CC Regular Session <br />Meeting Date: 08/28/2012 <br />By: Jim Way, Police <br />Information <br />4. 8. <br />Title: <br />Introduce Ordinance to Amend City Code Chapter 6- Alcoholic Beverages, Article I, Sec 6-4 Consumption in <br />Public Places <br />Background: <br />Current City Code does not allow for the consumption of alcohol in public places other than on the premises of an <br />establishment licensed by the city. At an August 13, 2012 City Council Work Session, staff reviewed with council, <br />cases where allowing alcohol in public places may be acceptable. An establishment licensed in the city to serve <br />alcohol within their premises could be allowed to have outdoor seating on the public sidewalk if allowed in City <br />Code. The City has a unique situation of a plaza area adjacent to a new restaurant location that may be available for <br />alcohol consumption if allowed by City Code. The plaza area may be open to other licensed liquor establishments <br />by special permit if consumption in public places is allowed. <br />Notification: <br />None at this time. <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends changing the ordinance to allow for consumption of alcoholic beverages in public places by <br />permit or license. <br />Funding Source: <br />None required. Staff time only. <br />Council Action: <br />Motion to introduce an ordinance amending City Code Chapter 6- Alcoholic Beverages, Article I, Sec 6-4 <br />Consumption in Public Places to allow for consumption in public places by permit or license. <br />Attachments <br />Alc Bev <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Jo Thieling Jo Thieling 08/22/2012 02:31 PM <br />Kurt Ulrich Kurt Ulrich 08/23/2012 03:07 PM <br />Form Started By: Jim Way Started On: 08/22/2012 10:17 AM <br />Final Approval Date: 08/23/2012 <br />
