TITLE:
Consideration and Action on Liquor License Application: Andrea Dahlman Lewkowitz, "Home 2 Suites/Tru Flagstaff" 3451 Lake Mary Rd, Series 07 (Beer and Wine Bar), New Application
STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION:
- Forward the application to the State with a recommendation for approval;
- Forward the application to the State with a recommendation for denial based on 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 07 beer and wine bar license allows a beer and wine bar retailer to sell and serve beer and wine, primarily by individual portions, to be consumed on the premises and in the original container for consumption on or off the premises. A Series 07 license is a "quota" license available only through the Liquor License Lottery or for purchase on the open market. Home 2 Suites/Tru Flagstaff is a new business in Flagstaff and they are requesting a new application. If approved, it will be one of 26 active series 07 licenses in Flagstaff. To view surrounding liquor licenses, please visit the Active Liquor Licenses Map.
Because the application is for a new license, consideration may be given to both the location and the applicant's personal qualifications. The property has been posted as required, and the Police and Community Development divisions have reviewed the application and provided their respective reports. No protests have been received to date.
