City of New Brighton: The City of New Brighton does charge for Outdoor Special <br />Events. They have it under their Itinerant Food Establishment <br />License and charge $25 for the first day and $5 each additional <br />day. <br /> <br />City of Plymouth: The City of Plymouth currently does not allow businesses to sell <br />liquor at outdoor events. However, the City of Plymouth recently <br />allowed Green Mill to have an outdoor event. Attached is their <br />Staff Report along with Resolution for your reference. They did <br />not charge for this special event. <br /> <br /> <br />City of Red Wing: The City of Red Wing does not charge on-sale liquor <br />establishments an additional fee for having outdoor events. <br />However, the City of Red Wing likes this idea and is currently <br />looking at doing this as well. <br /> <br /> <br />City of Shoreview: The City of Shoreview requires a special events liquor license for <br />an establishment to be able to serve alcohol outside of their <br />licenses premises which is typically the restaurant itself. This <br />type of license must go before their City Council. The fee for this <br />type of license is $10.00 a day. <br /> <br /> <br />There are many items to consider in regard to Outdoor Special Events. The first is noise compliance. <br />The City of Plymouth placed a condition on their Resolution that states, “If noise complaints would be <br />received after 10pm, the band music would cease. This could be incorporated in the Outdoor Special <br />Event Policy to ensure that the noise compliance policy is enforced. Another consideration is parking. <br />Parking would be an issue for establishments that do not have adequate parking spaces. If these <br />establishments conduct their Outdoor Event in their parking lot, then this would greatly reduce the <br />parking spaces. Currently, Moe’s is planning an outdoor event in their parking lot; however, Moe’s is <br />currently working with the Wynnsong Movie Theatre to acquire their parking spaces for overflow. <br />Establishments like Robert’s Sports Bar and Entertainment may have issues with parking if they wanted <br />an outdoor event in their parking lot. <br /> <br />Staff could revise the Special Outdoor Liquor Endorsement to include provisions for Special Outdoor <br />Events. Fees could be issued for both the endorsement and special outdoor events. The cities above <br />did not indicate to Staff that they charge for an Outdoor Liquor Endorsement, but do charge for Special <br />Outdoor Event. Staff could draft a policy for Council consideration, to include fees, for a First Reading <br />as early as the end of June. Staff would need direction on how much the City Council would like to <br />charge for such an event. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Desaree Crane <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
