Council committee OKs additional Class D liquor license for Relish Catering Kitchen; operator pledges training and fingerprinting

The Police Policy and Code Services Committee recommended adding one Class D restaurant liquor license for Relish Catering Kitchen at 512 West Northwest Highway and placed the ordinance on the council’s consent agenda Tuesday.

Staff said the Palatine Park District clubhouse operator selection resulted in the request and that a new license would be created for the incoming operator rather than transferred. "Liquor licenses are unique to the individual operators," staff told the committee.

John Eggert, identifying himself as the owner of Relish Catering Kitchen, introduced his company and said servers will be fingerprinted by the police department and trained in responsible alcohol service. "We're planning on... training our people in all of the BASSETT certifications so that they have the proper training for selling alcohol," Eggert said.

The committee voted to place the item on the consent agenda. At the council reconvening later in the meeting, the full consent agenda passed by roll-call vote.
