AGENDA#: 5C
PREPARED BY: JANET RINGBERG, LICENSE CLERK
PRESENTED BY: FRANK BOYLES, CITY MANAGER
AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING A TEMPORARY
LIQUOR LICENSE EXTENSION FOR THE PRIOR LAKE VFW
DISCUSSION: Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to consider approval of a temporary liquor li-
cense extension for the Prior Lake VFW.
History
State statute 340A.404 states that on-sale intoxicating Club liquor licenses may be
issued to clubs or congressionally chartered veterans organization that have been
in existence for at least three years. The Prior Lake VFW has held a Club liquor li-
cense for many years.
Current Circumstances
On August 1, 2014 the Prior Lake VFW, along with the Prior Lake Area Chamber
of Commerce, will be holding a "Guys Night Out 2014 Classic Car and Motorcycle
Show" in the parking lot of the VFW, located at 16306 Main Avenue SE from 6:00
PM until 9:00 PM. They plan to sell beer and food in the outdoor area. The Prior
Lake VFW currently holds a Club liquor license which allows them to sell intoxicat-
ing liquor on the premises of 16306 Main Avenue SE. The premise for this license
does not include any outdoor areas, therefore a temporary extension of their li-
cense is required for this event. An area of the parking lot adjacent to the west
side of the VFW building will be fenced off with two entrances from the outside.
Security guards will be at each entrance throughout the event. The extension of
the liquor license will only be valid for the fenced area of the parking lot on August
1, 2014.
The City has also approved an outdoor event permit as a DJ will be playing in the
parking lot during this event.
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.
FINANCIAL IM- The Prior Lake VFW has paid a license fee of$75.00 for this event.
PACT:
ALTERNATIVES: 1. A motion and second as part of the consent agenda to approve the resolution
authorizing a temporary liquor license extension for the Prior Lake VFW.
2. Deny the license request.
