$570,000 plus the $250,000 build -out totals $820,000, so the minimum investment <br />standard would not be met. <br />On -Sale Intoxicating Liquor License — five Licenses available by City Code, but an <br />additional three licenses are available by State Statute. Current license holders are <br />Brady's, Gordies, Hoggsbreath, Little Venetian, and Saxon Lanes. There is no food <br />service requirement in the ordinance for this type of liquor license, and businesses <br />holding this type of licenses are the more typical "bar". <br />If the Council is interested in providing a liquor license for the event center, it would be staff's <br />recommendation that a third license category he added. One option would be the creation of an <br />On -Sale Restaurant -Event Center Intoxicating Liquor License. The reason for this <br />recommendation would be to tie an event center business to food service to avoid the situation <br />the City had in the past with the Bangkok business that operated from this same location and was <br />essentially a bar/club that generated numerous police calls. The Council could tie specific <br />conditions to the new license category, some of which could be: <br />o Eliminating the minimum investment requirements that exist under the "On -Sale <br />Restaurant Intoxicating Liquor License"; <br />o Requiring a full-service kitchen; <br />o Minimum of 10,000 square feet for an event center; <br />o Requiring food service at all events; <br />o Requiring security at all events where liquor will be served, while maintaining the <br />right to require enhanced security at any time in the future should the need arise <br />or it is recommended by the Ramsey County Sheriff's Department; <br />o Other. <br />If the new license category is created, staff would recommend that the City Attorney draft an <br />ordinance amendment addressing whatever conditions the Council feels necessary. <br />With regard to the application materials presented by the applicant, those materials are in order. <br />There is some information pending at this time, which includes a Certificate of Liquor Liability <br />Insurance, Sheriff's Background Checks, and Worker's Compensation Insurance. This <br />information is in process and may be available for Wednesday's meeting. <br />cc: John Sonnack <br />2 <br />
