SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting a recommendation of approval for a New Series 12 (Restaurant) liquor license.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
RECOMMENDATION
Recommend approval of Application No. 286706 to the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control (DLLC). Agent Andrea Dahlman Lewkowitz has submitted this application for a New Series 12 liquor license for Macayo's Mexican Food located at 1474 N Litchfield Road, Goodyear, Arizona 85338. (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. Lewkowitz on behalf of Macayo's Mexican Food. The establishment is presently operating 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 29th, 2024, and the Public Hearing notice was posted 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 for approval to the Police Department and the Development Services Department (Code Compliance and Planning & Zoning).
STAFF ANALYSIS
A Series 12 license is for a restaurant and is non-transferrable. This on-sale retail privileges liquor license allows the holder to sell and serve all types of 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.
DLLC requires 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 registered premises manager has taken the Title 4 Basic & Management training.
In addition to completing the required training, the manager will be on site during all business hours. Employees will either complete the Title 4 liquor training or attend in-house liquor training by a manager who has completed Title 4 Basic and Management training.
The restaurant's training procedures and company policy call for monitoring guest alcohol consumption throughout the premises and requiring a valid ID for anyone who appears to be under the legal drinking age.
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.
