Authority Business Special Events Permit - Louisville Citizens Aquatics Foundation (LCAF) - Event at La Piazza on 1/14/06 - 917 Front Street Authority member Wilson commented she requested this item be moved to Authority Business because this was a new event to her. Secretary Hanson explained this was a community event for two Council members who were leaving City Council due to term limits. Wilson questioned if there was a cash bar or why the need for the permit. Attorney Light responded they were asking for a voluntary donation at the door which could be construed as paying for the liquor so the organizers were making sure everything was above-board by applying for this permit. Wilson moved the Authority approve the Special Events Permit. Lipton seconded. Roll Call Vote: Lipton - yes, Mulvahill - yes, Koertje - yes, Rommelfanger - yes and Wilson - yes. A. Show Cause Hearing - Maharaja I, Inc. d/b/a Maharaja Cuisine of India - Hotel and Restaurant License - 1132 W. Dillon Road Vice-Chair Mulvahill noted Special Prosecutor Stefan Fredricksmeyer was in attendance and the licensee was present. Mulvahill noted the Authority had a copy of a motion to continue submitted by Mr. Fredricksmeyer. Mulvahill asked Mr. Fredricksmeyer to explain the basis for the motion. Stefan Fredricksmeyer entered his name for the record and introduced Zuned Khan, husband of Suhena Khatun, licensee. Fredricksmeyer reported the licensee had submitted checks to the City Finance Department for the sales tax owed on Monday, November 21, 2005. He then filed the motion to continue the show cause hearing based on the good faith effort on the part of the licensee to bring the sales tax payments up to date. With the show cause hearing moved to the next meeting, the City would know if the checks cleared. Mulvahill clarified the Authority could only consider the months of payment noted in the show cause order, not into the future. Mr. Khan commented the checks had cleared according to this bank. Mulvahill moved the Authority approve the City's motion to continue the show cause hearing to the next Local Licensing Authority meeting which is Monday, January 23,2006 at 7:00 PM. Rommelfanger seconded. Roll Call Vote: Lipton - yes,
