Louisville Local Licensing Authority Meeting Date: November 29, 2004 Page 3 of 6 Felicia and Stephen Mak, business address of 1387 South Boulder Road Unit G, Louisville, CO 80027, entered their names for the record and were given the oath by Secretary Hanson. Vice-Chairperson Paige called for the applicant's presentation. Stephen Mak reported the new restaurant was in the King Soopers shopping center and felt the restaurant will provide a quick food service that is missing in the area. He also stated the liquor license would provide another beverage option to the customers. Vice-Chairperson called for audience members who wished to speak in favor of the application. James Hsu, 206 Shadow Wood Drive, Alamosa, CO who owns the concept for the East West Grill, entered his name for the record and took the oath. He commented the beer and wine license was simply an enhancement of the patron's dining and was a minor part of the sales at this type of restaurant. There is no intention to act as a bar and the restaurant would limit the patron to three drinks. A handbook is provided for servers concerning the service of alcohol. Mr. Hsu was asked if he held any financial interest in this establishment. He stated he did not. Vice-Chairperson Paige called for anyone who wished to speak in opposition of the application. As a final comment, Stephen Mak stated his wife, Felicia, has been in the restaurant business for many years and safety is of prime concern to them and they have taken steps to limit any liability issues. Vice-Chairperson Paige closed the public hearing. Mulvahill moved that the Local Licensing Authority of the City of Louisville find that the applicant is of good moral character, that the inhabitants of the neighborhood desire the license be granted, that the license will meet the reasonable requirements of the neighborhood, that all City and State law requirements have been met and that, based on these findings, the Local Licensing Authority approve issuance of a beer and wine license for JCK Mak Holdings doing business as East West Grill.
