The event plans include barbeque, <br />beverages and live music. The hours for the various elements of the event vary but music <br />is limited to the hours of 3:00 to 7:00 p.m. <br />The Legion would like to fence off a portion of their property on the south and east side <br />of their building to be used for picnic festivities for these events only. The Minnesota <br />Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement Division requires a 1 to 4 Day Temporary On -Sale <br />Liquor License to allow the consumption of alcohol in this outdoor area. The applicant is <br />required to submit their request to the city requesting local approval before the <br />application is submitted to the state for final consideration. <br />The Legion has submitted to the City an application for both a special event permit and <br />temporary liquor license. The applications have been reviewed by staff, including the <br />police and fire departments, and the applicant has been provided with a list of safety <br />conditions. The applicant has agreed to comply with the conditions and to address any <br />other safety considerations that may arise. <br />Therefore, staff is presenting for city council consideration a resolution authorizing the <br />issuance of a special event permit and temporary liquor license to American Legion Post <br />566. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Approve Resolution No. 12 -78, authorizing issuance of a special event permit and 1 -4 <br />day temporary on sale liquor license for the American Legion Post 566 Blue Heron Days <br />Family Picnic. <br />
