Trophy Club Commission reviews Rosati's Pizza alcohol permit request

The Planning and Zoning Commission of Trophy Club, Texas, convened on April 3, 2025, to discuss several key agenda items, with a primary focus on a specific use permit request for Rosati's Pizza Restaurant. The meeting began promptly at 6 PM, allowing for public comments, although no residents signed up to speak.

The main topic of discussion was case SUP25002, which involved a request from Synergy Capital Ventures LLC on behalf of Rosati's Pizza for permission to sell alcoholic beverages for on-premise consumption at their location on State Highway 114. The staff report, presented by Matt, highlighted that the request was largely procedural due to a change in ownership. According to local ordinance, any change in ownership necessitates a new specific use permit, even if the business remains the same.

Matt noted that the process for obtaining the new permit typically takes around 40 days, which can lead to interruptions in alcohol sales during the transition. He mentioned that the commission is considering revising this requirement to prevent future disruptions. Chief Arata reviewed the application and approved it, confirming that the restaurant's location complies with distance regulations from churches and schools.

The commission unanimously recommended approval of the permit, with no opposition from the public. The meeting concluded with a consensus on the need for potential changes to streamline the permit process in the future. This decision marks a significant step for Rosati's Pizza as it prepares to continue serving its customers with alcoholic beverage options.
