MINUTES <br /> CITY COUNCIL <br /> JUNE 14, 2006 <br /> would increase costs as the establishment would have to provide annual <br /> training. <br /> Duray pointed out discussion at the public hearing held earlier this year <br /> relative to tying a liquor license to either a building square foot age basis <br /> or amount of liquor sales. Duray reported that the business owners are <br /> supportive of Mr. LaValle's suggestion that increases by tied to the City's <br /> gross levy increase. This would provide an increase for the City based on <br /> budget costs, while being allowing the business owners to continue to <br /> operate as they are doing. <br /> Kcis stated that he had no problem with not imposing a City requirement <br /> for server training as long as he is assured that this training is being done. <br /> Duray reported that based on the insurance incentive, the training occurs at <br /> least every two years. <br /> 'there was no one else present from the general public wishing to <br /> comment on this matter. <br /> [7pon motion by LaValle, seconded by Montour, the public hearing was <br /> closed. <br /> Blesener suggested rounding up the proposed increases so that the On-Sale <br /> Liquor License would be increased from $3,500 to $3,600 and the On-Sale <br /> Wine License would be increased from $500 to $525. LaValle questioned <br /> the aced to deviate from the methodology of tying the increase fo the gross <br /> levy increase. Montour noted that a new Council could change this <br /> methodology at any time. <br /> Blesener stated that he would like to lie increases to the gross levy <br /> increase for the next five years, but rounding the increases up to the next <br /> $]00 for the On-Sale License and the next $25 for the On-Sale Wine <br /> License. LaValle disagreed and felt the increases should be tied to the <br /> gross levy increase without rounding. <br /> The City Administrator noted that State Statute requires that a public <br /> hearing be held when considering On-Sale Liquor License increases. <br /> C'riven the City's budgeting process and the fact that gross levy increases <br /> are determined year-to-year, he felt a public hearing would have to be held <br /> each year on the increase. However, the City Council can go on record as <br /> supporting the methodology of tying the increase to the gross levy <br /> increase for the next five years. <br /> <br /> . Mr. Blesener inU•oduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: <br /> 3 <br /> 4 <br /> <br />
