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provision is outdated and limits potential restaurants within the city.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.
