Cormican and Susan Kay Cormican for on-sale liquor at Mr. Pizza Restaurant, 1820 N. Rice St. Initially, the Maplewood City Council was concerned that there might be problems in controlling sales since the restaurant was originally a fast food service and that besides sit-in ser- vice, there is still take-out service. Also, there is an approved amusement park and a large beach in the immediate area that many young people use. Lawyer Pat McCullough spoke in behalf of the Cormicans, reminding the council that the Cormicans already had a license for 3.2 beer,and that the police chief had not found any problems with that. Gary Cormican claimed that he couldn't see any real problems with the beach since there are separate facilities for adults and children in his restaurant. He indicated that he planned to conduct take-out service from a window in the kitchen,and that he would also change the signs in front of the restaurant. After Mayor Greavu warned, "We'll come down on you if there are any violations," Councilman Nelson moved that with the changes that the applicant planned to make, the license be issued. A liquor license was also granted to John J. Gormley and Ruth A. Gormley, whose restaurant is located at Stillwater and Century.
