BACKGROUND: Los Perros Del Sobrino is a new Latin American restaurant in the City and is requesting extended alcohol hours for FY 19/20 for a 2-COP liquor license.
They are located at 7950 W. Sample Road in the very northwestern portion of the City.
This Special Permit shall permit the sale for consumption on premises of alcoholic beverages during the following hours:
From 8:00 AM until 2:00 AM of the following day, Monday through Thursday;
From 8:00 AM Friday until 4:00 AM the following Saturday;

From 8:00 AM New Year’s Eve until 4:00 AM on New Year’s Day;
From 8:00 AM St. Patrick’s Day until 4:00 AM on March 18.
Any person, vendor or place of business which has been regularly licensed by the State of Florida to sell and dispense alcoholic beverages may apply for a special permit for extended hours. Any person, vendor or place of business which offers food service and has been regularly licensed by the State of Florida to sell and dispense alcoholic beverages with a 2COP or 4COP allocation may apply for a Sunday morning hours permit. Any person, vendor or place of business desiring a special permit for extended hours or a Sunday morning hours permit shall file with the City Clerk a typewritten or printed application on forms provided by the City. Such application, among other things, shall state the location where such business is to be conducted; the name of the applicant together with the names of the individuals operating a business under their own or under a trade name; the names of the officers or members of the firms engaged in any such business; the names of all individuals or business entities owning five (5) per cent or more of the assets of a business (excluding publicly owned corporations); the type of business license issued by the State of Florida and the number thereof. The applicant shall also furnish such other information as may be deemed reasonable by the City and shall pay the necessary license fee together with one hundred fifty dollars ($150.00) application fee. No application may be deemed completed until the requirements of this paragraph are met.
The City Commission may require, as a condition of the privilege of extending hours of operation, compliance with any reasonable conditions deemed by the commission to be necessary to mitigate or eliminate the adverse effects of such extended hours. These conditions may include, without being limited to, provision by the owner or operator of the premises to provide at his expense additional off-street parking, security personnel, off-duty police personnel, screening and buffering from nearby properties. The City Commission may also require a cash bond in an amount they deem appropriate, but not in excess of two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500.00) to ensure that the conditions which have been required are faithfully performed. No bond as provided herein will be forfeited unless a hearing before the City Commission is held and it is determined that the conditions which have been required have not been performed.
This agenda item was on the Wednesday, September 4, 2019, Regular City Commission meeting and no motion was made for the item, so no vote was taken.
At the Thursday, September 12, 2019, City Commission Workshop, the City Commission agreed by consensus to hold a Special City Commission meeting on Tuesday, September 17, 2019, at 5 p.m. to reconsider this agenda item.
