<br />

<br />C. Li uor License - Silver Dollar Club, 1775 West 6th Avenue - RMB (new,
<br />Application submitted by Bud Ntxon, 3088 West 15th Avenue 9. OLCC reported four
<br />of seven interviewed in the neighborhood objected to issuance of the license.
<br />
<br />Public hearing was opened.
<br />
<br />. -
<br />Mr. Nixon stated the application should not be considered "new" since the establish2
<br />ment for which it was requested was~previously located in the ERA project area
<br />downtown (Jack's). Application at another location was withdrawn because of
<br />neighborhood objections, so it was hoped this location, in an industrial area,
<br />would be approved.
<br />
<br />Tony Kalez, owner'of a lumber yard directly across 6th Avenue from the proposed
<br />location, objected to another tavern in the area, saying there were four outlets
<br />within a one-block area. He called attention to apartments adjacent to the tavern
<br />property as well as across the street in which children lived, and to the existing
<br />traffic congestion to which he felt the tavern would add. He thought the Council
<br />would be doing a disservice to people in the area in recommending approval of the
<br />outlet.
<br />
<br />Public hearing was closed, there being no further ~estimony.
<br />
<br />Mr. Williams moved seconded by Mr. McDonald to recommend approval of the license.
<br />
<br />Manager said that staff concern centered on compliance with various building codes
<br />prior to occupancy of the building, but it was understood the ,owner had agreed to
<br />that condition. And it was understood that before a favorable recommendation would
<br />be forwarded to the OLCC there would have to be received a signed affidavit of non-
<br />discrimination as required by the Council. In answer to Councilman McDonald, Manager
<br />explained that the signed affidavits were usually submitted at the time the appli-
<br />cations were filed. However, if for some reason they are not submitted at that time,
<br />it was understood that a favorable recommendation would not be forwarded to the OLCC
<br />unfil the affidavit was received.
