VILLAGE OF LA FARGE

                     Special Board Meeting          Monday July 31, 2023

                                                                   

1). Village President Pro-Tem Aaron Nemec called the special meeting of the La Farge Village Board to order at 6:30 p.m. at the Emergency Services building.

 

Roll Call – Present at the meeting:

All Board members: Nemec, Terry Jensen, Karen Leis, Barbara Melvin, Dave Fish, Aaron Appleman, and Frank Quinn (Call-in).             

Also: News reporters Lonnie Muller and Bonnie Sherman, and Clerk Kimberly Walker.    

              

2). Verification was given of meeting publishing in the La Farge Episcope on July 18, 2023, and of posting at the Bank, Post Office, and Village Office on Thursday, July 27, 2023.   

           

3). Received an original alcohol beverage license application from Toors Easy Stop, Inc. They are applying for the Zzip Stop. Shane Nottestad is still the owner of the Zzip Stop establishment but has an operating agreement with Toors Easy Stop, as they are a wholesaler of goods. Toors is a huge company with many stores and by having them take over the wholesale part, Shane can keep in competition with the big companies. And since they are taking over the wholesale part, they need to apply for the alcohol beverage license to be put in their name, to be able to buy and sell the items. If the board agrees to grant the license, Shane will need to relinquish his current license. A business can’t have 2 licenses. Shane wrote a letter stating he would do this. Upon checking with the Alcohol and Tobacco Department at the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, this is the correct way to do this. Jensen moved, Leis seconded to approve the alcohol beverage license application, as long as Shane relinquishes his license. (Carried).       

 

4). Melvin moved, Jensen seconded to adjourn. (Carried). Adjourned at 6:35 p.m.
