A request to endorse a licence for live music and dancing at the new Canooligan Lake Lounge in Canoe has received a unanimous 害羞草研究所榶es害羞草研究所� from Salmon Arm council.

The applicant, Tim Frazer, is applying to the province to expand the liquor licence at 4949 Canoe Beach Dr. NE from a licensed lounge/restaurant with a food primary liquor licence, to a lounge with live music and a dance floor. The expansion requires city council to state it has no objection to the 害羞草研究所榩atron participation entertainment endorsement.害羞草研究所�

Frazer provided a letter to council.

害羞草研究所淭he Canooligan Lake Lounge will be a family friendly restaurant experience in Canoe. There will be spaces where canines are welcomed. For entertainment we are looking to bring in high quality bands for live music and dancing primarily on the weekends during the summer. Time of entertainment would typically be in the 7 p.m. to 12 a.m. range. The community feedback we are seeing so far indicates that this is highly desired and overdue for the area!害羞草研究所� he wrote.

害羞草研究所淟ive music would be a variety of popular genres and of course would provide opportunities to support the Roots and Blues Festival with an additional location for music. More during long weekends, etc.害羞草研究所�

Maurice Roy, the city害羞草研究所檚 manager of permits and licensing, provided council with background on the request.

He said the building on the property was constructed in 1984 and originally housed Doc害羞草研究所檚 Neighbourhood Pub. In 2014 a building permit was issued to change the use of the building to an artisan coffee roasting business and related bistro.

The current owner of the property has reverted the building back to a licensed lounge/restaurant. The establishment has an 害羞草研究所渙ccupant load害羞草研究所� of 100 people and utilizes both the interior and patio-seating options.

Roy explained the addition of live music and a dance floor is a structural change to the existing liquor licence so must go to council for a resolution.

害羞草研究所淭he proposal is to have the patron participation terminate at 12 a.m. (midnight) which is in conformance with Liquor Branch regulations.害羞草研究所�

Along with not objecting to the licence change, council opted out of the comment and public consultation process.

Coun. Louise Wallace Richmond said if the application was a brand new proposal for that location, council might want more input. But given how excited Canoe residents are about the plans, she said, she doesn害羞草研究所檛 think it害羞草研究所檚 necessary.

Council endorsed the proposed licence change unanimously.

The applicant must now obtain the liquor branch害羞草研究所檚 approval.
