Commissioner Jason Majerus raised the possibility two weeks ago of prorating or reimbursing the fees for eight establishments that sell alcohol in the county’s jurisdiction.
Majerus said of the eight businesses, “They were hit a little bit harder than average and they’re not eligible for some different funds.”
The reimbursement or waiving of liquor license fees for 2020 and 2021 has been a common practice among local cities:
• Cannon Falls: 25 percent of fee reimbursed/waived in 2020, 50 percent in 2021
