Council approves McPins retail liquor license pending state tax compliance
Summary
The Dell Rapids City Council approved resolution No. 20 to renew McPins' retail on‑sale liquor license contingent on the applicant becoming current with state property‑tax obligations; the vote was carried by roll call after staff noted outstanding state-level taxes.
The Dell Rapids City Council voted to approve resolution No. 20, renewing a retail on‑sale liquor license for McPins contingent on the applicant bringing state property‑tax obligations current.
City staff told the council that McPins had submitted the required licensing paperwork, signed its operating agreement and paid city invoices, but had not yet resolved state property‑tax delinquencies. "You can either approve or deny the approval of liquor license renewal from McPins," staff said, recommending approval pending that outstanding state obligation. Councilmember Hanslick moved to approve the application "pending all financial obligations are met," a motion seconded by another councilmember and carried on a roll call vote.
The council recorded the motion and then completed a roll call to record individual votes. Staff noted that once the council approves the renewal, the state will review the application with its own compliance check, as it has done for recently approved licenses. No fines, penalties or final state determinations were recorded during the meeting; the local approval is conditional on McPins becoming current with state tax obligations.
