Executive Director's Review/Recommendation: -No Comments to supplement this report -Comments attached. Explanation/Summary(attach supplement sheets as necessary) Summary: Ordinance No. 96-591 adds provisions to Sections 502 and 503 of the Mounds View Municipal Code addressing the issuance of a temporary liquor license for events held on City public property. This ordinance change was proposed to address the liquor usage at the Bel-Rae when renting the facility for special events and private parties. iliaction 502 deals with the issuance of the temporary license for on-sale intoxicating liquor and Section 503 is with nonintoxicating malt liquor. The ordinance requires that a temporary liquor license be issued to current liquor license holders in the City or those that hold a liquor license in adjacent Cities for events where alcohol is served. Therefore, if a resident of Mounds View rents the Bel-Rae facility for a private party and wants to serve alcohol, they must contract with a business that holds a liquor license in the City or an adjacent City. The business that holds an annual license will be required to obtain a temporary liquor license from the City for that private event. The fees for the temporary license are proposed at$35 per event with an investigation fee of$10 for those who do not currently hold a licence within the City. These fees will become part of the fee schedule and are up for Council consideration under Council Business. As part of the issuance of the temporary license, it is proposed that an insurance policy for$1 million dollars must be obtained by the license holder for the event and the City of Mounds View must be named as an additional insured on that policy. There were questions regarding the additional burden this would put on a business. I discussed this matter with our insurance agent and he has been doing research on additional premiums for a one day policy with a higher limit than required by State Law.
