AGENDA ITEM: Brockway Wine License AGENDA SECTION:
PREPARED BY: Thomas D. Burt, City Administrator AGENDA NO.
ATTACHMENTS: APPROVED BY:
Julie Lenertz of Brockway Golf Club has submitted an application for an on-sale wine license. She
currently holds a 3.2%malt liquor license. She wants the wine license so she can sell strong beer
rather than 3.2%beer. Rosemount City Code states that a holder of an on-sale wine license who is
also licensed to se113.2%beer on-sale and whose gross receipts are at least 60% attributable to the
sale of food may sell strong beer without an additional license. According to Ms. Lenertz,
Brockway Golf Club meets the 60%provision; and if granted the wine license, she would have to
attest to this each year at renewal time.
This application for on-sale wine is similar to Tops Pizza,which was granted the on-sale wine so
that he could sell strong beer.
The City Code also states that on-sale wine licenses must be issued only to restaurants meeting the
qualifications of M.S. 340A.404, subd. 5. This law states that restaurants must have seating for at
least 25 guests at one time. Ms. Lenertz advised she also meet this requirement. Her menu at the
clubhouse consists of burgers, hot dogs, chips, muffins, candy bars, and soft drinks.
Sue has discussed this application with Attorney LeFevere who feels the applicant meets the
provisions of the City Code and State Statutes. The public hearing is scheduled for May 4, 1999.
The notice will be placed in the paper on Apri123, 1999.
