Re: 2010 Liquor License Renewals
Recommended City Council Action:
Approve the attached Exhibit A, 2010-2011 liquor licenses renewals.
Background Information:
Liquor licenses have a July 1-June 30 license period. For the 2010/2011 license term,
renewal notices have been processed. Licensees must complete all renewal paperwork,
pay any current and outstanding fees, and submit appropriate insurance paperwork to be
eligible for a license renewal. In cases where minor renewal information may be missing
(e.g. a form is missing a signature), staff generally recommends approval of the license
renewal, contingent upon those minor items being addressed before the renewal
information is submitted to the State of Minnesota. Infrequently, a licensee has not
completed the renewal process sufficiently or has chosen not to renew their license, and
staff would recommend that liquor license not be renewed at this time. In that case, the
liquor license would expire on June 30 of the current license year. That expiration does
not preclude a licensee from completing the paperwork and applying for a liquor license
at a later date.
2010/2011 license renewal recommendation
:
Attached to this memo is a list of the licensees recommended for license renewal
approval for the license period of July 1, 2010-June 30, 2011. There are three current
licensees that are not being recommended for renewal:
The Levee Café—Renewal fees not submitted
Mississippi Belle—Renewal information or fees not submitted; current
(2009/2010) license fees outstanding
Rivertown Liquors—no renewal information or fees not submitted; currently
out of business
Those applicants not being recommended for renewal have been contacted a number of
times advising that their renewal for 2010/2011 would not be recommended with the
outstanding items. The most recent contact was Tuesday, June 15, 2010.
Restaurants
—currently, Hastings can issue fifteen on-sale licenses. Establishments
which meet the definition of restaurant, club, theater, hotel, or bowling center are
excluded from the total number of on-sale licenses a city can issue. As part of each
year’s renewal, applicants were asked to provide a copy of their restaurant license, if they
have one, to be certain that the City is in compliance with those exemption regulations.
The information provided indicates that the City remains in compliance with the number
of liquor licenses it can issue. Fifteen of 23 on-sale and club licenses meet the exclusion
criteria.
If you have any questions about the license renewals, please let me know.
