Update on Efforts to Support and Open an Ogden Valley Type-3 Liquor Package Agency!
First of all, a big thank you to those who have contacted 8th District, State Representative, Mr. Gage Froerer and Mr. John Freeman, Deputy Director, Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (UDABC). To-date, the two gentlemen have received over fifty emails and phone calls regarding opening a Type-3 Package Agency for Ogden Valley. Of the emails and calls, roughly 6% have been against the effort and an overwhelming 94% have been in-favor of opening the agency.
Due to your support and Wolf Creek Resort’s recent, drastic cut-back in available funds for their Type-2 Agency, the UDABC plans to file a special request with Governor Huntsman’s office for special funding from the State Legislature to accept, consider, approve and fund The Eden Liquor Agency.
This is, though, by no means a slam-dunk! In order for the legislature to hear the special request, it will have to be submitted for approval during a special session of the legislature. Currently, there is no special session of the legislature planned, but, the governor’s office is considering calling a special session possibly soon. Please continue your support by placing a follow-up contact to State Representative Gage Froerer gfroerer@utah.gov or 801-391-4233 voicing encouragement for the UDABC’s special funding request and support for a special session of the legislature to approve the special funding.
Thank you for your continued support!
Bill Lyman, Managing Member, Ogden Valley Liquor Group, L.L.C. dba: The Eden Liquor Agency
