Opportunity to Comment Liquor Licence Amendment
April 5, 2016
The Fernie Brewing Co. located at 26 Manitou Road has applied to the Liquor Control and Licencing Branch for Brewery Lounge Endorsement (amended from Picnic Licence). Council will consider written and verbal submissions with respect to the change at the Regular Meeting to be held on Monday, April 11, 2016 at 7:00pm in the Council Chambers, in City Hall, 501-3rd Avenue, Fernie B.C.
If approved, the change will allow the licensed brewery to sell and serve any kind of liquor for consumption on site in the approved lounge area, provided the cost of liquor products other than those manufactured on site does not exceed 20% of the total cost of products for sale in the lounge. The applicant currently has a manufacturing licence with a retail sales endorsement. The Lounge endorsement, if approved, will be indoors and overlap the retail sales endorsement/tasting area and have an outdoor patio. Total occupant load for the lounge and patio is 47 patons.
