Session 1315, Minutes Page 3 September 20, 1982 tax freezing for the rehabilitation project at 900 Eastgate Avenue. He said the owner would sign an agreement not to use other federal subsidies for this project. Mrs. Metcalfe moved approval. Mr. Adams seconded the motion, which carried unani- mously. BEER AND WINE LICENSE - KOH-I-NOOR RESTAURANT The City Manager said the Koh-I-Noor Restaurant, 6271 Delmar, had requested approv- al of a license to sell beer and wine by the drink, for consumption on the premises. All City requirements have been met and the request was in conformance with Council policies. Mr. Lieberman asked the location of the nearest similar license, whether or not ad- jacent property owners had been notified, and where those property owners lived. Mr. Ollendorff said all property owners within the area prescribed by the code (200 feet) were notified. Several calls were received, none of which objected to the proposed license. Mr. Schoomer said he was not aware of any opposition, and that the applicant was well-respected in this neighborhood. Mr. Lieberman`s concern was the reputation which the Council has tried to establish with reference to providing the privilege of allowing liquor by the drink.

Mayor Mooney asked whether there was another establishment in the immediate area which had the same type of license, and if there were restrictions in terms of close- ness. The City Attorney thought there were no restrictions for this type of license and said he would check the statutes. There was further discussion, and it was sug- gested that the matter be deferred. Mr. Adams said there was no reason to defer, and he moved approval. Mr. Schoomer seconded the motion. Mr. Levy suggested that the motion be amended to include that it was subject to the absence of any violation on the point Mr. Lieberman raised. Mr. Lieberman said that kind of motion was not allowed. More discussion ensued, and it was decided to defer action until the City Attorney got the required information from the state statutes. LIQUOR LICENSE - ALL IN ONE FOOD SHOP The City Manager recommended approval of an application to sell beer by the package at the All In One Food Shop, 6511 Olive Street Road. The application met all City ordinances and has been approved by all appropriate departments of the City. The Council has approved similar applications in this commercial zone in the past, thus it appeared to be in keeping with past Council policies, Mr. Ollendorff said. There will be no consumption on the premises. Mr. Lieberman said many residents of the area where the food shop is located consid- ered this establishment to be a residential-type food shop, similar to others which
