ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - May 12, 2008 5 currently located there and adding more equipment may pose a larger problem for other equipment. She felt that the cooling and ventilation in this room should be addressed before the multimedia system was relocated. Public Works Director Hoag stated that he had talked with the building official regarding the ventilation in the equipment room and that he was currently working with Johnson Controls for alternatives for cooling this room. They will continue to work on the problems and bring a plan to the Council. Councilmember Holden requested this be addressed within the next six months. Mayor Harpstead stated that moving the equipment to the equipment room would also allow it to be shut down which, in its current location, was not an option. MOTION: Mayor Harpstead moved and Councilmember Grant seconded a Motion to Approve the May 5, 2008, Quote from Tierney Brothers, Inc. for the Replacement and Repair of the Multimedia System in the Council Chambers for an Amount Not to Exceed $15, 467.45 from the Cable Fund, Provided the Problems with the Equipment Room were Resolved. Councilmember Holmes asked for clarification regarding the time line for these repairs. Councilmember Grant stated that staff was aware of the Council's concerns regarding the ventilation and cooling in the equipment room and the investment the City had in equipment and the need to preserve this investment. The motion carried unanimously (5-0) Co Motion to Approve Flaherty's Arden Bowl's Request to Amend their Liquor License Application to Expand the Licensed Alcoholic Bevera2e Service Area to include the Enclosed Outdoor Patio Planner I Beekman stated that the City was currently in the process of updating its codes pertaining to liquor licenses to better coincide with State statutes and that the current City Codes do not prohibit alcoholic beverage service on patio areas as long as it is identified in the license and the area of the patio is used to calculate the fees. Councilmember Holden asked if the revision of the City Codes would impact this request and also for clarification on what was meant by enclosed outdoor patio. Planner I Beekman stated that staff would not be recommending any changes to the outdoor consumption portion of the codes so there would be no impact on this request. She also stated that this request was not for any structural buildings but rather would be a fenced off area surrounded by shrubs and trees.
