CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM 3C
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Julie Bartell, City Clerk
MEETING DATE: January 9, 2012
TOPIC: Second Reading and Adoption of Ordinance No. 23-11,
Amending Title 700, Chapters 701 and 702 of the Lino Lakes
Code of Ordinances, regarding Liquor and Beer Licensing,
adding On -Sale Brewer Taproom License
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
The Minnesota Legislature recently enacted legislation that allows state licensed breweries to
offer their product on -sale at their brewery facility. The impetus of this change was a local
based brewing company, Surley Brewing Company, who has proposed the development of a
new brewery in Minnesota that would include a restaurant, beer garden and event center. The
new legislation allows this type of on -sale activity only if the municipality in which the
brewery is located allows it.
BACKGROUND
The Lino Lakes City Council directed staff to prepare an amendment to the city's Code of
Ordinances to include this new type of license, an On -Sale Brewer Taproom License. The
attached Ordinance No. 23-11 would add On -Sale Brewer Taproom as a city issued liquor
license and would also add language to the Beer Code recognizing this type of sales. The On -
Sale Brewer Taproom license would only be available for a brewery licensed by the state that
meets both the overall requirements of the city code and the requirements of the Minnesota
Statutes and after city council approval.
One requirement of obtaining a city liquor license is location within an appropriately zoned
area. Consideration of city zoning code amendments for brewer taproom activities has been
reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Board and is currently being forwarded to the council by
the Community Development Department.
Related to adding this new license to the City Code is the establishment of an appropriate
license fee. The established fee should correlate to the city's cost of licensing and
enforcement. The background check requirement for a liquor license and the fee associated
with that will also apply.
