Information

TITLE:

Consideration and Action on Liquor License Application: David Ledbetter, Jr. "NiMarco's Pizza", 13715 N. Kaspar Drive, Series 12 (restaurant), New License.

STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Open the public hearing.
Receive citizen input.
Close the public hearing.

The City Council has the option to:
(1) Forward the application to the State with a recommendation for approval;
(2) Forward the application to the State with a recommendation for denial based on information from staff, the testimony received at the public hearing and/or other factors.

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.  Nimarco's Pizza is an existing business in Flagstaff that is adding a new location with a new series 12 restaurant license. If approved it will be the 101st active series 12 license in Flagstaff. Series 12 licenses are non-quota licenses.

The property has been posted as required, and the Police and Community Development divisions have reviewed the application and provided their respective reports.
 

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 Team Flagstaff Strategic Plan:

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

Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This:

Not applicable.

Key Considerations:

Because the application is for a new license, consideration may be given to both the location and the applicant's personal qualifications.

The deadline for issuing a recommendation on this application is March 20, 2019.

Community Involvement:

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

Expanded Options and Alternatives:

The application was properly posted on February 25, 2019. No written protests have been received to date.
