I support it being approved for this year, but I do not think this should be automatically renewed annually without Council review. Councilwoman Hemann voted no with comment. I concur with Councilman Limpert that I believe too many things are being taken out of Council's hands and they need to be reviewed annually. So, while I agree that alcohol being served at a City event is not the issue. The issue is so many things are being rubber stamped. I think that is inappropriate.
