CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: JULY 22, 2013
AGENDA #: 8A
PREPARED BY: JANET RINGBERG, ACCOUNTING SPECIALIST
PRESENTED BY: FRANK BOYLES, CITY MANAGER
AGENDA ITEM: PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AN ON-SALE INTOXICAT-
ING AND SUNDAY LIQUOR LICENSE FOR ARTISAN COFFEE BISTRO
DISCUSSION: I ntroduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to conduct a public hearing to consider ap-
proval of an on-sale intoxicating and Sunday liquor license for the Artisan Coffee
Bistro, located at 16731 Highway 13 South.
Historv
On February 9, 2012, Nannette Zetzman and Ben Peters opened the Artisan Cof-
fee Bistro in the South Lake Village Mall, located at 16731 Highway 13 South. The
City Council approved an on-sale wine and on-sale 3.2 malt liquor license for them
on June 4, 2012. They have recently expanded their business location and would
like to begin offering a full bar to their guests.
Current Circumstances
Along with the request for an on-sale intoxicating liquor license, The Artisan Coffee
Bistro is also seeking approval of an extension of their liquor license to include the
space just to the north of their current licensed premise. The new space was pre-
viously occupied by Quiznos. Liquor cannot be served or consumed in the outside
seating area as it does not comply with the fencing requirements of the City's liq-
uor ordinance. The owners have signage to alert their customers that liquor can
only be consumed in the dining room. This license will be valid until June 30,
2014, at which time it will be subject to renewal along with all other liquor licenses
issued in the City.
Conclusion
The Prior Lake Police Department has completed an investigation of this applicant
to ensure that all requirements and issues concerning public safety and compli-
ance have been met.
ISSUES: All property taxes and monies owed to the City for 16731 Highway 13 South are
current.
FINANCIAL The Artisan Coffee Bistro has paid $4,000.00 which will cover the cost difference
IMPACT: of a wine and 3.2 malt liquor license ($2,500.00 paid for license starting 7/1/13)
and an on-sale intoxicating and Sunday liquor license ($6,500.00).
ALTERNATIVES: 1. Unless new information is offered at the hearing, approve the on-sale intoxicat-
ing and Sunday liquor license for the Artisan Coffee Bistro for the period July
22, 2013 to June 30, 2014.
2. Deny the license request.
RECOMMENDED Alternative #1.
