<br />Louisville Local Licensing Authority <br />Meeting Date: July 26, 2004 <br />Page 4 of 6 <br /> <br />experience in the retail liquor business. Ms. Kidane stated she is the sole operator of <br />the store at this point. Questions were asked about the former owners and whether Ms. <br />Kidane had any dealings with them. The answer was no. Discussion centered on the <br />previous inventory being auctioned off, sales tax issues and the previous owner being <br />evicted. A question was raised about sales tax being owed to the city. Secretary <br />Hanson reported there is no sales tax due to the city. <br /> <br />Mulvahill moved the Authority approve the transfer of the retail liquor store license to <br />Addis Enterprise, Inc. d/b/a Louisville Discount Liquor at 1140 Pine St. Unit 1 <br />conditioned on the return of the fingerprint check showing no criminal history. Lipton <br />seconded the motion. <br /> <br />Attorney Light explained Authority Rule 5b requires the transfer to have the assent of <br />the current license holder. He explained this local rule is not one required by the state <br />and since this is a transfer by operation of law and the current licensee has been <br />evicted, the Authority needs to make a motion to waive that rule since the landlord is the <br />one signing this transfer application. <br /> <br />Mulvahill waived Rule 5b as a friendly amendment to his motion for this transfer <br />application. Seconder Lipton also accepted the friendly amendment. <br /> <br />Roll Call Vote: Koertje-yes, Mulvahill-yes, Wilson-yes, Lipton-yes and Rommelfanger- <br />yes. Motion adopted. <br /> <br />C. Setting of Boundaries and Public Hearing for new Tavern liquor license <br />application - The Lodge at Balfour Operations, LLC d/b/a The Lodge at <br />Balfour - 1855 Plaza Dr. <br /> <br />Mulvahill had questions about the application. Attorney Light commented there were <br />issues with the application needing completion. At this point, there can still be a motion <br />to set the boundaries and set the public hearing and the application issues will be <br />addressed before the public hearing. <br /> <br />Mulvahill moved the Authority set the boundaries as the city limits of the City of <br />Louisville and set the public hearing for August 30,2004. Lipton seconded. <br /> <br />Roll Call Vote: Koertje-yes, Mulvahill-yes, Wilson-yes, Lipton-yes and Rommelfanger- <br />yes. Motion adopted. <br /> <br />D.
