Applicant’s Statement
The applicant submitted the following statement in support of this application. Spelling, grammar and punctuation in the statement are shown exactly as written by the applicant on the City Questionnaire.
I have the capability, reliability and qualifications to hold a liquor license because:
“I have been in the liquor industry for over 32 years, as an owner and operator. My family and I own three restaurant and bars, one will be 27 years in August located in Old Town Scottsdale. Castaway's in Phoenix will be 10 years in July. Grubstake in Quartzite is 21 years. I've operated these establishments with No violations from State or City and with minimal calls for service from fire or police. All three places have and will continue to be family run. Acquisition and agent change for this license was mutually decided because of the ages of my parents who can no longer fulfill daily operations.”
