Summary

Stacy Kobel, owner of Stacy's Kitchen, asked the Hallock council to renew a liquor license; the council said it could not act until it received a clearance certificate from the Minnesota Department of Revenue and discussed a possible special meeting or placing the item on the next agenda.

Stacy Kobel, owner of Stacy's Kitchen, requested that the council renew a liquor license for the bowling alley during public comment on Jan. 6. Kobel explained outstanding fines and fees related to filing paperwork and said she was meeting with Northwest on Thursday regarding a loan.

Mayor David Treumer and Administrator Kendra Kroening told Kobel that the city had received notice from the state indicating the license could be revoked unless a Department of Revenue certificate of clearance was provided to the city. Kroening confirmed the city had not received a clearance certificate at the time of the meeting, and the council said it could not approve renewal until that documentation was received.

Council members discussed options should the certificate arrive soon, including holding a special meeting or placing the renewal on the agenda for the next regular meeting depending on timing. The minutes do not record a final deadline or a promised date for a special meeting; Kobel said she would be meeting with Northwest later in the week about financing.

The council's action was procedural: no license renewal vote occurred without the required state clearance documentation.
