To: City of Chandler Planning Division and 
Chandler City Counsel, 
 
The property owner of SoHo63, Boyd W. Christensen, Nightwalk LLC, has filed a Use 
Permit, extension of premise with the City of Chandler’s Planning Division to extend use 
of SoHo63’s Series 6 liquor license #06070690, off Boston Street, to the exterior of the 
building, on the sidewalk, on the West side of the main entrance to encompass the 
sidewalk similar to what has been approved by neighboring businesses along Boston St. 
in Downtown Chandler.  The area is approximately 425 sq. ft. and will be defined by an 
iron gate, resembling the decorative main front and rear iron doors.  The gated area 
will have two egresses and will have seating and standing accommodations pending 
the event needs. The proposed gated area is only to the West side of the facility, not on 
the east side.  This will allow ample area for pedestrians to walk unaffected and 
unrestricted.  
 
SoHo63 is a wedding, meeting and event venue with functions traditionally taking 
place over the weekend evenings.  Hours of operation are from 9am-12am and the 
patio will be used for a short time between 4pm-7pm, usually only for 1 hour.  SoHo63 
typically has at least 4 staff managing each event.  This request for a gated area on the 
sidewalk is compatible with other area restaurants and bars nearby and on this street. 
The use will be to extend the indoor area with an outdoor area through an existing 
doorway.  There will not be any live entertainment within this area. Once approved, we 
are planning on the erection of the gate to take place very late September or during 
October, 2021. 
Thank you kindly,
