Summary
City staff read a list of new and renewed liquor licenses for businesses including Fiesta Linda, Juanito's, Family Dollar, EZ Mart and Quick Pack; a councilmember moved to approve the list but a recorded vote or final outcome is not in the transcript.
Bastrop City Council staff read a package of new and renewed liquor licenses during a council meeting, listing several restaurants and retail outlets and noting that police and other checks had been completed.
Speaker 4 (staff member) read the list aloud, naming Fiesta Linda Mexican Restaurant at 1065 East Madison Avenue, Juanito's Mexican Restaurant at 801 North Washington Avenue, Family Dollar (#20917) at 542 North Washington Avenue, EZ Mart at 1231 North Washington, Johnson's House No. 7 at 1601 Parkview, Veterans Private Club at 2324 East Madison Avenue and a renewal for Quick Pack Incorporated. Speaker 4 stated, "All of these, restaurants and businesses have done what is necessary on on the police parts."
Speaker 2 (councilmember) responded, "I'll make that motion," indicating a motion to approve the new and renewed licenses. The transcript does not include a second, a vote tally or a recorded outcome for the motion.
Councilmembers briefly discussed proximity concerns where a license site sits near Saint John church and whether prior measurements and agreements resolved distance requirements; staff and council concluded verification would be required if there was doubt.
Next steps: staff will proceed with the licensing paperwork and any required verifications; the transcript does not record a formal vote or further procedural steps for the motion.
