Mr. Weakly moved to approve the minutes as amended of the regular meeting of the Lakewood Liquor and Fermented Malt Beverage Authority held on May 23, 2002. The motion was seconded, and with those present voting Aye, THE MOTION TO APPROVE THE MINUTES CARRIED.
ITEM 4. NEW APPLICATION
Hotel & Restaurant with Optional Premises
Den at Fox Hollow, Inc., dba The Homestead Grill
11500 W. Hampden Ave.
Deputy City Attorney Paul Kennebeck stated that his office had reviewed the file and all the paperwork appears to be in order. This application is slightly different because of the Optional Premises.
Attorney Kennebeck explained that the restaurant is considered the interior premises and the golf course, the optional premises. This type of licensing allows for alcohol service on the golf course. The applicant must demonstrate that the neighborhood both needs and desires this type of outlet, a hotel & restaurant with optional premises, to be granted a liquor license.
Chairman Taake asked if fencing around the course was a requirement in this area.
Attorney Kennebeck informed Mr. Taake that fencing was not an issue.
Chairman Taake asked the Secretary to read the inventory of liquor-licensed establishments within the neighborhood boundaries into the record.
Ms. Bock said an inventory of the liquor-licensed establishments within the neighborhood had been completed. There are no liquor-licensed establishments located within the boundaries.
Kristine Olson, 450 Emerson, Denver, CO 80218, President of the Den at Fox Hollow, Inc., appeared before the Authority and was sworn in. She testified that she went out into the neighborhood on four different occasions to talk with the residents and gather petitions. She asked the residents if they felt they needed a hotel & restaurant at the golf course. Some residents told her they didn't drink and they didn't want the restaurant there. Many residents were in favor of the license and signed her petitions.
Stacee Gibson, 3669 S. Kipling Ct., Lakewood, CO 80235, appeared before the Authority and was sworn in. She testified that she consumes alcohol on occasion and feels there is a need for this type of license at this facility.
Melissa Panfill, 8448 W. Union Ave., #29, Littleton, CO 80123, appeared before the Authority and was sworn in. She testified that she consumes alcohol occasionally and feels there is a need for this type of license at this facility.
No one appeared before the Authority to oppose the issuance of the liquor license.
Mr. Weakly moved to approve the Hotel & Restaurant with Optional Premises License application of Den at Fox Hollow, Inc., dba The Homestead Grill, 11500 W. Hampden Ave. The motion was seconded, and with present voting Aye, THE MOTION TO APPROVE THE APPLICATION CARRIED.
