Council approves public entertainment license for West Palace (Fat Patties) at 2865 South 100 Eighth Street
The West Allis Common Council approved a public entertainment premise license for West Palace (identified in the transcript as Fat Patties) at 2865 South 100 and Eighth Street after a short discussion about the scope of allowed activities.

Applicant Matt Bates told the council the venue intends to host live entertainment — karaoke, music bingo, trivia and bands — and asked how frequently events could be held. A council member said the entertainment license covers such activities and that the license also covers use of the venue's two-box sound system.

Council members clarified that patrons could not take alcoholic drinks outside the licensed premises and could not bring their own alcohol. The council discussed whether occasional outdoor events such as a car show would require separate approval; staff said small one-time events falling within licensing parameters could be approved on the consent agenda, while events that fall outside the standard parameters would have to come before the council.

Alderman Golding moved approval and Alderman Novak seconded. The motion carried by voice vote; the transcript records, "All in favor, say aye. Aye. The ayes have it." The transcript does not include a roll‑call tally.

The record indicates the license permits indoor entertainment within legal operating hours; the council did not record any special operating-hour exceptions at the meeting.
