The Greeley City Liquor License Authority convened on September 4, 2025, to discuss a new liquor license application for the Union Colony Civic Center (UCCC). The meeting focused on the procedural aspects of the application and the community's response to it.

The session began with inquiries about the public notification process regarding the liquor license hearing. The facility manager confirmed that a sign was posted on August 19, 2025, at the main entrance and on an outward-facing magnet board. However, he reported receiving no feedback from the public following the posting.

The manager also indicated that letters of support for the application were submitted to the clerk's office. These letters came from various local entities, including the culture park and recreation director, the chair of the Union Colony Civic Center advisory board, the Doubletree hotel, the Downtown Development Association, and another downtown venue called Moxie. Notably, none of the letters expressed concerns regarding the liquor license.

Additionally, the manager presented a table detailing alcohol sales associated with the UCCC, which highlighted the revenue generated for the Backstage Stars nonprofit organization and the vendor Crockspot. He explained that this data was included to demonstrate the community's engagement with the bar and concession services, as well as the potential revenue benefits for both the city and the UCCC. Under the proposed arrangement, the city would retain 100% of the net revenues from alcohol sales, contrasting with the previous commission structure.

The meeting concluded without further questions from the authority members, indicating a smooth progression towards the approval of the liquor license application. The next steps will likely involve finalizing the application process based on the supportive feedback received.
