This new law authorizes off -sale between the hours of 11:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on Sundays. The legislation passed during the regular session allowed cities to be more restrictive on the hours of sale but not to opt out of the law. However, as part of this year's special legislative session, the law was changed so that cities can now be more restrictive than state law on days of sale as well. So cities may choose to concur with all aspects of the state law or: a) opt out of Sunday off -sales; or b) allow Sunday off -sales but choose to be more restrictive on the hours of sale. City staff and the city attorney have reviewed the city's current liquor regulations and prepared the attached ordinance that would bring the city's language into concurrence with the new state law. The council approved the 1' Reading of Ordinance No. 03-17 on June 12, 2017. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the 2nd Reading and Adoption of Ordinance No. 03-17, Amending Chapter 701 of the Lino Lakes Code of Ordinances relating to Liquor and Beer, to allow the off -sale of liquor on Sundays.
