Clark County Board Meeting | September 19, 2025

Article Summary:
The Clark County Board voted to amend its liquor ordinance, allowing Tingley’s Lakeside Oasis to begin selling alcohol at 8 a.m. on Sundays. The measure passed despite two board members voting against the change.

Liquor License Amendment Key Points:

  • New Sale Time: Sunday alcohol sales can now begin at 8:00 a.m. under the amended ordinance.

  • Requesting Business: The change was requested by Evan Tingley, owner of Tingley’s Lakeside Oasis.

  • Board Vote: The motion passed with a majority “aye” vote, though members Jim Bolin and Mike Parsons voted “nay.”

The Clark County Board on Friday, September 19, 2025, approved a request to allow earlier alcohol sales on Sundays. The amendment to the county’s liquor ordinance was prompted by a request from Evan Tingley, the owner of Tingley’s Lakeside Oasis.

During the old business portion of the meeting, Tingley addressed the board and asked for the ordinance to be changed to permit Sunday sales to start at 8:00 a.m. After a period of discussion among board members, the proposed amendment was put to a vote.

Board member Randy Stephens made a motion, seconded by Todd Kuhn, to approve the amendment. The motion carried with a majority of members voting in favor. Board members Jim Bolin and Mike Parsons were the two dissenting votes. With the passage of the motion, the new hours for Sunday liquor sales are officially in effect.
