Wheeler Public House. Leonard Oates, Attorney, was present representing the applicant. Attorney Oates - Mr. Mayor and members of the Council. I am here on behalf of C & K Enterprises, Inc. C & K Enterprises is a Colorado corporation which has been newly formed and is comprised of Mr. William Keating and Mr. Tom Cernohouz. Mr. Keating and Mr. Cernohouz a=e seated in the secOnd row on the south side. As you know, Mr. Keating has been associated with The Pub for ~pproximately 2 years and Mr. Cernohouz has been associated with that establishment about 1-1/2 years. Also present is Mr. Donald Hamouz who is the present license holder for The Pub. Mr. Hamouz desires to sell the business, as is being operated, to C &K Enterprises. We would solicit qu&stions on the application and proposed operation of The Pub. I would state that primarily the operation will be run with more ownership managment. Meaning there will not be hired men but the actual owners, Mr. Cernohouz and Mr.~ Keating through their corporation will manage the place and ae'tually at most times either one or both of them will be present in the establishment. I believe that everything is in order regarding the application, at least I hage been so i~formed by the City Clerk. They would be willing to answer any questions you mi~ght have also. Copies of all documents required by the City and State were submitted to Council. Same was reviewed by COuncit. Mayor Barnard - Lennie, I notice here that on the balance sheet there is, this is the lease,: right, from Swales. Attorney Oates - That is correct. Mayor Barnard - I notice an item here real property, $35,000 what in the world does that represent. Attorney Oates - That is a personal financial statement of the individual applicant. That is CernohoUz's personal financial statement, ~ou will also find one in there for Mr. Keating. Mayor Barnard - And that bec0mes~an~asset~ Attorney Oates - That is their personal assets, it goes towards their personal qualifications. Mayor Barnard , Let me ask you this. I questioned this lease the last time it came up, because I think the tecms were abOut the same. The total amount the leasee has to pay is $48,000 payable in monthly installments. $300 for the first 40 months, $400 for 40 months and $500 for last 40 months. Do you thin~k that' these are numbers that the leasee can live with here. Regular Meeting Aspen City Council April 14, 1969 Pub Liq. Lic. Attorney Oates - This is a question w~±ch I think that either Mr. Cernohouz or Mr. Keating wuold be better qualified to answer. M~. Keating m They are very reasonable, there is no trouble meeting the demands. Mayor Barnard - I was thinking, Council, a little bit of the last ~ime the Hotel got into a situation remember the tenants had terms that there just wasn't anYway they could meet. them. Attorney Oates - This would be the same lease and basically we will have it assigned to this corporation. Mayor Barnard -~Was Hamouz successful in 'keeping up the terms of that lease. Attorney Oates - Mr. Hamouz to my knowledge, is not in default of the leas~ at this time. Perhaps Mr. Swales ~ca~ld vertify that. Mayor Barnard - What I am trying to find out is whether or not is it truly a Workable situation~ Can't just transfer from party to party if they can't hack it. Attorney Oates ~ I believe it is. I believe th& reason is that Mr. Hamouz wants to get out of the business because he ~ants to devote most of his efforts to Basalt Electric which is another concern of his. Mr. Keating and Mr. Cernohouz have had sufficient experience with the business and they feel that they can make a go of it. Mayor Barnard - Are there any further comments. Attorney Kern - Lennie, Has Mr. Swales of the Wheeler Opera House Company approved the consignment of this lease. Attorney Oates - They have indicated their willingness to do so. Of course, any approval of this l~cense could be contingent om issuance of the license be contingent upon written approval. But I am certain there won't be any problem. Mr. Hamouz - Lennie, he has already signed one copy. Attorney Oates - Is that in Stewart's files. Mr. Hamouz -'No, you should have it with his signature on it. Attorney Oates - Then evidently the~e has been written approval of the consignment of the lease under the same terms and conditions. (There were no further comments, Mayor Barnard closed the public hearing.) Mayor Barnard - Council what 'kind of action would you lfke to ta~ke on this. Councilman Clymer - My way of looking at this, its just a matter of changing a name on a piece of paper. Your not changing the premises, the operation, or location or anything else. I personally don't have any objections to the change of ownership of this thing. Councilman Bergman - It will probably be operated just li'Re it was before. A place where you can go~ the theatre and stop down there for a drink nice surroundings and so forth. Attorney Oates - Let me interject, if anything, as I indicated the management will be present. If you will recall historically Mr. Swales first on the place and then Mr. Hamouz owned it. Neither of them really physically were in the premises a great deal of the time. And in this instance we are going to have the people who own it and have an invested interest are going to be the people actually running it. T~ey have been operating the place as managers for Mr. Hamouz for approximately the last 3 months .an~ they represented to me that they have been running a tight ship down there with regard to any violations or anything that went ondown there. Councilman Benninghoff - What about the sign on the cash register. Attorney Oates - That was approximately one year ago and there again I am not qualified to make any statements in regard to that. Councilman~Benninghoff - Who was responsible for that sign being there. Attorney Oates - I believe, Mr. Benninghoff, that that was aired in public before. I believe it was in magistrates court. But he represented to me that he was not responsible for bringing that sign in, is that right Mr. Keating. Mr. Keating - That is correct. It was one of the people working there who put the sign up and it will not happen again. Reg~!~K~eting ............... ~p~_~y ~oun~ ........... April 14, 1969 Councilman Benninghoff - Did it meet the sign ordinance. ~Pub Liq. Lic..~ Councilman Clymer made a motion to approve the change in ownership of the Jerome ~ B. Wheeler Public House to C & K Enterprises, Inc. Seconded by Councilman Benninghoff. Roll call vote - Councilmen Benninghoff aye; Bergmanaye; Clymer aye. Mayor Barnard opened the public hearingon a new application for beer, wine and spirituous liquor for House of Lum. Copies of all documents required by the City and House of Lum State were submitted to Council to review. Also a map prepared by the City Beer & Wine Lic. Engineering Department showing the present license holders in the City and this proposed application. Council reviewed the files. Gordon Forbes I am a s~toc'kholder and partner in the House of Lum. We have owned it since January 1st. We have run it for 3 months and I think successfully. I don't urge on you for a second that Aspen needs any new bars, but I think the addition of a Chinese Restaurant is s~m&thing that we are kind of proud of and it boils down to the fact that you can't expand or operate an evening restaurant unless you can dispense ~iquor. Many many requests for drinks and people have turned away. And a lot of people who have tried to smuggle liquor in-and t~he usual thing. Our plans are very modest we don't want s bar to be a bar we want to be able to give drinks to peopl~e who are eating only and the bar would close at the same time as the restaurant closed which is now 10:00 at night. There will be almost no sitting for the casuml d~inker. '.'This is not to make it sound more appetizing but we don't want anything like that because we are the managers, we run it personally, we have no bartenders, or waitresses no other help. We do expect to expand it if we can get a liquor license othe~rwise its pretty bleak future down there. We also expect to move in 2 or 3 years to a new location with a new building. I own two lots down below the church. It could conceivab~ly be the spot. The information is all in your files and there is a map. Councilman Bergman~--Where is this~again, Gorden, where you would like to move to. Gordon Forbes - The 2 lots which I have which are below I don't know his name, the milkman's house going down on the highway. I bought 2 in there which is a possible reserved site. Right~ now we arein a rented buiding belonging to Dottie Kelleher. We are under a lease system and she said that we could stay there ~ indefinitely. I did get the 2 lots just to have an option. -- Mayor Barnard I can understand your wish for this Gordon, it does add a lot to a food operation, to have liquor with the food. Councilman Clymer - Would you serve saki. Gordon Forbes - Yes, if the license is granted, we have a lot of requests for that. It is kind of a cross breed with Chinese food, to s~rve saki. We have been going for 2 years without a license and its just about a stand off as far~ as money goes. If they want to wait they want to have a drink, that is a big hang-up. Councilman Bergman - Going-back a little ways, we feel that Aspen should be the ~enter or the hub and I thi~k even winter it was proven on Highway 82 where the Villa is for instance at night when the skiers are coming in like from 6:30 to 8:30 if you watch the number of cars coming into Aspen. I think it has pretty well proven its point that I thin'k, without having tall buildings, I do think we are going to have to increase our services, I am for this application. Mayor Barnard~ Is there any more comments. Councilman Benninghoff - When your speaking of relationship of one to another, I think the point is quality because good restaurants are necessary in a community like this. Mayor Barnard - I think the most important thing here, John, is quality. We have had cases which the place gets started off and it seems to be downhill all the way. And these are the things which we should try to avoid. I notice there is almost inv~ribly a correlation between the amount of initial capital they start out with. Without~enough initial capital, its downhill all the way. Councilman Benninghoff - From what I read in this, there dosen't seem to be any lack of capital. Councilman Bergman How long have you been in business over there now. Gordon Forbes - We bought it from a doctor in Chicago on the first of January and he ran it spasmodically by coming back with a cook who ran it. Councilman Bergman moved to approve a beer, wine and spirituous liquor license for the House of Lum. Seconded by Councilman Benninghoff. 905 Regular Meeting Aspen City Council ~ April 14~ 1969 House of ~um Attorney Kern - I would like to make one inquiry. The lease is with Sam Lum has Beer & Wine that been assigned to you. ~orbon Forbes No, the lease has been assigned over, the lease has been signed with us to the corporation which is now. Dosen't it show there. Mayor Barnard No, Gordon, why don't you get for us because we can't find it the !i assignment of the lease. The one that I have here shows leasor Dorothy Kelleher, leasee Sam Lum. By law we have to have evidence of ownership or you have a right to possession by a lease or something lfke that. There must surely be some conveyance of the lease. Councilman Bergman moved to withdraw his motion, seconded by Coun ilman Benninghoff. Councilman Clymer moved to table this application until evidence of ~wnership or possession can be shown. Seconded by Councilman Bergman. Roll call vote - Councilmen Bergman aye; Benninghoff aye; Clymer aye. Mayor Barnard closed the public hearing. Mayor Barnard opened a public hearing on the application for a beer and wine license Garfu~kels Ii for Garfunkels. Copies of all documents required by the City and State were submitted Beer, Wine !] to Council for review. Also a map showing the existing outlets plus the new applications. Council ~eviewed the files. Sid Wheeler - I am Sid Wheeler and one of the stoc~kholders in the corporation. We have been in business for a year and one-half, without a license and have been operating successfully. The reason that we would lfke to have on is becsuse there is a tremendous demand for a bogtle of beer with a meal. We are asking for a beer and wine license because we also have a downstairs operation whichis roast beef dinner and wine would go very well with that. Also we don't want the 3.2 license, because we don't want to run into any problems with the young people. We have no intension of gding into this on a bar set up or anything its just a complement to the meal. I would like to say about our operation, since we have been in this business, we haven't had m~y trouble. The name is a folk singing name, I think some people associate us with the hippy bunch or something. The place I would say is 75% adult trade and, therefore, a corn beef sandwich or something of that order. The help, ~e~hRve~always tried to hire people who have been in town for 4 or 5 years plus we 'know who have good records. The place as far as constructual problems- Aspen Square - and a minor trash violation wehave been pretty clean. I don't ~know what i' else to say. Councilman Clymer - I even eat there. Sid Wheeler - Yes, Zeke eats ~here quite often. He hasn't asked for any beec with his lunch though. Councilman Benninghoff - It seems to me we have a report from the building inspector. Sid Wheeler - We did have some troulbe when we moved from our location in the old bowling alley location on sprinkler system, hood system, everything has been corrected to my 'knowledge. Councilman Clymer - What about these 3 items that the building inspector are they or will they be Sid Wheeler - They should have. Let me look at them. Well all of this is being worked on this~pring. There still doing.some construction over there. This is the first time I have seen this. I knew there were some things such as our hood system · hich were all corrected as soon as we were notified. Councilman Benninghoff - Are you intending to close down for any Sid Wheeler - We did close for ~ few days but we are back open now. I don't think there is anything here that would require our closing down. Councilman Benninghoff - You wouldn't mind if we tabled this till these things are corrected. Sid Wheeler No, I can understand that. Attorney Kern Sid, your a corporation? 906 Regular Meeting Aspen City Council April 14, 1969 Sid Wheeler - Yes Garfunkels Beer & Wine Attorney Kern - Thelease is in the name of two individuals. Sid Wheeler - Right Attorney Kern - Has that lease been assigned over to the corporation that is applying for this license. Sid Wheeler - I don't know why I assumed that the stoc~kholders were the same as the ones on the lease. The 2 are carrying the responsibilities. Attorney Kern - They are two different entities. Mayor Barnard - If the corporation is getting the license they are the ones who should have the lease. Sid Wheeler - That would be easy enough to do, the two of us would just have to sign a different form. Councilman Benninghoff moved to table this application until evidence of possession can be shown and the items listed by the building inspector are corrected. Seconded by Councilman Clymer.~ Roll call vote - Councilmen Clymer aye; Bergman aye; Benninghoff aye. The Shaft - Mr. Bruce Gillis and Architect Rob Roy were present and request permissior The Shaft from Council to build a trash enclosure in the sidewal~k area - City property, Mayor Trash Enclosure Barnard pointed out Planning and Zoning does not thin'kits a good idea to have the 10' set back in the alleys, should be in the front, feel that space for trash should be provided for inside the building. Administrator Wurl reported during spring clean up the alleys are just impossible to get cleaned up. Mr. Roy stated this would be a good idea for new buildings, but the old buildings are built from property line to property line. Councilman Benninghoff moved to deny the request for trash enclosure.
