OTHER BUSINESS
a. License Agreement between Town of Avon and Ticino, LLC d/b/a Ticino
Discussion ensued about the above referenced license agreement between the Town of Avon
and Ticino, LLC which outlines an arrangement for the Town to lease its property to the
applicant to use as an outdoor deck area for the restaurant. Discussion focused on some of the
following topics:
• The amount of the restoration bond & how that is estimated and the possibility of waiving
the bond until after construction
• The fee for leasing the space and how that is estimated
• The construction timeline of Main Street
• Insurance requirements
After some discussion, it was agreed that the license agreement would cover one year without a
fee amount established until after the Main Street construction is completed. The Council
expressed overall support of this type of arrangement and noted that it would likely be typical for
some of the new businesses that would open and want to create the patios utilizing town
property.
