Agenda Information Memo
March 24, 2009, Eagan Special City Council Meeting
A. APPROVE TEMPORARY ON-SALE LIQUOR LICENSE AND WAIVE
LICENSE FEE FOR TRINITY SCHOOL AT RIVER RIDGE FOR A
SPRING GALA EVENT ON APRIL 4, 2009
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
To approve the temporary on-sale liquor license and waive the license fee for Trinity
School at River Ridge for a spring gala event on Apri14, 2009.
FACTS:
- At the March 16, 2009 City Council meeting, a representative from Trinity School
requested a temporary on-sale liquor license be issued to them for their spring gala
event planned for April 4, 2009. The license application had not been submitted to
stafF for review nor had it been formally scheduled for Council action. Because the
license was not ready for consideration by the Council on March 16 and the next
regular meeting of the Council would follow the date of the school's event, a special
City Council meeting was scheduled for March 24, 2009 for the purpose of acting on
this item.
- Trinity School has requested that the $150.00 license fee be waived since they are a
non-profit school.
- The application form was reviewed and deemed in order by staff. Following
Council approval, the application will be forwarded to the Deparhnent of Public
Safety/Liquor Control Division for their approval.
