DISCUSSION
1. Supplemental Entertainment Class B Liquor License for Brother Chimp Brewing
Administrator Bosco explained that Brother Chimp Brewing currently has a Class A license and was seeking a Class B Liquor License in order to have the ability to have extended opportunities for live music. Bosco stated that the closest residence to Brother Chimp is 200 feet away.
The Board discussed whether 200 feet from residents was far enough away to avoid noise issues and whether or not it would be prudent to restrict the time music is allowed to be played. The Board ultimately decided to apply to the license a condition that the Board has the right to review the license if there are concerns or complaints.
EXECUTIVE SESSION – None
ADJOURNMENT

Respectfully Submitted,

Village Clerk
