Where it stands
The City approved a Conditional Use Permit for the market and gas station at 3377 Sandrock Rd. A Conditional Use Permit allows a use only under conditions the City sets. This one lets the 1,531-square-foot store sell beer, wine and spirits to take away (a Type 21 license). The owner and applicant is Murad Enterprises, LLC. The permit does not include any building changes.
The police supported the permit and recommended conditions. Sales are allowed only from 6 a.m. to midnight. Video must be kept for at least 30 days. Litter and graffiti must be removed promptly. Staff must be trained on alcohol rules.
City staff found no homes within 100 feet, and no schools, parks or other sensitive uses within 600 feet. They found crime in the census tract was below the citywide average.
The Hearing Officer approved it on consent, as a routine item. The owner and a representative spoke in favor.
The state issued the Type 21 license on July 6, 2026, and it is active. Under the license, sales are limited to 6 a.m. to midnight, beer is sold only in multi-packs, and spirits can't be sold in bottles smaller than 375 ml.
