Big Lost Meadery, LLC, is requesting the transfer of the Winery Permit from its current location of 106 S. Gillette Avenue to 601 S. Douglas Hwy (the old Prairiefire Building).
W.S. 12-4-412(b)(vii) allows the permit holder to transfer the location of the winery permit upon approval of the Local Licensing Authority.
They are also requesting a Winery Satellite Permit. W.S. 12-4-412(d) states that the Licensing Authority may issue a Winery Satellite Permit to the holder of a Winery Permit for up to three (3) satellite locations, allowing for the manufactured product to be sold for on-premises and off-premises consumption at the satellite location.
The Licensing Authority may require the payment of an additional fee not to exceed $100 regardless of the number of satellite locations. Because this is the first of its kind in Gillette, Council will need to determine this fee.
The satellite permit shall be subject to the terms and conditions of W.S. 12-4-106 regarding the term of the license or permit; the schedule of operating hours provided in W.S. 12-5-101; and the dispensing room provisions of W.S. 12-5-201
Big Lost Meadery, LLC, is required to submit paperwork to the Alcohol/Tobacco Tax & Trade Bureau. This has been done and therefore, the transfer of location, and the satellite permit are being requested contingent upon receiving the necessary documents from the Alcohol/Tobacco Tax & Trade Bureau.
Pizza Carrello is also moving into this building and will be requesting a Bar & Grill liquor license. Both entities can hold a liquor license/permit in the same building. However, they must operate independently of each other. Each entity will report their own respective business transactions to the appropriate agencies for taxing, renewal, etc., purposes. Pizza Carrello can purchase wine (mead) from Big Lost Meadery for on-premises consumption only.
