• <br /> Page 12 <br /> May 13, 1996 <br /> Mounds View City Council <br /> due to its close proximity to the Sunrise Christian Daycare/Church. Three potential tenants have been <br /> found for the Bridgeman property,all of whom have requested a liquor license. In order to allow this,an <br /> amendment would need to be made to Section 502.04 of the Liquor Code. An amendment has been <br /> drafted by Bob Long which would allow a license to be issued within 50 feet of the property line of a <br /> school or church only for those property that abut Highway 10 between Long Lake Road and Silver Lake <br /> Road. Ms.Bennett stated she spoke with the pastor at Sunrise Methodist who stated he would announce <br /> the proposed change to his congregation. <br /> Mayor Linke stated a list of eight signatures had been submitted to the city indicating their desire to NOT <br /> have liquor served at the site. Additionally,one Planning Commission member also called to oppose the <br /> change to the code. <br /> Ms.Blanchard indicated that she had a problem with amending the ordinance for just one area. She feels it <br /> could set a precedence for other areas. <br /> Ms.Bennett noted that she feels it will be difficult to attract a sit-down style restaurant without a liquor <br /> 'license. <br /> Bob Longcommented that this is not a zoning11111 <br /> change,therefore the city can set whatever distance <br /> requirements are reasonable in regard to liquor licenses. This could be done for a specific geographical <br /> area. <br /> Ms.Bennett noted that the problem with that particular area is that the church property goes all the way to <br /> Highway 10. <br /> Alice Frits. 8072 Long Lake Road stated the new pedestrian bridge will allow kids to cross over right in <br /> front of the restaurant. <br /> MOTION/SECOND: Hankner/Quick to Approve the Introduction of Ordinance No. 582,Amending the <br /> Mounds View Municipal Code Section 502.04, Subdivision 2(c)Entitled, "Intoxicating Liquor, <br /> Eligibility". <br /> VOTE: 5 ayes 0 nays Motion Carried <br /> Mayor Linke noted that a Public Hearing on this item will be held on Tuesday,May 28, 1996. <br /> REPORTS: <br /> Report of Council members: <br /> Quick: No report. <br /> Blanchard: No report. • <br /> Hankner: No report. <br />
