City to allow paint‑and‑sip events with alcohol at recreation center; prior events had no disorderly conduct
Summary
The Recreation Department applied for paint‑and‑sip events at the Lake Wales Family Recreation Center that include alcohol; staff said prior paint‑and‑sip events have occurred without disorderly conduct and the permit requires commission approval because alcohol would be served in a city facility.
Clerk'staff presented an application from the Lake Wales Recreation Department to hold paint‑and‑sip events at the Lake Wales Family Recreation Center in partnership with the Arts Council. Because alcohol would be served in a city building, the application requires commission approval.
Staff noted the events have been run for several years and that prior occurrences did not result in disorderly conduct. Commissioners discussed the novelty and creative nature of the events; staff said required event plans and any necessary security or operational conditions would be required under the special event process.
The permit will be placed on the regular agenda for formal approval; no final action occurred at the work session.
