3/19/2015 - City Denies Hard Liquor License To Antigo Gas Station -
edf40wrjww2Info:InfoText Wednesday afternoon the Fairgrounds Promotional committee met for their monthly meeting. The committee discussed possibly storing the Red Robin transit buses at the fairgrounds to cut costs. There are four buses in play, and they would be parked in the commercial building in the winter and near the maintenance building in the summer. The building would have to be ventilated at a cost of $15,000. Finance Director Gary Olsen also went through the committees budget. Water and Sewer costs jumped significantly as well as liability insurance. There will be enough money to make repairs to the school house and have a dump station. They also discussed ways to shorten the race track to get more events, and the future of the horse barn.
The Antigo FPL committee also met Wednesday evening. The committee denied a class A liquor license request from Kwik Trip in Antigo. A manager for the gas station attended the meeting and said they werent trying to sell hard liquor, but wine and hard cider. Antigo Mayor Bill Brandt said they couldnt regulate a state license, and its been the citys policy for several years to not allow gas stations to obtain the license. Antigo Fire Chief Jon Petrosky also requested to buy a UTV they could take to rural areas. 1,500 pounds was the minimum weight that Petrosky wanted to carry, and thats what was on the bid. Three companies were involved and two included machines allowing 1,500 pounds, and the other company proposed a 1,900 pound capacity machine. Brandt said the process should be rebid, because the other companies were not contacted to find out the maximum they could offer. Changes were also made to the cemetery, camping, and parks ordinances.
