The city clerk of the city of Gunnison is hereby specifically delegated the authority to review and approve the following types of procedures pursuant to the Colorado Liquor Code and Colorado Beer Code:

Upon receipt of an application for any of the foregoing procedures by the city clerk, the city clerk may request from the police department and/or any other city department that may have information concerning the information, a report concerning the matter applied for in the application.

If upon review of the application the city clerk determines that the application is complete and that there is no matter raised by the application or any report obtained in connection therewith that should be referred to the city council for decision, the city clerk may administratively approve the application. Whenever, in the sole determination of the city clerk, an application should be referred to the city council for decision, she shall make such referral, in which case the decision shall be made by the city council. (Ord. 15-2006 § 2; Ord. 3-1999 § 1).

D. If the applicant demonstrates that it is able to conduct the tastings without violating the provisions of this section or Section 44-3-301(10), C.R.S., the city clerk shall issue such license.
E. An alcoholic beverage tastings license shall be valid for one year and shall run concurrently with the retail liquor store or liquor-licensed drugstore license of the holder of the alcohol beverage tastings license; provided, however, that the first alcoholic beverage tastings license issued to a retail liquor store or liquor-licensed drugstore licensee shall be valid only until the expiration of the then-current retail liquor store or liquor-licensed drugstore license.
F. Tastings conducted by the holder of an alcoholic beverage tastings license shall be subject to all the limitations and requirements set forth in Section 44-3-301(10), C.R.S., as amended from time to time, and in addition thereto shall be subject to the following limitations:
