Announcement of Special Liquor Commission Meeting on April 21,
1999, at 1 p.m.
Chairman Pro Tem Yearman announced that a special Liquor
Commission meeting will be held April 21, 1999, at 1 p.m. to
consider the applications for renewal for liquor licenses for
the 1999-2000 license year.
Chairman Secretary Mecum stated that an application for a liquor
license filed by the Elgin Plaza Hotel will also be considered
at the April 21 meeting.
However, a review by the Zoning Officer revealed that the Summit
School is now located on property adjacent to the hotel
property, and the Elgin Municipal Code prohibits the issuance of
a liquor license to any premises within 100 feet of any school .
A liquor license may not be issued for the applicant hotel
unless the Code is amended.
Corporation Counsel Cogley described the following options for
amending the Code which would permit the Liquor Commission to
consider approving the application: 1 ) prohibition could be
limited to initial liquor licenses at a premises located within
100 feet of a church or school; 2) prohibition could exclude
restaurants with regular capacity to serve more than 150 persons
rft and hotels having not fewer than 150 guest room; 3) or a
combination of these two alternatives .
The Liquor Commission directed that this matter be placed on the
Council agenda for the April 14 , 1999, meeting and that the
various alternatives be presented to the Council for their
consideration.

A discussion was held regarding the letters received from R. R.
Donnelly and Home Federal Savings and the memorandum from the
Police Department regarding various issues involving the Spring
Street parking deck. Large quantities of beer cans and bottles
litter the parking deck and individuals drink alcohol in the
parking deck and harass R. R. Donnelly employees as they arrive
for and leave work. The Police Department believes the problem
stems from the fact that many of the patrons leaving Elgin
Restaurant at closing time purchase beer for off-premise
consumption and drink it in the parking deck. The manager of
Elgin Restaurant stated that he believes a number of their
customers purchase and consume beer prior to arriving at Elgin
Restaurant and then discard the containers at the parking deck.
He stated that he will have his employees pick up the litter,
and he will also make annoucements at his establishment during
the evening regarding the prohibition of littering and drinking

in the parking deck. He also indicated that he would not want
to eliminate his ability to sell beer for off-site consumption.
The Commission also discussed the issue of an open window in the
Mission' s women' s bathroom, which is across the street from the
parking deck. The owner of the Mission stated that he now has a
bathroom attendant, and he will block the window so that it will
not be possible to view anyone in the bathroom from the deck.

The Elgin Liquor Code provides that when there is a change in

If the Liquor Commission gives tentative approval for a Class
B-1 license to the new owner, it is necessary to have the City
Council consider whether or not to increase the number of B-1
licenses in order to make a license available for the new owner
of the convenient store or gasoline station.

333 South McLean Boulevard have advised her they also intend to
surrender their liquor license on June 8 .
Commissioner Wasilowski made a motion, seconded by Chairman
