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 06 license allows a bar retailer to sell and serve spirituous liquors, primarily by individual portions, to be consumed on the premises and in the original container for consumption on or off the premises

Series 06 (bar- all spirituous liquor) licenses are obtained through the person and/or location transfer of an existing license from another business. The transfer is from James Mansene of Mad I which was located in Flagstaff. The liquor license was recently sold and must be transferred to the new owner and location.

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

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

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

Not applicable.

1) Table the item if additional information or time is needed.
2) Make no recommendation.
3) Forward the application to the State with a recommendation for approval.
4) Forward the application to the State with a recommendation for denial, stating the reasons for such recommendation.

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

The deadline for issuing a recommendation on this application is May 5, 2016.

This business will contribute to the tax base of the community. We are not aware of any other relevant considerations.

The application was properly posted on April 4, 2016. No written protests have been received to date.
