Consider amending the City Code to allow sale of hard liquor on Sunday - Praful Mehta, U & V Discount (Exhibit 1). B. Update regarding Okeechobee Utility Authority - John Hayford, Executive Director. C. Motion to approve a temporary street closing application by Okeechobee Main Street for the Halloween Celebration - City Clerk (Exhibit 2). Mr. Praful Mehta is the owner of U and V Discount, a retail store that sells beer, wine and alcohol. It is located at 515 South Parrott Avenue, Okeechobee. According to the City Code of Ordinances {Section 6-1 (a-d)), establishments which sell beer, wine or liquor may sell only beer and wine on Sunday's from 1 :00 p.m. to 12:00 p.m. midnight. The only exception is when certain holiday's, being Independence Day and New Years Eve, fall on a Sunday, then beer and wine can be sold from 1 :00 p.m. until 2:00 a.m. Monday morning. Mr. Melita is requesting that the Ordinance be changed to include the sale of hard liquor on any holiday that falls on a Sunday. He would also like the Council to consider allowing the sale for Sundays all year long. Police Ohief Davis advised that the County Ordinance does not allow the sale of alcohol other than beer and wine on Sundays either. Following a brief discussion, the Council agreed not to make any changes to the Ordinance at this time and advised Mr. Mehta to notify his customers to stock up before the holidays or Sundays. Mr. John Hayford, Executive Director of the Okeechobee Utility Authority (OUA), gave a positive report of the Board meeting which was held that morning. He stated that there is developer interest and that there were two thousand seven hundred requests for water connections, of those, three hundred fifty have entered into agreements. The update on the progress of the Waste Water Treatment Plant was that Phase one is moving forward. They had received bids but were rejected, so they are planning to rebid this week and trim down the scope of the work. Regarding the ground water plant capacity, it was explained that it is at half capacity, being from 2.5 to 2.7 million gallons per day. A temporary pump with a permanent connection has been installed for the purpose of pumping water to the Water Treatment Plant during hurricanes. The intent is to have a permanent pump within six to nine months. The OUA Board Meetings for November are scheduled for the 7th and the 14th. Mr. Hayford offered to report back to Council after the November 14th meeting. Council Member Chandler moved to approve a temporary street closing application by Okeechobee Main Street for the Halloween Celebration, October 31, 2006, 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. for the portion of SouttrNest 2nd, 3rd and 4th Avenues between North and South Park Street; seconded by Council Member Markham. Council Member Williams asked Attorney Cook whether she should abstain from voting since she is employed by Okeechobee Main Street. Attorney Cook advised she did not have to abstain from voting since the request did not involve any type of gain or benefit.
