City Council Meeting Minutes August 16, 2011 Page 4 of 8 City Attorney Light introduced Ordinance No. 1600, Series 2011. Mayor Sisk opened the public hearing and requested a staff presentation. City Clerk Varra explained Ordinance No. 1600, Series 2011 would authorize the Local Licensing Authority to approve Special Events Permit Applications without State approval. It increases the number of events from ten to fifteen and requires the local authority to check the number of days already given to the organization and to report the permits issued to the State database. A Special Events is a temporary permit which allows qualified nonprofit organizations to serve liquor at fund - raising activities. The Louisville Local Licensing Authority reviewed this draft ordinance on July 25, which amends the Louisville Municipal Code to incorporate revisions to the special events permitting process. The Local Licensing Authority will adopt a resolution for approval of all applications for special events permits. The Colorado Municipal Clerk's Association was instrumental in getting this bill through the legislature to alleviate the burden on the Liquor Enforcement Division at the State level. Approval of this ordinance will considerably reduce the amount of time required for processing of Special Events Permit Applications while maintaining the authority /discretion of the Louisville Local Licensing Authority.
