Thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam

members
of
the
board
attorney
jeff
drago,
with
drago
and
toscano,
with
the
business
address
of
11
beacon
street.
I
also
have
the
manager
of
record
greg
klein
available
on
the
call
as
well
as
was
mentioned,
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
saunder,
and
we
are
seeking
to
acquire
an
in-holder
license
from
the
licensing
board
for
a
building
located
at
234
newberry
street
in
boston.
G
G
On
the
first
floor,
there
is
an
existing
restaurant
called
the
shake
shack,
that's
open,
till
10
pm,
and
that
will
be
made
available
to
the
patrons
of
the
hotel,
and
that
would
be
convenient.
We
would
work
with
our
residents
to
encourage
them
to
go
down
and
use
the
facility
as
well
for
food.
The
main
entrance
vestibule
and
a
private
lift
for
handicap.
Ada
accessibility
will
all
be
housed
on
the
first
floor.
This
is
a
boutique
hotel.
So
there
would
be
second
third
and
fourth
floor.
In
total,
there
would
be
12
rooms.
G
G
There
would
also
be
on
the
second
floor,
an
office
studio
space
for
management
where
they
could
be
housed
and
they
could
spend
the
night
with
a
small
area
for
them
to
have
storage
and
also
to
conduct
business
within
the
building.
The
facility
will
have
cameras
both
on
the
inside
and
the
outside,
and
private
security
that
would
be
checking
on
the
building
during
the
nighttime
hours.
G
Saunder
hospitality
is
a
worldwide
hospitality
company,
they
manage
50
hotels
around
the
world
and
they
do
have
one
locally
in
the
cambridge
area
that
they
manage
currently
right
now
they
also
have
a
24
7
365
days
a
year
call
center
for
any
issues
that
may
come
up.
They
have
a
full
staff
manager
that
would
be
on
call
and
would
be
on
site
in
the
daytime
hours
with
staff,
and
they
are
within
minutes
of
being
contacted
in
the
boston
area.
I
can
pause
now
and
answer
any
questions.
G
B
G
H
B
H
No,
it's
just
it's
there's
a
like
the
person
who
would
be
on
site
might
change,
but
there
would
be
somebody
there.
It's
you
know.
We
have
different
needs
for
different
buildings,
whether
it's
you
know
somebody
there
from
the
team
that
does
a
maintenance
call
or
somebody
from
housekeeping
or
a
manager.
You
know
we
have
somebody
who
would
likely
be
on
site
during
the
day.
H
Yeah,
so
if
you
were
to
rent
a
room,
you
would
get
a
like,
you
would
rent
a
room
through
expedia.com.
You
would
get
the
check-in
confirmation
after
you
got
that
you
would
then
be
asked
to
go
through
a
series
of
security
protocols.
So
the
first
thing
you
would
do
is
you
would
you
would
in
put
your
credit
card
information
and
that
would
be
verified
as
like
a
correct
credit
card,
then
the
second
thing
you
would
do
is
you
would
upload
your
photo
id
both
front
and
back
government
issued.
I
H
B
H
It's
all
done
through
the
camera
and
the
software
we
do
have
somebody
on
our
end.
That
is
looking
at
the
photo
to
connect
it
to
the
face,
and
then
the
person
would
get
a
code
that
would
work
at
the
front
door
and
would
work
at
their
unit
door.
That
would
only
be
associated
with
the
time
of
their
check-in.
B
H
Yeah,
so
we
would
have
somebody
on
site
like
it
wouldn't
be
the
type
of
thing
where
we
wouldn't
have
a
saunders
staff
member
there
for
days
on
end.
We
would
have
saunders
staff
member
there
every
single
day
the
the
security
would
be,
probably
trigger-based.
So
if
there
was
an
event
that
required
a
security
presence
to
be
brought
on
site.
That
would
happen
immediately.
I
live
in
the
boston
area
and
so
does
the
rest
of
the
13
teams.
So
we
would
be
brought
in
to
inspect
that
immediately.
H
K
H
L
D
A
M
O
O
O
The
configuration
of
the
property
is
that
there
are
seven
rooms
on
the
first
floor
and
two
bathrooms
and
a
kitchen
on
the
second
floor.
There
are
seven
bedrooms,
two
full
baths
and
a
kitchen,
and
on
the
top
floor
of
the
property,
there
are
four
rooms
and
an
office
and
a
activity
room
for
the
residents
of
the
house,
so
that
is
a
total
of
18
rooms,
five
full
baths
and
two
kitchens.
O
We
recently
conducted
an
ons
sponsored
abundant
meeting
on
september
22nd,
in
addition
to
the
extensive
community
review
process
that
we
undertook
as
part
of
our
zoning
board
of
appeal
proceeding,
and
there
was
no
opposition
from
the
community.
In
fact,
they
were
enthusiastic
with
the
renovations
that
have
been
conducted
to
the
property
and
the
way
this
house
has
been
run
for
many
many
years
with
that,
I
will
conclude
my
presentation
and
take
any
questions.

Good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
this
is
jason
gant
from
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
we'd
like
to
go
on
record
in
support
of
this
proposal
and
also
note
project
wright
has
gone
in
support
of
this
proposal
as
well,
and
you
all
should
have
that.
If
not,
I
can
definitely
make
sure
that
I
provide
it.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
A
T
T
So
we
bought
the
building.
We
immediately
began
the
sprinkler
system.
We
completed
that
sprinkler
system
and
the
new
water
main
was
completed.
Last
week.
The
boston,
water
and
sewer
took
about
five
months
to
do
so,
and
we
were
asked
to
renew
the
lodging
house
license
as
the
prior
license
had
completely
lapsed
and
been
ignored.
So
we
went
back
and
investigated
the
zoning
status.
The
building's
been
a
lodging
house
since
1942
the
there's
been
two
owners
since
1942
the
last
time.
T
It
was
formalized
was
in
1972
and
78
when
permits
were
pulled
that
stipulated
the
configuration
of
the
building,
which
remains
completely
unchanged
since
that
time
and
again
we're
really
here
to
rectify
neglect
of
the
former
owner
in
not
renewing
this
license.
Our
average
length
of
stay
is
very
lengthy.
We
have
some
residents
six
to
ten
years.
T
A

Yes,

clean

Thank

This

a

As
you
know,
you
approve
the

to
see
gk

when
it
went

We
realized

been

which
is

AC
AC
Okay,
I'm
sorry!
So
it's
just
a
change
of,
and
I
couldn't
do,
a
change
of
name
because
it
hadn't
been
approved
by

So
it's
an
amendment
to

to

huntington
avenue,
a
holder
of
a
retail
package
store
malt
and
wine
license,
has
petitioned
to
change
the
category
of
this
license
from
retail
package
store
wine
and
beverage
license
to
retail
package
store
all
alcoholic

scanlan.
A
AF
Good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
kristen
scanlon,
representing
the
licensee
signed
on
with
us
this
morning,
is
harry
patel,
who
is
the
owner
of
the
licensed
establishment
at
818
huntington
ave.
The
proposal
before
you
is
to
upgrade
the
existing
beer
and
wine
license
at
this
location
to
include
spirits
by
way
of
background.
This
market
has
been
here
for
decades
and
through
generations.
AF
As
far
as
public
need
is
concerned,
as
I
mentioned,
they
have
had
several
customers
asking
for
this
addition
to
their
license
and,
as
evidenced
by
the
200
plus
signatures
on
the
petition
that
were
submitted
to
the
board.
A
few
other
package
store
licenses
are
in
the
nearby
vicinity,
but
they're
over
a
quarter
mile
away.
I
think
they
measured
out
to
little
over
0.3
miles
near
brigham
circle,
but
none
of
those
offer
groceries
and
housewares
like
huntington
market
does.
AF
Additionally,
the
other
package
licenses
that
are
up
at
brigham
circle
are
on
the
other
side
of
the
street.
So
this
particular
market
is
really
a
great
asset
to
the
community
and
serves
a
true
community
purpose
and
they're
seeking
to
maintain
the
convenience
aspect
of
that.
To
this
point,
we
did
hold
in
a
butters
meeting
and
a
meeting
with
the
community
alliance
of
mission
hill.
Both
meetings
had
several
people
and
strong
support,
including
immediate
residential
and
business
developers,
with
comments
made
that
they've
been
going
to
this

There
are
a
few
concerns,
but
I've
received
a
major,
a
number
of
letters
of
support
from
the
community
which
I'll
be
happy
to
forward
to
the
board.
If
you
haven't
received
any
of
those
and
like
attorney
scanlon
mentioned,
they
also
received
a
vote
of
support
from
the
community
alliance
of
mission

so
our
office
would
like
to
go
on
record
and
support.
Thank
you.
Thanks,

AB
Yeah
go
ahead,
mr
awesome,
I'm
just
a
patron
of
the
store,
but
I've
been
going
there
for
like
to
his
brother's
store
for
a
couple
years,
and
harry
was
always
a
great
man
like
you
come
in
the
store,
he
smiles
right
away
and
it's
just
a
great
store
to
go
to
it's
a
really
good
vibe
and,
like
the
lawyer
person
before
me
said,
like
you
really
feel
at
home
there,
and
you
really
do
it's
like
a
really
good
story.
I
would
say.
A
D
X
Go
ahead,
yes,
I'd
like
to
support
harry
and
his
wish
to
upgrade
his
license.
I
mean
I've
been
living
here
for
the
better
part
of
five
years
and
I
think
it's
important
for
the
stores,
the
local
stores
to
to
improve
as
much
as
they
can
and
upgrade,
but
I
think
and
they're
very
good
with
their
security.
I've
been

twice,
I'm

You
may
now
go
ahead.
AH
AH
The
first
application
is
to
remove
this
space,
that's
known
as
the
connection
lounge,
which
was
serviced
and
used
by
this
champion's
restaurant
when
it
when
it
was
run
by
the
hotel,
originally
the
the
application
or
the
the
the
development
of
this
yarn
house
in
the
marriott
it
was.
You
know
there
was
some
pressure
time
pressure
because
the
the
the
the
marathon
was
coming
to
boston
and
they
wanted
to
be
open
for
that.
AH
Both
the
hotel
and
yard
house,
so
they
largely
went
into
the
space
that
that
champions
and
and
went
in
as
champions
you
know
had
had
it.
They
didn't
really
do
the
the
development
to
turn
it
completely
into
a
yard
house
concept.
So
that's
phase
two,
because
it's
a
little
more
involved.
It
has
to
go
through
inspectional
services
and
it's
you
know
it's.
It's
probably
gonna
take
you
know
six
to
nine
months.
AH
So
that's
what
we're
here
for
now,
as
part
of
it,
they
want
to
add
the
connection
lounge
space,
which
is
immediately
adjacent
to
what
is
now
the
yard
house
space.
In
order
for
that
to
work
to
yard
house,
they
had
to
do
some
construction,
there's
a
half
wall
along
the
circular
dining
area
and
they
needed
to
open
that
up
and
move
the
entrance
way
there
so
that
to
connect
the
connection
lounge
and
and
the
the
circular
dining
area
in
in
connection
with
that.
AH
Also
they
are
remodeling
the
interior
space
right
now,
it's
it's.
If
you
look
at
the
old
plan,
it's
partitioned
into
three
separate
rooms,
three
separate
dining
areas
over
the
course
of
the
next
several
months,
they'll
be
taking
at
night,
taking
down
the
walls
in
there
to
make
it
one
open
space
and
one
open
dining
area,
there's
also
an
expansion
to
the
bar,
which
currently
seats
14,
and
there
it's
going
to
be
slightly
bigger
to
seat
20..
AH
AH
So
we're
here
to
answer
any
questions
you
might
have
the
the
opening
and
and
the
event
for
the
marathon
did,
the
hotel
did
really
well.
It
was
one
of
the
first
times
that
they
were
completely
you
know,
occupied
and,
and
the
art
house
did
very
well
as
well.
So
it
was
a
success
in
that
in
that
regard.
So
this
is
phase
two
and
they'll
probably
be
done
in
about
six
to
nine
months.
Thank
you.

very
much
here
representing

Okay,
the
application
before
use
for
a
transfer
of
a
license
from
back
bay
to
this
four
point:
location,
44,
thompson
place
by
the
way
of
background.
This
is
a
concept
that
was
originally
born
in
connecticut.
AF
They
currently
have
five
locations
and
they're
excited
to
add
boston
and
brookline,
which
was
recently
approved
as
their
first
forays
into
massachusetts.
The
concept
is
a
southeast
asian
comfort,
food
concept,
specializing
in
japanese
ramen
and
vietnamese
pho.
The
owners
tony
and
richard
are
two
seasoned
and
experienced
restauranteurs.
They
come
from
a
family
of
restaurateurs
and
own,
a
total
of
nine
restaurants
between
them.
They
are
respectively.
Sons
of
vietnamese
and
latino
immigrants.
AF
Mecca
actually
is
vietnamese
for
mom
and
pop,
and
they
specialize
in
these
broth-based
noodle
dishes
that
are
vietnamese
and
japanese
style.
They
also
serve
other
street
foods
from
those
cuisine
traditions.
Like
bubble,
tea,
bow
egg
rolls
and
dumplings
it's
definitely
a
family
restaurant
where
parents
and
kids
can
enjoy
noodles
paired
with
a
glass
of
wine
at
an
affordable
price
point
with
19
being
the
average
price.
AF
AF
AF
As
far
as
public
need
is
concerned
for
this
location,
as
I
previously
indicated,
it
is
a
unique
southeast
asian
concept
that
doesn't
currently
exist
in
the
neighborhood
they're
filling
a
vacant
storefront
creating
jobs
in
the
area,
and
this
is
really
more
of
an
affordable
restaurant
for
the
surrounding
area
and
other
offerings
within
the
neighborhood
for
the
owners
and
what
their
vision
is
for
expanding.
Mecha
they
want
to
definitely
be
in
a
community-based
city
focused
on
community
action,
and
their
mission
is
really
to
take
taste
and
tradition
and
transform
it
into
pride
and
progress.
AF
Through
interpretations
of
southeast
asian
comfort,
food
in
a
high
energy,
fun,
communal
environment,
we
did
meet
with
the.
As
far
as
community
outreach
is
concerned.
We
did
meet
with
the
four
point,
neighborhood
association
back
earlier
this
summer,
who
was
supportive
of
the
concept
itself,
but
I
know
they
had
a
concern
about
the
proposed
12
30
closing
hour,
as
previously
indicated
mecca
is
seeking
the
ability
to
serve
food
a
little
bit
later,
but
depending
on
demand
in
the
neighborhood
may
close
earlier
in
the
week.
AF
Trillium's
capacity
is
nearly
four
times
that
proposed
for
mecha.
The
draw
of
visitors
is
predominantly
alcohol
based
on
its
popular
craft
brews
and
also
has
an
outdoor
patio
component
with
a
live
entertainment
component.
Mecha
is
ultimately
a
noodle
house,
with
roughly
15
of
sales
attributed
to
alcohol
sales
with
no
entertainment
or
outdoor
component,
and
additionally,
they
have
the
smallest
capacity
and
earliest
closing
hour
proposed
in
the
neighborhood
besides
trillium.
So
under
the
circumstances
we
believe
the
closing
hour
requested
is
reasonable.

madam

with
the

testify
on
behalf
of
my
colleague
dylan
our
office
like
to
go
on
record
in
support
of
this
proposal
and,
like
attorney
scanlan
mentioned,
they
met
with
the
fort
point.
Neighborhood
association
and
you
know,
tried
to
address
the
little
concerns
that
that
group
raised.
So
I
obviously
like
to
go
on
record
and
support.
Thank
you.

One

the
chair
members
of

from
councillor
fling's
office,
please
know
councillor
flint
remains
generally
supportive
of
the
project.
However
neighbors
and
the
four-point
neighborhood
association
have
been
unable
to
come
to
an
agreement
with
the
proponent
of
on
the
closing
time.
The
counselor
will
respectfully
request
that
they
will
be
deferred
to
provide
more
time
for
their
neighbors
and
proponents
to
come
to
a
good
faith
compromise
on
this
outstanding
issue.
Thank
you.

We
represent
the
residents
of
the
south
boston,
waterfront
and
we'd
like
to
go
on
record
as
opposed
to
the
application,
as
it's
currently
submitted,
as
mentioned
the
proponent
presented
to
our
neighbors
in
our
june
29th
neighborhood
meeting
we're
not
aware
of
of
any

occurring
and,
and
it
should
be
noted
that
ons
was
not
able
to
attend
that
particular
june
meeting
in
that
meeting.
In
subsequent
following
correspondence
with
the
applicant,
we
expressed
concern
over
the
proposed
closing
hours.
AK
We
requested
the
closing
hours
be
aligned
with
other
establishments,
particularly
on
thompson
place
within
11
pm,
closing
time,
at
least
for
the
first
year.
We
also
raised
some
concerns
on
curbside
management,
particularly
with
food
delivery.
Pickups
the
proposed
location
is
adjacent
to
a
trader
joe's
grocery
store
and
it,
as
you
could
well
imagine,
the
number
of
vehicles
that
come
and
go
from
that
location
can
be
pretty
high,
especially
around
the
six
pm
time
frame.
We
do
believe,
though,
that
that
situation
can
be
mitigated
with
appropriate
trips
on
management
practices.

I'm
actually
a

we

The
the
only

As

I
to

questions
the

may
have.
Thank
you.
B
AA
So
we
want
to
really
focus
on
vietnamese
types
of
alcohol.
Vietnam
has
a
very
distinguished,
I
would
say,
bar
menu,
so
I
want
to
integrate,
probably
lychee.
I
want
to
integrate
a
lot
of
those
dragon
fruit,
flavors,
obviously
in
boston.
You
know
you
have
lounges,
you
have
different
type
of
european
bars,
but
I
think
vietnamese
more
very
southeast
asian
cuisine,
mixed
with
drinks,
are
very
very.
What
is
the
words
underserved.
B
AB
A
L
Yes,
good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
molly
here
from
mayor's
office
neighborhood
services,
our
office
would
like
to
go
on
record
in
support
of
this
proposal.
We
hosted
a
butters
meeting
on
november
15th
and
no
concerns
are
really
raised
at
that
meeting,
and
I
know
that
the
applicant
has
spoken
with
the
fenway
civic
association,
so
we
just
asked
that
they
continue
to
work
with
them
going
forward
and
listen
to
the
community
if
they
have
any
questions.
Thank
you.
A
AM
Good
morning
again,
yeah
alex
suchnets
with
the
fenway
civic
association
just
want
to
go
on
record
to
support
this
effort.
Vanessa
has
been
an
exemplary
neighbor
ever
since
they
they
took
over
the
space
and,
as
phil
mentioned,
you
know,
their
cuisine
and
the
the
type
of
food
that
they're
looking
to
serve
is
indeed
very
underserved
in
this
community.
So
it's
definitely
welcome.
In
the
neighborhood
they've
been
a
pleasure
to
work
with.
AM
We
did
discuss
with
them
about
you
know,
making
sure
that
they
comply
with
the
regulations
to
have
a
a
separate
patio
area.
That
would
be,
you
know,
closed
off
to
make
sure
the
alcohol
doesn't,
you
know,
get
out
into
the
to
the
area.
Additionally,
venison
also
agreed
to
continue
upholding
their
commitment
to
not
have
amplified
outdoor
music
on
their
outdoor
space,
which
is
a
strong
position
for
federal
civic
association.
AM
It's
certainly
worth
noting
that
other
directly
budding
restaurants
do
also
have
beer
and
wine
and
malt
licenses,
so
while
a
liquor
license
might
be
a
little
bit
different,
it's
certainly
not
un.
You
know
unexpected
in
that
area.
It's
called
restaurant
row
there,
so
we
we
do
support
finisa
in
this
effort.
Thanks.

What
mr
heistenage
is
looking
to
do
is
to
make
a
north
end
style.
Coffee
shop,
serving
alcohol
like
the
north
end,
say,
for
example,
the
cafe
victoria
or
the
cafe
paradiso.
There
is
nothing
like
it
along
west
broadway
and
we
would
we
would
submit
even
east
broadway.
Mr
heisnich
for
many
years,
was
the
owner
of
the
al
street
diner,
which
was
the
holder
of
a
beer
and
wine
license.
He
was
the
manager
of
record
of
the
l
street
diner
and
throughout
his
tenure
there
never
had
one
violation.
V
He
is
a
citizen
and
a
resident
of
the
commonwealth
of
massachusetts.
We've
met
with,
we
had
a
butters
meeting
and
we
met
with
the
saint
vincent's
neighborhood
association.
At
the
time,
it
was
your
executive
committee
to
propose
this
idea,
because
what
we
want
to
do,
we
want
to
go
towards
the
more
mature
people
in
the
neighborhood.
This
is
the
type
of
place
that
we
want
people
to
come
to
for,
say
dessert
after
dinner
or
after
you've
done
christmas
shopping
to
come
and
sit
and
have
a
glass
of
wine
in
the
afternoon.
V
We're
not
going
towards
the
younger
set
we're
actually
looking
to
get
the
people
that
live
around
us
to
come
in
have
coffees
what
mr
heiseniach
is
prepared
to
do.
Besides
do
some
more
cosmetics,
but
we've
all
he's
also
brought
in
a
new
pastry
chef
from
mike's
pastry
in
the
north
and
we'll
be
making
pastries,
and
he
will
be
teaching
mr
heisenich's
employees
to
make
the
pastries
on
site
all
the
pastries
will
be
made
on
site.
So
what
we're?
V
As
I
said,
what
we're
looking
to
do
is
to
serve
our
immediate
area,
serve
the
neighbors
there
and
give
them
something
that
there's
that's
not
there
in
the
neighborhood
right
now,
which
is
a
an
upscale
coffee
shop.
Basically,
that
serves
alcoholic
beverages,
as
I
believe
that
we
have
people
here
at
support
for
us
and
we
can
answer
any
questions
of
of
the
board
and,
as
I
said,
mr
mr
heisnich
has
real
experience
in
in
this
industry
already
and
he's
looking
to
take
this
and
move
it
up
to
the
next
level.
For
the
neighborhood.
B
O

meeting
held

no
real
concerns
raised
by

and
they
met
with

You
get
a

which
they're

it's
not
necessarily

benefit
for
new
residents
in
the
area
as
well
as
the
surrounding
community
and,
additionally,
there's
no
barbecue
restaurant
concepts
in
the
neighborhood,
which
this
is
will
certainly
add
a
noteworthy
new
restaurant
concept
to
the
area.
That's
both
approachable
and
affordable
and,
of
course,
goes
without
saying
that
they'll
be
creating
jobs
for
east
boston
residents
and
outside
of
east
boston
as
well
as
far
as
community
outreach
is
concerned.
AF
We
did
hold
an
abutters
meeting
which
was
lightly
attended
but
attended
with
supporters,
along
with
a
meeting
with
the
maverick
central
neighborhood
association,
which
I
know
they
submitted
a
letter
in
support
of
the
concept
as
well.
A
spring
2022
opening
is
anticipated
and,
with
that
being
said,
happen
to
answer
any
questions
or
concerns,
the
board
might
have.

Yes,
good
morning,
madam
chamber
molly
here
from
the
office
of
neighborhood
services,
like
attorneys
scanlon
mentioned,
there
was
no
butters
meeting
held
on
september
21st
with
support
from
abutters
and
also
they
received
support
from
the
maverick
I
apologize
mavericks,
central
neighborhood
association.
So
our
office
would
like
to
go
on
record
and
support
as
well.
Thank
you.
Q
L
A
Board
will
take
this
under
advisement.
Thank
you
and
now

AF
I
made
the
comment
about
larger
because
it's
still
a
quite
a
small
shop.
It's
only
about
835
square
feet
and
their
existing
hours
of
operation
are
10,
am
to
7
pm,
which
will
not
change
as
far
as
public
need
is
concerned.
This
is
a
totally
unique
concept,
there's
nothing
like
it
in
the
neighborhood
or
frankly,
that
we're
aware
of
anywhere
in
boston.
AF
Their
current
operations
offer
a
retail
store
for
fresh
and
dried
flowers
and
cocktail
supplies
mixers,
vintage
glassware
bar
equipment,
pretty
much
everything,
obviously,
but
the
alcohol.
They
also
offer
creative
workshops,
which
include
floral,
arranging
cocktail,
making
calligraphy
and
pottery
just
to
name
a
few.
AF
They
enjoy
hosting
brand
pop-ups
in
their
shop
for
new
and
local
brands
of
items
that
they
carry
in
their
store
and
their
goal
is
really
to
create
an
environment.
That's
experiential
for
their
visitors,
where
people
can
find
high
quality
wines,
beer
and
sake
at
a
variety
of
price
points,
along
with
all
the
other
unique
retail
offerings
that
they
have
in
the
store
they
with
their
business.
AF
With
this
request,
and
with
the
existing
nature
of
their
business,
they
want
the
community
to
feel
their
passion
for
hospitality
and
would
like
to
have
the
opportunity
and
ability
excuse
me
to
offer
people
ways
well
way,
while
offering
perhaps
a
new
hobby
or
interest
to
some
people
along
the
way.
With
that
being
said,
I
would
hope
the
board
agrees
that
this
particular
and
unique
concept
really
stands
out
from
a
traditional
package
store,
despite
the
fact
that
the
type
of
licensure
that
they
seek
is
the
same.
AF
As
far
as
community
outreach
is
concerned,
crystal
and
colleen
have
conducted
extensive
outreach
in
the
neighborhood
they've
received
several
letters
of
support
from
immediate
abutters,
including
residents
and
business
owners
which
were
sent
to
the
board,
and
we
had
several
emails
in
communication
with
the
st
vincent's
neighborhood
association
since
june.
But
I've
been
told
now
they're
requesting
a
meeting
to
occur
next
tuesday.
So
we're
amenable
to
deferral
of
the
vote
until
next
week
after
that
meeting
happens
just
to
ensure
that
we're
addressing
any
last
lingering
questions
or
concerns
that
the
community
might
have.
AF
This
would
be
a
first
meeting,
so
I
from
communications
with
ons
we
were
directed
to
reach
out
to
them,
had
a
couple
emails
going
back
and
forth
since
june,
but
a
meeting
was
never
requested
or
scheduled,
but
there
has
now
been
one
scheduled
in
light
of
the
hearing
today.
So
we're
happy
to
we
wanted
to,
with
the
hearing
scheduled,
go
forward
with
the
presentation
to
kind
of
nip
any
additional
delay
in
the
bud.

Yes,
good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
molly
griffin
with
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
speaking
on
behalf
of
my
colleague
dillon,
our
office
would
like
to
go
on
record
in
support
of
this
proposal,
but,
like
attorney
scanlan
just
mentioned,
we
request
that
the
applicant
works
with
the
saint
vincent
neighborhood
association,
going
forward
to
address
any
concerns
or
questions,
but
our
office
would
like
to
go
on
record
and
support.
Thank
you.

Good
morning,
madam
of
the
share
members
of
the
board
anna
carleron
from
councillor
flynn's
office,
the
council
would
like
to
respectfully
request
a
deferral
of
the
vote
on
this
matter
due
to
concern
some
public
process.
We've
heard
from
neighbors
from
the
same
business
lower
end
neighborhood
association
with
concerns
about
another
package
stores
in
this
area,
as
well
as
other
neighbors
who
have
expressed
support
for
the
concept.
However,
in
the
final
analysis,
there
was
no
community
meeting
and
public
process
is
critical
for
the
counselor.
AI
AF

Thank
you

we
will
now
go
back

do
