The outdoor event plans include barbeque and beverages. The Legion would like to fence off a portion of their property on the south and east side of their building to be used for picnic festivities for these events 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 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. 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. RECOMMENDATION: Approve Resolution No. 13 -83, authorizing issuance of a special event permit and 1 -4 day temporary on sale liquor license for the American Legion Post 566 Blue Heron Days Family Picnic.
