I have the capability, reliability and qualifications to hold a liquor license because:
“I have owned a liquor license in California and I have already attended Arizona Basic & Management liquor law classes to prohibit sale to underage and identify obviously intoxicated customers. I have not had any liquor law violations previously and will uphold Arizona liquor laws and city ordinances as well. I am looking forward to operating a restaurant in Phoenix and look forward to building relationships with my customers.
The public convenience requires and the best interest of the community will be substantially served by the issuance of the liquor license because:
"This location has had previous restaurants to include Streets of New York and recently ATL Wings. The owner that leased this space after ATL wings did not apply for a liquor license however, he operated the business as a restaurant. Therefore, the location as a restaurant is a convience to the local neighborhood and I want to continue to serve the community.”
