Council approves temporary liquor license for Pantel Brewing and waives special‑meeting fee
Summary
The council approved a temporary on‑sale liquor license for Pantel Brewing for Sept. 18, 2024, and by consensus decided not to charge the applicant a special‑meeting fee despite a late application, while asking the applicant to be timely in future filings.
The City Council approved a temporary on‑sale liquor license for Pantel Brewing for Sept. 18, 2024, after a brief public hearing that produced no speakers.
The public hearing was opened and closed by the Chair at about 12:01 p.m. The Chair said there were no attendees wishing to speak for or against the application and then moved to approve the license; a second was recorded, the Chair called for a vote and stated the motion carried. The transcript does not include a roll‑call or numerical tally of votes.
Council members then discussed whether to charge the applicant a fee for convening the special meeting, because the application was submitted late. One council member said, “I would hate to charge given the circumstances of the event and what it does for the community and bringing folks together,” and others noted the event is an annual community gathering. At the same time, another speaker pointed out this was the second late filing, and the council agreed the applicant should be reminded to submit materials on time in the future. The council indicated by consensus that it would not charge the applicant for this meeting.
The Chair said they would communicate that the council made an exception this time while requesting better timeliness going forward. The meeting was adjourned shortly afterward.
Notes: The transcript alternates spellings for the applicant ("Pantel" and "Pantown"); this article uses the transcript's first spelling, "Pantel Brewing." Vote counts were not specified in the transcript.
