Commission recommends lease amendment for outdoor service language, approves two tenant leases
Summary
The commission recommended City Council approve an amended lease for Boosie's Bar & Grill to grant exclusive outdoor service language needed for state compliance, and approved leases for Anthony Knowles and Front Street with staff confirming tenants were notified.
Staff presented lease amendments drafted to address recent state guidance on outdoor service areas and to provide exclusive-use language where appropriate. For longer-than-three-year leases, such as Boosie's Bar & Grill, staff asked the commission to recommend the amendment to City Council because council approval is required for longer terms.
Commissioners reviewed maps showing the proposed demarcation of outdoor license areas and discussed low-impact methods such as painted lines, planters or signage rather than hard fences. The commission voted to recommend approval of the Boosie's amendment to City Council and then approved lease terms for Anthony Knowles and Front Street directly by voice votes; staff confirmed the tenants had been informed of the changes and that temporary outdoor liquor licenses remain available through city and state procedures for vendors.
