Renewal applications were sent to license holders in April for completion. The applications have been completed and all inspections that are required by City Code, will be completed by the Fire Department throughout the year.

All paperwork must be in order, and all fees must be paid in full, prior to issuance of the licenses.

In accordance with section 114.02 (I) of the City Code, no on-sale liquor license shall be granted for operation on any premises which does not have city water. The Council may waive this requirement for any business having obtained an on-sale license prior to July 1, 1997, or a business operating at a premises where potable water is supplied from a well, as long as water quality from the well is tested and approved by the Minnesota Department of Health in accordance with their standards.

Staff has contacted the Minnesota Department of Health and Environmental Services regarding the wells at Global Restaurant Group dba Dangerfield's Restaurant and Stonebrooke Golf Club to verify that they have been tested, and meet water quality requirements.
