Local Licensing Authority finds probable cause in Angelo’s Taverna case; show‑cause hearing set for Dec. 10
The Littleton Local Licensing Authority voted unanimously to find probable cause that Angelo’s Taverna and Carboy Winery LLC d/b/a Angelo’s Taverna and Carboy Winery, at 6881 and 6885 South Santa Fe Drive, Littleton, violated the Colorado liquor code and set a show‑cause hearing for Dec. 10, 2025.

Chair Ravindran opened the item, noted members had reviewed the attachments and police report, and asked for a motion. Commissioner (Mover) said, “I moved to find that there is probable cause to believe that Angelo's Taverna and Carboy Winery LLC, d b a, Angelo's Taverna and Carboy Winery, 6881 And 6885 South Santa Fe Drive, Littleton, Colorado on 07/19/2025 did violate the Colorado liquor code,” and moved that a public hearing be set for Dec. 10, 2025. Commissioner (Second) seconded the motion. The commission voted 5–0 in favor.

The motion also directs that notice of the findings and the show‑cause hearing be forwarded and served on the licensee “in accordance with the provisions of state law,” and that a preliminary hearing be set for Nov. 12, 2025, “for the purpose of considering a possible stipulation, if any, between the licensee and the city of Littleton.” City staff confirmed there was no additional information beyond the police report in the record.

This action is procedural: the commission determined probable cause exists to proceed to a hearing; it did not impose any suspension or revocation at the meeting. The commission’s formal vote was to send the matter to a public show‑cause hearing where the licensee may appear and present a defense or seek a stipulation with the city.

Next procedural steps are the Nov. 12, 2025 preliminary hearing to consider a stipulation if one is offered, and the Dec. 10, 2025 show‑cause hearing if necessary. The commission’s clerk and staff will serve notice per state law.
