Council approves beer-and-wine license for new Hot Springs restaurant
Summary
After a public hearing, the council approved a beer-and-wine (farm wine) license for an owner who identified his restaurant as Lacy Lou at 1204 Sherman Street; the applicant said the business opened recently and requested city approval to serve beer and local wine.
The Hot Springs City Council approved a liquor-licensing application for a new restaurant at 1204 Sherman Street after a brief public hearing.
Owner Joel Milbras introduced himself for the record and said he owns the business he called Lacy Lou and that the restaurant had opened recently. "Yeah, I'm Joel Milbras. I'm the owner of Lacy Lou," he said, describing menu items and adding that he had applied for a beer-and-wine license because, in his view, "pizza and beer kind of go together, and local wine."
After the public comment, a council member moved to approve the farm-wine/beer license application for the business to operate at the stated address; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote.
The council closed the hearing shortly after the applicant's remarks and congratulated the new business on opening. Council discussion was minimal and mostly congratulatory; no objections or conditions were recorded in the transcript.
The council's action allows the applicant to proceed with licensing steps required by the state and city for on-site beer and local wine service at 1204 Sherman Street.
