Liquor commission approves D-4 endorsement for Red Bottle Restaurant at 401 E. Dundee
Summary
The Village of Wheeling Liquor Control Commission voted unanimously to grant a Class D-4 package liquor endorsement to Red Bottle Restaurant, allowing the restaurant to sell packaged liquor and operate a "wine of the month" club. The action was taken in the commission's meeting before the board convened.
The Wheeling Liquor Control Commission voted unanimously to grant a Class D-4 supplement to the restaurant liquor license held by Delta Kilo Inc., doing business as Red Bottle Restaurant at 401 East Dundee Road.
A staff member told commissioners the D-4 endorsement permits package liquor sales and was intended to accommodate a planned wine-of-the-month club run by the business. The staff member also said this would be the village's fifteenth D-4 license if approved.
A commissioner asked whether state law already governs customers taking unfinished bottles home. A staff member replied that state rules restrict taking unsealed containers from a premises and that the local license formalizes the restaurant's package-sales authority.
The commission moved and seconded the request and approved it on a roll-call vote. The Liquor Control Commission then adjourned its meeting and the board convened the regular Village Board meeting.
The approval was described as a supplement to an existing restaurant license; staff noted payment of associated liquor-license fees and the subsequent need for an ordinance to create a new class D-4 license number in the municipal code.
