Tampa residents may soon be able to buy alcohol on Sunday mornings — the new ordinance could be signed this December by Tampa Mayor Jane Castor.

Currently, residents need to wait until 11am to enjoy something spirited when they are out and about in the city of Tampa. The new ordinance would allow alcohol sales at restaurants and stores in Tampa beginning at 7am.
