Memo to Mayor & Council Dated 12/11/87 Re: 1988 <br />Liquor License <br />H. Chapter 4 - Beer, Wine and Liquor Licensing and <br />Regulation <br />ISSUE <br />1. Notificiation to Council of upcoming liquor licnense <br />renewals. <br />2. Provide opportunity to discuss possible on -sale conditional <br />license. <br />INTRODUCTION - The two liquor licenses within the City are up for <br />renewal by January 1, 1989. While there have been no problems <br />over the past year with the off -sale operation, the on -sale <br />operation has presented problems as outlined in Attachment C. <br />DISCUSSION - The City has been concerned about violations that <br />relate to the on -sale business have occurred but had delayed <br />bringing this matter to the Council because: <br />A. An expectation that the business was going to be <br />sold. <br />B. It may be more appropriate to take action as a <br />condition of license renewal than as a penalty during <br />the term of the license. <br />The incidents that occurred were not charged. The Officer <br />intervened between the 20 minute "no more consumption" and "30 <br />minutes must be closed" in the first incident. The second <br />incident was not directly traced to Jimmies and that individual <br />is no longer employed. Charges were filed against the driver but <br />not the passenger who worked at Jimmies. It was felt there was <br />insufficient evidence to charge the owner. <br />
