FINDINGS AND RESOLUTION
RE: FINDINGS AND RESOLUTION CONCERNING APPLICATION OF RJML, LLC,DBA
EL REVENTON NIGHT CLUB, FOR TAVERN LIQUOR LICENSE
The application of RJML, LLC, dba E Revanton Night Club, 13015 Weld County
Road 18,Fort Lupton, Colorado 80621, for a Tavern Liquor Licence, came on for hearing on
the 11th day of February, 2002. at 9:00 a.m.,and the Board of County Commissioners of Weld
County, Colorado, having hard the testimony and evidence adduced at said hearing, having
considered the testimony, evidence and remonstrances filed with said Board, and having
carefully weighed the same, now makes the following findings:
1. The Board finds that the reasonable requirements of the neighborhood do not
justify approval.
2. Although the good character of the applicant is not questioned, the Board finds
that his reputation has suffered through the revocation of a previous license in
the Town of Platteville, Stipulations and Agreements required by the Town of
Deoono and the City of Greeley, and frequent intervention of the Weld County
Sheriffs Office when Mr. Rodriguez managed a similar establishment currently
known as Club Romance.
3. The Board finds that the number, type, and availability of alcohol beverage
outlets located in or near the neighborhood under consideration do not justify
approval.
4. The Board finds that the issuance of such license would add to an undue
concentration of the same class of license in the neighborhood and, as a result,
require the use of additional law enforcement resources which would not be
absorbed into the current staffing levels of the Weld County Sheriffs Office and
the Fort Lupton Police Department and, in some Instances, may result In leaving
the City of Fort Lupton unprotected.
