Shorewood board OKs farm leases for village land and approves additional Class B‑2 liquor license
Summary
Trustees approved two farm-lease resolutions for village-owned parcels (40-acre and 10-acre) and authorized an additional Class B‑2 liquor license, clearing a path for Pizza Ranch to sell alcohol under local licensing.
The Village Board approved two farm-lease resolutions allowing local farmers to cultivate vacant village-owned parcels and adopted an ordinance creating an additional Class B‑2 liquor license.
Attorney/administrator staff explained the farm leases are standard practice for maintaining vacant village land and noted the 40‑acre parcel near Town Center and a separate 10‑acre parcel near County Line are being leased to Edwin and Leona Meyer LP. Trustees moved and approved the resolutions by roll call.
Separately, staff confirmed Pizza Ranch completed background checks and application requirements for a Class B‑2 license, and trustees voted to waive a second reading and approve an ordinance creating an additional license to accommodate the restaurant’s request.
