B. Refer the application to the Department of Community Development who shall determine if the location of the licensee’s business complies with the City’s land use requirements.

C. Determine if the licensee has met the criterion for an unfavorable recommendation in accordance with AMC 6.32.067.

D. Report to the City council as to the filing of the application and prepare sufficient documentation and/or findings to support an unfavorable recommendation to the OLCC if there is a basis for such recommendation.

E. Mail a letter or personally contact the applicant if an unfavorable recommendation will be made to the City Council.

F. Make a recommendation and place the license on the consent agenda at the next regular council meeting.

G. After the recommendation is approved by the City Council, forward the recommendation and any necessary supporting documentation to the OLCC.
