Clay City meeting introduces resolution to consider liquor license for Deerfoot Parkway storefront
Summary
City officials introduced Resolution 26 5 0 3 to consider an alcohol license for a new Deerfoot Parkway liquor store at the former Daylight Donuts site; questions about whether the application involves transferring an existing license were deferred to the public hearing.
Speaker 2 introduced Resolution 26 5 0 3 to consider approval of an alcohol license for a proposed ``Deerfoot Liquor’’ at 6736 Deerfoot Parkway, Suite 102 — the former Daylight Donuts in the Piggly Wiggly shopping center.
"That is where they're wanting to put a liquor store," Speaker 2 said in explanation of the location. Speaker 1 pressed for clarification about whether the application represents a transfer of an existing city license, noting the city currently has four liquor licenses issued. "It doesn't say they're transferring," Speaker 1 said, and members acknowledged they had received a late email from Brad that suggested there was some last-minute activity on the application.
Speaker 2 said the licensing questions, including any proposed transfer, would be best addressed at the public hearing portion of the meeting rather than during the agenda overview. No final action on the license application was taken at this portion of the meeting; the matter will return for the public hearing and any formal vote or transfer request will be resolved there.
Why this matters: A new retail liquor outlet in a Piggly Wiggly shopping center would add a commercial alcohol outlet in an already developed strip; whether the operation uses a newly issued license or a transferred existing license affects the city’s total active license count and can shape the scope of public comment and review at the hearing.
