The existing memorandum of <br /> agreement with the Decatur Park District and with G&H Marine sets a goal of eventually having <br /> a full service marina (more and newer boat docks, boat rentals, a convenience store, gas sales by <br /> the marina operator, additional food service options, and other marina-related services). G&H <br /> Marine is making progress toward this goal incrementally. In 2024,G&H Marine will be installing <br /> additional docks, taking over gas sales, and putting a convenience store inside the maintenance <br /> building the city has leased from the Decatur Park District since 1934. As a part of G&H Marine's <br /> business plan, they have requested that they be issued a package liquor license for this location, <br /> this requires an amendment of Chapter 52, concerning Class "F"licenses. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTIONS: Both the Devon Amphitheater and the Beach House have liquor <br /> licenses,but they are both different classes. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: Amy Waks, Assistant Corporation Counsel, at 424-2807. <br /> BUDGET/TIME IMPLICATIONS: None <br />
