Safety And Licensing Committee Meeting 05/26/2021

The Safety and Licensing Committee is meeting 05/26/2021 at 5:30PM.

Most of the items on the agenda are alcohol license applications. Appleton Downtown, Inc has an application for a temporary Class B Bear and Class B Wine License to go along with their Thursday evenings Summer Music Concert Series in Jones Park. They attached their Covid-19 Mitigation Plan to their application.

The one non-license action item is voting on an update to the city’s Alcohol License Policy and regulations relating to licensing of convenience stores that sell gasoline. Per the memo from City Clerk Kami Lynch, the current Alcohol Licensing Policy “indicates that convenience stores selling gasoline may not hold a ‘Class A’ liquor license”; however, there seems to be no actual city ordinance forbidding them to hold that license. Therefore, the committee has a couple options they could take “1. Leave the provision that prohibits convenience stores selling gasoline from holding ‘Class A’ liquor licenses and direct staff to draft an ordinance on this provision. 2. Remove the provision that prohibits convenience stores selling gasoline from the policy and allow these establishments to apply for ‘Class A’ liquor licenses going forward.”
