At the Standing Committee on City Services and Budgets meeting on April 6, 2006, Council heard speakers on the following reports (Limited Distribution) :

(a)   Final Approval of the Extended Hours of Liquor Service Policy and the Business Premises Regulation of Hours By-law for Standard Hours Liquor Establishments and Extended Hours Liquor Establishments

(b)   Business License Fees for Extended Hours Liquor Establishments.

In regard to report (a) above, staff submitted the following recommendation for Council's consideration as an addition to Recommendation A:

AND FURTHER THAT Council instructs the Chief License Inspector to not enforce the Business Premises Regulation of Hours By-law against establishments in the Downtown Eastside (DEOD) regulation area that are negatively impacted by the enactment of the amended by-law until the comprehensive liquor policy review for the area has been completed.

Due to time constraints, discussion and decision on the two reports was referred to the Regular Council meeting on April 18, 2006 . Council also directed staff, in the interim, to further consult with industry representatives on issues which were raised by speakers at the April 6th meeting.

Subsequently, staff requested the reports be withdrawn from the Regular Council Agenda of April 18, 2006 , in order to allow additional time to consult with the industry. The following memorandum dated April 24, 2006, refers:
