Council approves carnival and temporary alcohol permits for Saint Francis Days with insurance contingency
Summary
The council approved a carnival license for Wenzel Amusements LLC and a temporary Class B wine/beer license for Saint Francis Days (Sept. 4–6, 2026) at 4320 South Kirkwood Avenue, contingent on a certificate of insurance and by voice vote.
The Saint Francis Common Council on July 21 approved two event-related licenses for Saint Francis Days, including a carnival license for Wenzel Amusements LLC and a temporary Class B wine and beer permit for festival dates Sept. 4–6, 2026, at 4320 South Kirkwood Avenue.
The licensing committee recommended approval subject to an insurance requirement. As the committee recommendation was read, a staff member said the committee's approval was "subject to them providing a certificate of insurance." The council moved, seconded, and approved both items by voice vote. No opposition was recorded.
The approvals include a contingency to ensure the licensees meet city code and insurance standards before event operations proceed. The council's recorded action did not list individual vote tallies in the transcript.
