A. 1 TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL FROM: Jocelyn C. Bronson, Town Clerk SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2005-15: Relating to liquor licenses; approving a recommendation to the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses & Control for a No. 12 (Restaurant) liquor license submitted by Texas Roadhouse Holdings, LLC, located at 8450 N. Cracker Barrel Road. DISCUSSION Ronald Paul Bigelow, on behalf of Texas Roadhouse Holdings, LLC, is applying for a No. 12 (Restaurant) liquor license for premises located at 8450 N. Cracker Barrel Road. The business is in compliance, and the Marana Police Department, showing no record on file, has completed a background check. In accordance with the State of Arizona Guide to Arizona Liquor Laws, the Clerk's office has received two copies of an application for a spirituous liquor license from the State Department of Liquor Licenses & Control Department. One copy of the application has been posted on the front of the proposed licensed premises for 20 days prior to this meeting. The Council, as the appropriate governing board, must hold a meeting and either approve, disapprove or offer a"no-recommendation" decision on the application. This action must take place within 60 days of the filing of the application. During the time the governing body is processing the application, the Department will conduct a background check of the applicant. If the application is approved at the appropriate government level, and no written protests have been received by the Department, and if there is no objection by the Director, the application will be approved. This process normally takes 90 days after the filing of the application. If the governing body disapproves the application or offers the application or offers a"no- recommendation" decision, or if the protests have been filed with the Department, the application must be set for a hearing before the State Liquor Board. The hearing may be conducted by the board or by a designated hearing officer. The purpose of a hearing is to consider all evidence and testimony in favor of or opposed to the granting of a license. The applicant for a new license bears the burden of demonstrating his or her "capability, qualifications and reliability" and that the granting of a license is in "the best interest of the community" except that, in a person-to-person transfer, an applicant need only prove his or her "capability, qualifications and reliability". An applicant in a location-to-location transfer need only prove that the granting of the license is in the "best interest of the community". BLUTexas Roadhouse Liquor.doc The decision by the board to grant or deny an application will normally take place within 105 days after the application has been filed, unless the director deems it necessary to extend the time period. A.R.S. § 4-201, 4-201.01, 4-203; Rule R-4-15-102. RECOMMENDATION The applicant has met the posting requirements for a No. 12 (Restaurant) liquor license for premises located at 8450 N. Cracker Barrel Road to the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses & Control and has met the posting requirements. The Town Clerk has received no comments in favor or against the application. Staff recommends consideration of approval of this liquor license. SUGGESTED MOTION I move to approve Resolution No. 2005-15.

A. 2 TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL FROM: James R. DeGrood, P.E. Executive Asst. to Town Manager SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2005-14: Relating to Transportation; approving and authorizing the Mayor to execute an Intergovernmental Agreement between the Town of Marana and Pima County for the sharing of costs involved in the provision of public transit services to certain areas of Pima County and the Town of Marana. DISCUSSION Continued provision of transit services to citizens of the Town of Marana by Pima County requires the annual renewal of the Intergovernmental Agreement between the governmental agencies, with adjustments in the cost of service. At present, two services are provided within the Town. The first is the Pima County Rural Transit Service, which operates through the northern portion of Marana and Avra Valley, terminating at the Orange Grove and Thornydale intersection. This service has been in place for a number of years, making four daily runs. The frequency of service, extent of route, and pickup points within the Town of Marana will remain unchanged. Pima Count has recently changed contractors for this service, with Trax Transportation as the new provider. Trax is operating a 2004 model van for the Marana Rural Transit Service. This service is slightly less expensive than the prior service provider. The second service provided is the Route 16 (Ina Road) service which is currently operated by SunTran. This service makes 27 trips per weekday and 14 trips on Saturdays using a conventional transit bus service, making stops in the business area at Ina and Thornydale Roads. Pima County proposes to assess a proportionate cost for these services based upon their existing contracts with their transit providers SunTran and Trax Transportation. The cost of the service for 2004-2005 will be $67, 954.83, up from $67,400.07 for fiscal year 2003-2004. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of Resolution No. 2005-14.

Gladden Forest LLC is requesting final plat approval for the resubdivision of Blocks 13, 14 and 15 of the Gladden Farms Block Plat. The site is located south of the proposed Tangerine Farms Road extension and north of the future regional park, within a portion of Sections 33 & 34, Township 11 South, Range 11 East. The requested changes to the Final Block Plat are required by the First Amendment to the Gladden Farms Development Agreement adopted by the Town Council by Resolution 2004-24 February 17, 2004. The resubdivision will dedicate a new 60' right-of-way for "Heritage Park Road", extending from the intersection of Tangerine Road and Gladden Farms Drive southward, for access to the Heritage Park as required by the Town. This resubdivision will also abandon the dedicated roadway between Blocks 14 and 15 in exchange for the above mentioned dedication. The new road alignment will add an additional 1.28 acres of VC (Village Commercial) zoned land to Block 13. Currently the developer is processing a rezoning of Block 13 that will change that VC zoned land and the remainder of the Block 13, zoned R-16, to R-8 (Residential, 8,000 square feet minimum lot size).

Berlin, Planning Director SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2005-11: Relating to Subdivisions; approving a Preliminary Plat for Saguaro Ranch T-Bench Bar. DISCUSSION The Marana Planning Commission held a public hearing on this application at its regular meeting of September 15, 2004, and voted 5-0 recommending approval to the Mayor and Council. Saguaro Ranch Development Corporation is requesting preliminary plat approval of an 8-lot single family subdivision on approximately 35.6 acres within the Saguaro Ranch gated custom home community that was annexed into the Town in August 2003. The site is located approximately one-quarter mile north of the Moore Road east of Thornydale Road, within a portion of Section 29, Township 11 South, Range 13 East. The T-Bench Bar subdivision will consist of lots 1-8, Parcel "A" and Common Area "A" &"B". The zoning for the subdivision is R-144 (Single Family Residential with a minimum lot size of 144,000 square feet). T-Bench Bar is located south of the tunnel, and not within the main gated community, but will have a separate gated access. The T-Bench Bar portion of Saguaro Ranch was not an original part of the larger Saguaro Ranch Subdivision platted in September 2003. This 35 acres was already a part of the Town prior to the 2003 annexation; but was identified within the Pre-Annexation Development Agreement. Therefore this project is subject to all of the covenants of the recorded Pre-Annexation Development Agreement and any subsequent amendments. The maximum allowable disturbance for the entire Saguaro Ranch Project is 20%. The areas of disturbance for each buildable lot will be defined at the time a building permit is issued; this area shall not exceed 27,000 square feet per lot under any circumstance. A proposed Undisturbed Area Covenant shall be submitted with each building permit application, which stipulates the future preservation of the undisturbed acreage. The final document will be recorded prior to Certificate of Occupancy on the house. Tracking of total site disturbance will be performed by the Town using the metes and bounds surveys submitted with building permit applications in combination with periodic surveillance of the site using aerial photography and geographic information systems.
