Liquor Licence Application - Luxor Banquet Hall -

4250 Dufferin Street - North York Spadina

 The North York Community Council recommends that City Council endorse the following Resolution by Councillor Howard Moscoe, North York Spadina:

 WHEREAS the former Liquor Licence Board, now known as the Alcohol and Gaming Commission, rejected Application No. 48580 to establish a night club, "the Luxor", at 4250 Dufferin Street on February 24, 1995; and

 WHEREAS this rejection was based on deputations from some 600 residents in opposition, including the City of North York; and

 WHEREAS the Alcohol and Gaming Commission, through public hearings, rejected a leave to appeal the first application in July 1996; and

 WHEREAS a new application (No. 88731) for a liquor licence for Luxor has been submitted to the Alcohol and Gaming Commission;

 NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT the City of Toronto advise the Alcohol and Gaming Commission that the City of Toronto is opposed to Application No. 88731 submitted June 19, 1998, for a liquor licence for the Luxor at 4250 Dufferin Street unless the application is amended to specifically exclude the operation of a night club and submitted under the name "Luxor Banquet Hall" as indicated on the attached notice; and

 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the City Solicitor assist in preparing the wording of an amendment to the liquor licence application to ensure that it cannot be used to operate a night club.
