WILKS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES FROM: VILLAGE MANAGER DATE: APRIL 26,2007 SUBJECT: CVS IPHARMACY #3110 1002 SOUTH BUSSE ROAD REQUEST FOR NEW CLASS "C-1" LIQUOR LICENSE On Friday, April 20, 2007, Village Manager E. Michael Janonis met with Mr. Michael Haas, store manager at the above referenced CVS pharmacy regarding the application for a Class "C_1" liquor license. The "C-1" designation provides for the sale of alcoholic beverages in packages only in stores greater than 1 0,000 feet where the sale of alcohol is an ancillary item of sale. The CVS pharmacy at this location has been in existence for over five years. It has never made application for a liquor license. As a bit of history, a CVS pharmacy located at Rand and Elmhurst roads in Mount Prospect held a Class "P" liquor license until it closed in October 2005. According to Mr. Haas, CVS is a publicly traded company that recently acquired the Osco Drug Store chain. The total number of stores in the CVS system is approximately 6000. Due to the fact that all of the acquired Os co Stores held liquor licenses, a corporate decision was made to follow suit with existing CVS locations. Approximately one aisle in the store will be devoted to the sale of liquor as well as a small refrigerated selection of beer and wine. The Village Manager discussed at length with Mr. Haas the Village Liquor Code including the Village's particular sensitivity to the sale of alcohol to minors or clearly intoxicated persons. The requirements of the Fight Ordinance were also discussed. Mr. Haas indicated that he has previously managed an Os co Drug store that held a liquor license. Mr. Haas also indicated that CVS has established a comprehensive training program for store managers and employees covering liquor sales. A completed application along with fees have been submitted. Mr. Haas has submitted to the required background check and fingerprinting. Most other supporting documentation has also been submitted. If the Village Board considers this application favorably an Ordinance should be adopted creating a new Class "C-1" license. Said license will be issued upon submittal of any outstanding documentation. MEJ/dj II ORDINANCE NO.

WILKS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES VILLAGE MANAGER TO: DATE: APRIL 24, 2007 WU SUNG RESTAURANT 1747-49 WEST ALGONQUIN ROAD NEW CLASS "S" LIQUOR LICENSE SUBJECT: On Tuesday, April 24, 2007, Village Manager Michael E. Janonis, met with Eunjoo Lee and her interpreter, current owner, Mr. Daniel Lee regarding her request for a Class "S" liquor license. The Class "S" designation provides for full liquor service in a restauranUlounge setting. Wu Sung restaurant serves Korean cuisine and is open for lunch and dinner. Ms. Lee does not plan any immediate changes to the present decor or menu and most staff will remain the same. This particular request for a liquor license is surrounded by unusual circumstances that warrant some detailed explanation. The sale of Wu Sung Restaurant is being prompted by an "Agreed Order" issued by the Mount Prospect Liquor Commissioner on January 30, 2007. Among other things, the Order provided that the current Class "S" liquor license, issued to Mr. Daniel Lee would not be renewed for the 2007- 2008 license period or thereafter and that the current licensee could not apply for such a license. Pursuant to the January 30, 2007 Order, the current Class "S" license issued to Wu Sung must be deleted. The May 1, 2007 Village Board agenda includes an Ordinance deleting the subject license. The only way for the restaurant to continue operating with a liquor license is for a new owner to make application and request the creation of a new Class "S" license. Ms. Eunjoo Lee is the prospective buyer and approval of the pending liquor license application is a condition of the sale of the business. Mr. Lee will no longer be associated with the business. Given the short but problem plagued ownership by Mr. Lee, the Village Manager meticulously discussed with Eunjoo Lee the topics of: hours of operations, liquor sales after permitted hours, sales to minors and clearly intoxicated persons and reporting requirements under the Fight Ordinance. The applicant, through Mr. Lee, indicated that she understood the requirements and intended to comply with same. Ms. Lee indicates that she has some experience with liquor service in working for a number of hotels. At the meeting Ms. Lee produced proof that she had passed a certified liquor server's course. The Liquor Commissioner has reviewed Ms. Lee application and is comfortable forwarding same to the Village Board for passage of an ordinance creating a new Class "S" license. A completed application along with all applicable fees has been submitted. Ms. Lee has been fingerprinted and a background completed. Most required documents are on file. If the Village Board views the application favorably, it would be appropriate to adopt an ordinance creating a new Class "S" license. Said license would be issued once all outstanding documentation has been submitted. MEJ/dj IS ORDINANCE NO.
