ELEGANT E V E N T C E N T E R Enhanced Community Engagement: By offering a safe and controlled environment for late -night gatherings, the Elegant Event Center can help reduce the occurrence of unsupervised and potentially unsafe late -night activities in the community. Our facility will be equipped with professional security and strict adherence to all local regulations, ensuring a secure setting for all attendees. Balanced Approach to Alcohol Service: Our plan to end alcohol service at 2 AM, one hour before closing, demonstrates our commitment to responsible alcohol management. This policy provides a buffer period for guests to enjoy the remainder of their evening in a safe and relaxed manner, reducing the risk of overconsumption and promoting a more orderly dispersal at closing time. Community -Oriented Events: The extended hours allow us to support community -oriented events that may run late into the night, such as charity fundraisers, cultural festivals, and social gatherings that foster community spirit. These events play a crucial role in building a sense of belonging and unity among residents of Arden Hills. We believe that the Elegant Event Center, with its commitment to diversity, economic growth, and community safety, will be an asset to Arden Hills. We respectfully request your consideration of our proposal to operate until 3 AM, ensuring that our venue can fully serve the needs and aspirations of our diverse audience. Benefits to the Community Economic Growth Job Creation: The project will create employment opportunities, including event staff, kitchen staff, servers, and administrative positions.
