At the end of the evening, the Beer Board considered an on‑premise beer permit application for the Silver Saloon (applicant Mason Knopf).
The board reviewed the application and allowed public comment. One board member raised concerns that the background check on the application was strictly local and not a broader national check; the board was advised that the sheriff’s office conducts background checks for the board and that the sheriff’s designated signatory had approved the application.
After brief discussion the board voted 2 in favor and 1 opposed to grant the permit. The applicant was told he could collect the permit at the end of the meeting.
