Summary

The Village Board tabled consideration of a Beverage Operation License for Desiree Garcia after discussion about an incident in which she allegedly served alcohol to underage customers; Chief Randolph had originally approved the application and the board withdrew a motion to deny pending additional information.

West Milwaukee — The Village Board deferred action on a Beverage Operation License application for Desiree Garcia after trustees raised concerns about an incident in which she allegedly served alcohol to underage customers.

Minutes show Chief Shaundra Randolph had originally approved the license application. During the Licenses, Zoning, Parks and Building Committee discussion, Chairperson Schaefer moved to deny the license and Trustee Edgar seconded. The board then decided to table the motion and both Chairperson Schaefer and Trustee Edgar withdrew the denial motion until more information about the incident is provided and Garcia can appear before the board.

No formal vote to deny or approve was recorded in the minutes. The board’s action effectively postpones a final decision pending further investigation and an opportunity for the applicant to address the board. The minutes do not specify details of the alleged incident, any police investigation, or whether any citations or enforcement actions have been initiated.
