Consent Agenda fess,Partnefs�'�s Public Hearings X Council Business Item Description: Consideration of Adoption of Ordinance No. 582 Amending the Mounds View Municipal Code Section 502.04, Subdivision 2 (c) entitled "Intoxicating Liquor,Eligibility" Administrator's Review/Recommendation: J -No Comments to supplement this report -Comments attached. Explanation/Summary(attach supplement sheets as necessary) Summary: MEMORANDUM to: Chuck Whiting, Clerk\Administrator from: Cathy Bennett, Economic Development Coordinator Ordinance No. 582 was presented to the Council for Introduction at the May 13, 1996 meeting. I would like to propose a slight change to the ordinance that restricts those locations that are under 500' from a church or school to enable a liquor license but that they must abide by the requirement that the licensed premise must receive at lease 60% of its annual gross sales revenue from the sale of food and prove this true on an annual 110 basis to enable them to renew the license. This would change the code for the entire City verses only for the locations abutting Highway 10 between Long Lake Road and Silver Lake Road as proposed on May 13th. e suggested change would read as follows: No license shall be granted for any premises within five hundred feet(500') of the property line of any school or church in Mounds View except that the 500'restriction shall not apply and a license may be granted for licensed premises that receives at least sixty percent(60%1 of it's annual gross sales revenue from the sale of food. The licensee must provide evidence to the City on an annual basis as part of the license renewal process that the licensee has complied with the minimum sixty percent(60%) food sales requirement of this section. Failure to comply with the minimum sixty percent(60%1 food sales requirement of this section shall be cause for suspension, revocation or denial of renewal of this license. I met with the chair of the administrative council for Sunrise Methodist Church and explained the proposed changes and process for public hearing. They are concerned about having a bar in the location and did not like the language that was proposed on the May 13th meeting because it singled out Sunrise Methodist Church. He felt better about the language change as proposed above. I suspect that there will be a few representatives from the Church at the public hearing. This ordinance change is up for formal adoption by the Council. RECOMMENDATION:. Approve the amended ordinance as attached
