Consideration and Action on Liquor License Application:  Jamie Thousand, "Roux 66", 2620 N. Steves Blvd., Series 12 (restaurant), New License.

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. 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 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 May 10, 2016.

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

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