Discussion of Rule Changes from State Liquor Enforcement Division Secretary Hanson noted this was included for Authority information. Fees had been reduced and there were some changes to the suggested penalties. Authority Attorney Culley noted the standards in Louisville's policy have always been suggestions and the Authority could choose to include the State's recommendations even if by reference. She stated there is a lot of flexibility available to the Authority with how the policy is currently written. Machado noted there were good reasons to have strict guidelines and good reasons to have flexibility in sentencing. He suggested waiting and reviewing this if further information is received from the State and when John Carlson can provide his input. Hughes confirmed the Authority would wait and review this at a later date. Police Department Reports A.
