The Kadoka City Council approved two special-events liquor permits during its Jan. 12 meeting. The council granted Ross Block a Special Events License to rent the city auditorium and have the City Bar serve alcohol at a customer appreciation dinner; the motion passed 5-1 with Councilmember Chris Grillo voting no. Later, the council approved a special events license for the Small Towner/Pocketful of Posies to serve on-sale liquor for a Super Bowl event; that motion also passed 5-1 (Grillo opposed).

Council discussion included what criteria must be met for special events licenses and a procedural note that the Small Towner needed to resend statutory paperwork to the state for its off-sale liquor license. Councilmember Colleen Hildebrand also reported the bar’s walk-in cooler has been repaired and that an inventory count was completed.
