City Council Meeting Minutes September 29, 2021 <br />MAIN MOTION: A motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Derrick, seconded <br />by Council Member Garza, to approve the request by Eric White, on behalf of <br />Vodka Street Global Bistro, for the renewal of a Conditional Use Permit to <br />allow the sale and on -premise consumption of Mixed Beverages at 200 North <br />LBJ Drive, Suite 101. <br />Mayor Pro Tem Derrick asked the applicant why the CUP lapsed for one year <br />and about the fire code violations. Mr. White responded the CUP comes up <br />every 3 years. In the past the landowner of the property would bring him the <br />renewal form and he never had problems. He stated the building was sold <br />about three years ago and during COVID the business was closed and they <br />didn't receive mail, he stated he didn't realize that happened. Regarding the <br />fire code violations, the Fire Department stated there were violations but were <br />not out of norm for a business that hasn't been inspected in awhile. The health <br />department issues have been resolved and he only needed to sign off on the <br />action plan. <br />Council Member Gleason asked applicant if he has been in good standing with <br />the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) throughout the process. <br />Mr. White stated yes, he has. Mr. Gleason asked staff if the applicant has <br />signed the corrective action plan and if staff is satisfied. Ms. O'Brien stated <br />they discussed the action plan with the applicant and the next inspection is <br />scheduled. Mr. Gleason confirmed with staff that quarterly inspections will be <br />required and they have the ability to disconnect utilities, if applicant doesn't <br />follow the action plan. Ms. O'Brien confirmed these requirements. Mr. White <br />stated he is aware of these requirements. Council Member Gleason would like <br />the applicant to assist with alleviating the disturbances occurring outside of the <br />establishment. <br />MOTION TO AMEND: A motion was made by Council Member Gleason, <br />seconded by Council Member Baker, to amend condition #1 by striking <br />through three years and inserting 6 months.
