Our request is for a zoning change from CS-V-NP (General Commercial Services – Vertical Mixed Use – Neighborhood Plan) to CS-1-V-CO-NP (Commercial Liquor Sales – Vertical Mixed Use – Conditional Overlay – Neighborhood Plan) for a footprint area of 856 square feet. This zoning adjustment is necessary to allow for the sale of liquor for off-premise consumption only. Goodnight Cowboy is committed to being a responsible and community-oriented business. We want to clarify that our intent is solely to operate as a liquor package store; we have no interest in operating as an adult lounge or bar. Our goal is to provide a thoughtfully curated selection of spirits in a welcoming retail environment while respecting the character of the neighborhood and adhering to all regulatory requirements. We appreciate your consideration of this request and welcome the opportunity to discuss any questions or concerns the committee may have. Please let me know if any additional information is required. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to your response and to working with the City of Austin to bring Goodnight Cowboy to life in a way that aligns with both community values and city planning objectives. Sincerely, Adam Rios Co-Founder & Owner Goodnight Cowboy adam@goodnightcowboyliquors.com 512-508-9282 12 C14-2025-0021 - Goodnight Cowboy; District 19 of 11 Outlook C14-2025-0021 proposed zoning change From Griffith, Caitlin Date Fri 2/21/2025 3:45 PM To Tomko, Jonathan You don't often get email from . Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution Hi Jonathan, I just received notice that there is a proposed zoning change for the case C14-2025-0021 off Manor Rd for what look to be a plan for a liquor store. I see that the public notice hasn't been scheduled yet, but I just wanted to reach out directly (in case I can't make it to the public hearing) to say that I am against this zoning change. My first concern is safety. This neighborhood experiences a high density of people experiencing homelessness. I particularly notice many of these folks walking up and down our street (Manorwood Rd) already. They sometimes steal my packages, which is generally uncool, but it is what it is. My nieghbors experience similar occurences, so much so that they have installed security cameras and lights to thwart these attempts. While there isn't anything wrong with these folks being in the area (besides the fact that they are unhoused and I wish they had more services available to them), I feel that adding a liquor store nearby to the mix would make my family, myself, and likely my neighbors feel more unsafe. My next concern is redundancy. There are plenty of bars along this particular area of Manor Rd already - Oddwood Brewing, Batch, and Red Bud Cafe. There are also nearby liquor stores off 12th St and Airport and in Mueller. I don't feel that another liquor store at the outskirts of our neighborhood would benefit this community more than another store or service might. I believe that the services that would benefit this neighborhood the most won't require a zoning change. In conclusion, I do not feel that the members of this neighborhood would be the primary clientele of the liquor store. I feel that another business or service in the area would be a better fit for our community. Therefore, I am against changing the zoning for the purposes of this liquor store. Thanks for all you do! Looking forward to hearing more about this case.
