(Darcie McCracken, City Clerk)
FISCAL IMPACT
The applicant paid the $635 application fee for the liquor license per the Goodyear Municipal User Fee Schedule. The business will also contribute to the tax base of the community.
BACKGROUND AND PREVIOUS ACTIONS
A new Series 12 liquor license application was submitted by Ms. Morse on behalf of Popo's Fiesta Del Sol. The establishment is scheduled to open in April 2024 under an interim permit that was issued by the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control (DLLC). A license applicant is granted an interim permit, which is a provisional authorization issued pursuant to A.R.S §4-203.01. This authorization permits the sale of spirituous liquor to continue while the application is pending. Existing licenses must be of the same series and location as the pending application, with a maximum validity period of 105 days, to qualify.
The City Clerk's office received the application from the DLLC on March 27, 2024, and the Public Hearing notice was posted on April 3rd, 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 12 liquor license is for a restaurant and is non-transferrable. This on-sale retail privileges liquor license allows the holder to sell all types of spirituous liquor solely for consumption on the premises of an establishment that derives at least forty percent (40%) of its gross revenue from the sale of food.
DLLC requires liquor license owners, agents, and managers actively involved in the day-to-day operations of the business to complete a state-approved management training course prior to the issuance of a liquor license. The two owners and managers have taken the Title 4 Basic & Management training.
Managers and staff will require a valid ID to purchase alcohol if the guest appears to be under the legal drinking age and watch to make sure of age customers do not provide to underage.
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.
