June 1, 1998
Renewal of Liquor Licenses
Liquor licenses are renewed on a yearly basis and the license year runs from
July I to June 30. Attached are the liquor establishments who have
requested liquor license renewals. All of the establishments have submitted
the appropriate documentation and license fees. Background checks are
necessary for liquor on sale, wine, and club licenses and have been completed
on all establishments applying for these licenses.
A compliance check was recently conducted on all establishments selling
liquor in Sherburne County. There was a 92.6 percent rate of compliance
throughout the county and a 91 percent compliance rate throughout the city
of Elk River. I will be sending a letter to all licensees reminding them to
check ID's and to also inform the establishments that the City of Elk River is
committed to reducing under age access to alcohol products and will continue
to ensure that liquor is not sold to minors.
Minnesota Statute 340A.413 limits the number of On Sale liquor licenses in
all cities. The city of Elk River is a 3ra Class city with a population of 10,000-
20,000. Cities of the 3ra Class are allowed 12 On Sale liquor licenses. The
city of Elk River currently has eight On Sale licenses, leaving four On Sale
licenses available at this time. The number of On Sale licenses allowed for
the city of Elk River will increase to 18 when the city reaches the status of 2na
Class with a population over 20,000.
The City Council may also issue On Sale licenses in excess of the authorized
number by a majority vote directing a question to go on a ballot at either a
special election or a general election. This data is presented to the Council
so that the Council knows where the city stands in regard to the number of
On Sale liquor licenses in the city of Elk River.
Action Requested
Council motion to approve liquor licenses as attached.
