| Those with an interest in commenting on the liquor licence amendment for Port city Spirts on Fraser Street have until May 23rd to submit their comments to the City of Prince Rupert |
Friday afternoon saw the City of Prince Rupert put out it's official announcement calling for additional comments towards the Referral process for Port City Spirits, the proposed distillery and tasting room on Fraser Street that is seeking a lounge amendment.
The call for additional comments came following the May 8th City Council session, where the proposed lounge element became the focus for some significant discussion by the public and the proponents in the public comment period, followed by more discussion by City Councillors later into their Regular Council Session .

Council added the additional time to the comment period following a concern from a member of the public that the information relay towards the original comment period did not provide for enough advance notice.
For it's part Council also noted that with the City's Parking bylaw issue still to be taken care of; there was no urgency towards a council decision towards any referral, deferring that until the May 23rd Council session.
Details towards the extended comment period can be reviewed below:

Some background on last Monday's Council session discussion to the topic can be reviewed below:
In addition to the Port City Spirits item, Council members may also receive a report from City staff at their next council session to offer up recommendations towards how they may wish to address future Liquor Related Referrals from the Province.
That topic made for a secondary Council discussion last week, with City Manager Rob Buchan taking Council through the current process, from that discussion came the request for a follow up report.
