Thank you, Alex Alex Zupancic Last Call Tavern Group Owner/Chief Executive Officer Page 5 of 6 Doc ID: 25fa3c62255ab0bcb749f9b4fbea57e76816bd69 Dear Nick, Please excuse that I am making this request by email, rather than by a letter, but I am away from my computer and this is the only way I can submit the request this afternoon. On behalf of Canal Shores I am requesting that the City of Evanston issue to The Butcher’s Tap an extended hours liquor license for use during tailgating at the Ohio State Vs. Northwestern football game on November 5 on Canal Shores. Because we are uncertain as to what time the game will start that day, we request that the liquor license allow the serving and selling of alcohol beginning at 8 AM in the event that the game starts at 11 AM. Thank you for your prompt consideration of this request. Please let me know if you have any questions or need anything further from Canal Shores. Thanks, Matt Rooney Vice President Canal Shores Page 6 of 6 Doc ID: 25fa3c62255ab0bcb749f9b4fbea57e76816bd69
