Nob Hill Friends and Neighbors,

Our association has received the attached application 1221330 for Restaurant License Type B; Beer, Wine, and Spirits with On Premise Consumption Only. This is in the space that was formerly Hey Jhonny.

When your association learns of a liquor license application we contact the applicant to gather information. We pass this to our email list to gather neighborhood input. If neighbors express questions or concerns we seek further information. We invite you to reply to all if you have a position on this request.

-Owners and Operators of the business: Paul Chavez, Mariessa Sanchez, Jessica Beecher 

-Contact information: Jessica Beecher 505-401-9633

·Current and recent operations with alcohol service and period of operation: none

-Food menu: yes (Jessica, If you would like to provide details feel free)

-Hours of operation: Wed-Sat 11-10 and Sunday 10-3 

·Measures the applicant plans relative to security: thorough training with detailed policies and procedures. Cameras

The CABQ Liquor Hearing Officer will hear the request on Tuesday, April 5.

Since there are no addresses of existing operations and this group is new at this location we don’t have any summaries from APD.

At 5 pm on Friday, April 1 NHNA will evaluate input received. When input is neutral or positive we generally don’t develop an association position which results in approval.  If input suggests strong concerns or directors have strong concerns we will call a special meeting and alert the community through our email list.

Areas of concern sometimes form around expected impact on community safety and quality of life and factors including but not limited to calls for police service at applicant's operations and security plans. Locations near Residential Zone Districts (IDO 14-16-2-3) are problematic, particularly if affected neighbors oppose. Hours of service and services offered are not generally part of the hearing officer’s consideration, but may affect the association’s position. Naturally, neighbor input is crucial.

We will notify the email list, the liquor hearing officer, and the applicant of the association’s action. 

All members of the community are free to provide written comments to the hearing officer or attend the CABQ hearing in a personal capacity.
