Roll Call. Present: Aldermen Hudson and Jushka. Alderman Babcock arrived at 6:49 p.m. Also present was City Attorney Eberhardt. Absent & excused was City Administrator Mark Grams.

Approve Minutes of Previous Meeting-Motion by Alderman Jushka, second by Alderman Hudson to approve the minutes of the previous meeting. Motion carried unanimously.

Consider Cabaret License Application-Alderman Hudson reported that he received correspondence from Brendan Comer, 224 N. Franklin St., expressing serious concerns that this location is not suitable for a Cabaret License because of its proximity to residents and businesses. Alderman Hudson also indicated that he received phone calls from neighbors who expressed the same concerns. He received a letter from the Police Chief recommending denial of a Cabaret License in that it would be against the public interests and welfare of the community because of the unsuitability of the location for the operation of a Cabaret License. Alderman Babcock feels that based on the problems in the past, this is not a good location for a Cabaret License. It is the City Attorney’s recommendation that whether the license is approved or denied that it is issued on a "per event" basis so that problems and concerns that may arise can be monitored and addressed. Approval of the license could be delayed for a period of time to see how the operation is progressing. City Attorney Eberhardt pointed out to the Committee that he and the Police Chief did a study of the contacts that were made by the Police Department to establishments with a Cabaret License in a six-month period. The report illustrated that the number of calls was much greater to Coyotes than to other taverns. Andy Lanza spoke to the Committee and asked what was in the Chief’s letter recommending denial of a Cabaret License. He said that the Committee is assuming that what he is planning to do would be the same as how Coyotes operated their business. He said the Committee never asked what age group he is targeting and what music he would be playing. He asked that the Committee give him a chance to run his business. Ben Lanza, Andy’s father, spoke to the Committee asking that they give his son a chance to run his businesses and review it in a couple of months. He is a local person. Everything seems to be based on what happened before. City Attorney Eberhardt pointed out that on Mr. Lanza’s Cabaret License Application, he seemed to list the same type of music as the former owner. Mr. Lanza said that he remodeled the inside of the bar and his main goal is to drive local people back. He would like to have karaoke, as well as feature a variety of music. Ann Comer, 224 N. Franklin St., said that she agrees with all concerns mentioned in her husband’s letter to the Mayor and Council and is opposed to any Cabaret License at this location. Alderman Jushka recommended that we deny the cabaret license at this time and wait 6 months to see how the business is doing.

Motion by Alderman Jushka, second by Alderman Babcock to recommend denial of the Cabaret License for Lanza, LLC (Andrea William Lanza) Foxy’s/219 N. Franklin St. and after 6 months of operation of the "Class B" Tavern license, if everything is satisfactory, consider issuing a Cabaret License. Motion carried unanimously.

Consider Developer’s Agreement Between The City And Schmidt Farm Property, LLC (Didier Development)-City Planner Randy Tetzlaff reviewed sections of the proposed Developer’s Agreement with the Committee. He recommended that the agreement be approved contingent upon the City’s Attorney’s review. Motion by Alderman Babcock, second by Alderman Jushka to approve the Developer’s Agreement between the City and Schmidt Farm Property, LLC (Didier Development) contingent upon review by the City Attorney. Motion carried unanimously.

With no further business, motion by Alderman Jushka, second by Alderman Babcock to adjourn the meeting of the Finance and License Committee at 7:37 p.m. Motion carried unanimously.
