and products other than alcoholic beverages."
Mayor Wilks provided background information on the proposed amendment to the Village Code
which was presented and discussed at the December 13, 2011 Committee of the Whole
meeting. World Market, a retail chain that plans to open at Randhurst has requested a liquor
license that would allow the sale of packaged goods. The proposed expansion to the P -2
classification would allow World Market to operate according to their standard business model.
The expanded classification would allow the sale of packaged imported, beer, wine and spirits in
premises where the primary business is the sale of goods and products other than alcoholic
beverages; the sale of pre - packaged food items must be a significant (not merely incidental)
aspect of the business model. The proposed modification would also allow Class P -2 licensees
to obtain an annual "daily sampling" permit for $1,000.
