Commission approves liquor-license transfer for Kaishin Izakaya at 176 S. Old Woodward
Summary
The commission approved a special land use amendment and authorized local approval of a class C and SDM liquor-license transfer from Sushi Japan Inc. to Gold Coin Inc. (d/b/a Kaishin Izakaya). The applicant said no exterior changes are planned; the commission approved the request by roll call during a public hearing.
The City Commission approved a special land use amendment and authorized local approval for transfer of the class C (on-premises) and SDM (carryout) liquor licenses for 176 South Old Woodward, permitting ownership to transfer from Sushi Japan Inc. to Gold Coin Inc., which intends to operate as Kaishin Izakaya.
Planning Director Nick Dupuy summarized the joint planning and police review and said the proposed tenant will not change exterior elements, floor plans or outdoor-dining allocations that are material to the bistro classification. Applicant representatives (attorney David Draper and owner Woo Jin Lee) described the proposed menu (sushi, sashimi, ramen, yakitori and sake) and said they had paid fees and completed the required applications.
No members of the public asked questions during the hearing. The commission moved and approved the resolution allowing the clerk to sign the Michigan Liquor Control Commission local-approval notice and to update the city’s special land use permit with the new owner.
