Nanaimo s liquor-primary operations getting a reduction in business licence fees for one year

Nanaimo council voted this week to reduce 2021 business licence fees for liquor-primary establishments to $165, the standard rate for most businesses, from $1,100. Along with similar businesses, Pederson has cut seating drastically. The pub now accommodates 75 customers, down from 150 pre-pandemic. Pederson understands the logic behind the safety measures, but they have affected profitability. The Landlubber has reduced staff by one worker and is taking part in the Canada wage subsidy program aimed at assisting businesses during the pandemic. Reducing the licence fee levels the playing field, because food-primary restaurants with built-in sports bars pay the standard $165, he said. Coun. Sheryl Armstrong said her motion to reduce business licence fees is temporary until COVID-19 is under control. She won unanimous support for the proposal at this week’s council meeting.

Nanaimo councillor wants to reduce cost of liquor licences

  NANAIMO Nanaimo Coun. Sheryl Armstrong will be presenting a motion to council to reduce the cost of 2021 liquor primary licences from $1,100 to $165 per year. The move would give some financial relief to pubs and nightclubs in the harbour city, which have seen a dramatic decline since the pandemic. Armstrong says businesses affected are operating at reduced hours and capacity. “They are not being used as what their purpose before was and a lot of them have gone to just food primary,” adds Armstrong. The liquor primary licence was introduced to offset the cost of policing as part of the city’s Bar Watch program.
