We have not had indoor dining since last March and at this time do not plan on reopening the inside until all staff is vaccinated. This would essentially replace our indoor dining during this time. 
> With regards to the 911 call list. All calls were made by myself. We had two separate break-ins during that time frame, the food truck on Xmas Eve that APD requested CSI and a break in to the restaurant which required the building being cleared by the K-9 unit as well as CSI.

If you do have any questions or concerns please feel free to reach out to me. We are more than willing to work with everyone to create an atmosphere that all can enjoy. Thank you for your time and hopefully we'll be seeing you soon!
