LICENSE APPROVALS
Mr. Shook appeared before the Committee to discuss the Application for a Temporary
Class “B” Retailer’s License submitted by the All Muskego High School Class Reunion
Committee. The event is scheduled to be held at Veteran’s Memorial Park on
September 2. The site plan incorporates approximately one third the size used for the
Community Festival, with one large tent, or two smaller tents proposed. Mr. Shook
stated he has appeared before the Parks and Recreation Board and received approval.
He has also discussed the event with the Police Department. It is intended that the
entire site will be fenced and wrist bands used for identification purposes. Underage
persons will be allowed. The Mayor stated that the request for music until midnight was
too late and also informed Mr. Shook that several people will need to obtain Temporary
Operators’ Licenses. Ald. Chiaverotti stated that vendors are prohibited from driving
through the park’s archway. Ald. Salentine moved to approve the Class “B” Retailer’s
License with the following conditions: fencing of the entire area or at a minimum the
area where the beer would be served, beer allowed on the premise until midnight with
sales to end at 11:30 p.m., music to end at 11:30 p.m., underage persons will be
allowed, yellow wristbands utilized, and a minimum of three licensed operators is
required. The Mayor noted that the Parks and Recreation Board approval required
fencing around the entire perimeter of the event. Ald. Sanders seconded; motion
carried unanimously.
NEW BUSINESS
Review Request of the All-Muskego High School Reunion Committee to Waive Costs
Discussion continued with Mr. Shook regarding the September 2 event and the need
for on-site security as required by the Parks and Recreation Board. The Reunion
Committee is requesting that the City waive the costs for the Police Department to
provide security. Mr. Shook noted that it is not the intent of the Reunion Committee to
make money; any profit will be given to the high school. Ald. Salentine suggested that

officers be asked to donate their time. Ald. Slocomb commented that the City has not
approved this type of request in the past. Security is generally the responsibility of the
individual group holding an event. Mr. Shook stated that Chief Johnson indicated
security primarily entails checking i.d.’s and he will handle. If individuals were
appointed for security purposes would that be sufficient? The Mayor responded that he
did not know what the intent of the Parks and Recreation Board was. Ald. Patterson
stated that a plan must be in place if something does happen prior to the police
arriving. Mr. Shook stated he would consult further with Chief Johnson regarding
providing adequate security and withdrew the request.
VOUCHER APPROVAL
Ald. Salentine moved to recommend approval of payment of General Vouchers in the
amount of $657,261.88 Tax Checks in the amount of $672.04 and Utility Vouchers in
the amount of $815,123.47. Ald. Slocomb seconded; motion carried unanimously.

unanimously.
