Holbrook council approves Empty Pocket Saloon patio expansion
Summary
The Holbrook City Council approved a permanent extension permitting outdoor alcohol service and additional seating at the Empty Pocket Saloon after the applicant described safety measures and provided site diagrams. The motion passed by voice vote; no roll-call tally was recorded.
The Holbrook City Council on June 26 approved a permanent extension of premises for the Empty Pocket Saloon to allow outdoor seating, yard games and expanded alcohol consumption on an adjoining patio.
Council members heard that the applicant plans to construct a block wall fence, add a walkway from the parking lot to the patio and install additional security measures, including extra cameras and posted exit signage. Cynthia Banks was identified as the original requester and Sher Watson represented the business during the meeting.
Council discussion was limited. A council member moved to approve the extension and the motion was seconded. The council approved the request by voice vote; a roll-call tally was not specified on the record.
The applicant provided diagrams and required forms to the city and the administration noted they had received the permit materials. The council did not attach conditions on the public record beyond the security measures the applicant described.
The approval came during the council’s regular meeting; the body then recessed for a brief break before reconvening in a special budget work session.
