BACKGROUND AND PREVIOUS ACTIONS
A new Series 7 liquor license application was submitted by Mr. Vozar on behalf of Bacchus Wine Bar which is set to open late June / early July 2024.
The City Clerk's office received the application from the DLLC on March 13, 2024, and the
Public Hearing notice was posted on April 1st, 2024 to comply with Arizona Revised
Statutes §4-201(b). No petitions or protests from qualified persons were received during the
comment period.
The application was routed to the Police Department and the Development Services
Department (Code Compliance and Planning & Zoning), and the departments had no comments.
STAFF ANALYSIS
A Series 7 is a "quota" license available only through the Liquor License Lottery or for purchase on the open market. Once issued, this liquor license is transferable from person to person and/or location to location within the same county and allows the holder both on- & off-sale retail privileges. This license allows a beer and wine bar retailer to sell and serve beer and wine (no other spirituous liquors), primarily by individual portions, to be consumed on the premises and in the original container for consumption on or off the premises. A retailer with off-sale ("To Go") privileges may deliver spirituous liquor off of the licensed premises in connection with a retail sale. A.R.S. 4-206.01.F. The off-sale privileges associated with a bar license shall be limited to no more than 30% of the total annual sales receipts of liquor by the licensee at that location. Off-sale ("To Go") package sales can be made on the bar premises as long as the area of off-sale operation does not utilize a separate entrance and exit from the one provided for the bar. Payment must be made no later than the time of delivery.
DLLC requires license owners, agents, and managers actively involved in the day-to-day
operations of the business complete a state-approved management training course prior to
the issuance of a liquor license. The owners have taken the Title 4 Basic & Management
training. In addition to completing the required training, a manager will be on site during all
business hours. The bar's training procedures require a valid ID for anyone who appears to be under age 35.
There are no licensed childcare facilities or K-12 schools within 300 feet of the location to
comply with Arizona Revised Statutes §4-207. City Council's recommendation of "Approval",
"Disapproval" or "No Recommendation" will be forwarded to the DLLC for consideration during
their licensing review process.
