The event plans include a pig roast, corn feed, horseshoe tournament, and music. Although the hours for the various elements of the event vary, the overall hours of operation would be from 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. The Legion would like to fence off a portion of their property on the south side of their building to be used for picnic festivities on this day only. The Minnesota Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement Division requires a 1 to 4 Day Temporary On -Sale Liquor License to allow the consumption of alcohol in this outdoor area. The applicant is required to submit their request to the city requesting local approval before the application is submitted to the state for final consideration. The Legion has submitted to the City an application for both a special event permit and temporary liquor license. The applications have been reviewed by staff, including the police and fire departments, and the applicant has been provided with a list of safety conditions. The applicant has agreed to comply with the conditions and to address any other safety considerations that may arise. Background information on the applicant and the American Legion Post officers is on file at City Hall. Therefore, staff is presenting for city council consideration a resolution authorizing the issuance of a special event permit and temporary liquor license to American Legion Post 566. 29c
