Louisville Local Licensing Authority Meeting Date: December 18, 2000 Page 7 of license. Chairperson Myers asked the applicant to come forward and answer questions for the Authority. Vice Chairperson Lipton asked who would be the registered manager for the Melting Pot Louisville restaurant. Mr. Barber stated that the question concerning the registered manager had been confusing. He continued that he is a managing partner of LSL, LLC and that Kyle Reed, also a partner of LSL, LLC is the operations manager. Mr. Barber stated that each restaurant also has a manager that is in charge of the daily operations. Member Jeffers stated that the on-site manager who is in charge of the sales and service of alcoholic beverages, should be the registered manager, and will need to submit an individual history report and submit the necessary fingerprint cards to complete a background check. Chairperson Myers moved to approve the application for transfer of the hotel and restaurant liquor license from SGG, LLC d/b/a The Melting Pot Louisville to LSL, LLC d/b/a The Melting Pot Louisville contingent on the applicant providing its Federal Employer ID Number, a copy of the personal note between Max Barber and David French, and favorable outcome of the background investigation for the registered manager of the Louisville restaurant.

All members were in favor, the motion carried. mo Final Decision and Order Draft - Holly & Mike's Ribs, Inc., d/b/a Hickory Sticks - Hotel & Restaurant Liquor License - 1000 S. Boulder Road. Authority members were given a copy of a newspaper article concerning Holly & Mike's Ribs, Inc., d/b/a Hickory Sticks and a police report filed with the Boulder County Sheriff's Office on December 9, 2000 alleging five bad checks between October 5, 2000 and October 19, 2000. Members discussed the contents of the article and determined that the Final Decision and Order needs to be addressed separate from the issues raised in the article. Authority Attorney Kelly outlined the contents of the Final Decision and Order. Chairperson Myers stated that he was somewhat surprised that the Authority chose to hold all three days of the suspension penalty in abeyance. Member Jeffers stated that they were indeed generous, feeling that suspending the liquor license was not going to provide a means for the licensee to pay sales tax in a more timely manner. Chairperson Myers stated that he understood the reasons for the Authority's decision, but wondered if the wrong message was being sent. He continued that the licensee had been told to catch up on their sales tax payments and keep current or else and now, once again, they are being told to catch up and stay current or else. Member Jeffers moved to approve the Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law, and Final Decision and Order as written. Member Kimmett seconded the motion. Roll Call Vote: Myers - yes, Jeffers - yes, Lipton - yes, Evans- yes, Kimmett - yes. All members were in favor, the motion carried. 7
