South Charleston council endorses special-event alcohol license, donates surplus vehicle to county

The South Charleston City Council approved two resolutions on consent: one endorsing an application for a special Alcohol Beverage Control Commission (ABCC) license for a one-time MultiFest fundraiser at the Indian Center, and another authorizing the donation of surplus city property to the Kanawha County Parks and Recreation Commission.

Marjorie read the resolution endorsing the ABCC application for the MultiFest fundraiser. Council members described the event as a one-time special event and asked whether the ABCC license was required; staff confirmed that the license from the ABC Commission was necessary. A motion and second were recorded and the council approved the endorsement by voice vote.

A separate resolution to donate surplus property to the county parks commission — identified in discussion as a police vehicle/SUV — was also presented, moved, seconded and approved by voice vote. Council members briefly discussed the item before passage; no conditions or restrictions on the donation were recorded in the meeting.

Both resolutions were passed without recorded amendments. The meeting did not include additional documents or specifics about the ABCC application details (for example, insurance or event security plans) and those items were not specified during discussion.
