Re: Alcohol Purchase for Dublin Irish Festival
The Administration is recommending that the competitive bic'.ding requirements be waived for the
purchase of alcohol for the 2000 Dublin Irish Festival. This year, as in years past, the alcohol sponsor
for the Dublin Irish Festival is Killian's Irish Red. In exchaxige for the sponsorship dollars and
advertising support provided by Killian's, the Festival serves only products offered by Coors, the
parent company of Killian's Irish Red. Under the policies of the State Division of Liquor Control,
the Central Beverage Group is the sole distributor of Coors and Killian's in Central Ohio. Therefore,
we are requesting that the bidding requirements be waived to designate Central Beverage Group as
the sole provider. The cost of alcohol for the Festival is estimated at $24,000.
We believe that the financial and marketing support provided by Killian's is a compelling factor in a
determination that waiving the bidding requirements would be in the best interest of the City.
