Residents in Sarnia, Ontario, have until April 17, 2026, to share their thoughts on a proposal to add an outdoor patio to a local indoor golf facility. Offszn, located at 781 Roper St., has applied to the provincial regulator to expand its liquor service beyond its current indoor simulators.

The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario is currently reviewing the request to add a licensed outdoor space to the existing business. The facility already serves drinks like domestic beer and cocktails to customers using the indoor golf simulators, and this change would allow for service in a new outdoor area.

People who want to formally object to the expansion must submit their concerns through the iAGCO online portal before the April deadline. The commission requires all submissions to include the name of the person objecting, as anonymous feedback will not be formally considered during the review process.

If valid objections are filed, the commission might hold a public meeting to discuss how the patio could affect the neighborhood. If a resolution is not reached, the application could be reviewed further by the Licence Appeal Tribunal.

The facility is located in a commercial area near other local businesses like Fastenal and Beralta Construction. The golf center is owned by André Ouellette, who also runs a similar business location in Sudbury.
