RESOLUTION AMENDING OPERATIONAL BUSINESS HOURS
LAKEVILLE MUNICIPAL LIQUOR STORES
MEMORIAL DAY AND LABOR DAY
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve resolution amending
operational business hours of the Lakeville Municipal Liquor Stores to include limited hours of
sales on Memorial Day and Labor Day
Passage of this motion will result in the Liquor Stores remaining open from the hours of 10:00
a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on both Memorial Day and Labor Day.
Overview
In order to remain competitive with industry competition, Liquor Department staff is
recommending that the Municipal Liquor Stores remain open limited hours on both Memorial
Day and Labor Day holidays.
The Liquor Stores are currently open all other holidays as allowed by State Statute with the
exception of New Year’s Day.
Primary Issues to Consider
• Will remaining open these holidays increase sales?
• How will this affect staffing and are they paid overtime for these holidays?

Staff Analysis of Primary Issues
Consideration for Change In Operational Business Hours for
Lakeville Municipal Liquors Stores on Both Memorial Day and Labor Day.
• Will remaining open these holidays increase sales?
It is likely that we will see very little increase or no increase in sales as customers tend
to purchase more product in preparation of the holiday if you are closed. In addition
Monday holidays are very dependent of the weather. This recommendation is based
solely on the purpose of meeting customer expectations and in keeping up with
neighboring competition.
• How will this affect staffing and are they paid overtime for these holidays?
Stores will be staffed utilizing exempt employees and permanent part-time employees.
Exempt employees will take an alternative day off to the holiday and part-time liquor
employees do not qualify for time and a half on holidays.
