Sunday liquor license in order to sell intoxicating liquor at the
Pomodori Italian Cafe Inc. to be located at 15750 Highway 13. Ms.
Piazza plans on opening her new restaurant on August 22, 2004.
Prior Lake City Code Section 301.503 provides that with respect to a
liquor license request, the City Council "... shall hear testimony from
any person who requests to be heard for or against the granting of the
license. After the investigation and hearing the Council shall, in its
discretion, grant or deny the issuance of the license." The purpose of
tonight's public hearing is to consider the issuance of an on-sale
intoxicating liquor license and a Sunday liquor license for Nancy
Piazza dba Pomodori Italian Cafe Inc. The Council should hear the
staff report, open the public hearing to receive testimony, close the
public hearing and then take action on this request.
Ms. Piazza has paid the prorated fee of $4,946.66 for the period of
August 22, 2004 to June 30, 2005 for the on-sale intoxicating license
and $200.00 for the Sunday liquor license. Any new license issued
and renewed on July 1,2005 will require paYment of the full year on-
sale intoxicating license fee of $5,300.00 and $200.00 for the Sunday
liquor license. Ms. Piazza has provided the City with all required
documents and has provided proof of liquor liability insurance. All
county taxes are current for 15750 Highway 13. The Prior Lake Police
Department has completed its investigation and has found no reason to
deny this license request.
