Tinley Park board amends liquor-license classifications and adjusts count for Harlem Avenue site

The Village Board on May 20 adopted Ordinance 2025‑O‑014 amending Chapter 112 of Title 11 of the Tinley Park Village Code to update liquor-license classifications, and it adopted Ordinance 2025‑O‑015 to decrease and increase the number of Class UV liquor licenses to accommodate a location at 19420 South Harlem Avenue.

Both items were discussed at the Committee of the Whole prior to the regular meeting and were presented for adoption at the board meeting. Trustees voted by roll call on each ordinance; the meeting minutes record that each motion carried.

Why it matters: Changes to liquor-license classifications and license counts affect which establishments can serve alcohol and under what license type, and can be important for prospective businesses and existing license holders. The May 20 record shows the board approved both items after Committee of the Whole consideration; the transcript did not include extended debate or amendments during the roll calls recorded at the meeting.

The transcript identifies the ordinances by number and the address affected by the Class UV license change. The meeting did not record additional details such as the new total counts for each license class beyond the action to decrease and increase the Class UV allotment for the specified property, nor did it include a summary of the code text changes beyond the chapter and title references in the ordinance captions.
