BACKGROUND:
The City Code prohibits any person to sell, barter, furnish, or give alcoholic beverages to a minor
unless such person is the parent or guardian of the minor, and then only for consumption in the
household of such parent or guardian. Licensees are subject to a fine that may be imposed by the City
or by the State of up to $2,000 and revocation or suspension ofthe license of up to 60 days.
Staff is ready to proceed with the setting of a hearing date to consider an alcohol violation that
occurred during the alcohol sales compliance check on November 9, 2007. This is the first violation
for the Great Lakes Inc., dba Shakopee Ballroom, 2400 East 4th Avenue, within a three-year period.
Under the current ordinance, adopted by City Council on July 2, 2002, the penalties for a first or
second incident shall be imposed and administered by the City Administrator upon an admission by
the licensee that the licensee furnished or sold an alcoholic beverage to a minor. Any licensee with a
first or second violation within a three-year period who admits to the violation and does not ask for a
hearing will not need to appear before City Council.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Set a hearing for Tuesday, October 21,2008, at 7:00 p.m., or thereafter, to review the actions of Great
Lakes mc., dba Shakopee Ballroom, 2400 East 4th Avenue.
