The purpose of this agenda item is to consider approval of a temporary

Hi StOry
State statute allows non-profit organizations to apply for temporary liquor
licenses as a means to raise funds for their organizations. Temporary
licenses may be issued for up to four consecutive days. The City may not
issue more than three (3) four-day temporary license, four (4) three day
licenses, six (6) two day licenses, or twelve (12) one day license, in any
combination not to exceed 23 days per year to any one organization or for
any one location. No more than one temporary license may be issued to
any one organization or for any one location within any 30-day period,
unless the licenses are issued in connection with an official community
event.
Current Circumstances
The Prior Lake Chamber of Commerce has applied for one three day
temporary on-sale intoxicating liquor license. They plan to sell wine and
beer at Lakefront Days on August 8, 9 and 10, 2013, as part of their fund
raising efforts.
Issues
The Prior Lake Chamber of Commerce was issued a temporary on-sale
intoxicating liquor license for their ladies night out event on September 17,
2009. As part of their ongoing liquor compliance checks, the Prior Lake
Police Department conducted a compliance check of this event to ensure
that no liquor was being sold to minors. The Chamber of Commerce
failed this check when liquor was sold to a minor assisting the Police
Department. This liquor violation has been processed through the court
system and all fines and civil penalties have been satisfied.
Since this incident occurred the Chamber has modified its sales
processes, incorporated training and as a result has been tested each
year and passed.
Conclusion
The Prior Lake Police Department has completed an investigation of this
applicant to ensure that all requirements and issues concerning public
safety and compliance have been met. The Prior Lake Chamber of
Commerce has provided proof of liquor liability insurance for this event.
FINANCIAL The Prior Lake Chamber of Commerce has paid a license fee of $75.00
IMPACT: for this event.
ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve the temporary on-sale intoxicating liquor license for the
Prior Lake Chamber of Commerce for August 8, 9 and 10, 2013.
