A. By separate ordinance, the city council may set a limitation upon the number of licenses to sell alcoholic liquor at retail to be issued for each classification of license, or may increase the number of classifications. This restriction upon the number of licenses shall not limit the right to renewal of any existing license nor to the issuance of a license to the purchaser of an established licensed business as a going concern, but as licenses are revoked, expire without renewal or for any reason cease to exist, then the total number of licenses for each classification shall be reduced until the total of each class shall not exceed the number authorized by the city council. (Ord. 06-87, 11-2-1987)
B. The following limits are hereby established on the number of licenses to sell alcoholic beverages in the city:
Class Of License | Number Of Licenses |
A | Not more than 6 |
B | Not more than 3 |
C | Not more than 1 |
