The City of Mounds View issued an intoxicating liquor license for Moe’s effective July 1, 2014, and their renewal is before the City Council for consideration. Moe’s Intoxicating Liquor License will expire June 30, 2015. Discussion: The notice of this public hearing was sent out to residences within a 350 feet radius, and the Notice of Public Hearing was published in the City’s official newspaper. Moe’s has submitted their city liquor license application materials and the applicable fees. The following investigations and inspections have been conducted to determine whether there is cause for the City to deny the above referenced intoxicating liquor license application: Police Inquiry and Investigations (Mounds View Police Department) Staff has submitted a criminal background check to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, and has not received the criminal background check. This liquor license renewal will be contingent on a satisfactory background check. Utility Billing Inquiry (City of Mounds View) Property taxes on this property are current. However, Moe’s has a delinquent utility bill in the amount of $3,298.42 (3rd and 4th Quarter of 2014). In accordance with the City’s Liquor Code, Moe’s is currently ineligible for a liquor license renewal under §502.04, subd. 2a of the City Code, which states: No intoxicating liquor or wine license shall be granted for operation on any premises on which taxes, assessments, utility bills or other financial claims of the City are delinquent or unpaid. Renewal is contingent on payment of the delinquent utility bill in full. Fire Inspection (City of Mounds View Fire Marshal) The City’s Fire Marshal will be inspecting the building on Thursday, May 7, 2015. This license renewal will be contingent on a satisfactory fire inspection.
