Ilk I <br /> 12/20/83 Page -3• <br /> Councilman Leary C..sfented along with the violations pro- <br /> vided he noted several incidents reported <br /> in the paper at Waldo's, are these legitimate <br /> community concerns to base licensing decisions <br /> on also? <br /> Attorrem Rautenatraus advised that the latter <br />- would not be; specific pieces of evidence <br /> on those facts, i.e. specific testimony re- <br /> garding what you were suggesting that might <br /> be. Warmly reading seething in the news- <br /> paper or having a general perception that <br /> a lot of people are coming out of the establlsh- <br /> aent and getting involved in fights would <br /> not be proper evidence, <br /> Mayor Meier Commented this is not the first time that <br /> these problems have occured and come before <br /> council when the license is up for renewal. <br /> Stated that the owners have been before <br /> council on similar matters and felt that <br /> they were aware of the implications, and <br /> know that they should report the incidents. <br /> Suggested that council pass on the license <br /> temporarily and set a public hearing for <br /> final determination. <br /> Councilman Cummings Commented since the owners were not present, <br /> felt that the lio4nse should be tabled, a <br /> public hearing set and no license renewed <br /> until January 3, 1984. <br /> Councilman Fauson Commented he didn't feel it appropriate to <br /> condemn the owners until they have an oppor- <br /> tunity to come before council and give their <br /> side of the situation. Realized that the <br /> reports provided council were accurate; but <br /> did not feel their business should be shut <br /> down until they have been given proper notice. <br /> A temporary renewal of the license should be <br /> given until the owners have had the opportunity <br /> to speak at the hearing. <br /> Councilwoman Morris Commented she felt it was deceptive that it <br /> was being called a public hearing. Certainly <br /> the pubic could have input, but felt that <br /> the main purpose was to have the owners present <br /> to discuss the problems with council and <br /> this need not be published as all other public <br /> hearing. The terminology Liquor License <br /> Hearing weld b• more suitable. <br /> maimmemar <br />
