Recommendation
By Minute Motion, permit the sale, possession, and consumption of wine and/or spirits
at the Kentucky Derby: A Day at the Races scheduled for May 4, 2013, at the Joslyn
Cove Senior Center.
Discussion
Since the Senior Center is located on City -owned property, Bob Elias, Social Services
Director, at the request of the Joslyn Center Board/Interim Executive Director, has
requested City Council approval of the sale, possession, and consumption of wine
and/or spirits for above event.
City staff received the request for approval to sell, possess, and consume alcohol for
the event; however, staff inadvertently did not place on the City Council Agenda for
consideration. Unfortunately, the Department of Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC)
requires that applications be signed by the property owner (the City) and submitted ten
days prior to the event. The next City Council Meeting is not scheduled until May 9,
2013, which is after the event date and less than the ten days required by ABC;
therefore, staff is requesting City Council consideration at the April 25, 2013, meeting.
Also, prior to the sale and consumption of alcohol on City -owned property, the City
Council must grant a variance from the prohibition of same.
