Executive Summary: |
The Sandbar has requested permission for the sale, possession and consumption of alcohol associated with the 2019 event in the 100 block of E 8th Street during their event.
The sale, possession and consumption of alcohol on the right-of-way is generally prohibited, unless the City Commission adopts an ordinance exempting an area from that prohibition. The attached Ordinance No. 9661 would temporarily allow the sale, possession and consumption of alcohol in the 100 block of E 8th Street on Friday, August 16, 2019 and on Saturday, August 17, 2019 during their event. The ordinance actually extends the allowance of alcohol until 1:00 AM, Sunday, August 18th to accommodate event closure and cleanup.
In addition, Police, Parks and Recreation, Municipal Services and Operations, Fire/Medical, Lawrence Transit, Downtown Lawrence, Inc., East Lawrence Neighborhood Association (ELNA), Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods and Explore Lawrence have reviewed this request.
