CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Memorandum
TO: Mayor and City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Judith S. Cox, City Cler~
SUBJECT: Certification for 2 A.M. Closing License
DATE: June 24, 2003
INFORMATIONAL
This is to advise the City Council members that I have received
two applications for the sale of alcoholic beverages until 2 A.M.,
one from Canterbury Park Concessions and one from Turtle1s Bar &
Grill.
All liquor licenses were approved at the June 17, 2003 meeting for
the year beginning July 1, 2003. The city code provides for the
sale of alcohol when sales are permitted by Minnesota Statutes,
which is now 2 A.M.
Based on the action taken by the Council on June 17, 2003, to go
with the 2 A.M. state law, I will be signing off on the
applications: ....I certify that this license(s) has been approved
in an official meeting by the governing body of the city and the
city approves the sale of alcoholic beverages until 2 A.M." I
have been in contact with the City Attorney, Jim Thomson, and he
concurs that this is an administrative procedure; however, if
Council Members prefer to act on each application, please advise
the City Administrator and the applications will be put on the
Council agendas for Council action.
