these

They
decided

resulted
in
an
infusion

cash
to
keep
these
businesses
and
their

going.
So
there
are
some

N
There
are
no
other
changes
to

relative
to
this

As
far
as
the

there's

there's

that

they
won't

In
case
you
have
any
questions.
Q
The
restaurant
has
actually
been
well
established
in
this
neighborhood
for
over
two
decades,
which
weskar
and
ingrid
just
took
this
restaurant
over
a
few
years
ago.
There
are
no
other
dominican,
restaurants
in
close
proximity,
and
their
customers
have
been
mentioning
to
them.
How
it
would
be
nice
to
just
be
able
to
enjoy
a
beverage
or
a
beer
of
wine
with
their
dinners,
which
is
what
brings
us
here.
Q
Weskar

Both
massachusetts

B

while,
while

so
great
in

I
will
ask.
Are
there
any
individuals
who
would
like
to
testify
on
this
matter,
beginning
with
elected
officials
or
their
representatives.

Hi
yes,
good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
kim
crusale
from
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
my
colleague,
tiffany
caballero.
At
this
time
we
would
like
to
defer
to
the
board
jamaica,
plain
business
and
professional
association
and
the
jamaica,
plain
neighborhood
council
public
service
committee
offered
their
support
for
this
proposal.
We
also
received
two
letters
of
support
and
no
letters
of
opposition
from
the
abutters.
Thank
you.
A
P
My
name
is
michael
reiskind.
I
live
at
425,
south
huntington
avenue
in
jamaica,
plain,
I'm
a
member
of
the
jamaica,
plain
neighborhood
council
and
chair
of
its
public
service
committee.
We
had
a
neighborhood
hearing
on
this
issue
last
night
july,
12th
in
which
miss
pinali
cevallo
attended,
and
this
has
been
a
long
time.
P
Restaurant
dominican,
restaurant
at
this
location
under
multiple
names,
los
bendicidos,
el
fogon
de
la
morena
and
el
salzon
de
la
munechas.
It's
been
there
since
at
least
2006..
P
The
present
owners
took
ownership
last
year
and
we
urge
you
to
pass
this
application
for
beer
and
wine.
There
were
two
residents
who
attended
the
meeting
that
came
in
opposition
last
night.
One
thought
that
the
small
18
seat
restaurant
was
too
small
to
have
a
beer
and
wine
license.
P
The
committee
considered
it
and
voted
to
to
to
be
in
favor
and
support
this
application.
We
have
several
restaurants
smaller
or
this
size
that
are
successful
operators
with
beer
and
wine.
The
other
resident
thought
was
unhappy
with
the
trash
along
hyde
park,
avenue,
trash
and
litter,
and
was
also
unhappy
that
the
side
street
eldridge
street
was
narrow
and
would
cause
traffic
congestion.
P
The
committee
felt
that
the
extra
beer
and
wine
license
would
not
add
to
the
traffic
congestion
and
in
fact
all
the
residents
who
were
opposing
did
not
think
the
traffic
or
the
or
the
litter
would
be
changed
at
all
by
going
for
a
beer
and
wine.
So
we
ask
the
board
to
support
this
application
for
a
new
beer
and
wine
license
at
264
hyde
park
avenue.
Thank
you.
A
And
ms
pinellas,
I
follow
any
luck
with
your
camera.
It
appears
not
chairman
joyce.
Are
you
comfortable
moving
forward.
A
Great,
thank
you.
In
that
case,
the
board
will
take
this
matter
under
advisement.
Thank
you

a

organization
that
closed

a
couple
years
ago,
or
almost
three.
R

But,
as
I
say,
it's
still
the
same
footprint
as
before,
and
menu
and
service
will
be
similar
as
well,
but
with
the
new
look
hours,
we're
asking
for

intend
to
be
open
at
7am
to
midnight

would
ask

from
8
a.m.
Beginning
8
a.m,
monday
through
saturday

I
should
have
said
was,

is
the

manager.
R
Kellyanne
mcclintock
has
almost
25
years
of
experience
in
the
restaurant
industry.
She
that
includes
11
years
at
this
same
space
under
the
prior
operator,
she
began
at
the
harpoon
tap
room
at
logan
as
a
server.
She
moved
up
to
bartender,
lead,
bartender

supervisor,
and
now
is
the
proposed
manager.
