Tuscaloosa Tennis Center seeks limited alcohol sales only at concession stand
Summary
City staff described an application from the Tuscaloosa Tennis Center to allow alcohol sales only at its concession building; staff said service would be restricted to people 21 and older, require locked storage, daily inventory checks and on-site consumption only.
A staff presenter told the Tuscaloosa City Council that the Tuscaloosa Tennis Center has applied for a special retail permit to allow alcohol sales at its concession building at 7:15 21st Avenue East.
City staff said the alcohol operations plan restricts service to the concession building and requires that alcohol be "served by 21 plus," kept in locked storage with daily inventory checks, monitored by security cameras, and consumed on site only. Staff also said non-tennis events that are unrelated to tennis would be prohibited under the plan and that the director of tennis and the office manager are responsible for ensuring compliance.
The presentation included hours of operation for the facility and the concession stand. Council members asked no follow-up questions during the briefing. The item was presented as part of the licensing and permitting segment of tonight's agenda; the council did not vote on the application during the portion of the meeting in the transcript.
Next steps: the application will proceed through the council's standard permitting and approval process, including any public-notice or hearing requirements established by city code.
