containment of the noise their sound system produces, which at times can be heard almost as far down to the pier at the end of El Paseo del Pescador.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The loud noise all night long is why we stopped staying in Centro. The noise was so loud our walls were reverberating at 4am. The next year when walking through the area saw apartments that were occupied the year before. We really love Centro, but getting sleep at night is more important.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Hola<br />
What is with all the fees bars have to pay here? 1000 pesos for music fees for a year, plus 800 pesos a month for music. 100+ pesos for opening on a Sunday. Do restaurants or boutique shops have to pay for opening on Sundays? Also extra fees for having lights over a certain wattage. What the f? There are more that I can't remember. <br />
There was also a big crack down on outside seating. Places that have had tables and chairs on the streets for years have had to remove them. Not sure if this applies to restaurants as well.<br />
Just think it is a big money grab. I think that after January these enforcement people will disappear and things will return to normal.</p>
</blockquote><p>Really glad to hear that. I wish it were harder to open a bar than it is. There are too many noisy bars and too many damn drunks and druggies. Last night our neighbors were treated to blaring awful karaoke by drunk meth-heads until 4 in the morning. I'd just as soon there weren't any bars at all. The alkies, hop-heads and prostis may not like it but I really couldn't care less.</p>
<p>And we downtown dwellers and business owners hope the crackdown continues. Love it that they've cleared the sidewalks of bar stools and tables. PERFECT! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!</p>
