TITLE:

Consideration and Action on Liquor License Application:  Jeffrey Miller, "Whisk & Whisky", 501 E. Piccadilly Dr., Bldg. 101, Ste. 70, Series 12 (restaurant), New License.

STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Hold the Public Hearing; absent any valid concerns received from the public hearing, staff recommends the Council forward a recommendation for approval to the State.

Executive Summary:

The liquor license process begins at the State level and applications are then forwarded to the respective municipality for posting of the property and holding a public hearing, after which the Council recommendation is forwarded back to the State. A Series 12 license allows the holder of a restaurant license to sell and serve spirituous liquor solely for consumption on the premises of an establishment which derives at least forty percent (40%) of its gross revenue from the sale of food. Whisk & Whisky is a new restaurant in Flagstaff; if approved, it will be the 94th active series 12 license in Flagstaff. Series 12 liquor licenses are a non-quota license.

The property has been posted as required, and the Police and Community Development divisions have reviewed the application with no concerns noted.

Financial Impact:

There is no budgetary impact to the City of Flagstaff as this is a recommendation to the State.

Policy Impact:

Not applicable.
 

Connection to Council Goal, Regional Plan and/or TeamFlagstaff Strategic Plan:

Liquor licenses are a regulatory action and there is no Council goal that applies.

Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This:

The deadline for issuing a recommendation on this application is August 22, 2017.

Community Involvement:

This business will contribute to the tax base of the community.

Expanded Options and Alternatives:

The application was properly posted on July 21, 2017. No written protests have been received to date.
