CC Work Session 2. 1. <br />Meeting Date: 05/10/2016 <br />Information <br />Title: <br />Alcoholic Beverages in City Parks <br />Purpose/Background: <br />In 1978, two City of Ramsey ordinances were enacted that prohibit alcohol in city parks with few exceptions, In <br />2010 and 2011, City Council approved special events permits allowing alcohol for the concert series in the Draw <br />Park. In 2011, Council discussed amending City Code to allow for alcohol in some city parks. No further Council <br />action was taken and city ordinances were not amended related to alcohol in the parks. <br />Staff has no concerns related to the consumption of alcohol at the Draw during concert events. Staff would like <br />Council direction on either amending current City Code or continuance with the special events permit process. <br />Conflicts or ambiguity in ordinances are problematic for enforcement. <br />Timeframe: <br />30 minutes <br />Funding Source: <br />None <br />Responsible Party(ies): <br />Police Chief Katers <br />Outcome: <br />To receive direction re alcohol in city parks. <br />CIty Ordinances <br />Attachments <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Kurt Ulrich Jo Thieling 05/05/2016 03:29 PM <br />Patrick Brama Patrick Brama 05/05/2016 04:06 PM <br />Form Started By: Jeff Katers Started On: 05/05/2016 02:49 PM <br />Final Approval Date: 05/05/2016 <br />
