SUBJECT: An Amendment to Chapter I of Title 4 of the Village Code of the Village of Oak
Brook,Illinois Regarding Liquor License Regulations
FROM: Charlotte K. Pruss, Village Clerk
BUDGET SOURCE/BUDGET IMPACT: N/A
RECOMMENDED MOTION: I move to approve passage of Ordinance G-1046, "An
Ordinance Amending Chapter 1 of Title 4 of the Village Code of the Village of Oak Brook,
Illinois Regarding Liquor License Regulations"
Background/History:
After discussion at the Village Board meeting of March 24, 2015 regarding the Village's Liquor
License Code, direction was given to the Village Attorney and Staff to amend the proposed
ordinance to clarify the amount of alcohol a Class I liquor licensee may serve in a single drink.
Staff has updated Section 4-1-16 of the Village Code as requested by the Board, the code has
been amended to use a standard of limiting the amount of alcohol in a drink, instead of the size
of container. These conditions have been specifically tailored for movie theaters. The following
standards will be used:
4-1-16 CLASS I LICENSE RESTRICTIONS
D. No more than 24 ounces of Beer may be sold in a single container at a time. No more
than eight ounces of Wine may be sold in a single container at a time.
E. Except for the sale of beer and wine, no drink may be sold that contains more than three
ounces of alcohol.
A
Recommendation:
The recommendation is for passage of Ordinance G-1046, "An Ordinance Amending Chapter 1
of Title 4 of the Village Code of the Village of Oak Brook, Illinois Regarding Liquor License
Regulations " and which increases the number of Class I liquor licenses by one.
