Upgrade to the Rockway liquor license

As most people Rockway has gaming machines on the premises. These gaming machines bring revenue into Rockway and to the village. We receive about $30,000 per year from these machines. There is certain criteria that has to be met in order for Rockway to have these machines on the premises. The one they have been using for many years is that they are a truck stop. To be considered as a truck stop they are required to sell at least 10,000 gallons diesel fuel a month. They have not been able to reach that quota. One of the other ways is to have a full liquor license which entails packaged goods and a pour license. Communities all around us have adopted the same process for keeping gaming in their communities. The BP in Hinckley and two of the gas stations in Sugar Grove both have the same licenses but do not pour on the premises. The village trustee needs are always looking to create revenue streams that do not cost the taxpayers any money. We are proud of the fact that we are a non-taxing government body and still provide all the services and maintain all the roads in the community. This license will be issued on a six-month trial basis, for the first year, if it is approved.
