Council authorizes smoke shop license transfer to new location and waives related fee
Summary
The City Council approved a license relocation for Moline's Smoke Time LLC (doing business as Moline's Smoke Time and Vapor Shop) after a fire-related move, and members voted to waive the relocation fee as part of the action.
The Moline City Council approved a request to authorize a license for Moline's Smoke Time LLC to operate at a new location following a fire-related relocation and voted to waive the associated licensing fee.
Council discussion confirmed the action authorizes use of Chapter 22 (licensing) to increase the number of permitted principal dealer licenses at the new site. A motion to approve the relocation carried after members discussed whether fees could be waived; a councilmember moved to waive the fee and the council approved that waiver as part of the same agenda item.
The council record shows a motion to authorize the new location passed (motion by Finch; second by Schmidt) and a subsequent motion to waive the fee was made and approved (mover and seconder recorded during the meeting). City staff noted the new location holds a current license at a different location and that transfer procedures and renewal timing would govern the license year; staff indicated the license was a new license for the new location, not a simple transfer.
Council members voted in favor of both the authorization and the fee waiver; the motions passed without recorded opposition.
