The motion carried unanimously by voice vote. Mr. Weeks explained that a letter came to the attention of the Department relating to the rental of the Community Activities Building for a wedding reception and the use of alcoholic beverages. The request was to allow the use of hard liquor for mixed drinks at the reception. It was pointed out that the current rules and regulations permit only the use of beer, wine, and champaign. This information was related to the applicants (Mrs. Marks); however, it was the feeling of Mrs. Marks . that in order to conduct a proper wedding reception, they would like to serve hard liquor. They were. requesting, therefore, a waiver of the rule by the Parks & Recreation Commission. The City Attorney was requested to render an opinion with respect to the Commission's ability or inability to waive the pr.esent rules and regulations for any specific group withou waiving or changing the rules for all groups. It was the Attorney's opinion that the Commission is not in a position to waive current rules and reg- ulations for any particular group without waiving it for all groups. The rules and regulations were made a part of the resolution establishing fees for the buildings which were approved by the City Council. The existing resolution does not provide for waiving the rules, unless the entire rules and regulations are changed. "---- ,---- -.
