Commissioners continue business code revisions and approve multiple licenses on second reading

Story County Board of County Commissioners · September 1, 2026

Summary

The board continued consideration of a business impact statement updating Story County business and liquor licensing code and approved the second and final reading of several business licenses listed as items a–m.

Commissioners reviewed a business impact statement that updates Story County Code chapters related to business licensing and alcohol sales. Staff (Laura Mather) said the statement incorporates board recommendations from first reading and clarified changes including temporary seller permit clarifications, vacation rental minimum renter age language, enumerated liquor‑license fees, inclusion of cider in beer/wine permits, and clarified off‑site alcohol sales for events.

After discussion the board moved to continue consideration of the business impact statement (first reading changes reflected in the draft) and later approved the second and final reading of business licenses listed under item 27 (a–m) by unanimous vote.

The code amendments will proceed to second reading and public notices as required prior to final adoption.
