ATTAC�TTS: Amendment to the City Ordinance APP D Y:
fram the City A�torney.
The serving of intoxicating beuerages within the faciliCy owned by a
municipality is subject to �rarious state and local regulations. In short,
intoxicating beverages can on3� be served in our Community Center by a
holder of an an-sale liquor license within the City of Rosemaunt or a
municipality adjacent to t'he City of Rosemount {Apple Valle�r, Eagan, Inver
Grove Heights, Coates, and Lakeville) . Another provision under State law
requires the sale of at l.east one Minnesota-produeed beer whenever beer is
served in the Center.
In developing an amendment to the City' s liquor regulations, the Community
Center Commission established the following criteria:
1. Comply with state and 2ocal laws and regulations.
2 . Serve the best interests of the customer.
3 . Serve the best interests of the Rosemount on-sale liquor provider.
4. Protect the City and the custorner from a legal standpoint.
The Community Center Commission proposes to require annual City Council
approval for on-sale liquor preaviders located in Rosemount or in the above
municipalities to serve intoxicating beverages, beer, and wine, at the
Rosemount Community Center. The annual license fee for this privilege
would be $100, with exception to the Rosemount providers, who would be
charged no fee. An additianal per even� license fee ot $30 would be
charged to all liquor providers. The license fees will offset the cast of '
confirming the insurance and the history of each provider. j
The customers renting our .facilities would be supplied a list of all
approved liquor providers . The customer would then contact and make
arrangements with the liquor provider af their choice. After the custamer
chooses a liquor provider, this provider purchases an event license for $30
and provides the City proof of insurance per each event.
