CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

AGENDA #: 5B
PREPARED BY: JANET RINGBERG, ACCOUNTING SPECIALIST
PRESENTED BY: FRANK BOYLES, CITY MANAGER
AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING A TEMPORARY
ON-SALE LIQUOR LICENSE FOR THE PRIOR LAKE VFW
DISCUSSION: Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to consider approval of a temporary on-sale
liquor license for the Prior Lake VFW for the Prior Lake Fire Department Chicken
Feed.
History
The Prior Lake Volunteer Fire Department holds an annual chicken feed event at
the Prior Lake VFW. This event is held as a fund raiser for the Prior Lake Fire De-
partment Relief Association. The Relief Association uses the funds raised at this
event for department purchases and expenditures that are not covered by the city
budget. This year the event will be held on Sunday, September 10, 2017, from
3:00 PM until 8:00 PM.
Current Circumstances
The Prior Lake VFW currently holds a Club liquor license which allows them to sell
intoxicating liquor on the premises of 16306 Main Avenue SE. The premise for
this license does not include any outdoor areas, therefore a temporary on-sale 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. This temporary liq-
uor license will only be valid for September 10, 2017. The VFW has also applied
for a community event permit which will allow them to have a DJ playing amplified
music in the parking lot.
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
IMPACT:
The Prior Lake VFW has paid a temporary liquor license fee of $75.00 for this
event.
