Sioux Falls Bans Booze at Tower Park, Van Eps Park

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — The Sioux Falls City Council has banned alcohol use at two additional city parks.

The Council voted Tuesday to ban booze at Tower Park and Van Eps Park. The ban begins next month.

Council's action came despite concerns that problems associated with public drinking at the parks are likely to move elsewhere in the city.

Alcohol already is banned at a dozen parks in town.
