Staff Contact: Sue Messer, Assistant to the City Manager/City Clerk

Summary: The Clark Gas Station has submitted an application for a Class P-2 liquor license at 1180 North 7th Street. The Class P-2 liquor license allows for the retail sale of packaged alcoholic liquor but not for consumption on the premises where sold.

The Mayor and Council approved an Ordinance Approving a Development Agreement with Liquor N Wine on June 13, 2016. The agreement included a moratorium on package liquor licenses for a period of three years following the issuance of an occupancy permit to the operator for the property. The occupancy permit was issued on May 2, 2017 so the moratorium will expire on May 2, 2020.

The Liquor Commissioner, Mayor Bearrows, has reviewed the application and has no objection to the creation of a Class P-2 liquor license for the Clark Gas Station. This action will result in a total of two Class P-2 liquor licenses in the City of Rochelle.

Recommendation:
Approve an Ordinance Amending Section 6-46 of the Municipal Code of the City of Rochelle to Create One Class P-2 Liquor License for the Clark Gas Station at 1180 North 7th Street effective May 3, 2020
