RE:                Sandbar Sidewalk Dining and Hospitality License

Ricky Deans Inc., doing business as Sandbar, 17 East 8^th Street, has recently applied for a Sidewalk Dining and Hospitality License and has submitted all required documents.  The related site plan, SP-02-02-09, is also on the May 12, 2009 agenda.  The Sandbar is planning to offer alcoholic beverages to its customers and its drinking establishment license was approved on the July 1, 2008 Consent Agenda.  Enclosed is Ordinance 8400, which after its effective date, would allow possession and consumption of alcoholic beverages on the Sandbar sidewalk hospitality area portion of city right of way. 

City Clerk’s Office staff recommends approval of the Sandbar Sidewalk Dining and Hospitality License application and related Ordinance 8400.
