RICKSON, <br />ELL, <br />ECKMAN & <br />UINN, P.A. <br />1700 West Highway 36 <br />Suite 110 <br />Roseville, MN 55113 <br />(651) 223-4999 <br />(651) 223-4987 Fax <br />www.ebbqlaw.com <br />June 3, 2015 <br />Mr. Pat Trudgeon <br />City Manager <br />City of Roseville <br />2660 Civic Center Drive <br />Roseville, MN 55113 <br />Re: City of Roseville re: Ordinances <br />Our File No.: 1011-00183 <br />Dear Mr. Trudgeon: <br />James C. Erickson, Sr. <br />Caroline Bell Beckman <br />Charles R. Bartholdi <br />Kari L. Quinn <br />Mark F. Gaughan <br />James C. Erickson, Jr. <br />Erich J. S. Hartmann <br />Robert C. Bell <br />(1926 - 2014) <br />VIA E-MAIL <br />As we discussed this morning, please find enclosed a redlined version of Roseville City Code <br />Chapter 302-Liquor Control featuring amendments consistent with recent state legislation for <br />microdistilleries and small brewers. We did not have complete direction on the exact desired <br />amendments to City Code, so it would be appropriate for the City Council to fully review this <br />redlined version and discuss the same at the upcoming June 8, 2015, regular council meeting. <br />There are some particular items that I believe are noteworthy in such review: <br />Under 302.02, I have added two new licenses: (1) Off-sale Microdistillery, which under <br />new state law permits the sale of one 375-milliliter bottle per customer per day of <br />distilled spirits produced on-site; and, (2) On-sale Microdistillery Cocktail Room, which <br />under state law permits sale and consumption of distilled liquor drinks on the producer's <br />premises. I am not sure if the City desires one or both of these new licenses, so I included <br />provisions for both. <br />2. Under 302.09, which governs on-sale hours of sale, I did not add any language pertaining <br />to cocktail room hours. This is noteworthy for a few reasons: (1 } the first sentence of this <br />provision in City Code technically encompasses such cocktail rooms, as it simply defers <br />to state law; but (2) it is important to note that under state law only "restaurants, civic <br />clubs (American Legions, etc.), bowling centers, or hotels" may serve on-sale <br />intoxicating liquor on Sundays; and, (3) because the cocktail room provisions of state law <br />are silent on Sunday sales (unlike the taproom provisions, which expressly permits <br />Sunday on-sale), cocktail rooms cannot operate on Sundays. If the Council wishes to be <br />more explicit in this distinction, we can certainly add such a provision to this portion of <br />the Code. <br />3. Under 302.13, I have crafted the limit on Off-sale Microdistillery licenses to be <br />consistent with small brewer's off-sale licenses (which is unlimited), not typical retail <br />off-sale licenses (which is capped at 10). This was not done out of any particular legal or <br />policy assertion, but rather as a starting point for Council discussion. <br />
