Citywide ISSUE AND BACKGROUND: Section 6-125 of the Smyrna Code of Ordinances prohibits elected or appointed officials from holding a license to sell alcoholic beverages or having an interest in a business that has a license. This provision is outdated and limits potential restaurants within the city. This amendment revises this ordinance and allows these officials to hold such a license or have an interest in a business holding a license, in certain circumstances provided that they publicly declare that interest and do not participate in official city action regarding the license. RECOMMENDATION / REQUESTED ACTION: Staff recommends authorization for the approval of ORD2025-010 for an amendment to Section 6- 125 of the Smyrna Code of Ordinances dealing with the elected or appointed officials holding a license to sell alcoholic beverages and authorize the Mayor to sign and execute all related documents.
