The Resolution addressed the allocation of four licenses for churches, four licenses for civic non-profit organizations and six licenses for youth groups.

The application was reviewed and approved for eligibility under the provisions of Section 6.32.050. ALTERNATIVES: Not to approve the attached Resolution. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
