LINCOLN, Neb. — The Lincoln City Council is set to take action Monday on two significant residential development annexations and multiple liquor license applications, according to an [agenda](https://lnklan.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=2&clip_id=417) for the 3 p.m. meeting.

The council will vote on conditional annexation agreements for West View Ridge and Redtail Heights, two residential projects on the city's outskirts.

The council will also hold a public hearing on the second reading of two zoning change ordinances affecting the Corner Stores Local Landmark Thematic District and a property near S. 36th Street and Prescott Avenue. Additionally, the council will consider a zoning change application from NeighborWorks Lincoln for property in that area.

During the liquor resolutions section, the council will vote on multiple license applications, including a Class I license for Corn Coast Brewing at 1433 Dahlberg Drive and a special designated license for Zoo Bar to cover an outdoor area of approximately 516 feet by 195 feet during Zoofest on July 10, 2026. A Class C license for The Mill Coffee & Tea is scheduled for a hearing on June 29.

The council will not meet on June 22 due to the Juneteenth holiday, and no meeting is scheduled for July 6 due to Independence Day observance. The meeting is open to the public and can be viewed via [the city's government channels.](https://www.lincoln.ne.gov/City/Departments/Planning-Department/Development-Review/Annexations)
