• <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: <br />MEETING DATE: <br />TOPIC: <br />VOTE REQUIRED: <br />BACKGROUND: <br />AGENDA ITEM 3A <br />Julie Bartell, City Clerk <br />February 22, 2010 <br />Consider First Reading of Ordinance No. 03 -10, <br />Amending Chapter 701 of the Lino Lakes City Code <br />relating to Liquor Licensing <br />Simple Majority (3/5 Vote Required) <br />The city recently received an application for an on -sale liquor license that would involve <br />an outdoor serving area. Upon review of the city code, specifically Chapter 701 <br />regarding Liquor Licensing, it was found that there is a requirement for a conditional use <br />permit for such serving areas. However the city's zoning regulations do not provide for <br />such a conditional use within the PSP, Public- Semi - Public zoning district. <br />City Attorney Langel was consulted on the matter and has recommended that, since the <br />city's licensing regulations mirror state statute and allow the city to specifically <br />determine the area in which liquor can be sold and served and it is sensible to have all <br />conditional use requirements contained in the zoning code, the requirement in the liquor <br />code can be deleted (see attached opinion). <br />As also reviewed by the city attorney, a related zoning code amendment will be <br />presented to the council that will provide clarification as to permitted ancillary uses at a <br />golf course (including restaurant and liquor facilities). <br />When zoning code amendments regarding outdoor dining areas were reviewed by the <br />Planning and Zoning Board, they recommended as part of their approval that language <br />be added to Chapter 701 (Liquor Licensing) clarifying the liquor licensee's responsibility <br />for order and containment within any outdoor serving area. The addition of language to <br />reflect that clarification is also included in attached Ordinance No. 03 -10. <br />OPTIONS: <br />1. Approve first reading of Ordinance No. 03 -10 amending Chapter 701 of the Lino <br />II Lakes Code of Ordinances amending language relative to liquor licensing and <br />outdoor serving areas <br />2. Deny first reading of said ordinance. <br />
