City considers revised liquor code and ambulance bid
The council introduced an ordinance clarifying liquor sale rules splitting the C license into C-1 for off premise beer and wine and C-2 for on premise sales. Minors may attend taverns for special occasions with prior approval. Taverns may open on New Year’s Eve if Sunday without extra permissions and credit cards will be accepted. The panel also approved a Foster Coach ambulance bid of 58,900 for a used 1989 demo model with 2,500 miles, rejecting a 60,020 bid for a new unit as over budget.
