8.A.
City Council Meeting - FINAL (2)
Meeting Date:
12/20/2016
From:
Stacy Saltzburg, Deputy City Clerk

TITLE:

Consideration and Action on Liquor License Application:  Danny Thomas, "La Vetta", 103 N. Leroux St., Series 12 (restaurant), New License.

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. La Vetta is a new restaurant in Flagstaff. The property has been posted as required, and the Police, Community Development and Sales Tax 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 and/or Regional 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 January 13, 2017.

Community Involvement:

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

Expanded Options and Alternatives:

The application was properly posted on November 30, 2016. No written protests have been received to date.
