Proposed 'Golden Crispy Chicken' seeks $30k–$50k; committee recommends up to $30,000 for equipment
Summary
A pair seeking to open Golden Crispy Chicken asked the Georgetown Business & TIF District Committee for $30,000–$50,000 to help launch their family restaurant. The committee recommended the full council approve up to $30,000 to buy kitchen equipment; no formal council vote is recorded in these minutes.
Ashley Murphy presented a business plan for Golden Crispy Chicken to the Georgetown Business & TIF District Committee on Oct. 20, 2025, outlining a menu of chicken, sandwiches, wraps and sides and plans for dine‑in, takeout and delivery service. Murphy said the venture would operate under King of Diamonds LLC, use local suppliers and rely on a family recipe tied to an established restaurant in Tennessee.
Murphy told the committee the owners are seeking $30,000 to $50,000 in committee assistance toward startup costs they estimated at $100,000 to $150,000 and that they hope to open in February or March. The minutes also record a comment attributed to “Mr. Murphy” that the venture would be “better with help.”
The Business & TIF District Committee recorded a recommendation to the full Georgetown City Council to purchase kitchen equipment for Golden Crispy Chicken, up to $30,000. The minutes do not show a council vote on that recommendation; they record only the committee recommendation.
The committee adjourned at 6:46 p.m. after a motion by Alder Curt Gordon and a second by Alder Jack Morrison. The minutes list “Action Taken: Approved” in connection with adjournment.
