RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the license request for the Church of St. Michael for Saturday and Sunday April 25 and

BACKGROUND:
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 issued for up to four

(4) three day licenses, six (6) two day licenses, or twelve (12) one day license, in any
combination not to exceed twelve 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.
The Church of St. Michael is planning their annual April Fest event for Saturday and Sunday
April 25 and 26, 2020. They will have the same type of set up as previous years where alcohol
will only be sold in an enclosed tented area and volunteer workers will be on hand to ensure that
no alcohol will be sold to minors. As in past years, St. Michael’s will hire off duty Prior Lake
police officers to patrol during live music events in the evening.
The Prior Lake Police Department has completed an investigation of this applicant to ensure
that all requirements and issues concerning public safety and compliance have been met. The
Church of St. Michael has provided proof of liquor liability insurance for this event.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The Church of St. Michael’s has paid the $75.00 license fee for this event.

1. Motion and second to approve as part of the consent agenda the license request
for the Church of St. Michael for Saturday and Sunday April 25 and 26, 2020.
