Public comments.

16
00:01:38,260 --> 00:01:43,220
Is there anyone in the audience who would like to make a public comment on something that

17
00:01:43,220 --> 00:01:44,860
is not on tonight's agenda?

18
00:01:49,060 --> 00:01:53,940
Seeing none, we will continue to the approval of minutes, the approval of minutes for

19
00:01:53,940 --> 00:01:58,680
for the agenda item for the approval of minutes, pardon me.

20
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,060
Is there a motion to approve the minutes

21
00:02:01,060 --> 00:02:02,840
from July 16th, 2026?

22
00:02:03,300 --> 00:02:05,480
I move to approve the minutes of the meeting

23
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,040

24
00:02:07,580 --> 00:02:07,920
Second.

25
00:02:08,980 --> 00:02:09,600
Is there a second?

26
00:02:09,920 --> 00:02:10,180
I second.

27
00:02:10,940 --> 00:02:11,360
Okay.

28
00:02:12,300 --> 00:02:14,520

Mr. Brian Wenneke?

34
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:21,520
Yes.

35
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:22,500
Ms. Tiffany Hall?

36
00:02:22,500 --> 00:02:23,280
Yes.

37
00:02:23,740 --> 00:02:24,460
Mr. Artie Coons.

38
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:24,900
Yeah.

39
00:02:25,380 --> 00:02:26,360
And I am a yes.

40
00:02:26,500 --> 00:02:29,100
And that is a unanimous approval there.

41
00:02:29,420 --> 00:02:35,300
We'll move to the first public hearing for this agenda item, new fermented malt beverage

00:03:07,420 --> 00:03:11,740
corporation to provide testimony about the location excellent may I have you

49
00:03:11,740 --> 00:03:12,780
swearing with our tongue.

50
00:03:27,780 --> 00:03:31,060
And so with me first this evening I'll bring up

51
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,080
Brittany and I'll have you say your name and spell your last name for the

52
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:43,020
council members. Yeah my name is Brittany Sikorsky, S-I-K-O-R-S-K-I. And Brittany what is your position with QuickTrip Corporation. So I'm a real estate project

53
00:03:43,020 --> 00:03:47,160
manager for QuickTrip. And can you tell us a little bit about QuickTrip? Yeah,

54
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,360
yeah absolutely. So we are a privately held company. We've been around since

55
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:55,000
1958. We are not a franchise. We have a little bit over 1,300 stores

56
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:00,240
across the US and then we just open our 29th here in Colorado. Perfect, and how

57
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,180
can we talk a little bit about the employee structure and how it works? I

58
00:04:04,180 --> 00:04:08,060
know there's a pretty good tenure of people at Quicktrip, so can you give

59
00:04:08,060 --> 00:04:12,280
some color to that? Yeah, a lot of us have been around for a long time like

60
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,880
myself. I started as a part-time clerk 13 years ago, worked my way up through

61
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,920
the ranks to store my manager and then just joined real estate about

62
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,860
three years ago. So we promote with them and people stick around for a

63
00:04:22,860 --> 00:04:27,720
time. Fantastic, and then can you talk a little bit, I know you said it's privately held,

64
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:36,040
no franchises, and when is this store slated to open? Christmas Eve actually. Oh. Yeah.

65
00:04:36,660 --> 00:04:43,080
Okay. I think that's it for you. Okay, unless the council members have anything, I do have

66
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,460
somebody that's going to testify and talk about sales service, training of employees,

67
00:04:46,820 --> 00:04:51,560
security, all of that. It's more of the background of the company. Yeah. So she'll be available

68
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,080
if you think of something later, but okay, awesome.

69
00:04:55,260 --> 00:04:55,660
Thanks everyone.

70
00:04:56,220 --> 00:04:57,140
Thank you.

71
00:04:58,340 --> 00:05:00,200
Lydia, can you say your name for the council

72
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:01,040
and spell your last name?

73
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,840
Yes, I'm Lydia Hernandez, H-E-R-N-A-N-D-E-Z.

74
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:06,680
And what's your position for corporation?

75
00:05:07,260 --> 00:05:08,940
My position is called store super price.

76
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,000
And what does that mean?

77
00:05:10,660 --> 00:05:13,480
Essentially, I manage the store managers of every store.

78
00:05:13,700 --> 00:05:15,880
Make sure that they're doing the right things

79
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:17,220
and everything's going good.

80
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,760
Can you tell us a little bit about how the structure

81
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:25,320
of the stores are with employees so management down at each location. Each

82
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,460
store has a store manager. There are a couple of assistant positions. One is

83
00:05:29,460 --> 00:05:34,160
called first assistant, second assistant, relief assistant, and night assistant. But

84
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:38,180
they all kind of work different varying schedules to make sure that there's one

85
00:05:38,180 --> 00:05:42,340
assistant on duty at all times. So there's always a manager on duty? Yes.

86
00:05:42,620 --> 00:05:47,140
And then who else is in the store typically? Other than the manager on duty

87
00:05:47,140 --> 00:05:49,360
there were just B clerks in the store.

88
00:05:49,660 --> 00:05:50,100
Fantastic.

89
00:05:50,300 --> 00:05:52,320
And can you talk a little bit about the training

90
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,620
of all of those employees across QTRIP?

91
00:05:54,780 --> 00:05:54,960
Yes.

92
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,360
So responsible retailing, sorry.

93
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,020
Training starts in orientation.

94
00:06:02,500 --> 00:06:03,320
It's about four hours.

95
00:06:03,500 --> 00:06:04,960
It's before they ever get into the store.

96
00:06:05,580 --> 00:06:07,600
We give them a brief overview of what's expected,

97
00:06:07,820 --> 00:06:09,480
how the POS works, and things like that.

98
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,900
From there, they spend, depending on their position,

99
00:06:12,900 --> 00:06:17,100
in a minimum of 46 hours up to three weeks worth of time

100
00:06:17,100 --> 00:06:20,200
with a dedicated trainer that's there

101
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,660
to obviously train them how to do the entire job

102
00:06:22,660 --> 00:06:25,300
but also focus on things like responsible retailing.

103
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,000
They'll teach them things that our POS does.

104
00:06:28,840 --> 00:06:31,400
It will scan an ID.

105
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,660
It kind of flags you when you ring up

106
00:06:33,660 --> 00:06:36,840
an alcoholic beverage or cigarettes or tobacco.

107
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,100
Flags you, you can scan someone's ID,

108
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:41,140
check the picture, and move on from there.

109
00:06:41,140 --> 00:06:46,700
you also have the option to punch in a date of birth but trainees have to pass

110
00:06:46,700 --> 00:06:51,460
all of the training requirements in order to go and actually work in the

111
00:06:51,460 --> 00:06:55,900
stores without a trainer by their side. And can you talk about your internal

112
00:06:55,900 --> 00:07:04,860
compliance program? Yes, we have internal compliance shops every quarter so

113
00:07:04,860 --> 00:07:10,160
we'll take someone that's 21 to 25 send them into all of our stores and

114
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,380
and make sure that our employees are complying with quick trips policy and the Colorado law,

115
00:07:14,820 --> 00:07:17,520
just IDing and carding people that look like they're under 50.

116
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,420
And what happens if there's a failure of that check?

117
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,840
It depends on how they fail.

118
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,560
Say they card someone but they don't type anything into our POS.

119
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,740
We would document a retrain because they essentially did card someone.

120
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,040
They just didn't follow the quick trip process.

121
00:07:34,340 --> 00:07:39,140
If for some reason they don't card that person at all and don't enter anything into the POS,

122
00:07:39,140 --> 00:07:41,720
there would be discipline documented after that.

123
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:49,760
Fantastic. And then can you talk about Quick Tricks position on how you handle an underage sale?

124
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:54,460
Yes. So obviously if they look like they're under 50 we would cart them.

125
00:07:55,480 --> 00:08:00,600
Preferably again we would scan the ID because it checks everything that we need besides the photo,

126
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,220
but it will check the expiration date and the date of birth.

127
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:09,480
The POS would flag if they were under the age to purchase the alcohol or tobacco.

128
00:08:09,940 --> 00:08:14,580
It would flag them and it would highlight, hey, this item is not okay for this person to purchase.

129
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,500
Essentially from there, we would ask for another form of ID.

130
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,780
If they don't have something else that would be compliant, we would deny the sale.

131
00:08:23,420 --> 00:08:27,840
And then similarly, can you talk about a potential sale to somebody that appears to be intoxicated?

132
00:08:28,180 --> 00:08:29,900
Yeah. So kind of the same thing.

133
00:08:30,580 --> 00:08:33,160
If they look like they're under 50, we would card them.

134
00:08:33,560 --> 00:08:39,840
If you start noticing those signs that they look like they're intoxicated, we train everyone

135
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:40,840
to deny the sale.

136
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,880
If it's a clerk at their register and they're not quite sure what to do, they're trained

137
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:50,020
to go and call an assistant manager so that that person can handle the individual that's

138
00:08:50,020 --> 00:08:50,780
under the influence.

139
00:08:51,220 --> 00:08:55,860
But we deny the sale, stand firm on the decision and just remove the product from the

140
00:08:55,860 --> 00:08:56,060
counter.

141
00:08:57,420 --> 00:08:59,720
And would you talk a little bit about your security?

142
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:06,720
Yes, so we have 24-hour security. It goes back to our home base in Tulsa.

143
00:09:07,340 --> 00:09:10,220
So we have these devices that our employees can wear.

144
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,500
It kind of looks like a fancy garage door opener, but they put it on their belt.

145
00:09:13,860 --> 00:09:16,520
They can push a couple of buttons if something crazy is going on.

146
00:09:17,020 --> 00:09:20,340
Tulsa gets a signal. They can log right into the DVR system,

147
00:09:20,500 --> 00:09:23,420
see what's going on, and then make the appropriate calls from there,

148
00:09:23,420 --> 00:09:31,120
whether that's fire police whatever so our employees are always I guess someone

149
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:35,800
else has the ability to watch them in case there's a security event so they

150
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:41,800
are very safe I guess is what I'm trying to get at I guess but the rest of the

151
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:46,900
security are beer doors moving forward everything will be automatic so there

152
00:09:46,900 --> 00:09:51,740
won't be anyone that has to manually go lock or unlock the beer doors right

153
00:09:51,740 --> 00:09:56,580
at midnight, they're locked, they're closed, and then at 8 a.m. they come right back on.

154
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,380
And that's true for this store that's coming online though.

155
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,220
Yes, we have some older ones that don't have that, but this one will.

156
00:10:03,900 --> 00:10:08,380
And so I take it that to mean that there's a camera system within the...

157
00:10:08,380 --> 00:10:08,800
Yes.

158
00:10:09,300 --> 00:10:09,680
Fantastic.

159
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,640
I think that's all I have for questions.

160
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,980
Is there anything that you all have that we've missed that you are interested in hearing?

161
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,900
Other than the survey results, which obviously liquor pros will figure out.

162
00:10:23,310 --> 00:10:30,930
the let me think how I want to say you're open 24 hours right but you said

163
00:10:30,930 --> 00:10:38,290
something about you have the security button that goes to Tulsa and they can

164
00:10:38,290 --> 00:10:44,250
pull up the cameras and look at what's going on and then you have to enter the

165
00:10:44,250 --> 00:10:50,330
date into your keyboard or do you scan the license? We have the option to do both

166
00:10:50,330 --> 00:10:57,210
but some people provide like a passport. The POS won't scan that barcode so we do

167
00:10:57,210 --> 00:11:00,870
have the ability to enter the date of birth manually. But normally you'll scan

168
00:11:00,870 --> 00:11:07,430
a driver's license? Yes. As long as it's scannable we prefer to do that. What are

169
00:11:07,430 --> 00:11:13,130
the other acceptable reasons for manually typing in a birthday? Sometimes a

170
00:11:13,130 --> 00:11:16,510
customer just doesn't want their ID scanned. They'll hold it out, let you see

171
00:11:16,510 --> 00:11:20,250
the picture and whatever you need to verify and then you just type in the

172
00:11:20,250 --> 00:11:23,950
date of birth from there. I guess the only other thing I can think of would be

173
00:11:23,950 --> 00:11:28,790
an ID that's maybe damaged somehow on the back. I've seen one that kind of

174
00:11:28,790 --> 00:11:31,650
looks like it got chewed on or something and the barcode just wasn't

175
00:11:31,650 --> 00:11:38,930
scannable. Is there any review of manually entered birth dates after

176
00:11:38,930 --> 00:11:44,330
So the fact is, is it all captured and then reviewed on this person is typing in more than

177
00:11:44,330 --> 00:11:44,830
the other people?

178
00:11:45,510 --> 00:11:46,010
Yes.

179
00:11:46,550 --> 00:11:53,370
The managers, I would say it's not on a monthly basis, it's kind of as needed, but they'll

180
00:11:53,370 --> 00:11:58,230
go and watch five to ten minutes of everyone shift and just kind of verify what they're

181
00:11:58,230 --> 00:11:58,430
doing.

182
00:11:58,570 --> 00:12:04,530
They have the ability to look for when, say, they hit override when they choose not to

183
00:12:04,530 --> 00:12:05,150
ID someone.

184
00:12:05,770 --> 00:12:10,010
they can look through receipts on the computer find those and then just kind

185
00:12:10,010 --> 00:12:13,010
of gauge whether or not they made the right choice and then go give feedback

186
00:12:13,010 --> 00:12:19,570
or potentially documentation to just spot-checking yes so all the clerks are

187
00:12:19,570 --> 00:12:22,630
able to sell alcohol they're all they're all trained and they're all

188
00:12:22,630 --> 00:12:30,030
able is there any manager override of day to birth there is the only

189
00:12:30,030 --> 00:12:33,370
reason we would use that is if someone looks like they were 50 or older or if

190
00:12:33,370 --> 00:12:34,810
it's someone that we see every day

191
00:12:34,810 --> 00:12:36,250
and we kind of know who they are.

192
00:12:40,590 --> 00:12:45,190
How long DVR is the DVR footage generally kept

193
00:12:45,730 --> 00:12:47,510
in cloud storage, I assume?

194
00:12:47,890 --> 00:12:51,790
Yes, it kind of depends on how much data it is,

195
00:12:51,830 --> 00:12:54,070
but it's usually around 30 days in the store.

196
00:12:54,710 --> 00:12:56,410
If we needed something to go back farther

197
00:12:56,410 --> 00:12:57,710
and told so they can get more

198
00:12:57,710 --> 00:12:58,930
than we can at the store level.

199
00:12:59,210 --> 00:13:00,330
Was that additionally documented

200
00:13:00,330 --> 00:13:02,390
from on-site incident reports

201
00:13:02,390 --> 00:13:04,250
or was there a separate incident reporting

202
00:13:04,250 --> 00:13:05,750
type of system that you use?

203
00:13:07,550 --> 00:13:12,250
Just in the event if there was a escalated event and involved law enforcement or any

204
00:13:12,250 --> 00:13:17,110
other type of emergency services, is there something that the store documents or keeps

205
00:13:17,110 --> 00:13:20,410
in on record in addition to the DVR?

206
00:13:20,830 --> 00:13:26,830
Only if I guess the police requested that, but every time an employee hits the security

207
00:13:26,830 --> 00:13:32,510
garage door thing, there's an email to document what happened and what the person who answered

208
00:13:32,510 --> 00:13:33,290
the phone observed.

209
00:13:34,110 --> 00:13:42,190
I guess another question, just out of curiosity, for this particular location, any particular

210
00:13:43,490 --> 00:13:49,510
thoughts or advantages surrounding clientele comparably to other closed locations as far

211
00:13:49,510 --> 00:13:53,870
as, oh, we imagine this type of sales going to happen more often, this type of traffic

212
00:13:53,870 --> 00:13:59,090
is going to, or demographically, perhaps that's a question after the survey presentation,

213
00:13:59,290 --> 00:14:01,490
but just in general, what are your thoughts on that?

214
00:14:01,490 --> 00:14:04,110
Not necessarily from my perspective.

215
00:14:04,950 --> 00:14:06,890
I mean, we have two stores in Parker right now,

216
00:14:06,950 --> 00:14:10,030
and I feel like they're kind of on opposite ends of the world sometimes,

217
00:14:10,190 --> 00:14:13,590
as far as what they sell and what is popular here and popular there,

218
00:14:13,690 --> 00:14:16,430
so not from my perspective, no.

219
00:14:16,670 --> 00:14:17,550
Thank you. Appreciate it.

220
00:14:19,510 --> 00:14:22,670
Any additional questions from the authority at the moment?

221
00:14:23,970 --> 00:14:24,190
Nope.

222
00:14:25,270 --> 00:14:27,610
We'll continue with the presentation on survey.

223
00:14:28,110 --> 00:14:28,410
What

224
00:14:33,340 --> 00:14:33,640
do you think?

225
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:35,000
Howdy.

226
00:14:36,060 --> 00:14:40,460
Carol Johnson for liquor pros. We are a third-party neutral petition

227
00:14:40,460 --> 00:14:47,660
accompanying that provides petitions for liquor licenses and marijuana licenses and

228
00:14:47,660 --> 00:14:54,100
also teach the training classes. We do not guarantee our results. We use the

229
00:14:54,100 --> 00:14:58,380
maps provided from the city and our paperwork and it's pointed out to the

230
00:14:58,380 --> 00:14:59,980
people when we approach them.

231
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:05,960
That they can sign in support or opposition and leave a note for or against.

232
00:15:07,100 --> 00:15:13,260
The businesses were done on Thursday and Friday, July 9th and 10th. Residents were

233
00:15:13,260 --> 00:15:20,180
done on Friday and Saturday, the 10th and 11th. If you have the original

234
00:15:21,820 --> 00:15:26,180
copies that we sent, there was one alteration. It doesn't have any effect

235
00:15:26,180 --> 00:15:31,500
with the outcome but since we turned this when apparently there has been some

236
00:15:31,500 --> 00:15:36,480
changes that we are no longer allowed to have a signature from both a business

237
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:40,940
and a business owner that also lives in the neighborhood and we had never run

238
00:15:40,940 --> 00:15:48,420
into that statewide before so we will go with that from now on so we did make

239
00:15:48,420 --> 00:15:54,640
60 attempts at residents and 135 I mean 60 of businesses and 135 of

240
00:15:54,640 --> 00:16:02,020
residents for a total of 195, of which in this case now we obtained 85 signatures, 36 in support,

241
00:16:03,220 --> 00:16:09,820
all businesses signed in support, the residents we had 49 signatures, 43 in support, and six in

242
00:16:09,820 --> 00:16:10,260
opposition.

243
00:16:12,540 --> 00:16:17,140
Four of the people who signed in opposition gave no reason. One felt there were

244
00:16:17,140 --> 00:16:22,860
too many or enough and one was against all alcohol. There were 23 who declined to participate,

245
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,620
eight not interested, seven too busy.

246
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,080
Seven don't sign petitions or surveys.

247
00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:30,280
One business against company policy.

248
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,320
And there were 14 who were not qualified to sign.

249
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,380
11 of those 14 were businesses

250
00:16:35,380 --> 00:16:37,540
that did not have an owner or manager present.

251
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,900
One was under 21, one was non-resident

252
00:16:40,900 --> 00:16:42,580
and one did not speak or read English

253
00:16:42,580 --> 00:16:43,640
well enough to participate.

254
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,900
So I do believe this shows that there is a need

255
00:16:46,900 --> 00:16:48,000
for this liquor license.

256
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,120
Very good numbers for a convenience store.

257
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:58,960
very anxious neighborhoods very anxious to get new locations since they were used

258
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:04,800
to having a previous convenience store there with the loaf and jug and so now

259
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:10,160
they're anxious to have something back at a new expanded adventure be glad to

260
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:16,060
answer any questions you might have. Any questions? Thank you so much I know

261
00:17:16,060 --> 00:17:22,200
you're in double duty tonight. Thank you so much. I do have a question for you

262
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,840
Are you going to have those fancy, like, Coke machines as well, like the freestyle machines?

263
00:17:35,190 --> 00:17:35,710
Okay.

264
00:17:40,340 --> 00:17:41,520
Well, you're so open, right?

265
00:17:42,060 --> 00:17:42,500
That's okay.

266
00:17:44,220 --> 00:17:45,560
Any further discussion?

267
00:17:46,780 --> 00:17:46,960
No?

268
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:47,840
Okay, great.

269
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:54,060
Without further discussion from the authority, and we have no additional public comments,

270
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:55,700
I would imagine at this time.

271
00:17:56,420 --> 00:17:56,940
Perfect.

272
00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:59,340
Ask for a motion.

273
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:08,180
Oh, I'm so sorry. Yeah, it's probably help if we close this first right close the hearing at 648 p.m

274
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,200
And now I will ask for motion.

275
00:18:12,940 --> 00:18:18,240
I move to approve the application for a fermented malt beverage and wine liquor license for quick trip

276
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:24,960
Corporation doing business as quick trip store 4277 at 9028 Woodland Drive

277
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:26,540
I second

278
00:18:28,820 --> 00:18:33,720
We have a motion from Mr. Tim Perkins and a second from Ms. Tiffany Haung, go with a

279
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:34,540
roll call votes.

280
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:35,820
Mr. Perkins?

281
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:36,360
Yes.

282
00:18:37,020 --> 00:18:37,700
Mr. Wendey?

283
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:38,140
Yes.

284
00:18:39,260 --> 00:18:39,980
I'm a yes.

285
00:18:40,580 --> 00:18:40,960
Ms. Haung?

286
00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:41,400
Yes.

287
00:18:41,980 --> 00:18:42,780
And Mr. Perkins?

288
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:43,460
Yes.

289
00:18:43,940 --> 00:18:44,240
Excellent.

290
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,260
Motion carries at 6.49 p.m. on unanimous vote.

291
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:49,760
Thank you so much.

292
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,220
It was not necessary, but I felt like doing it, so there you go.

293
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,040
Hey, why not, right? It's here. I'm going to use it.

304
00:20:17,620 --> 00:20:21,580

00:20:21,580 --> 00:20:32,240

307
00:20:36,620 --> 00:20:40,660

name spelling your last name and then letting us know what is your position

309
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:45,240
with GQ barbecue.

310
00:20:45,580 --> 00:20:45,880
Absolutely.

311
00:20:46,140 --> 00:20:50,140
Yes, my name is Nick Usher, U-S-H-E-R, and I'm the president for GQ barbecue.

312
00:20:50,700 --> 00:20:52,800
Can you describe your job duties for GQ?

313
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,580
Yeah, I'm responsible for all aspects of our operations for all of our locations throughout

314
00:20:57,580 --> 00:20:57,900
Colorado.

315
00:20:58,340 --> 00:20:58,440
Okay.

316
00:20:59,120 --> 00:21:02,840
And in that capacity, are you familiar with the proposed business operations here

317
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:03,100
in Parker?

318
00:21:03,380 --> 00:21:04,300
Very familiar with it.

319
00:21:05,780 --> 00:21:10,180
And for those of folks who may not have been to a GQ barbecue before, can you

320
00:21:10,180 --> 00:21:12,360
tell us just a little bit about your history and its concept?

321
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:12,960
Absolutely.

322
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,160
Yeah, so we've been in restaurants for almost 11 years.

323
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,020
This will be our sixth brick and mortar location.

324
00:21:18,660 --> 00:21:20,740
We have a deep history in competing

325
00:21:20,740 --> 00:21:22,540
in professional barbecue competitions.

326
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:24,560
So competed throughout the country

327
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:25,980
and winning a lot of those.

328
00:21:26,300 --> 00:21:28,860
And then in 2015, we opened up our first restaurant.

329
00:21:29,120 --> 00:21:31,780
And proud to say our Parker location will be our sixth one.

330
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,000
And how many restaurants total?

331
00:21:35,300 --> 00:21:35,720
Yeah, you said six.

332
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:36,420
Yeah, so there's six.

333
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,620
And then we also operate inside

334
00:21:38,620 --> 00:21:40,680
of four stadium locations as well.

335
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:45,000
And do all of your brick-and-mortar locations have liquor licenses?

336
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,860
Yes, all six do have the liquor license.

337
00:21:48,100 --> 00:21:49,560
Can you describe your menu for us?

338
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,000
Yeah, so it's a fairly traditional barbecue menu,

339
00:21:53,120 --> 00:21:56,780
specializing in six different proteins from brisket to pulporic ribs,

340
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,880
sausage, a lot of sides that we make in-house,

341
00:22:00,620 --> 00:22:04,200
and then some liquor and beer offerings as well.

342
00:22:04,340 --> 00:22:05,440
Well, it's going to go there next.

343
00:22:05,580 --> 00:22:05,780
All right.

344
00:22:05,780 --> 00:22:07,680
Can you tell us about your alcohol offerings?

345
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:12,340
Yeah, alcohol is definitely like a secondary in our restaurant, it's definitely heavy with

346
00:22:12,340 --> 00:22:13,080
the barbecue.

347
00:22:13,820 --> 00:22:18,080
But we like to showcase a lot of local breweries, so we'll typically showcase a couple of local

348
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:23,100
breweries in and around the area to highlight and then we'll have a few just mixed cocktails,

349
00:22:23,700 --> 00:22:25,900
small sampling of some bourbons and wines.

350
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,700
What's a typical price range from meal at GQ?

351
00:22:29,980 --> 00:22:32,880
I'd say it's usually about $15 or so, just give or take.

352
00:22:33,120 --> 00:22:35,080
And your proposed hours of operation here?

353
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,840
We'll be open at 11 a.m. And we'll be closing at 9 p.m.

354
00:22:40,300 --> 00:22:41,840
In seven days a week

355
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:52,320
We should be ready to open up about mid-November now you mentioned 11 in the morning until 9 o'clock

356
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:53,580
when open

357
00:22:54,240 --> 00:23:00,440
And when actually the question is when alcohol is available is your kitchen always open and food available for your guests?

358
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,720
Yes, so food is available during those entire hours

359
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,240
do you anticipate hiring for this restaurant?

360
00:23:07,460 --> 00:23:08,940
It should be about 30 employees total.

361
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,000
How many managers overseeing that staff?

362
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,060
So there's three salaried managers

363
00:23:14,060 --> 00:23:15,240
that oversee the entire staff.

364
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:16,620
Will they all be new hires?

365
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:18,520
Or are you going to be people in from some

366
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,140
of your other locations who have some experience

367
00:23:20,140 --> 00:23:20,720
with your clients?

368
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,720
Yeah, so the general manager will be a internal promotion.

369
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,680
He's currently an assistant general manager

370
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:26,640
at one of our other locations.

371
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:31,000
And then he'll start looking for another assistant general

372
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:31,880
manager here soon.

373
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:33,800
But we're projecting it'll be

374
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:39,840
internal promotion as well. Now of the employees you plan to hire which groups

375
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,740
of employees would be responsible for the sale and service of alcohol? So we're a

376
00:23:43,740 --> 00:23:48,740
fast casual restaurant so all orders are taken at the front counter so there'll

377
00:23:48,740 --> 00:23:52,760
be some cashiers and then we also also have a small bar area so we'll have a

378
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,700
few bartenders and those will be the individuals that will be ringing in the

379
00:23:55,700 --> 00:24:00,160
sale of alcohol. Approximately how many people are we talking about? Give or take it's

380
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:05,120
going to be about eight people in total. Can you describe your training of those

381
00:24:05,120 --> 00:24:09,700
folks specifically as it relates to again the sale and service of alcohol? We have

382
00:24:09,700 --> 00:24:14,020
an internal training that anyone that's in the front of the house goes through.

383
00:24:14,580 --> 00:24:17,640
It's upon their hire and their orientation and when they go through

384
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,980
the register training there's an alcohol training portion that we

385
00:24:20,980 --> 00:24:25,700
internally go through and we've also utilized other third-party sites

386
00:24:25,700 --> 00:24:30,840
like a tips training to help give some additional training as well. Do you as

387
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:36,880
part of your training process also have written policies in place for your staff?

388
00:24:37,360 --> 00:24:40,400
Yes in our handbook there's a written policy that everyone signs it talks

389
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,920
about alcohol serving and how to catch signs of over-serving and how to

390
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:48,500
properly ID someone and what those requirements are. Well let me ask you a

391
00:24:48,500 --> 00:24:51,600
few of those questions. So if I come up and I order an alcoholic beverage with

392
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:56,320
my barbecue. What's your policy for asking for identification? So we train

393
00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,280
everyone if you look like you are potentially 50 years or younger to

394
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:05,600
automatically ID and at that that time and at the the system prompts anyone

395
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,040
when they ring in something that's on the menu for an alcoholic beverage or

396
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:13,600
prompt to make sure they ask for an ID. So 50 and older they can bypass that?

397
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,540
Correct. And if you appear 50 and younger, you acquire tasks for that.

398
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,060
That's correct. Are all of your drinks single service or do you have any

399
00:25:21,060 --> 00:25:25,180
larger format drinks like pictures of beer everything single service so just

400
00:25:25,180 --> 00:25:29,880
pints or just single-serve mixed drinks so if you're having someone order a drink

401
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,660
right there in front of you the assumption of course is that's the

402
00:25:32,660 --> 00:25:35,820
person drinking it you're asking for their idea correct yes and how many of

403
00:25:35,820 --> 00:25:38,740
our drinks are that's how many ideas we need to see so if someone was to come

404
00:25:38,740 --> 00:25:41,640
up to the bar and ask for three drinks we would have to see three

405
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,400
separate IDs now I think you mentioned this earlier but can you confirm

406
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,460
that your staff has talked to recognize the signs of intoxication and

407
00:25:48,460 --> 00:25:49,300
Yes.

408
00:25:49,980 --> 00:25:53,660
Yes, we do talk about that during the training and the signs of intoxication and what to

409
00:25:53,660 --> 00:25:54,160
look for.

410
00:25:54,660 --> 00:25:59,280
And we have a very strict policy around over-serving and obviously underage-serving.

411
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:04,840
Well, let's talk about if someone did appear to be intoxicated and either ordered their

412
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,560
first drink because they've been somewhere else or maybe they've been in and won a second

413
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:10,000
or a third.

414
00:26:10,980 --> 00:26:14,480
If they do appear intoxicated, what is your staff trained to do?

415
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:18,040
They're trained to offer an alternative beverage, whether it's a water or soda,

416
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:22,960
the tea on us. And we've also offered other food options as well to sit them

417
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:27,880
down. Um, we've offered rides home as well. So if they appear to be intoxicated,

418
00:26:27,940 --> 00:26:30,680
we don't send them away because last thing we want them to do is go out and

419
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:35,900
drive. So we offer a third party like Uber service as well if that ever

420
00:26:35,900 --> 00:26:39,580
happens. But fortunately, it's very, very rare that anything happens like

421
00:26:39,580 --> 00:26:42,680
that at one of our restaurants. Now you said we, which is a good sign of

422
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,440
a manager, someone we're seeing, but it isn't your hourly employees are

423
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,800
having these kinds of conversations with someone like that or do they bring in

424
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:56,140
management staff to kind of handle those? Yeah we train the staff how to to look

425
00:26:56,140 --> 00:27:00,920
for it and what to do in that event but we always have a salaried manager in the

426
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,840
building at all times so it's very easy for them just to flag down one of our

427
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,940
managers and then they can handle the situation. Now you mentioned earlier your

428
00:27:08,940 --> 00:27:14,180
point of sale system would give a reminder or a pop-up of some sort. Can you tell us

429
00:27:14,180 --> 00:27:15,740
what that physically looks like.

430
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,700
Yeah, it's kind of like almost like a warning

431
00:27:18,700 --> 00:27:21,200
where it just pops up asking to verify

432
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,300
if someone's of age in order to order this product.

433
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,400
Are you familiar with Colorado's vertical identification

434
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,140
issued to an underage driver

435
00:27:31,140 --> 00:27:34,140
and good for a few weeks after one's 21st birthday?

436
00:27:34,420 --> 00:27:35,280
I think I could step back.

437
00:27:35,340 --> 00:27:36,840
Oh yeah, we're good now, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

438
00:27:37,740 --> 00:27:38,340
There we go.

439
00:27:38,740 --> 00:27:38,980
Yes.

440
00:27:39,860 --> 00:27:41,460
Do you have any special policies

441
00:27:41,460 --> 00:27:43,460
in regard to that form of identification?

442
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:51,300
Any time that there's anyone that has a vertical idea, they have to seek manager approval before

443
00:27:51,300 --> 00:27:52,320
they can move forward.

444
00:27:52,620 --> 00:27:56,860
So they're trained at any time they see a vertical ID, they're not allowed to identify

445
00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:57,760
that.

446
00:27:58,380 --> 00:27:59,740
They need to get a manager's approval.

447
00:28:00,120 --> 00:28:02,020
Okay, so at least two sets of eyes on those.

448
00:28:02,020 --> 00:28:02,300
Correct.

449
00:28:02,580 --> 00:28:04,240
My guess is you probably don't see them very often.

450
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:05,420
Not very often at all.

451
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:10,740
And what are the consequences to an employee who might violate your alcohol service policies

452
00:28:10,740 --> 00:28:13,840
and let's say serve a minor or someone who might appear intoxicated.

453
00:28:14,180 --> 00:28:21,880
In our handbook it is a termination immediately so if anyone does serve any minor whether

454
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:26,920
it's part of a sting or it is a minor that we do catch then they're terminated immediately.

455
00:28:29,360 --> 00:28:32,260
What's your anticipated seating capacity for this restaurant?

456
00:28:32,900 --> 00:28:34,880
Should have a total about 90 seats total.

457
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,080
And that includes indoor and outdoor space.

458
00:28:37,220 --> 00:28:37,500
Correct.

459
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:38,980
The bar, yes.

460
00:28:39,220 --> 00:28:39,820
Or sorry, the patio.

461
00:28:40,340 --> 00:28:40,740
Yep.

462
00:28:40,740 --> 00:28:42,820
and how large is the outside patio?

463
00:28:43,140 --> 00:28:44,380
The patio is probably gonna have about,

464
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,060
I think 10 tables or so.

465
00:28:46,300 --> 00:28:48,960
So maybe I think it has like 20 or so seats.

466
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,340
I don't know exactly, but something close to that.

467
00:28:51,940 --> 00:28:54,340
And finally, can you confirm that the sale of food

468
00:28:54,340 --> 00:28:57,460
at your restaurant will account for at least 25%

469
00:28:57,460 --> 00:28:58,320
of your gross sales?

470
00:28:58,820 --> 00:29:01,780
Yes, it actually is about 95% of our sales.

471
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,260
Alcohol is about 5% of our overall sales.

472
00:29:04,340 --> 00:29:05,540
At your remaining contact?

473
00:29:05,540 --> 00:29:07,440
At the existing locations, yes.

474
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,080
At this time, I would make Mr. Usher available to you.

475
00:29:13,220 --> 00:29:16,180
Sometimes I go through the floor plans and we're happy to do so.

476
00:29:16,300 --> 00:29:18,520
I've got it right here in my computer if you'd like us to.

477
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,320
But sometimes folks don't want to take that time either.

478
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,760
So I'll leave that up to you and I will make Mr. Usher available for any questions you might have.

479
00:29:28,100 --> 00:29:28,680
Thank you.

480
00:29:31,140 --> 00:29:36,580
Is alcohol paid for separately then only at the bar or can it be purchased with the food

481
00:29:36,580 --> 00:29:38,020
and then just dispense separately.

482
00:29:38,260 --> 00:29:41,940
It could be purchased together or separate.

483
00:29:42,460 --> 00:29:44,500
So we'll have certain individuals that'll place their order

484
00:29:44,500 --> 00:29:45,900
when they're placing their food order.

485
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:47,200
They'll order a beer.

486
00:29:47,900 --> 00:29:51,260
And if that's the case, the bartender then gets a ticket

487
00:29:51,260 --> 00:29:52,460
to then make the order.

488
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,440
And then they also have the right to ID when they deliver.

489
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,860
So if, say, you were to come into the restaurant,

490
00:29:59,860 --> 00:29:59,980
Thank you very much for watching this video, and I'll see you in the next one.

491
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:05,920
Order a beer at the counter. And the cashier IDs you, you go sit down, we bring you your

492
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:10,560
food. The bartender would bring over your drink if they feel like you're of a, of, could be

493
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,820
potentially underage, they could, they would ask for your ID again in order before they

494
00:30:13,820 --> 00:30:15,820
serve you the beer. But you can do it either way.

495
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,640
There's the service well next to the POS systems, right?

496
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,340
Correct. Yeah, it's all, it's all exclusively at just the bar area.

497
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:28,280
And the, sorry, the bar storage area on the map is the, that's the bar, so it's

498
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:29,940
all contained at the bar behind the bar.

499
00:30:29,940 --> 00:30:30,660
Yes, there's that.

500
00:30:30,780 --> 00:30:32,160
And I believe there's an issue of storage

501
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,140
back in the walk-in cooler as well.

502
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:35,280
Oh yeah, okay, I see that.

503
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:39,240
Is there any, not necessarily wait staff,

504
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,160
but any employees kind of working the table area

505
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,140
where the beverages are being drank?

506
00:30:44,300 --> 00:30:45,780
So you bring someone at a table,

507
00:30:46,380 --> 00:30:47,620
is there any sort of follow-up

508
00:30:47,620 --> 00:30:49,260
on who at the table is drinking that,

509
00:30:49,380 --> 00:30:51,020
or there's no staff?

510
00:30:51,220 --> 00:30:52,840
Absolutely, yeah, we have managers on the floor.

511
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,740
That's their primary duty is to be on the floor.

512
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,580
Since we deliver the food to the table,

513
00:30:57,580 --> 00:31:02,540
there's constantly somebody walking around the table so yeah there's we've

514
00:31:02,540 --> 00:31:06,100
never ran into an issue where again to there where someone buys it and it's for

515
00:31:06,100 --> 00:31:10,380
somebody else it'd be very very easy for us to catch something like that. Is the

516
00:31:10,380 --> 00:31:15,240
patio fenced in or I see a note about planters being around the patio is there

517
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:20,880
also a fence? There's no physical fence the patio will or sorry the planters

518
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,660
will make up the border of it you'll see on the far north end of the

519
00:31:24,660 --> 00:31:27,920
plans that is a handicap accessible ramp that's where the handicap parking is

520
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:32,880
so that ramp will be remaining open and then on the east side that side will

521
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:39,680
also remain open so you can enter and exit through that patio it on the west

522
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:43,700
side it shows there's no planter there that's where there's a drive-through and

523
00:31:43,700 --> 00:31:47,220
so no one will be walking presumably through the drive-through our

524
00:31:47,220 --> 00:31:49,620
intention would be to carry those planters all the way to the side

525
00:31:49,620 --> 00:31:54,040
of the building to then make that is not an additional access point to

526
00:31:55,770 --> 00:32:00,090
just have the two there plus the inside so staff will also be circulating

527
00:32:00,090 --> 00:32:04,070
throughout patio correct and are you using the drive-through is it just gonna

528
00:32:04,070 --> 00:32:08,950
be a defunct it's gonna be a pickup lane so it'll be for pickup only so you place

529
00:32:08,950 --> 00:32:14,070
like an online order and then come through and pick up the order it is

530
00:32:14,070 --> 00:32:18,210
yeah the pickup windows on the east side of the building and can they get

531
00:32:18,210 --> 00:32:25,710
alcohol on the license as a part of the license is to do a liquor to go

532
00:32:25,710 --> 00:32:29,650
but as of right now we are not setting to do any kind of online liquor sales.

533
00:32:29,890 --> 00:32:31,030
And you're going to have a full bar.

534
00:32:31,510 --> 00:32:31,870
Correct.

535
00:32:39,300 --> 00:32:43,520
This is a touching point for me, but talking about security, talking about cameras, talking

536
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:47,000
about DVR storage, if you don't mind.

537
00:32:47,300 --> 00:32:48,200
Absolutely, yeah.

538
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:54,900
So we have a 16 camera, like DVR system, typically depends on the quality of the

539
00:32:54,900 --> 00:32:59,000
camera, but typically we do get about three weeks worth of data from it.

540
00:32:59,540 --> 00:33:02,940
It's stored internally and we have remote access to it as well.

541
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:07,860
On-site security or additional security through business hours

542
00:33:07,860 --> 00:33:12,900
that demanded or evening hours or how do you, is it just a manager on duty

543
00:33:12,900 --> 00:33:14,220
as far as the escalation point?

544
00:33:14,300 --> 00:33:17,520
Exactly, as the manager on duty and then there's a security system

545
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,380
for the store when we're not inside the restaurant.

546
00:33:20,580 --> 00:33:24,540
You know if there's any security for the commercial shopping area,

547
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:34,460
Yeah, I'm not sure I don't believe there is one but I haven't seen it so

548
00:33:38,750 --> 00:33:40,630
this one's much bigger than your

549
00:33:41,710 --> 00:33:42,870
Park Meadow one

550
00:33:43,510 --> 00:33:46,570
It's actually roughly a little bit smaller really

551
00:33:46,570 --> 00:33:50,610
The the Park Meadows one is about 4,000 square feet

552
00:33:50,610 --> 00:33:53,070
It looks not as big

553
00:33:53,750 --> 00:33:56,010
Because it's adjacent to all those other buildings

554
00:33:57,230 --> 00:33:59,530
So yeah, this one's going to be slightly smaller than that one.

555
00:33:59,670 --> 00:34:02,290
You also take up a lot of space for that ice cream side.

556
00:34:02,510 --> 00:34:06,130
Exactly, yes, yes. So this one will, it'll have ice cream in a different concept.

557
00:34:06,150 --> 00:34:08,390
We also have an ice cream element to our barbecue.

558
00:34:08,670 --> 00:34:11,590
So we have a large ice cream counter at that Park Meadows location.

559
00:34:11,810 --> 00:34:12,450
So this one will have the ice cream?

560
00:34:12,450 --> 00:34:14,610
This one will have it, but it'll only be in to-go form.

561
00:34:15,030 --> 00:34:15,930
So do you like the ice cream?

562
00:34:16,330 --> 00:34:16,970
It's fantastic.

563
00:34:17,150 --> 00:34:20,990
Oh yeah, I always got ice cream with the barbecue.

564
00:34:21,110 --> 00:34:24,170
It's fantastic, but we're doing it in like single serve cups with this one.

565
00:34:24,170 --> 00:34:24,810
metal. Yeah.

566
00:34:27,290 --> 00:34:35,710
There you go. But is your point of sale different than where your alcohol is at?

567
00:34:36,170 --> 00:34:41,370
Yes. So the point is sale. Like if you look on the floor plan, it's kind of like on that

568
00:34:41,370 --> 00:34:46,530
northeast corner right there. And then all of the alcohol is stored at the bar. So there's

569
00:34:46,530 --> 00:34:50,430
no alcohol at the cashier. So if you were to order a beer there, it would still come from the

570
00:34:50,430 --> 00:34:54,550
bar found that was easier is that one place that would come from instead of

571
00:34:54,550 --> 00:34:55,310
multiple places.

572
00:34:57,970 --> 00:35:02,110
We can talk about access within the in the actual restaurant

573
00:35:02,110 --> 00:35:05,910
itself right and so we have the alcohol storage and the key holders are for

574
00:35:05,910 --> 00:35:10,590
alcohol storage who has access? Just the managers so the yeah the three

575
00:35:10,590 --> 00:35:12,690
salaried managers. And who has access to the smoke area?

576
00:35:15,030 --> 00:35:20,790
Do you? Yeah absolutely. So it'll be the same thing we have like a we have an

577
00:35:20,790 --> 00:35:24,310
electronic keypad on there so then that way we can keep it secure because we

578
00:35:24,310 --> 00:35:28,010
smoke overnight so all of so you'll drive by there tonight you'll be able to

579
00:35:28,010 --> 00:35:32,150
smell some barbecue that'll be cooking for the next day. Can you get into the

580
00:35:32,150 --> 00:35:36,170
restaurant from the patio? Yes so there's a door on that far north then right

581
00:35:36,170 --> 00:35:41,610
next to where the POS is there's a door there. Okay so if I hypothetically yeah

582
00:35:41,610 --> 00:35:45,770
if you'll entertain me for a second okay so you have Costco right and then

583
00:35:45,770 --> 00:35:51,370
you have the establishment and I could get into the restaurant from the patio

584
00:35:51,370 --> 00:35:57,530
and so if I buy a sixer at Costco and I want it to be a little sneaky and try to

585
00:35:57,530 --> 00:36:02,330
sneak it into your restaurant what what happens. Yeah there's no outside alcohol

586
00:36:02,330 --> 00:36:06,270
allowed in our premise that you can consume so in the event that that's

587
00:36:06,270 --> 00:36:08,870
something that happened we would definitely ask you to leave. Good deal.

588
00:36:08,870 --> 00:36:09,710
Thank you.

589
00:36:11,750 --> 00:36:13,730
We'll continue on to the survey presentation.

590
00:36:15,350 --> 00:36:17,410
We'll send you other questions before you.

591
00:36:17,990 --> 00:36:19,390
Good evening

592
00:36:26,430 --> 00:36:26,910
again.

593
00:36:27,230 --> 00:36:31,450
I'll make the initial, we'll say we are a neutral petitioning company,

594
00:36:31,610 --> 00:36:35,590
but as far as the process, I think it's been soon enough that you would remember.

595
00:36:38,470 --> 00:36:41,690
This was an interesting one that took more trips to Parker,

596
00:36:42,010 --> 00:36:44,130
because I kept getting rained out.

597
00:36:44,130 --> 00:36:49,030
I mean like majorly rained out but we got it done the other thing that was

598
00:36:49,030 --> 00:36:53,010
interesting was a lot of people weren't aware that Freddie's was closing because

599
00:36:53,010 --> 00:36:58,930
they were so open at the time that I was doing the petitioning in any case we did

600
00:36:58,930 --> 00:37:03,330
businesses on Wednesday and Friday July 15th and 17th and the residents on

601
00:37:03,970 --> 00:37:09,910
Sunday the 19th Friday the 24th and Thursday the 30th 24th was a major

602
00:37:09,910 --> 00:37:19,070
rates. From that, we made 51 attempts at businesses and 106 residents for 157. We obtained 81 signatures,

603
00:37:19,270 --> 00:37:27,450
100% in support. 37 from businesses and 44 from the residents. We tried to do a little

604
00:37:27,450 --> 00:37:33,870
bit different area. It wasn't exactly identical to the quick trip, so tried to not do too

605
00:37:33,870 --> 00:37:38,730
much renovate repeat especially since we had just done Shake Shack which also

606
00:37:38,730 --> 00:37:43,730
overlapped somewhat so we did try to pick out different areas to approach

607
00:37:43,730 --> 00:37:48,170
people so they didn't think they'd already signed it there were 14 who were

608
00:37:48,170 --> 00:37:51,770
not qualified and once again there were 11 of the 14 were not for businesses

609
00:37:51,770 --> 00:37:55,750
that did not have an owner or manager available two were non-residents and

610
00:37:55,750 --> 00:38:01,410
one was under 21 13 declined to participate five not interested four

611
00:38:01,410 --> 00:38:08,370
too busy, two against alcohol and two no reason. I do believe that 100% in support shows there

612
00:38:08,370 --> 00:38:14,470
is a need and desire for this. A fair number of people were familiar with GQ. Others didn't

613
00:38:14,470 --> 00:38:19,070
know but they were glad that it was a local restaurant rather than a franchise of some

614
00:38:19,070 --> 00:38:22,030
sort. I'd be glad to answer any questions you might have.

615
00:38:22,270 --> 00:38:29,550
Excellent. Any questions? Perfect. See no additional public comment. I will close

616
00:38:29,550 --> 00:38:38,230
the hearing at 7.09 p.m. and if I may ask for a motion. I move to approve the

617
00:38:38,230 --> 00:38:42,930
application for a new hotel and restaurant license for GQ BBQ Parker LLC

618
00:38:42,930 --> 00:38:53,630
doing business as GQ barbecue located at 18 424 Cottonwood Drive of a motion

619
00:38:53,630 --> 00:38:57,930
from Mr. Weineke and a second from Mr. Perkins and I'll move to a world

620
00:38:57,930 --> 00:39:05,470
call vote. Mr. Perkins? Yes. Mr. Weineke? Yes. Mr. LaBella? Yes. Ms. Hale? Yes. Mr.

621
00:39:05,530 --> 00:39:14,090
Cruz? Yes. Motion carries on the unanimous votes. There you go. Congratulations. Thank

622
00:39:14,090 --> 00:39:15,030
you. Thank you very much.

623
00:39:17,270 --> 00:39:20,790
Other business, any additional business from the authority

624
00:39:20,790 --> 00:39:23,150
or staff or anyone else and

625
00:39:25,970 --> 00:39:30,730
I will adjourn adjourn our meeting at 7 10

626
00:39:30,730 --> 00:39:34,690
p.m. tonight thank you everybody somebody take this away from me
