Item No. v 9 2 9 3
Date: September 14, 2009
Item/Subject: Ordinance: Amending Chapter 231, Public Parks — Section 231-7, Alcoholic
Beverages; Fires, Use of Closed Areas to Permit Sale of Malt Liquor on Golf
Course
Responsible Department: Legal
Commentary:
State law allows the sale of beer at golf courses from a "mobile service bar". In 2004, the City
ordinance was amended to allow for sales of beer at the golf course on weekends and during
tournaments under conditions established by the Director of Parks and Recreation and approved
by the City Council Committee.
This ordinance amendment will allow sales of beer on the golf course on all days and eliminates
the requirement that the terms of conditions of such sales established by the Director of Parks
and Recreation be approved by the City Council Committee.
