V
Good
morning,
members
of
the
board-
I
am
representing
finance
melchior
restaurant
group
llc
for
the
two
matters
mentioned.
One
is
the
change
of
manager
we
would
have
with
us
today.
Courtney
hills,
I
believe,
is
on
our
zoom,
who
will
be
the
new
manager
so
I'll
address
that
first
courtney
has
been
approved
in
the
past
as
a
manager
of
record
for
work
in
boston,
and
that's
been
at
the
yacht
house
in
the
fenway
district,
where
she
spent
the
last
nine
years.
V
She
also
has
an
extensive
academic
career.
She
has
a
baa
in
culinary
arts
and
hospitality
management,
as
well
as
an
mba
in
hospitality
management,
she's
coming
on
as
a
replacement
manager,
the
restaurant
closed
in
november,
after
being
open
for
only
four
occasions
since
colbert
started
and
we've
been
without
the
manager.
V
The
name
moo
that
you
should
be
familiar
with
from
the
hotel
at
15
beacon
is
licensing
the
name
to
us
until
such
time,
which
will
take
place
after
the
first
the
year
when
we
will
create
a
new
entity
at
that
time.
Paul
royf
and
jamie
mamo,
who
are
the
principals
in
mu
at
15
beacon,
will
be
part
of
a
new
entity
that
will
be
created
with
seth
greenberg
to
operate
this
restaurant.
V
In
the
interim,
we
are
planning
an
opening
in
september
for
a
break-in
period
with
courtney
managing
the
restaurant.
It
will
be
extremely
similar
to
moo
at
15
beacon,
meaning
the
same
menu
to
somewhat
of
a
limited
stage
at
the
beginning,
and
we
will
be
serving
lunch
and
dinner,
but
we
will
not
have
lunch
service
until
after
the
first
year.
B

Good
morning,
members
of
the
boy,
anna
calderon
from
councillor
fling's
office
at
this
moment,
would
like
to
ask
for
a
referral
so
that
the
neighborhoods,
the
neighbors
from
the
four
point,
neighborhood
association
and
councilor
fling-
can
meet
with
the
proponent
on
this
project
to
discuss
public
safety
and
quality
of
life
issues.
Thank
you.
A
And
for
the
record,
what
is
before
the
board
today
is
a
strict
manager
of
record
change
and
a
dba
change
that
does
not
necessitate
public
input.
As
attorney
ferullo
noted,
there
is
a
forthcoming
transfer,
so
we
will
defer
to
the
to
the
board
on
the
dba
and
the
manager
of
record
and
allow
attorney
for
low
and
and
the
applicant
to
work
with
the
community,
and
so,
if
there's
anyone
who
has
specific
testimony
on
the
manager
of

and
her
qualifications

Yes
ma'am,
she
remembers
the
board
lisa
hi
with
the
mayor's
office
of
naval
services.
They
met
with
the
local
civic
associations,
and
one
of
the
major
concerns
raised
was
the
hours
of
operation,
which
was
the
3
a.m
closing
time,
but
the
applicant
has
agreed
to
a
2
a.m.
Closing
hour
and
alcohol
sale
is
terminating
at
1
a.m.
So
therefore,
the
mayor's
office
would
like
to
go
in
record
and
support
and
ask
that
the
applicant
continues
dialogue
with
the
neighborhood.
Thank
you.
W
Good
morning
modern
relationship,
members
of
the
board-
and
I
called
it
on
some
counselor
fleeing's
office.
The
couple
would
like
to
go
record
in
support
and
ask
the
proponent
to
work
closely
closely
with
neighbors
and
the
neighborhood
association
to
compromise
together
in
the
closing
hour.
It
is
my
understanding
that
they
went
down
to
2am,
but
the
neighborhood
three,
the
neighbors
are
asking
for
a
12
am
closing
hour
and
we
just
wanted
to
bring
that
into
the
board's
attention.
A
And
this
hung-
and
this
might
be
a
confirmation
for
your
cousin,
but
you
have
agreed
to
a
one
day-
a
2
a.m,
close
with
alcohol
sales
ceasing
at
1
am
yes,
okay,
thank
you.
Are
there
any
other
individuals
who
wish
to
testify
regarding
this
matter,
seeing
none?
We
will
take
this
matter
under
advisement,
but
please,
someone
from
our
office
will
also
reach
out
to
make
sure
that
we
can

I
All
right,
thank
you
good
morning,
madam
chair
commissioners,
andrew
upton,
for
the
applicant.
What
we
have
here
is
a
corporate
corp
transfer.
Mr
nicholson
is
purchasing
the
red
hat
on
beacon
hill.
He
has
been
a
manager
before
he
was
the
manager
at
game
on.
He
was
also
the
manager
of
record
at
finn,
mccool's
approved
twice
by
this
board
and
the
aabcc,
and
he
said
no
problems.
He
will
run
it.
I
He
will
own
it,
he
will
manage
it
and
basically,
what
is
happening
is
the
previous
owner
of
the
the
red
hat
has
decided
to
retire.
Mr
nicholson
has
come
in
to
purchase
it.
It's
going
to
be
the
same
red
hat
that
generations
have
known
and
loved.
There
will
be
no
changes
to
any
aspects
of
the
operation
he
will
bring
in
some
new
furniture,
some
paint
and
paper.
I
Hopefully,
a
much
needed
deep
cleaning
will
also
occur,
but
basically
it's
going
to
be
him
running.
The
red
hat
we
have
spoken
with
owen
asks
who
required
no
community
outreach,
since
it
has
been
a
licensed
establishment
for
years
in
the
exact
same
location
and
as
the
board
may
be
aware,
when
it
appeared
in
the
boston
globe
and
on
social
media
that
the
red
hat
was
closing,
which
of
course
was
not
actually
accurate.
I
They
had
a
tremendous
outpouring
to
mr
nicholson
and
the
current
owner
of
people
who
were
disappointed
that
it
was
not
going
to
be
there
any
longer
and
it
turns
out.
That's
not
true
they're
actually
going
to
keep
it
going
the
same
as
it
ever
was,
and
we
believe
the
customers
in
the
community
will
be
happy
with
that
and
we're
glad
to
answer
any
questions.

J
Chesterfield
coppin
good
morning,
thanks
for
having
me
my
name
is
chester.
Phil
koppen,
owner
of
oasis
restaurant
we've
been
at
this
location
for
approximately
two
years,
we've
decided
not
to
move
forward
a
alcohol
license
for
the
first
couple
of
years,
simply
because
we
want
to
build
some
sort
of
foundation
gain
the
community's
trust
as
as
well
as
the
neighborhood
association's
trust.
Because
of
the
previous
owners
who
were
there
prior
to
us,
this
place
was
had
beer.
M
J
Me
a
full
beer
and
wine
license
prior
to
us.
I
am
a
citizen
of
the
united
states.
I've
been
here
for
34
years.
I
I'm
also
familiar
with
the
laws
of
the
licensing
boards,
as
well
as
the
abc's
thing.
I've
worked
at
food
and
beverage
for
over
20
years
assistant
general
manager
at
the
marriott
hotel,
where
we
had
and
beverage
as
well
as
alcohol,
and
I
was
the
person
who's
in
charge
of
that
I've
been
alcohol
trained.
I
am
tip
certified.
J
J
I
asked
for
your
consideration
to
this
license
and
I
think
it
would
be
a
great
addition
to
the
community.
I
think
it
will
help
us
tremendously
in
terms
of
our
sales
there's
other
businesses
within
a
one-mile
range
that
has
a
full
liquid
license,
but
we'll
be
only
asking
for
beer
and
wine
license
so
that
we
can
help
build
our
traffic
flow
as
well
as
be
an
addition
enhancements
to
the
community.
B
Thank
you,
mr
coppin.
One
of
the
questions
the
board
looks
to
when
deciding
about
whether
or
not
they
grant
a
license
at
a
particular
location
is
the
public
need?
Could
you
describe
for
us
the
public
need
for
a
beer
and
wine
license.
You
just
mentioned
that.
There's
a
lot
of
all
alcohol
licenses
in
the
general
area.
Are
there
any
other
beer
and
white
lice
licenses
in
that
general
area?
Or
would
you
be?
Would
this
be
a
new
concept.
J
This,
I
know
that
I
know
they
have
all
alcohol
in
terms
of
beer
and
wine
license
this
previous
location.
Had
my
beer,
wine
and
I
think,
liquor
or
full
liquor
license.
I'm
not
100
certain.
However,
we
are
going
to
be
on
wine
license
simply
because
we
serve
caribbean
food
and
southern
food
and
with
the
spice
that
we
do
provide
beer
and
wine
would
be
an
addition
to
the
food,
the
food
that
we
serve.

All
right,
good
morning,
everybody,
this
is
present
even
though
name
says
jack
on
it
on
there
hi
good
morning
again,
as
the
folks
may
know
or
recall,
the
homestead
bakery
cafe
was
first
opened
in
2016,
with
a
seven-day
all-alcohol
license.
So
for
the
first
four
and
a
half
years
of
operation.
Prior
to
the
pandemic,
we
hosted
a
breakfast
lunch
on
a
daily
basis.
AE
Seven
days
a
week,
we
also
hosted
monthly
events
about
between
the
poetry
and
music
reading,
poetry,
reading
music,
as
well
as
game
nights,
the
storytelling
as
well
as

receptions,
and
there
were
also
occasional
experience,
dining
experiences
celebrating
the
diverse
community,
where
the
fields
corner
where
the
fields
corner
represents.
So
we
our
operations
were
interrupted
due
to
covet
19
pandemic
and
in
order
to
preserve
capital,
we
decided
not
to
renew
the
license
at
the
end
of
2020.
AE
Unfortunately,
and
given
that
the
state
of
emergency
has
been
lifted
and
our
state
has
population,
our
state
has
been
mostly
vaccinated.
We're
in
the
process
of
reopening,
therefore
appearing
in
front
of
this
aboard
to
seek
approval
to
reopen.
I
am
the

I
am
a

resident
of
the
state
of
massachusetts
and
I
am

with
the
rules
and
regulations
related
to
serving

sales
of
alcoholic
beverage
with
this
board
as
well
as
abcc,
and
I
was
the
previous
manager
on
the
record.
B
B
That's
why
we
have
tried
very
hard
to
get
in
touch
with
you
through
various
various
avenues,
to
encourage
you
to
renew
during
the
renewal.
Some
of
these
things
are
out
of

but
we
will
take
this
into

Good
morning,
madam
chair
members

board
danielle

with

of

services,
our
office
would
like
to
go
on
record
in
support
of
lost
delicious
colombianist
ii,
the
owner
miguel
and
I
sat
at
his
restaurant
on
june
9th
to
go
over
some
steps
for
the
community
process
and
make
sure
that
he
was
completing
the
proper
and
required
steps
before
the
hearing
due
to
a
bit
of
a
language
barrier.
He
and
I
kept
in
contact
on
a
weekly
basis
until
the
abutters
meeting
was
held
on
july
13th.
AG
Miguel
is
extremely
passionate
about
the
restaurant
and
the
community
he's
been
in
the
business
as
he
mentioned,
as
a
manager
for
the
past
four
years
and
owner
of
this
restaurant
for
the
last
six
months.
His
goal
is
to
bring
more
business
to
high
park
and
to
continue
to
offer
a
family-friendly
environment
during
the
community
outreach
process.
Miguel
connected
with
high
park
main
streets,
and
we
worked
together
to
inform
all
the
community
stakeholders
and
neighborhood
associations
in
the
area.
The
proposal
received
several
written
testimony
and
phone
calls
to
our
office
expressing
support
for
the
restaurant.
AG
Many
residents
during
the
abutters
meeting
expressed
that
miguel
is
a
caring
and
responsible
business
owner
and
community
member
and
excuse
me
and
in
regards
to
potential
concerns
that
may
arise
with
parking
due
to
the
restaurant's
location,
there's
a
parking
lot
that
is
located
behind
the
restaurants
that
guests
can
access.
So
it
is
my
belief
that
this
restaurant
will
help
to
improve
the
business
in
high
park
along
with
rebuilding
a
sense
of
community
and
family
after
what's
been
a
difficult
time
for
many
black
and
minority
business
owners.
AG
AF
AH
Of
high
park-
and
I
am
here
on
behalf
of
myself-
my
family,
my
community,
I've
known
miguel
for,
for
you-
know
four
years
when
he
was
manager-
and
I
was
very
happy
that
he
was
able
to
become
owner
of
the
business.
Miguel
is
a
very
a
responsible
business
owner.
He
is
very
involved
in
the
community.
He
renovated
his
space
once
he
took
over
and
made
the
inside
very

We
have
very
limited
sit
down
restaurant
in
hyde
park.
A
couple
have
closed
and
if
you
know
allowing
him
to
have
beer
and
alcohol
will
help
increase,
sale
and
help
his
business
succeed,
the
community
is
more
than
happy
to
support
him.
I
also
know
a
lot
about
our
business
district
because
I
happen
to
work
for
high
park
main
street,
but,
as
I
said,
I'm
here
as
a
resident,
and
I
fully
support
miguel.
Thank
you
so
much.

AI
Good
morning,
everyone,
my
name,
is
reyes
ruga,
and
this
is
my
father:
florian
struga
we're
a
small
family
business
located
at
3840
washington
street
in
jamaica,
plain
and
we're
here
today
seeking
a
malt
and
beverages
license
for
our
business
on
the
high
demand
of
the
community.
We
we're
trying
to
get
this
ball
rolling,
so
we
can
provide
the
community
with
what
they
really
want.
AI
At
this
moment,
we
want
to
defer
of
a
decision
because
we're
in
the
process
of
meeting
with
danielle,
fonseca
and
michael
ricegan
in
order
to
have
a
community
meeting
and
send
out
the
butter
notifications.
So
we
just
wanted
you
to
hear
the
proposal
today
and
then
hoping
to
receive
a
vote
after
our
community
process
is
complete.
AI
Yes,
so
at
the
hours
of
6
a.m,
we
have
a
lot
of
community
that
go
to
the
training
station,
so
we're
going
to
be
providing
for
breakfast
and
then
at
11
a.m.
Due
for
the
massachusetts
laws
of
alcohol,
we
want
it
on
weekends
to
be
serving
alcohol
for
brunch
and
for
things
like
that,
and
then
we'll
also
be
serving
lunch
and
dinner,
accompanied
with
alcohol
as
well
for
our
bar
restaurant.
AI
So
we've
been
in
business
for
a
little
over
three
and
a
half
years,
we've
been
running.
My
father
had
been
the
manager
of
the
business
with
the
previous
owner,
kevin
walker
as
being
the
owner
of
the
restaurant.
We
were
working
with
him
using
his
full
liquor
license,
so
we
have
full
experience
with
a
complete
liquor
license.
As
my
father
as
the
manager
of
the
of
the
business.
B
O
B
Okay
and
then
just
one
additional
question
for
either
of
you
when
we
evaluate
whether
or
not
this
is
an
appropriate
location
for
an
alcohol
license,
we
always
look
to
public
need.
Could
you
describe
for
us
the
public
need
of
this
type
of
license
here?
Are
there
any
other
licenses
in
the
area
or
concepts?
Does
this
differentiate
itself
in
any
way.
AI
So
we
have
a
lot
of
in
this
area,
there's
a
lot
of
local
breweries
and
a
lot
of
we're
in
jamaica
plain.
So
the
the
population
is
millennial
young.
They
want
to
be
seen
at
a
restaurant
where
they
can
have
their
local
breweries
here
and
eating
their
favorite
foods,
and
we
have
already
had
the
liquor
license
at
this
location.
So
we
know
what
our
clientele
is.
So
we
know
who
is
as
soon
as
we
the
owner
left
and
took
his
license
with
him.
We
lost
that
business
and
then
pandemic.

Yes,
good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
tiffany
cavallaro
here
from
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
given
that
my
predecessor
is
transitioning
out
and
while
I'm
still
getting
acclimated,
we
are
asking
the
board
to
hold
its
vote
until
the
auburn's
meeting
is
held.
I
will
be
working
closely
with
danielle
fonseca,
the
high
park
liaison
and
she
was
covering
the
committee
process.
So
at
this
point
we're
just
asking
that
the
will
be
held.
Thank
you.

on
august
3rd
and
we
will
happily
provide
a
letter
after
the
community
process.

you.
