CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: OCTOBER 16, 2017
AGENDA #: 5K
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
intoxicating liquor license for the Prior Lake VFW.
History
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 is-
sued 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 VFW, Village Liquor and several other businesses in Prior Lake are
planning a fund raising event to benefit the CAP Agency. This is an annual event
held in the South Lake Village Mall. This fund raising event will be held on Thurs-
day, November 2, 2017, and will include a wine tasting. The Prior Lake VFW cur-
rently holds a Club Liquor License which allows them to sell intoxicating liquor on
the premises of their club at 16306 Main Avenue SE. The Prior Lake VFW is re-
quired by state statute to apply for a temporary on-sale intoxicating license for this
event because it is not being held on the premises for which they are licensed.
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. The Prior Lake VFW has provided proof of liquor liability in-
surance for this event.
FINANCIAL
IMPACT:
The Prior Lake VFW has paid a license fee of $75.00 for this event.
ALTERNATIVES: 1. Motion and second as part of the consent agenda to approve the temporary
