The City Council of the City of Columbia Heights Hereby Resolves, that:
WHEREAS It is the opinion of the City Council that there are at present
too many "on sale" non-intoxicating malt liquor licenses outstanding in the
City; and,
WHEREAS The large number of beer parlors in the City ma~es it difficult
if not impossible for those engaged in that business remake a reasonable re-
turn on their investment ~ud still obey the law; and,
WHEREAS It is the opinion of the City Council that seven (7) restaurants
and cafes with "on sale" licenses are amply adequate to supply the needs of the
community, and that if the beer parlors were reduced to that number, their
operators would be able to run better establishments:
NOW THEREFORE Be it resolved that the City Council hereby establishes as
a policy for the future, that upon the loss of a license by forfeiture no new
"on sale" non-intoxicating malt liquor licenses will be granted until the
number of licensed premises is reduced to less than seven.
Be it further resolved that a cody of this resolution be delivered to
each licensee now holding an "on sale" non-intoxicating malt liquor license
in this city.
