Commission recommends tasting-room permit for downtown site to state liquor board

The Mount Clemens City Commission voted to adopt a resolution recommending that the Michigan Liquor Control Commission consider an application for an on‑premises tasting room at 104 Macomb Place in downtown Mount Clemens.

City staff presented the request and the resolution, and a commissioner moved the recommendation. Commissioners greeted the prospective business and welcomed it to town. The vote to recommend the tasting-room application to the MLCC passed on a roll-call vote.

The applicant name appears inconsistently in the meeting transcript (variants include forms transcribed as “World Bridal Winery LLC,” “World Marietta Winery LLC,” and other similar renderings). The record shows the location as 104 Macomb Place; commission action recorded was limited to recommending the application for state consideration, not granting a city liquor license.

By design, the city’s resolution is a local recommendation to the MLCC; final licensing authority rests with that state agency. Commissioners offered a brief welcome and asked no substantive changes be made to the recommendation before transmission to the MLCC.

Next steps: the city will forward the resolution to the Michigan Liquor Control Commission for its review; the MLCC will issue the final determination on the permit application.
