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 8, 2019, 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 8, 2019. 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. ALTERNATIVES: 1.
