Analysis of Primary Issues
1. When can Baldy's reapply for a 3.2% Malt Liquor and Wine License?
The Finding of Fact from the Council previous action state that the applicants
may not reapply for a 3.2 % Malt Liquor and Wine License until Jan 1, 2012.
2. What are the differences between this application and the previous application?
The previous application was for a different type of liquor license. With a 3.2 %
Malt Liquor and Wine License, it is actually possible to serve malt liquor with a
higher concentration of alcohol, as is the case with wine under certain conditions.
A 3.2 % Malt Liquor License only allows the sale of the lower alcohol content
beer.
3. Does the Police Department have any reservations concerning this application?
The police department has examined the license type requested as well as the
application and background information submitted by the applicant and has no
reservations for the following reasons
o All Information requested was received on this application.
o The nature of a 3.2% On -Sale beer license has limitations that satisfy the
concerns of the police department while allowing Baldy's BBQ to operate
within its business plan.
o Past experience with restaurants with a 3.2% on -sale beer license provide
the police department with a history of operation under this license type.
