A special election will be held Tuesday, July 6, to determine whether the Cardinal Club in Simpsonville will be allowed to serve alcohol.

The facility already has a liquor license for its restaurant. Tuesday’s vote will be to allow the sale of alcohol by the drink at Cardinal Club Golf Course.

Shelby County Clerk Sue Carol Perry said the election is only for Simpsonville residents who are in precinct F104.
