Waukesha committee approves two premise-license extensions and a change-of-agent request; minutes adopted
Summary
At its Feb. 10 meeting the Waukesha City Ordinance and Licensing Committee approved two extensions of premise liquor/beer licenses, a change of agent for a Speedway LLC location and adopted two sets of minutes, all by unanimous consent or vote.
Waukesha CityOrdinance and Licensing Committee met Feb. 10 and unanimously approved two premise-license extension requests, a change of agent for Speedway LLC and adopted two sets of minutes.
The actions were taken during the committee's regular meeting, which opened at 6:00 p.m.; there were no public comments. Committee members asked brief, procedural questions about application details before each vote and approved all items without recorded opposition.
The committee approved two sets of minutes from previous meetings after staff explained the attachment error that created duplicate files. The clerk presented both the correct and the previously attached files, and the committee adopted both sets by unanimous consent.
On licenses, the committee first considered Foxview Lane's request for an extension of its premise license for the sale of liquor and/or beer. Committee discussion clarified that the fee is $40 per event and that multi-date listings are typically submitted as a single application but are charged per event. Alderperson Manion moved to approve the extension; Alderperson Wigderson seconded. The motion carried unanimously.
Next the Hilltop Pub representative came forward for an extension request for on-site sales. Committee members asked about the footprint of the enclosed area shown in the attachment; staff and the applicant confirmed the event area would be enclosed with snow fence on two sides and that the fenced area would secure entry from the parking lot. Alderperson Halvinsleben moved to approve the extension; Alderperson Manion seconded. The committee approved the request unanimously.
Finally, the committee considered a change-of-agent application for Speedway LLC. Committee members noted an absence of the usual state record attachment in the packet but were told a background check had been received and that prior incidents listed on the application were old and were not considered to affect the current determination. Alderperson Halvinsleben moved to approve the change of agent; Alderperson Manion seconded. That motion also passed unanimously.
After brief communications from the clerk's office the committee adjourned; the agenda was completed.
