On June 17, 2025, the Metropolitan Council of Nashville and Davidson County adopted Resolution RS2025-1294, approving an exemption for Emiliano's Steakhouse, located at 5356 Hickory Hollow Parkway, from the minimum distance requirements for obtaining a beer permit. Metropolitan Code Section 7.08.090.E provides a mechanism for restaurants to be exempt from these requirements through a Council resolution. The exemption was necessary because the steakhouse is situated within 100 feet of a pre-school, which is typically a protected establishment under the code. A public hearing was held on the same date as the Council meeting. This approval allows Emiliano's Steakhouse to secure a beer permit despite its proximity to the pre-school.
