BEVERAGES," CHAPTER 2, ENTITLED "LIQUOR LICENSING AND BEER
PERMITS" BY AMENDING SECTION 2 TO ALLOW LIVE PERFORMANCE
THEATERS TO SERVE AND CONSUME ALCOHOL ABOVE THE GROUND
FLOOR. (SECOND CONSIDERATION)
Comment: This ordinance creates another exception (the others are hotels, motels,
restaurants, and private clubs) to the general prohibition against selling and consuming
alcohol above the ground floor in establishments with liquor licenses and beer/wine
permits. The proposed ordinance would allow, for example, the Englert Theatre to
serve alcohol in the balcony. When the Englert first received its liquor license, the
applicability of the "ground floor" requirement was inadvertently overlooked. The policy
behind limiting alcohol to the ground floor includes the difficulty that police officers have
when having to remove an intoxicated person or persons involved in a physical
altercation from the second floor, and City staff does not have those safety concerns in
a venue such as the Englert Theatre. Ordinance included in July 31 Special Formal
Agenda packet. Staff is requesting expedited action.
