Council OKs liquor service for two Chamber ticketed events on city property
Summary
The council approved a request from the Gallatin Chamber to serve liquor at two ticketed, city-property events (Farm to Table and Gusteau Gala); vote recorded 5 in favor, 2 abstentions.
The Gallatin City Council on July 15 approved a request from the Gallatin Chamber to serve liquor at two upcoming ticketed events on city property: the Farm to Table dinner (Sept. 20) and the Gusteau Gala (Oct. 18). Kim Baker, representing the Chamber, said the events are private, ticketed, fully insured and will use licensed bartenders.
Councilman Fennell moved approval and Councilman Carter seconded. The clerk recorded five votes in favor and two abstentions; the mayor announced the request passed. The Chamber noted prior approval from the beer board to serve alcohol and introduced Paul Vaughn as a new staff member who will coordinate events.
The motion authorizes liquor service for these city-property, ticketed events only; it does not change permanent city policy on alcohol at other public events. The meeting record did not specify additional insurance conditions beyond Baker’s statement that the Chamber is insured.
