Overview

Body
Staff Recommendation
Adopt the Ordinance.
Fiscal Impact
Potential increase in alcoholic liquor dealer’s tax.
Background
Obsessed Kitchen and Bar has applied for a Restaurant Class B-4 Liquor License at the Property. Obsessed Kitchen and Bar is purchasing the current business operated Kinderhook Tap, LLC (“Kinderhook”) at the Property. Thus, a new liquor license must be issued to the new owner as required by the Vilage Code. At its meeting on January 24, 2017, the Liquor Control Review Board (“LCRB”) determined that Obsessed Kitchen and Bar met all of the applicable requirements for the issuance of the licenses and recommended that the Village Code be amended by a unanimous vote of its members so that the Local Liquor Control Commissioner may issue the licenses. The issuance of the license is contingent upon Kinderhook paying any and all alcoholic liquor taxes due and owing to the Village.
