Purpose and Recommended Action
Recommendation
This is a request for City Council to recommend approval to the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control of a special event liquor license for the Lump Busters, submitted by Terri Dee Gall. The event will be held at the University of Phoenix Stadium’s Great Lawn located at 1 North Cardinals Drive on Thursday, April 27, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday and Saturday, April 28 and 29, 2017 from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. The purpose of this special event liquor license is for fundraising at the Cardinals Draft Weekend.
body
The University of Phoenix Stadium is controlled by the Arizona Sports and Tourism Authority (AZSTA), a corporate and political body of the State of Arizona. The area is zoned PAD (Planned Area Development) and located in the Yucca District. A.R.S. § 4-203.02 allows for an unlimited number of special event liquor licenses to be issued at locations controlled by the state, therefore, the allowed 12 events per calendar year does not apply to this special event liquor license application. Under the provisions of A.R.S. § 4-203.02, the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control may issue a special event liquor license only if the Council recommends approval of such license.
The City of Glendale Development Services, Police, and Fire Departments have reviewed the application and determined that it meets all technical requirements.
