The State Department of Liquor Licenses & Control has completed a background investigation and has forwarded two copies of an application for a spirituous liquor license in accordance with the State of Arizona Guide to Arizona Liquor Laws. 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. If the application is approved at the appropriate government level, and no written protests have been received by the Town, 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 a "no-recommendation" decision, or if protests have been filed, 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".
