IV.A
Consider an Application for a Class B (Package Liquor) Liquor
License for Krushnam LLC dba Chicago Dreams Wine & Spirits
Located at 1565 N. Quentin Road
BACKGROUND:
On this evening's agenda is a request for a Special Use Transfer for 1565 N. Quentin
Road, formerly known as Inverness Wine & Spirits, to be renamed Chicago Dreams
Wine & Spirits. The petitioner, owner of Krushnam LLC, Rhytham Dave, wishes to
apply for a Class B (Package Liquor) liquor license. The Village has an available Class
B license due to the 100% ownership change of this package liquor store. The
petitioner will be present to answer any questions from the Commission. The permitted
hours for a Class B liquor license are Sunday through Saturday, 6 AM to Midnight.
KEY ISSUES:
• A copy of the application is on file in the Village Manager's Office.
• The petitioner will be present Monday evening to answer any questions of the
Commission.
• Per the submitted business plan, CBD/Hemp/THC product sales are not
included and are therefore prohibited from being sold at the store. If, in the
future, the Petitioner wishes to offer these items for sale, an amendment to the
Special Use (including formal zoning review and public hearing) would be
required.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The annual fee for a Class B Liquor License is $4,097.
RECOMMENDATION:
Action is at the discretion of the Commission.
ACTION REQUIRED:
Action is at the discretion of the Commission.
