Is this still in place for bars/restaurants? Or does the city just kinda look the other way now?

Thanks for the info! So if there is a lounge license exception, why aren't there any nightclubs on this side of the river? I thought the 51/49 rule was what prevented it but it sounds like there is no legal barrier to having no-kidding clubs as well as more bars like OTR. Of course you would still have to get past the conservative element in town.

I think the city of Florence requires so many parking spaces for a night club.

Morality issues. It's similar to how every couple of years people seem to be really receptive to a state lottery or Sunday alcohol sales, but eventually go back against it after state churches spend time and resources to convince people otherwise.
Anyhow, it's the usual, "I don't want any restrictions on my freedom until it's something that's against my morals, and you are a godless sinner if you still want freedom" bit.
