Again, thanks to everyone who worked on getting this feature added/fixed. As I was leaving a restaurant last night, I noticed a 51% sign on the register area (and was carrying). I didn't think to look closely as I entered as it was definitely a restaurant first and bar second (although even if I had, I'm not sure I'd found it where it was) . Anyway, looked it up today and sure enough it's incorrectly posted. This site is a HUGE help to be able to verify information quickly and easily.

Theoretically (I'm not a programmer) couldn't this info be parsed into an Excel or csv format and put into an Android or iPhone app that would use location services to search for 51+% locations near your current address? Wouldn't think it would be too difficult...

Another use for this feature is to list all 51%+ establishments in a particular area (to see if there's any "surprises" in your area):

Go to the TABC website and click on Public inquiry, then click on the option for, "Create a list of licenses or permits".
Select the options you want listed. I listed the two counties of the city I live in (Potter and Randall), and left the dates blank.
Select Excel as the output format.
Open the downloaded Excel file.
Click on the data tab on the toolbar at the top.
Click on the Filter Button
Click on the down arrow on the far right column and make sure only the "Red" checkbox is checked.



Now you'll have a list of all the 51%+ businesses in the area.
