Re: Good Time Charli’s; 6045 West Chandler Boulevard; #7
To whom it may concern:

Our firm represents GTC Chandler, LLC dba Good Time Charli’s
(‘applicant’) located at 6045 West Chandler Boulevard, Unit #7,
Chandler, Arizona 85225. The applicant seeks a Conditional Use
Permit as required, resulting from their acquisition of an Arizona
Department of Liquor License and Control Series 6 liquor license for a
bar, solely for administrative compliance with ARS Title 4.

The applicant's business is a neighborhood gastro pub with live
entertainment. The applicant's business totals four thousand four
hundred sixty-nine (4,469) square feet, with three thousand nine
hundred eighty (3,980) square feet of inside restaurant space and four
hundred eighty-nine (489) square feet attached outdoor patio space.
The business has a seating capacity of two hundred four (204) persons,
with one hundred twenty-one (121) persons designated for the interior
dining area, fourteen (14) persons designated for the bar area, and
sixty-nine (69) persons designated for the outdoor attached patio area.

The applicant's regular business hours are 11:00 AM through 2:00 AM

The business has twenty-one (21) wall mounted televisions throughout
the interior and two (2) televisions wall mounted on the attached outdoor
patio.

The outdoor patio is fully enclosed with a fifty-four (54) inch high block
wall, in compliance with Arizona Revised Statute Title 4. The applicant
has planted multiple Ficus trees around the perimeter of the patio to
further mitigate any sound leaving the area. In accordance with the EUP
approval, live acoustical music on the outdoor attached patio shall be at
a low level and terminate on or before 8:00 PM.

The applicant provides live entertainment not to exceed four (4) nights
weekly, generally on Friday and Saturday nights. Such live
entertainment consists of rock bands, solo entertainers, and karaoke.
All live entertainment will be facing in the northerly direction to minimize
sound detectable outdoors. The exterior facing east door is restricted for
emergency exit use only. Further, supplemental sound barrier material
has been installed to mitigate and/or eliminate any detectable sound
outdoors. The applicant continues to be in strict compliance with the
stipulations of City of Chandler EUP PLH21-0054.

The applicant currently holds an Arizona Department of Liquor License
and Control Series 12 liquor license for a restaurant (12070014101).
This liquor license requires the licensee to have a food to liquor ratio of
40%/60%, thus a minimum of 40% of the gross revenues from operation
to be food related items. During a recent audit of the applicant by
members of the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and control, the
results of said audit resulted in a food items sales percentage of less
than the required 40%.

@ Page 3 February 17, 2023

As a result of the food sales percentage audit disclosing a food sales
percentage of less than 40 %, the applicant was ordered to acquire an
Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control Series 6 liquor
license for a bar. The acquisition of said Series 6 liquor license requires
the application for and issuance of a City of Chandler Conditional Use
Permit, applied for herewith.

The applicant now holds two (2) stacked liquor licenses; Series 12
(12070014101) and Series 6 (06070568) and is in full administrative
compliance with ARS Title 4 currently.

All other elements of the applicant’s business remain unchanged.
