3. <br />Liquor license required for change in management for two Walgreens, 530 N. <br />McKnight and 7501 Olive. <br /> <br />Mr. Crow moved for approval and the motion was seconded by Mr. Sharpe. <br /> <br />Mr. Crow noted that Robbin Griffith was the managing officer for Walgreens and is <br />in an office manager of a law firm in Jefferson City and paid property taxes in Eldon, <br />Missouri. He said at some point, the City needs to go back through the liquor <br />license approval process and determine a different way to do this. Mr. Crow was <br />not sure the City is getting the information that they truly need to make an <br />appropriate decision on the true applicant. <br /> <br />Ms. Ricci agrees with Mr. Crow and asked for a study session because the liquor <br />licenses have legal implications broader than University City as they are governed <br />by State law. <br /> <br />4. <br />Liquor license required for change in management for Qudoba Mexican Grill at 6625 <br />Delmar. <br />Mr. Glickert moved to approved, was seconded by Mr. Price and the motion carried <br />unanimously. <br /> <br />5. <br />Solicitation permit's application for “Fund for the Public Interest.” <br />Mr. Walker noted that the City attorney was consulted to determine what options <br />exist in relation to this request and Mr. Mulligan has advised that there were not any <br />options except to approve it. <br /> <br />Mr. Crow moved for approval and was seconded by Ms. Ricci. <br /> <br />Mr. Kraft asked why they were voting on this request if there was no choice. <br /> <br />Ms. Ricci said she paused when considering this since this is a fund for public <br />interest yet it is for political purpose and the donation cannot be deducted from the <br />donor’s taxes. <br /> <br />Mr. Walker asked Mr. Mulligan to speak on the issue. Mr. Mulligan said that it was <br />reviewed by staff and the organization met the criteria set out by the code for <br />charitable solicitations. If met, the Council has no discretion according to the <br />ordinance. He said charitable organizations are protected as a form of speech <br />protected under the First Amendment. <br /> <br />Ms. Ricci said the donations are for political purposes and asked if that falls under <br />the charitable umbrella and their own literature says it is not deductible as a <br />charitable donation. <br /> <br />Mr. Mulligan said the court opinions define charitable as meaning not-for-profit. He <br />said the City does have authority to regulate speech to prevent fraud, to prevent <br />residents from being taken advantage of, has the right to identify the person that is <br />collecting so background checks can be done, to find out the financial background <br />of the organization and what the money is used for and residents privacy rights. <br />Regulation is then done by a permit with defined and reasonable standards. A <br />permit is required when money is being solicited. <br /> <br /> <br />
