Overview
The Raspberry Festival has applied for a Temporary 3.2 Beer License, to allow them
to sell 3.2 beer at a boxing match they will sponsor at the Pavilion. The boxing
match is a new event for Raspberry Days. It will be primarily an adult function.
Primal'\! Issues to Consider
o The Raspberry Festival has submitted an application with a certificate of liquor
liability insurance for the event. The certificate of insurance is for $1,000,000
aggregate.
The Hopkins Police have reviewed the application and have found no reason to
deny.
Because this is a public event and open to all public, policy established by past
requirements, would require that the Raspberry Festival pay the cost of providing
uniformed coverage for the event.
This will be the fifth Temporary 3.2 Beer License to be issued during Raspberry
Days.

1.01 The Hopkins City Council recognizes that the issuance of temporary 3.2 beer licenses
may result in events which disturb surrounding businesses and residents and also may
provide an opportunity for underage drinking. The City Council believes that by
creating a set of rules and regulations in regard to the issuance of these licenses,
problems can be avoided and the responsible consumption of 3.2 beer can be
encouraged.
