A
Okay
good
morning,
this
is
the
voting
meeting
before
the
licensing
board
for
the
city
of
boston.
Today
is
thursday
february
3rd
2022.
While
the
public
is
encouraged
to
attend,
there
will
be
no
additional
public
testimony
accepted
today,
we'll
begin
with
the
license
premise:
inspection
hearing,
which
occurred
on
tuesday
february
1st
2022.
A
B
A
A
B
B
B
Sure
I
mean
they
need
a
redraft
of
their
security
plan
or
like
watching
the
door
and
retraining,
yeah
I'd,
say:
review,
redraft
their
security
plan
and
retrain
staff.
A
Sure
great
item
number
five
has
been
continued
at
the
request
of
the
licensee
item:
number
six
425
broadway
llc,
located
at
425
west
broadway
in
south
boston
date
of
the
incident
october;
31st,
2021,
drug
use
on
premise
and
violation
of
mass
general
laws.
Chapter
138,
section
64.,.
B
This,
unfortunately,
this
is
something
we
see
we
have
been
seeing
several
times
throughout
the
city.
However,
I
don't
see
any
evidence
that
was
presented
to
demonstrate
that
she
was
drugged
at
this
location.
B
B
Danny,
I
was
saying
no
violation.
I
would
ask
that
you
resend
our
our
advisory
on
nightlife
safety.
A
B
I
think
what
we
had
here
was
lack
of
communication
between
management
and
the
staff
that
was
setting
up
the
restaurant
for
the
next
day
and
the
unfortunate
timing
of
a
licensed
premise
inspection.
While
this
was
happening,
the
management
was
cooperative,
it
was
they
weren't.
Those
tables
and
chairs
weren't,
intended
to
be
there
for
a
long
time.
My
vote
would
be
to
send
correspondents
from
the
board
and
to
dock
at
this
in
their
file.
B
A
Correspondents
from
the
board

Chapter
138,
section
64.,.
B
Well,
management
did
take
corrective
action
and
cooperated
with
the
police
and
did
describe
this
as
a
private
party
with
a
new
bartender,
I
still
see
a
violation
yeah.
I
agree.
B
What
would
be
for
a
written

the
board,

a.m
and
has
petitioned

pledge
the
license
to

commercial

llc.
A
B
Getting
a
public
need.
This
is
a
unique
concept.
A
high-end
furniture
store
that
hasn't
a
cafe
inside
they'd
like
to
be
able
to
offer
that
I
think
the
testimony
was
they'd
really
only
be
offering
wine
and
they're
seeking
a
wine
and
malt
license
for
lunches
and
brunches.
B
I
don't
see
anything
else
in
that
neighborhood
that
offers
such
a
amenity
with
the
furniture
store
in
that
location.
I
do
think
that
this
might
be
an
application,
that's
better
suited
for
a
byob,
but
that
being
said,
I
would
vote
for.
I
would
say
that
they
have
met
the
requirements
of
public
need,
for
this
type
of
license
should
one
become
available,
but
I
also
think
they
should
look
into
a
byob
concept
of
this
location
yeah.
C
How
do
you
think
damn?
I
would
normally
have
reservations
about
some
of
the
aspects
about
the
use
and
the
size
and
stuff,
but
I
think
it
is
so
unique
and
it's
there's
so
much
support
for
it.
I
would
err
on
the
side
of
saying
yes,
so
you
know,
obviously
it's
always
pending
the
availability.
I
guess,
but
my
goal
would
be
yes.
B
A
Great
and
to
your
earlier
point
chair,
if
one
does
not
become
available,
you
would
like
us
to
work
with
them
on
byob,
potentially.
B
A
A
A
I
agree
as
well
and
the
following
have
applied
to
make
changes
to
their
existing
common
ritual
licenses
item
one
spalding
rehabilitation,
hospital
corp,
doing
business
as
spaulding
rehabilitation.
Hospital
located
at
301st
avenue
in
charlestown
has
applied
to
change
the
officers
to
melissa,
pope
brannon
manager,
holland,
s,
spears,
chair
of
the
board
of
trustees,.
A
A
I
agree
great
and
the
board
has
before
them
a
list
of
special
one
day.
Alcohol
license
that
have
been
reviewed
by
staff
and
approved
by
the
board.
