CCR2022.021-2022 Beer Garden
COMMON COUNCIL - CITY OF MUSKEGO
RESOLUTION #021-2022
APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF MUSKEGO AND
ANY LICENSED VENDOR AND/OR NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION
TO OPERATE A BEER GARDEN
WHEREAS, The City of Muskego has hosted a pop-up beer garden event at Veterans Memorial Park since
2017; and
WHEREAS, In 2021, the City entered into an Agreement with Component Brewing Company, LLC to
operate a beer garden for the third consecutive season; and
WHEREAS, Attendance at the 2021 beer gardens was noticeably lower than past years; they have become
very popular throughout our region which create competition; familiarity of the beer garden, location, and
a single vendor may also have been contributing factors; and
WHEREAS, Beer gardens are still very much prevalent within our region and act as a welcoming event for
families and friends to visit our community and enjoy our parks; and
WHEREAS, To become more flexible with these events, as opposed to entering into an Agreement with a
sole vendor, a Beer Garden Application has been developed to allow the opportunity for any licensed
vendor and/or non-profit organization interested in hosting a beer garden(s) event to do so within the
Muskego Parks system; and
WHEREAS, Approval of a Beer Garden Application would be handled by staff in the same manner and
under the same terms and conditions as any other special event attempting to come to the Muskego
community; and
WHEREAS, As a result of the above, City staff is requesting the authority to enter into an agreement with
any licensed vendor and/or non-profit organization who meets the qualifications outlined in the Application
for the purpose of hosting a beer garden at a Muskego park in 2022; and
WHEREAS, The Finance Committee has reviewed the terms and conditions of the 2022 Agreement form
as attached hereto and recommends approval.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED That the Common Council of the City of Muskego, upon the
recommendation of the Finance Committee, does hereby approve the attached Beer Garden Agreement
between the City of Muskego and any licensed vendor and/or non-profit organization that staff deems
qualified subject to compliance with all terms and conditions stated therein.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED That the Mayor is authorized to sign the Agreements and the City Attorney
is authorized to make substantive changes to the Agreements as may be necessary in order to preserve
the general intent thereof.
DATED THIS 22nd DAY OF MARCH 2022.
