2.) “Open for Business” Requirements for Liquor Licenses 6

7

BARTZ stated that in Section 6-49 of the City ordinance it states “the phrase ‘open for 8

business’, means 150 days of full use and operation.” He stated they were trying to 9

figure out the intent of “full use and operation”. 10

11

Clerk BARTZ stated she looked thru statutes and other communities and could not 12

define what “open for business” was. 13

14

BARTZ questioned if a business was to turn the lights on for a few minutes and wasn’t 15

open for a whole day, would that then be considered a day. He questioned changing the 16

ordinance to add that a business needs to be open a minimum amount of hours per day. 17

He stated there are other businesses looking for a liquor licenses. 18

19

Karen Kosidowski-Bergen, from Krabby Karen’s stated that she is meeting the minimum 20

requirements. BARTZ stated that the driveway has not been plowed. 21

22

Kosidowski-Bergen stated she is not open for business right now and is closed from the 23

end of the year to May as she clarified when she applied for the license. 24

25

BARTZ stated he cannot see the business being open for 150 days a year. 26

27

ERNST questioned what she defines as a business day. Kosidowski-Bergen stated she is 28

there anywhere from 4-12 hours a day. 29

30

BARTZ stated everyone has a different definition of what a day is. 31

32

HASKIN stated if she is closed January thru May, almost half a year. 33

34

Mickey Loka stated, as a former business owner, he cannot see making the minimum 35

requirement more than 4 hours to be open. 36

37

Christine Vorpagel, Tomahawk Main Street, stated that 150 days a year is generous. 38

39

BARTZ clarified that by the City ordinance, Krabby Karen’s is compliant. 40

41

Mickey Loka questioned if 150 days a year is standard. Clerk BARTZ clarified it is 42

standard procedure. 43

44

Health and Safety Committee February 3, 2016 Page 3 of 4

Steve Taskay questioned if there are people knocking on the door for a liquor license. 1

Clerk BARTZ confirmed that there are other businesses looking for liquor licenses. 2

3

Mayor STOCKER stated at the state level townships are looking to the City’s for licenses 4

and are able to apply to the City for a liquor license. Clerk BARTZ stated the City does 5

not have any available. 6

7

BARTZ stated he believes that Krabby Karen’s is in a location that is within 300 feet of a 8

church. He stated that this rule does not apply to a restaurant, but the sale of alcoholic 9

beverages must be 49% and the sale of food must be 51%. BARTZ stated this is 10

something to be aware of. 11

12

3.) “Wine Walk” Information – Tomahawk Main Street, Inc. 13

14

Christine Vorpagel, Tomahawk Main Street, stated the Spring Fling art walk puts artists 15

in businesses. She stated that an addition to the Spring Fling Art Walk would be a Wine 16

Walk. She stated there would be up to 20 locations where there would be wine or craft 17

beer available. Vorpagel stated they would be able to serve the wine or craft beer as 18

under the picnic license and would have to have a licensed operator at each 19

establishment. 20

21

Chief ELVINS stated each establishment must have its own independent licensed 22

operator. Clerk BARTZ clarified that any individual can obtain a temporary operator 23

license that is valid for 2 weeks but must be approved by the Health and Safety 24

Committee and the Common Council. 25

26

Chief ELVINS questioned if consumption would be allowed outside the premises or 27

limited to the inside of the businesses. Vorpagel stated that consumption would not be 28

allowed outside, she stated they would want people inside the establishments 29

purchasing or looking at things and it would be easier to control within the 30

establishments. 31

32

Chief ELVINS clarified Tomahawk Main Street would have to go thru a distributor to 33

obtain the wine and craft beer. 34

35

HASKIN asked if the establishments would also need to obtain a liquor license. Clerk 36

BARTZ clarified that it would be covered under the picnic license held by Tomahawk 37

Main Street. 38

39

HASKIN voiced concern with the event serving alcoholic beverages. She referred to an 40

article in The Municipality magazine and stated that Wisconsin is the number one binge 41

drinking state in the nation. HASKIN reiterated that she is not here to discourage 42

alcoholic consumption, but was voicing concerns with encouraging people to drink 43

alcohol. 44
