INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memorandum is to recommend approval of the above noted
retail alcohol license applications.
BACKGROUND
State and city codes require that a retail alcohol license be obtained to sell beer, wine, or
alcoholic liquor in the city. Applications and licenses are issued by the lowa Alcohol
Beverage Division (ABD) in conjunction with cities, who are defined as the local authority in
State Code Chapter 123 on alcoholic beverage control. The City Clerk's Office is the local
authority for City of Dubuque retail alcohol license applications and therefore processes
each application on behalf of the city. per City Code §4-2B-9, City Council action is required
on all retail alcohol license applications before the application is forwarded to the lowa ABD
for further action.
DISCUSSION
The City Clerk's Office submits recommendations for approval of all new and additional
privilege retail alcohol license applications. New applications include special events;
however, the City Clerk's Office indicates special events separately in memos and
resolutions for prompt reference. Additionally, per City Code §4-2B-9, the City Clerk's Office
is authorized to issue provisional approval for new and renewal applications for liquor, beer,
and wine licenses and permits prior to regularly scheduled City Council meetings when the
applicants have met all of the application and inspection provisions of the city and state
codes. The City Clerk's Office issues provisional approval to applicants when approval is
deemed necessary prior to a regularly scheduled City Council meeting. All provisional
approvals are placed on the next regularly scheduled City Council Agenda for review and
either approval or revocation by the City Council. The above noted applications have fulfilled
all pertinent application and inspection provisions set forth in city and state codes.
The Dubuque Police Department submits recommendations for retail alcohol license
renewal applications and details their annual calls for service on each establishment.
RECOMMENDATION
I respectfully request approval of the above noted retail alcohol license applications as
submitted.
