Questions we already know the answers to but are afraid to admit it.
1) Will NIU need to apply for a liquor license with the City of DeKalb and pay full fees?
2) Will NIU have to pay local home rule restaurant and bar tax?
3) Will local businesses be able to compete?
The answer to all of the above is probably almost definitely NO.
