City Council meeting of May 19, 1997 Page 3 The Washington County Sheriffs Department responded to a neighbor's call on May 10th stating that strong beer was being consumed on the premises; that proved to be accurate. It was the Administrator's opinion that consumption of beer after business hours constitutes a violation of the liquor ordinance, and requires a liquor license violation hearing. Bob McElmury, owner of Bobber's, explained the circumstances of the deputy's visit on the 10th, and what he has done to comply with the conditions of his SUP. Goiffon made motion, Leroux seconded, to approve the issuance of a 3.2 beer and cigarette license to Robert McElmury, dba Bobber's Boats and Bait, 4444 129th Street, and eliminate the requirement for a hedge or fencing, between the lake and 129th Street, from the SUP. Miron made motion, Barnes seconded, to amend the motion to include an order to bring the business into compliance with the SUP issued by the City, including: 1. Miscellaneous equipment and parts stored on the site shall be collected and enclosed so as not to be observable from off the property. 2. The amount of dockage on the site shall be reduced to the 200' allowed. 3. Suitable plants should be planted and maintained on the property lines, as required, to screen view of the site from adjacent property. VOTE ON AMENDMENT: All aye. Motion Carried. VOTE ON ORIGINAL MOTION: All aye. Motion Carried. Barnes made motion, Miron seconded, that a SUP compliance report be placed on the City Council agenda of July 7, 1997. All aye. Motion Carried. Leroux made motion, Miron seconded, directing staff to proceed with the scheduling of a hearing to consider an alleged liquor license violation at Bobber's Boats and Bait. All aye. Motion Carried.
