For those licenses that need Town Council approval; the Council meets the second and fourth Tuesday of every month. At the very latest, the Clerk's Office needs the completed application, any supporting documents and fee by noon on the previous Tuesday before the meeting. If a public hearing is needed, then we need all documentation at least 2 to 3 weeks before the Council meeting to allow ample time for a Legal Notice to be placed in the newspaper. If advertising is required, the applicant is required to pay the advertising cost.
