Revised Information – distributed 9/10/19
Summary
Review of a further revision to the proposed BYO (bring-your-own beer/wine) ordinance
proposal.
Background
Since the packet materials were published for the September 5th Public Safety Committee
meeting (cancelled) and the September 11th Public Safety Committee, staff has continued to
receive negative feedback on the BYO ordinance as previously proposed.
Based on the negative feedback received, staff has further revised the ordinance to
address BYO regarding the specific proposal from Flight Tasting Room and Bottle Shoppe only.
The proposed ordinance as further revised would only allow businesses with a Class A-1 liquor
license to offer BYO for private events that are held in an area of the business that is not open to
the general public. These private events cannot be held more than once per month and a separate
BYO license is required.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the attached revised ordinance.
