CLOSING HOURS FOR DRINKING ESTABLISHMENTS
A so present were representatives from local liquor
establishments.
Members reviewed a report from Staff which discussed
the number and types of incidents occurring at drinking
establishments which have a Class "AA" liquor license
allowing extended hours.
The subject report indicated that the liquor
establishments with Class "AA" licenses have the preponderance
of police calls. Additionally, nearby municipalities have
either reduced or are considering the reduction of hours that
liquor establishments can remain open. As a result, members
did not want to encourage residents from other communities
to come to Elk Grove liquor establishments after bars in their
own communities have closed.
Members then reviewed a proposal to amend the closing
hours from 4 a.m. on weekdays and 5 am. on weekends, to 1
a.m. on weekdays and 2 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. Members
also discussed the possibility of eliminating all "AA" licenses
by establishing an "A" license only which requires 2 am. weekday
closings and 3 a.m. closings on weekends.
Owners of liquor establishments expressed a need to
remain open in order to serve the various - shifts in the
industrial park and O'Hare Airport.
Following discussion, consensus was to take the matter
under advisement.
