2. Informational Session – Vermillion Municipal Liquor Store - Gregg
Peters
Gregg Peters, Liquor Store Manager, reported that there has been an
increase in the number of craft beers being produced but noted that
many of the craft beers are not available in cans or bottles but kegs
only. Gregg stated that to make these craft beers available a growler
fill station is needed, whereby a growler (a 32 or 64 ounce plastic or
glass container) is filled from a keg. Gregg explained how a growler
fill station worked noting that the station he would like to install in
the liquor store would hold six beer kegs with one fill station. Gregg
stated that the total cost of the fill station would be $15,000 and he
projected a payback in 2 to 3 years. Gregg answered questions of the
City Council on the fill station. Discussion followed with the
consensus of the City Council to go forward with the growler fill
station and revise the budget later this year for the capital purchase.
3. Informational Session – Overview of proposed WAPA Firm Electric
Service agreement – John Prescott
John Prescott, City Manager, reported that Western Area Power
Administration (WAPA) provided on average about 65% of the city
electric power needs with Missouri River Energy Services providing the
balance. John stated that our current power supply contract with WAPA
will expire in December 2020 and that WAPA started the contract renewal
process in 2011. John stated that MRES has been assisting all its
members with their contract renewals providing legal review. John noted
that two of the major items are that the contract is for 30 years
expiring in 2050 and it continues our current summer and winter power
allotment that can be reduced up to 1% in 2021, 2031 and 2041 but
requires two years advance notice. John noted that the contracts are
1
the same for all WAPA preference power customers. John stated that the
next step is that MRES will provide its opinion on the proposed
agreement, WAPA will be notified and final contracts will be provided
and the City Council will need to take action. Discussion followed on
the proposed contract.

to use funding during 2016 budget year, and public input on
continuation of the wholesale license fee
John Prescott, City Manager, reported that, during the development of
the ordinance to implement a 5% markup on the wholesale cost of malt
beverages, staff included an annual update to the community in the
proposal. John stated that license holders were provided notice that
this item was included on tonight’s agenda. John stated that the

beverages became effective on July 1, 2015. John reported that, at this

the collection in the revised 2015 budget and proposed 2016 budget were
8
placed in the Prentis Park Debt Service fund to repay the general
obligation bond which will be issued for park improvements. John stated
that the City Council should receive public input on the continuation
of the wholesale license fee. Mayor Powell asked for public input on
the malt beverage markup.
Joshua Suing, Manager of Hy-Vee, asked the question if the 5% malt
beverage mark up is to be included as part of the cost of the product
noting that he has asked this question each time he came before the
City Council.
John Prescott, City Manager, reported that in contacting the Department
of Revenue an oral report was received from the Deputy Director that
the markup should be included as part of the merchandise cost. John
stated that a written statement was requested from the Department of
Revenue but has not been received. John stated that the oral report
information on the markup has been provided in notices to the licensee.
Joshua Suing, Manager of Hy-Vee, stated that some businesses are
selling beer below the cost plus the markup and wanted to know why the
City was not enforcing the state law. Jim McCulloch, City Attorney,
noted that there is a state statute that prohibits the sale of
alcoholic beverages below cost and encouraged reporting of this
practice to the Department of Revenue. Joshua stated that he was
concerned about the unfair retail practices which may cause customers
to leave town to make purchases.
Discussion followed on the markup.
