A
Please

11
am
to
11
pm
who
was
present

of
the

C
That
would
be
me
danny.
How
are
you

How
are
you
I'm
doing
very
well?
I
appreciate
everyone's

and
I'll
be
as
quick
as
possible.
I'm
here
representing
sandra
russo,
who
may
or
may
not
be
on
the
call.
I
didn't
really
check
the
participants,
but
she
is
seeking
a
cd
license
at
121
salem
street
to
open
up
an
ice
cream
shop
and
we
we
are
a
strictly
takeout
business.
Her
ice
cream
shop
is
going
to
be
strictly
takeout.
C
There
are
no
seats,
it
is
roughly
400
square
foot
business.
She
is
a
former
owner
of
a
similar
establishment
in
the
north
end,
she
used
to
own
a
business
called
lulu's
sweet
shop
that
was
located
on
hanover
street
as
well
as
parmenta
street
and
a
pretty
basic
operation.
C
It's
going
to
be
an
ice
cream
shop
with
some
packaged
candy
and
her
hours
of
operation
are
going
to
be
from
11
a.m,
to
11
p.m,
and
that
is
really
in
similarity
to
the
businesses
in
in
the

so
anyone's

a

or
seven-day
alcoholic

license,
has
petitioned
to
change
the
dba
of
the

from

Secondly,
has

the
manager
of
the

from

to
patrick
michael
mccauley,
attorney,

M
Yep
good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
executive
secretary,
green
attorney,
nick
cezula,
mcdermott,
quilty
and
miller
28th
state
street
in
boston
here
on
behalf
of
vesper
llc.
As
read
into
the
record
this.
These
are
two
simple
administrative
hearing
matters.
M
The
first
is
a
change
of
the
dba
name
from
the
previous
kind
of
placeholder
name
of
vesper
bar
to
the
actual
operating
name
of
plant
pub
fenway,
as
well
as
his
change
of
manager
of
record
again
from
a
kind
of
a
previous
placeholder
manager
of
record
prior
to
opening
of
panos
demeter
to
mr
patrick
mccauley,
who
is
here
with
me
today
and
on
screen.
M
These
are
both
further
kind
of
final
cleanup
items
on
the
liquor
license.
You
may
recall
back
a
few
months
ago,
in
january
26,
we
were
here
for
a
management
agreement
between
the
licensee
and
the
management
entity,
fenway
plant-based
llc.
So
this
is
just
kind
of
the
final
feather
in
the
cap
of
the
changeover
to
the
management
entity,
with
their
dba
name
and
with
their
with
their
manager
of
record.
At
the
premises,
as
indicated
mr
mccauley
is
here
he's
virtually
present.
M
He's
never
been
a
minute
of
record
on
a
liquor
license
in
the
commonwealth
before,
but
he
does
have
extensive
experience
in
the
industry
in
the
hospitality
industries,
the
craft,
beer,
entrepreneur
and
restaurant
owner.
He
was
a
co-founder
of
barrel
house,
z,
brewing
in
weymouth
and
does
have
other
experience
in
the
industry,
as
required.
Madam
chair,
before
you
ask
the
questions,
he
is
a
citizen
of
the
united
states.
He
is
a
resident
of
massachusetts
and
weymouth.
He
is
over
21
years
of
age.
M
He
is
also
tip
certified,
which
we
submitted
his
certification
to
the
board
prior
to
the
hearing
today,
so
he
has
familiarized
himself
with
the
rules
and
regulations
for
the
city
as
well
as
for
the
state
for
the
sale
and
service
of
alcohol.
M
I
think
that
covers
everything,
but
as
always,
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
might
have,
and
thank
you
for
your
time.

N
Thank
you.
We
petitioned
to
our
neighborhood
and
we've
gone
through
the
neighborhood
process
during
a
butters
meeting
and
meeting
with
the
brighton
allison
approving
association,
a
proposal
originally
we
had
recommended
or
tried
to
seek
for
our
license
to
extend
to
2
am,
however,
after
some
feedback
and
talking
with
the
neighborhood,
we
have
brought
that
back
and
decided
to
request
the
license
be
extended
to
1am.
N
At
that
point,
we
received
overwhelming
support
from
the
bright
nelson
improvement
association,
and
we
also
received
support
for
in
our
abutters
meeting
a
letter
to
support
there.
We
worked
with
connor
newman
on
this,
and
we've
seen
nothing
but
positivity
for
it
reason
being
for
this
request
is
the
recent
addition
to
our
neighborhood
of
the
roadrunner
music
venue
and
our
desire
to
try
to
sell
one
round

newman
with
mayor's

neighborhood

At
this
time,
the
mayor's
office
like
to
defer
judgment
to
the
board.
We
conducted
a
butters
meeting
on
april
5th
prior
to
that,
a
president
reached
out
to
express
support
for
this
proposal,
saying
that
toronto
has
been
a
great
addition
to
that
neighborhood.
O
We
did
have
two
elderly
residents
who
attended,
who
mentioned
some
loud
noises
from
pedestrians
on
their
street
and
they
attributed
that
to
brothel,
although
it
wasn't
entirely
evident
if
that
was
the
case,
but
they
expressed
some
concerns
and,
as
mentioned
jonathan
changed
the
proposal
from
2am
to
1am,
partly
to
address
those
concerns.
It
was
also
from
my
understanding
but
posted
signage
within
the
restaurant,
reminding
folks
that
they're
near
a
residential
neighborhood.

A
Q
Good
morning,
madam
chair
commissioners
attorney
green
good
job
with
that
one.
Thank
you
for
having
us
this
morning,
I'm
joined
by
bob
aquina.
He
is
the
owner
of
jm
curly's.
One
thing
I
do
just
want
to
correct
for
the
record
for
the
change
of
dba:
it's
actually
going
to
be
the
wig
shop
lounge,
not
just
the
wig
lounge,
so
we're
here
before
you
today
for
a
few
alterations
to
the
current
restaurant
operation.
The
first
is
the
alteration
of
premises.
Q
Mr
bean
is
extending
the
space
into
what
used
to
be
the
wake
shop
next
door.
So
this
opportunity
is
for
him
to
extend
the
restaurant
to
the
space
next
door.
Q
If
they
used
to
be
connected,
they
showed
the
same
address,
but
they
closed
up
the
wall
at
one
point
now,
it'll
be
reopened,
it'll,
expand
his
seating
operation
and
allow
him
to
have
more
seating
space
on
a
traditional
basis,
which
is
the
first
set
of
plans
that
is
going
to
be
able
to
have
that
seating
for
31
in
that
second
dining
room,
and
then
the
second
plan
is
for
mr
mina
to
be
able
to
have
events
in
the
space.
There
won't
be
any
live,
entertainment
added
or
anything
of
that
nature.
Q
It's
just
to
have
the
extra
space
for
private
functions
as
well
as
traditional
seating
to
extend
from
the
restaurant.
That's
currently
in
place,
I'm
not
sure
if
everyone's
aware
but
jm
curly
is
the
front-facing
restaurant
at
the
location,
with
bogey's
place
located
as
sort
of
a
speakeasy
steakhouse
in
the
back.
Q
The
concept
and
the
food
from
bogies
will
be
continuing
over
into
this
new
space,
and
the
change
of
dba
is
to
add
bulgy's
place
to
the
license,
as
well
as
this
new
space,
the
wake
shop
lounge,
the
basement
will
have
seating
for
10
people.
Q
It's
just
a
small
extra
dining
space
can
be
a
private
dining
area
for
a
small
party
and
the
change
of
the
ownership
is
the
three
owners
are
staying.
The
same.
Mr
bean
has
purchased
some
stock
from
one
of
the
other
owners
of
the
business,
and
so
it's
just
to
make
sure
that
that's
all
correct
on
the
record,
but
operationally
nothing
will
be
changing
at
the
location.
Mr
mean
has
done
an
extensive
amount
of
community
outreach
spoken
with
all
of
the
neighborhood
groups.
Q
B
Q
B
I
remember
when
people
when
that
was
open.
I
have
no
questions
at
this
time.
Commissioner
carrano.
Commissioner
saxon.
Do
you.

As
chilean
noted,
we
did
file
a
letter
of
support
and
just
to
reiterate
briefly
what
we
said:
babak
bina
has
been
a
model
operator
in
the
bid
area
for
decades.
First
would
be
in
australia
now,
of
course,
with
jm
curley
since
2011.
S
we
couldn't
be
more
pleased
with
this
proposal.
Temple
place
is
a
really
significant
restaurant
row
in
the
bid
area.
If
you
will
and
j.m
curley
is
one
of
its
anchors,
so
we
really
look
forward
to
seeing
this
happen.
Thank
you
very
much.

Good

representing

before
you
with

This
morning
is
colleen
hagerty,
who
I
see
on
screen
the
proposed
manager
of
record.
This
is
a
straight
up:
corp
to
corp
transfer,
no
change
of
location.
The
site
has
been
a
neighborhood
bar
and
restaurant
for
decades
and
is
undergoing
a
a
change
of
ownership
from
the
existing
licensee
mh
liquor
llc
to
the
present
applicant
mission
hill

llc,
which
would
do
business
as
yellow

taqueria.
U
In
the
south
end
one
in
dorchester,
which
is
the
original
location-
and
this
would
be
the
third
it's
a
very,
very
popular
neighborhood
establishment
where
it
presently
exists-
miss
hagerty,
I
believe
and
colleen
correct
me.
If
I'm
wrong,
I
think
you
have
already
been
appointed
manager
in
another
location
yep.
I
have
I
thought
so
so
she
is
clearly
a
fit
for
this
role.
U
We
were
in
touch
with
the
district
city
council
or
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services.
Given
our
extensive
outreach,
I
I
don't
believe
we
have
any
opposition,
as
we
appear
in
front
of
you.
Ms
haggerty
is
a
pre-existing
manager
of
record
and
other
than
that,
no
changes
of
operations,
hours,
size

etc.

issued
accordingly,
so
they

and
then
assuming
the

is
approved
by

They

I
would
like
to
mention
that
we've
had
discussions
with
the
downtown

We
have
agreed
not
to
sell
any

at

although
we've
reserved
the
right
to

deliver
them.
We've
also
agreed
not
to
sell
any
mass-market
singles
over
16
ounces
and
not
to
sell
any

but
other
than

the

will
be
after
the
downtown
north

just
to
confirm
what
attorney
upton
had
mentioned.
We
did
have
a
conversation
regarding
a
condition
of
no
nips
or
singles
at
this
location,
where
I'm
happy
that
they've
agreed
to
that
condition
and
they're
enthusiastic
about
getting
competent
management
into
this
location.
It
has
been
problematic
in
the
past,
so
we
would
like
to
go
on

you.

in
boston,
representing

We
are
here
today
primarily
to
seek
approval
of
an
inner
family
transfer
of
the
all
alcohol
seven
day.
Seedling
cv
license
from
buchalati
incorporated
to
buchalati
llc
for
the
premises
of
three
north
square.
There
is
no
change
of
location.
AF
Just
by
way
of
background.
The
sole
shareholder
of
guccillati
incorporated
was
john
mcgee,
mr
mcgee
passed
away
and
we're
seeking
approval
to
transfer
the
license
to
buchalati
llc,
whose
sole
members
are
two
trusts
established
under
the
will
of
john
key
for
the
benefit

his

the

of
the
truster
john
mcgee's
wife,
lila
haddad,
and
his
two
daughters,
zoe
and
phoebe.
AF
In
addition,
we're
seeking
to
alter
the
license
premise
at
north
square,
as
attorney
green,
just
indicated
and
reading
the
notice
the
restaurant
occupies
it's
my
understanding.
The
restaurant
has
always
occupied
the
entire
building
at
three
north
square.
However,
previously
only
the
first
and
second
floors
were
licensed,
which
is
where
diners
eat,
where
all
the
tables
and
chairs
are
we're
seeking
to
include
the
basement
area,
which
includes
a
portion
of
the
kitchen,
storage
and
bathrooms.
AF
In
the
third
floor,
which
includes
storage
and
administrative
office,
dining
rooms
are
still
going
to
be
on
the
first
and
second
floor,
we're
also
seeking
to
increase
the
seating
area
from
76
seats
to
89
seats,
as
noted
they
would
still
be
on
the
first
and
second
floor.
We
do
not
need
to
do
any
construction,
we'll
just
be
rearranging
the
tables
and
chairs
to
accommodate
this.
AF
We
did
want
to
note
that
there
aren't
any
life
safety
concerns
from
the
increase
in
the
seating
area,
as
we've
already
obtained
place
of
assembly
permit
from
the
fire
department,
a
certificate
of
inspection
from
inspectional
services
for
95
persons
within
this
and
we're
seeking
to
go
to
89
seats.
Finally,
we're
asking
to
modify
the
manager
of
record
from
the
deceased
john
mcgee
to
reuben
maciel,
who
is
with
us
here
today,
as
noted
in
our
application
materials.
AF
Reuben
has
a
long
history
in

AF
We
are
not
proposing
any
other
changes
to

It's
going

options,
the

atmosphere
and
experience
for
the
customers
with
the

didn't
want
to

We
did
go
through
a
public

We
reached
out
to
the

Good
morning
attorney
green,
this
is
attorney
mike
ross
from
the
law
firm
of
prince
lobel
good
morning,
madam
chair
and
commissioners
with
me
today
is
tito
jackson.
The
proposed
owner
and
manager
of
record
the
application
before
you,
as
just
mentioned,
is
a
transfer
of
the
existing
license
located
at
150
state
street.
AH
As
the
board
is
aware,
the
existing
license
was
exercised
on
the
1st,
2nd
and
7th
floors
of
this
building,
and
we
are
now
requesting
to
move
the
license
solely
to
the
sixth
and
seventh
floors
of
the
buildings.
We
are
requesting
to
change
the
license
type,
as
mentioned
from
cv
seven
day,
all
alcohol
beverage
to
club
all
alcohol
beverage.
There
is
no
on-site
kitchen
at
the
licensed
premise
and
we
are
exploring
potential
partnerships
with
area
restaurants
to
provide
food
services
to
our
patrons.
AH
We
are
requesting
a
pledge,
as
mentioned
of
the
license
to
the
robert
weintraub
trust
as
collateral
for
the
promissory
note
associated
with
the
purchase
of
the
license.
Tito
is
the
proposed
manager
of
record
at
this
time.
He
is
a
u.s
citizen.
A
resident
of
the
commonwealth
has
experience
in
the
food
and
beverage
industry
and
is
familiar
with
the
rules
and
regulations
of
the
board,
the
abcc
and
the
laws
of
the
commonwealth,
as
they
pertain
to
the
sale
and
service
of
alcohol.
AH
We
do
anticipate
identifying
a
separate
manager
of
record
prior
to
commencing
operations
and,
of
course,
will
file
an
application
with
a
board
for
the
same
once
that
individual
has
been
selected.
However,
mr
jackson
will
be
on
site
at
the
license
premise
frequently
before
I
provide
an
overview
of
our
service
and
operations.
I
wanted
to
just
ask
tito
if
he
could
briefly
speak
to
discuss
the
concept
of
the
space.
AI
AI
I
do
want
to
be
very
transparent
that
this
is
a
multi-tenanted
building
on
the
first
through
fifth
floor
is
a
licensed
cannabis
operation,
and
so
I'd
like
to
kind
of
first
walk
you
through
the
the
concept,
so
the
first,
the
basement
actually
does
have
a
kitchen,
but
it
will
be
used
and
it's
actually
licensed
for
cannabis
manufacturing.
AI
The
first
floor
will
be
used
on
the
cannabis
front
for
those
individuals
who
ordered
online.
The
second
floor
is
a
a
space
for
those
individuals
who
have
not
ordered
online
typical
experience
there
and
then
fourth
and
fifth
floor
are
administrative
floors.
AI
This
is
a
separate
company,
a
separate
entity
which
will
operate
on
the
sixth
and
seventh
floor.
One
of
the
good
crossovers
is
that
this
whole
building
actually
has
an
access
system
that
requires
individuals
to
actually
use
a
fob
or
a
key
card
system
to
move
around.
So
when
an
individual-
and
we
will
actually
have
two
separate
folks
at
the
front
door,
one
for
the
cannabis
establishment
and
one
for
the
alcohol
establishment
when
you
walk
in
to
the
first
hallway,
the
cannabis
establishment
actually
starts
inside
the
door
on
your
left.
AI
You
take
a
left
and
you
would
then
be
at
the
elevator
on
the
elevator
to
get
to
any
floor
other
than
the
first
floor
requires
an
individual
to
have
a
key
card
or
to
have
a
key
card,
so
that
precludes
individuals
from
going
to
any
of
the
other
floors.
So
we
also
have
another
security
person
at
that
point
and
then,
in
addition,
we
will
have
a
security
person
who
will
then
id
individuals
at
the
the
sixth
or
seventh
floor.
AI
The
concept
is,
as
mike
said,
a
high-end
bar
and
lounge.
That
will,
I
think,
do
a
really
good
job
at
representing
the
culture
and
feel
of
the
city
of
boston
and
add
additional
flavor
to
the
faneuil
hall
area.
I
do
believe
that
we
will
be
the
first
black
owned
liquor
license
in
the
faneuil
hall
area
and,
if
I'm
not
mistaken,
I
believe
that
we
will
be
the
first
black
black-owned
hospitality
business
in
that
space.

So
we
really
look
forward
to
be
forward-facing
and
represent
the
city.
Well,
we
have
connected
with
the
wharf
district
council,
as
well
as
our
neighbors
and
members
of
the
community,
and
really
looking
forward
to
opening
up
and
being
a
beacon
for
the
city
of
boston.
Thank
you
so
much,
and
if
you
have
any
questions,
I
would
love
to
answer
them.
AH
I
just
had
a
couple
other
quick
comments:
tito
pretty
much
covered
it
all,
but
just
just
to
reiterate
tito
has
the
ownership
interest
in
both
the
cannabis
establishment,
and
this
establishment
does
understand
that
safety
and
security
of
utmost
importance.
AH
AH
AH
All
of
this
is
a
transfer
of
the
same
location.
We
did
want
to
just
put
out
the
public
need,
given
the
uniqueness
of
this
proposal.
Downtown
is
home
to
restaurant,
many
restaurants
and
bars.
This
concept
differs
from
from
many
of
those
restaurants
and
bars.
It's
a
small
space.
It's
an
intimate
space,
as
tito
mentioned,
it
is
one
of
the
rare
spaces
that
will
be
owned
by
a
black
or
brown
individual
in
this
area.
It's
a
great
opportunity
in
that
regard.
AH
I
would
also
just
respectfully
submit
that
there
is
no
question
of
mr
jackson's
character
and
fitness
to
own
and
operate
this
establishment
with
that,
I
will
turn
it
over
to
the
board
for
any
questions.
Thank
you
mike.
AI
Can
I
just
follow
up
on
on
one
thing:
the
conversion
to
club
the
club
license
also
means
that
we
will
never
have
to
have
anyone
under
the
age
of
21
inside
the
building,
so
that
is
from
from
a
security
perspective
is
something
that
we
actually
are
really
adamant
about.
So
we
don't
actually
have
to
deal
with
the
same
issues
that
a
regular
restaurant
with
a
seven-day
cv
would
would
deal
with.
Thank
you.
B
AH
To
oh,
yes,
that's
correct,
I'm
sorry,
manche
you're
correct,
we
will
be.
We
did
not
handle
the
transaction
as
attorneys
for
the
applicant,
but
his
attorneys
for
the
cannabis
dispensary
will
be
going
back
and
removing
floors
six
and
seven
from
the
premises.
Thank
you.
Yes.
Okay.
B
And
is
the
is
the
goal
or
mission
of
this
business
to
eventually
have
social
consumption
upstairs
in
the
club
once
that's
approved
in
the
city
of
austin?
Is
that.
AI
Yes,
I
I
would
I
I
at
this
point:
it
has
passed
the
senate
as
well
as
past
the
the
the
house.
It
would
obviously
be
up
to
the
council,
as
well
as
the
mayor,
not
to
bring
that
on
board.
We
would
love
to
have
that
is.
AI
We
would
love
that
we
would
actually
obviously
have
to
move
move
the
the
license
out
of
the
space,
but
we
would
begin
to,
and
actually
the
other
piece
madam
chair
would
be.
It
would
actually
be
contented
on
how
that
is
implemented,
because
the
current
rules
at
the
state
would
actually
mean
that
it
would
not
be
economically
viable
so
upon
changes.
It
is
something
that
we
would
definitely
consider.
Okay,.
B
So
let
me
just
get
through
a
couple
more
questions
attorney
ross.
So
it's
a
club
license
you're
talking
about
security
at
the
front
door,
so
you'll
have
a
separate
security
assigned
to
the
cannabis
establishment
and
then
a
separate
security
assigned
to
the
club.
AH
AH
Yeah,
so
it's
not
a
private
club,
it's
it's
a
it's!
A
it's
open
to
the
public
that.
B
AH
B
That's
all
how
many
security
guards
upstairs
in
the
in
the
club.
AH
So
we
have
three
all
day:
there's
there's
two
for
the
club
for
the
for
apex:
let's
call
it
apex,
there's
one
at
the
front
door
and
there's
one
in
the
elevator
there's.
Also
every
every
bartender
or
server
will
also
be
checking
ids
as
well.
B
AI
So,
madam
chair,
we
are
not
going
to
be
outsourcing
it.
We
will
actually
actually
have
those
individuals
as
staff
members.
We
will
be
putting
our
security
through
the
same
background
check
with
csi
that
we
do
for
the
cannabis
side.
We
are.
AI
We
have
a
relationship
with
csi
and
the
objective,
and
I
would
submit
to
you,
madam
chair,
that
we
actually
have
probably
the
the
highest
burden
here
relative
to
the
fact
that
there
are
two
two
licenses,
and
so
that
is
the
issue
of
making
sure
that
individuals
are
acting
accordingly
and
respecting
the
community.
AI
As
noted
in
the
cannabis
side,
we
have
a
a
check
of
three
ids
id
checks
as
well
as
we
have
a
contract
with
the
community,
as
as,
as
you
know,
relative
to
individuals
who
overstep
boundaries,
there
they're
not
allowed
to
be
served,
but,
as
noted,
all
of
our
staff
will
be
trained
and
if
they
see
anyone
participating
in
the
consumption
of
cannabis,
those
individuals
will
be
asked
to
leave
and
they
will
also
not
be
allowed
back
on
the
premise.
AH
AI
And
and
madam
chair
there
are,
are
the
cannabis
level
access
points
at
every
single
floor?
In
addition,
we
just
installed
58
cameras
all
all
throughout
the
building,
including
in
the
stairwells,
so
we
at
all
times
will
have
eyes
on
the
facility
at
night
we
also
have
motion
sensors
and
we
also
have
panic
buttons
in
the
building.
I'm.
B
Concerned
so
that
that
door,
that's
manned
from
the
club
at
the
back
that
you're
describing,
is
it
a
secured.
AJ
B
B
AI
It
is
a
it's
a
security,
lock
door
that
requires
a
fob
to
open,
so
in
any
individual
would
be
required
to
have
a
fob
to
open
and
there.
As
noted,
there
are
two
stairwells
one.
Stairwell
is
actually
really
considered
back
of
house
and
we
don't
allow
any
patrons,
and
then
we
also
have
the
front
stairwell.
AI
That
is
technically
common
area.
But
the
primary
means
of
going
up
to
the
sixth
and
seventh
floor
is
the
elevator
and
there's
also
a
camera
inside
the
elevator.
B
Okay,
I
don't
have
any
further
questions
at
this
time.
Commissioner
curran,
do
you
or
commissioner
saxon?
Do
you.

Additionally,

having
known
tito

for

I
can,
with
full
confidence,
testify
that
mr
jackson
is
one
of
the
most
caring,
supportive
and
responsible
business
owners
I
have
ever
met.
He
has
been
a
personal
inspiration
for
me
in
the
last
few
years.
I
have
specifically
helped
him
with
this
business
plan
and
vision
for
elevating
the
boston
community
by
bringing
diverse
people
together
in
an
inspirational
space

A
AL
Good
morning,
good
morning,
madam

members
of
the
board
hi,
my
name
is
mia.
Grayson,
stated
founding
member
of
the
black

coalition
and
operating
a
restaurant
tour
in
the
city
of
boston,
a
roxbury
resident
with
a
home
and
residence
in
district
7,
which
was
formerly
governed
by
tito
jackson
and
a
hopeful
and
excited
new
patron
of
apex
bar
and
lounge
after
the
last
few
years.
AL
I'm
super
inspired
by
not
only
a
resilience
of
our
industry,
but
by
the
courage
of
entrepreneurs
who
are
looking
to
start
and
grow
in
this
space
and
as
a
loyal
patron
of
daryl's,
kona
bar
and
kitchen,
as
well
as
a
friend.
Tito
has
had
a
first
row
seat
to
our
experiences
over
the
years
and
he
understands
the
challenges
and
opportunities
ahead.
AL
I
see
apex
barn
lounge
as
an
extreme
public
benefit
for
the
city
of
boston,
not
only
in
terms
of
local
economic
empowerment,
but
also
an
added
attraction
for
tourism
and,
as
the
city
continues
to
develop
and
nurture.
New
and
innovative
ideas
of
venues
such
as
this
with
its
unique
amenities,
would
be
a
welcome
addition,

I
am
testifying

Hi
again
afternoon,
oh
good
morning,
my
name
is
virginia
benson,
I'm
an
attorney
and
I'm
also
a
boston
resident.
I've
been
a
boston
resident
for
almost
18
years
and
it's
my
honor
and
pleasure
to
offer
a
personal
reference
character
reference
for
tito
jackson,
I've
known
him
for
nearly
30
years,
which
I
almost
can't
believe
myself
and
in
those
30
years,
I've
known
him
not
to
conduct
himself
with
integrity
and
principle.
F
And
I
I
hear
your
concerns
about
safety
and
I
have
to
say
that
you
know
as
a
public
servant.
Tito
has
not
has
shown
nothing
but
concern
for
public
interest,
public
safety,
our
youth
he's
now
on
the
commission,
for
I'm
probably
not
going
to
remember
the
title
correctly,
but
for
the
black
men's
youth
commission.
So
he's
shown
a
history
of
being
concerned
about
health
safety,
and
so
I
think
his
fitness
to
run
this
establishment
with
integrity
with
principal
and
to
be
an
upstanding
business
owner.
F
He
has
a
record
of
that
in
his
professional
life
and
in
his
public
service.
So
I
know
there
are
a
lot
of
hands
raised,
but
it's
my
pleasure.
I
think
you
know
I
want
to
support
this
transfer
of
the
license
and
I
think,
on
the
two-year
anniversary
of
george
floyd,
when
the
country
is
saying
that
there
there's
this
racial
reckoning
of
the
fact
that
black
men
have
not
or
black
people
have
not
received,
I
think
that
he
would
be
the
tenth
to
receive
a
full
license.
F
F
I
A
K
K
My
name
is
justin
brown
and
I've
had
the
pleasure
of
not
only
working
with
tito,
but
actually
knowing
him.
My
whole
life
and
I'm
in
full
support
of
his
leadership
is
his
council
and
apex
bar
lounge.
Thank
you.

Good
morning,

and
I
am
here,
excuse
me,
I
have
copic

and
so
I
am
here
in
support
of
mr
tito
jackson
in
this
development
of
boston's,
only
black
owned,
rooftop
bar
and
lounge.
AG
As
has
been
said
before,
this
is
history
in
the
making-
and
this
is
time
for
this
commission
in
this
city
to
do
to
make
well
on
its
promises
of
economic
development
and
prosperity
for
the
residents
black
and
brown

of
boston.
I
have
known
tito
for
20
years

in
that
time
I
have
known
him
to
be
a
stellar
community
leader,
a
responsible
business
leader
and
an
all-around
good
person.
AG
So
I
echo
everything
that
has
been
said

want
to
be
in

of
his
good
character

you.
AM
Hi
good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
my
name
is
nichelle
sadler.
I
am
a
lifelong
resident
of
the
south
end
and
roxbury,
and
I
am
here
today
in
support
of
tito
jackson,
full
disclosure-
I
am
his
former
chief
of
staff
and,
as
virginia
stated,
I
can
attest
to
his
commitment
to
the
safety
and
well-being
of
the
residents
of
boston,
but
I'm
also
just
really
excited
about
having
a
black
owned
establishment
in
the
faneuil
hall
area.
AM
We
often
sorry,
I
often
have
families,
friends
and
many
times,
colleagues
that
are
seeking
out
black-owned
establishments,
but
that
are
staying
in
the
faneuil
hall
area
during
their
visit
here
to
boston-
and
you
know
you
know
often
there's
no
choice
and
you
know
folks
have
to
travel
across
the
city
to
enjoy
a
beverage
at
a
black-owned
establishment,
and
I
just
think
that
having
this
establishment
approve
will
just
give
tourists
more
options.
A
AN
So
excuse
me
for
the
surrounding
noise,
but
I'm
here
to
testify,
on
behalf
of
tito
jackson,
a
friend
of
mine
and
former
colleague
in
former
governor
deval
patrick's
administration,
I've
known
tito
for
17
years,
known
him
to
be
a
upstanding
individual,
a
great
leader,
someone
that
many
look
up
to,
and
I
think
he
is
as
prepared
as
anyone
to
lead
such
establishment
and
make
history
in
the
faneuil
hall
area.
AN
I
think
he
is,
is
the
perfect
person
to
lead
such
establishment
and
to
and
is
responsible
to
to
lead
the
success
of
the
establishment.
So
I
support
tito
and
I
hope
the
board
supports
him
as
well
and
makes
history
supporting
this.
Black
establishment
is
much
needed
in
the
city
of
boston,
I'm
also
a
lifelong
resident
of
I'm
sorry
last
17-year
resident
of
hyde
park
and
east
boston.
So
thank
you
free
time.
AO
Chairwoman
and
board
members-
I
am
so
excited
about
this
opportunity
that
that
we
had
before
us.
I
known
tito
jackson
for
the
past,
I
would
say,
maybe
on
and
off
like
15
years
or
so
as
someone
who
has
went
to
a
boston,
public
schools
raised
in
boston,
the
historical
moment
of
of
an
area
that
I
grew
up,
passing
by
and
seeing
tourists
in
that
area
of
faneuil
hall.
AO
It's
touching
and
it's
very
moving
for
me
as
a
latino
and
someone
who
who
has
worked
in
business,
who
is
in
business
whose
family
has
a
historical
connection
with
the
city
of
boston.
AO
Working
with
police
officers
and
with
the
community
to
maintain
peace
was
something
that
was
moving
to
me
and
another.
Now
this
system
moment
where
we
have
the
opportunity
to
bring
someone
in
a
leadership
position
and
an
ownership
position
such
as
tito
is
moving
to
me
to
see
this
again,
having
grown
up
and
being
resident
of
the
city
of
boston
for
most
of
my
life.
AO
So
I
I
completely
support
tito
and
his
especially
his
character.
Thank
you.

you
very
much.

Thanks
danny
mr
jackson
attorney
ross,
if
you
could
just
submit
in
writing
to
the
board
your
operations
plan,
because
the
club
license
cannot
be
opened
to
the
public,
it
can
only
be
open
to
members
of
the
club
and
their
guests,
so
you're
going
to
have
to
come
up
with
a
plan
about
how
security
is
going
to
ensure
that
you're
complying.
That's
an
abcc
rule.
B
So
please
submit
that
in
writing
to
us
so
that
I
have.

have
as
a

have
a
better
understanding
that
you
understand
what
the
rules
and
responsibilities
are
that
come

the
club
license.

W
Yes,
hi
good
morning
attorney
green,
madam
chairman,
and
the
members
of
the
board.
My
name
is
chung
lee,
I'm
counsel
for
the
corporate
applicant
dailongi
hot
pot
inc.
My
address
is
31
milk
street
suite
eight
one,
eight
in
boston,
massachusetts,
yeah
and
we're
hits
this
morning
asking
this
sport
to
approve
the
transfer
of
a
previous
license,
operating
with
1625
exchange
over
on
tremont
street
over
to
the
restaurant
location
at
14,
a
hudson
street
hill
in
boston
massachusetts.
W
This
is
the
location
which
previously
housed
a
an
oriental
restaurant
before
it
has
since
gone
out
of
business
for
the
last
six
or
seven
years.
I
believe
at
least,
but
in
any
event,
my
client
is
hoping
to
revitalize
that
area
by
opening
up
reopening
up
a
new
hot
pot
restaurant
on
that
property.
W
W
The
manager
of
record
will
be
visitor.
Lee
ming
wang
chan,
who
is
on
in
this
meeting,
I
believe
by
zoom.
W
He
is
currently
working
with
great
taste
bakery
and
restaurant
over
in
63
beech
street
as
manager
a
great
taste
bakery
and
restaurant
also
has
the
license,
and
through
this
experience
with
great
taste
for
the
past
10
11
years,
mr
chen
has
has
a
substantial
familiarity
and
understanding
of
the
rules
and
regulations
of
the
the
sport,
abcc
and
commonwealth
massachusetts
as
they
relate
to
the
sale
in
service
of
liquor.
W
The
restaurant
offering
hours
as
we
list
it
on
the
application
is
from
11
8
7
days
from
eleven
a.m
to
two
a.m.
We
met
with
the
two
safety
of
the
two
neighborhood
groups:
the
chinatown
safety
commission
on
february,
the
second,
as
well
as
the
chinatown
neighborhood
commission
over
neighborhood
commission.
Over
on
around
february,
the
22nd
we've
met
with
approvals
on
both
of
them.
W
But,
however,
subsequent
meeting
conversations
with
the
mayors,
the
neighborhood
council
flynn's
office
indicated
that
there
might
have
been
some
discomfort
in
that
area
with
the
2
a.m
closing
period.
W
As
a
result,
I've
consulted
with
my
client:
we
are
asking
the
sport
to
amend
the
closing
times,
seven
days
from
11
a.m,
to
12
a.m,
midnight
to
accommodate
for
any
discomfort
in
the
neighborhood.
I
have
talked
to
my
client
about
that,
and
they
are
agreeable
with
it.
W
We've
also
asked
that
this
board
amend
the
application
to
show
a
14a
as
opposed
to
14
husted
streets,
as
this
is
a
multi-uh
residential
and
commercial
area,
and
the
14a
would
denote
the
ground
floor
as
opposed
to
the
upper
second
third
and
fourth
floors.
So
I
would
ask
the
sport
to
please
amend
the
complication
in
the
last
amendment.
I
would
request
this
board
to
on
the
application,
with
on
the
dba
to
change
it
from
the
la
lange
hot
pot
restaurant
to
the
dynasty
restaurant
again.
W
This
is
done
subsequent
to
the
submission
of
the
application,
and
I
apologize
for
any
inconvenience
question
aboard
by
this.
This
request.
So
basically
this
is
it.
This
is
what
we're
asking
for.
You
know
to
transfer
license
with
a
cv7
day
operating
at
14a
hudson
street.
Thank
you
very
much
and
we'll
be
happy
to
entertain
any
questions
on
the
board.
AJ
W
B
Okay,
what
I'll
do
is
if
he,
if
you
could
find
a
way
of
getting
in
touch
with
him
and
asking
him
to
rejoin
us,
we
can
ask
him
the
manager
of
record
questions.
You
you,
you
actually
covered
the
three
but
okay,
I'd
like
to
ask
him
whether
or
not
he's
familiar
with
the
rules
and
regulations
of
this
board,
the
abcc
and
the
laws
of
the
commonwealth,
but
he
needs
to
appear
before
us
before.
B
W
B
W
B
We'll
do
that
so
then
I'll
ask
my
questions.
If
we,
if
we
can
reconnect
with
mr
chen.
W
A
Before
that,
thank
you
very
much
attorney.
You
had
mentioned
a
couple
of
changes
to
the
app
to
what
is
listed
in
the
notice.
Have
you
submitted
an
application
reflecting
those
changes,
including
the
change,

the
changed

Painting

the
the
purpose
of
the

is
the
100

T
She
used
to
work
as
a
manager
for
a
different
company
and
recently
moved
to
to
work
for
this
corporation
as
a
show
of
course,
and
frankly,
she
hasn't
no
experience
with
the

sale,
liquor

and
for
that
that
we
have
provided
her
with
the

and
the

for
her

study.
It
has
been
has
been
several
weeks
since
after

T
So
hopefully

the

and
this
after
the

AB

As

It's

test.
We
just
have

that
question.
Yes

you
familiarized
yourself,
so
I
just
need
a
yes
or
a
no.
Hopefully
yes,
okay,

you.
Let

You

No,

Lulu

license
at
the
request
of
commuters
and
other
members
of
the
community.
Looking
for
an
option
to
be
able
to
pick
up
a
bottle
of
wine,
a
case
of
beer
to
bring
home
with
them
on
their
commute
from
south
station
to
wherever
they're
heading
along
the
commuter
rail
system.
Q
The
space
is
small,
they've
agreed,
after
speaking
with
the
community
on
no
nips
and
no
singles.
They
have
put
in
place
a
very
extensive
security
plan.
There
will
be
barriers
surrounding
the
open
area
of
the
market
with
one
point
of
entry
and
exit,
so
that
people
cannot
just
enter
the
market
and
grab
something
and
walk
out.
Also,
it
allows
for
the
entire
space
to
be
visible
from
the
employees
working
within
the
market.
They
have
hired
private
security
that
will
be
located
at
that
entrance
at
all
times
when
the
business
is
open.
Q
So
that
again
it
is
an
extra
point
of
security
and
extra
person
and
point
of
contact
for
all
people
entering
and
exiting.
There
will
be
scanners
in
use
for
anybody,
purchasing
alcohol
from
the
location
and
all
liquors
hard
alcohol
products
will
be
stored
behind
the
register,
so
none
of
that
will
be
accessible
to
people
entering
the
market
from
that'll
just
be
beer
and
wine
on
the
shelves
and
in
the
refrigerator
spaces.
Q
Additionally,
the
11
pm
closing
hour
was
of
concern
to
members
of
the
community,
because
other
things
in
south
station
are
not
open
that
late
and
it
the
concern
was
that
it
would
attract.
Maybe
the
wrong
type
of
people
coming
in
and
trying
to
purchase.
Q
We
have
spoken
with
the
community,
heard
them
and
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
working
with
them
very
closely
to
have
this
be
a
well-run
and
well-operated
space,
so
the
actual
closing
hour
will
be
8
p.m,
to
accommodate
the
same
type
of
closing
hour
as
the
other
businesses
that
are
currently
located
within
south
station.
In
our
talks
with
transit
police
as
well
as
the
community.
Q
There
were
concerns
again,
like
I
said
about
possible
public
intoxication
people
drinking
within
the
station,
and
that
is
the
drive
for
the
no
nips
and
no
singles
the
types
of
products
that
are
going
to
be
being
sold
are
going
to
be
higher
end
beer
and
wine
products.
Q
Also,
since
the
pandemic
began,
the
tavern
in
the
square
at
south
station
has
been
serving
alcohol,
alcoholic
beverages
to
go
and
has
not
been
causing
a
large
issue
within
south
station
or
the
commuter
area.
So
we
believe
that
having
this
package
store
is
not
going
to
exacerbate
any
issues
in
the
location
as
well.
Mr
sadiq,
the
proposed
manager
of
record
has
over
25
years
of
experience
in
the
food
and
beverage
and
hospitality
industry.
He
is
a
previously
approved
manager
of
record.
He
has
been
a
manager
of
record
at
locations
within
logan
airport.
Q
He
understands
all
of
the
extra
precautions
that
need
to
be
taken
in
a
high
traffic
location
such
as
south
station,
such
as
logan
airport
he's
a
u.s
citizen,
a
massachusetts
resident.
He
is
familiar
with
the
rules
and
regulations
as
they
pertain
to
the
salem
service
of
alcohol.
For
this
board
the
abcc
in
the
commonwealth
of
massachusetts.
He
is
over
21
years
of
age.
Additionally,
the
the
owners
of
this
proposed
licensee
have
experienced
operating
businesses
in
other
major
hubs
in
the
united
states.
They
are
involved
in
a
package
store
located
in
penn
station
in
new
york.
Q
I
believe
the
board
received
a
letter
from
amtrak
police
stating
that
they've
had
no
issues
with
that
location.
There
they're
hoping
to
put
one
in
port
authority
as
well
as
other
large
hubs
of
transit
venues
within
the
united
states.
They
are
extremely
aware
of
the
specific
nature
of
these
locations
and
all
of
the
other
factors
that
go
into
them
compared
to
a
store
on
the
street.
Q
There's
people
coming
and
going
it's
a
very
transient
space,
but
they
feel
as
though
there
is
a
need
in
the
city
of
boston
for
south
station,
the
transit
hub
for
the
t,
the
commuter
rail
and
amtrak,
as
well
as
buses,
to
have
a
small
package
store
on
site,
so
that
commuters
can
stop
on
their
way
home
if
you're
running
late
after
a
meeting,
and
you
need
to
get
to
something
on
the
other.
On
the
other
end
of
your
commute,
and
you
don't
have
time
to
stop,
you
can
pick
up
a
bottle
of
wine.
Q
That's
really
the
purpose
for
this
space
additionally
to
discourage,
grab
and
go
type
of
purchases.
The
markup
on
the
products
in
this
location
will
help
to
deter
that.
So
a
bottle
of
wine
that
you
might
be
able
to
get
at
another
store
for
12.99
will
be
closer
to
18.99
at
this
location.
Again,
it's
for
those
commuters
looking
to
grab
something
and
not
have
to
make
another
stop
to
be
convenient.
B
I'll
I'll
reserve
my
right
to
ask
questions
after
some
of
the
other
testimony.
Commissioner,
commissioner,
saxon,
do
you
have
any
questions.
A
R
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
this
is
chula
and
foreign
services,
and
a
buddhist
meeting
was
held
on
march
21st
of
our
office.
This
applicant
received
many
letters
opposition
from
residents
in
the
area,
with
concerns
that
the
opening
of
the
liquor
store
could
exacerbate
the
existing
issues
of
crime
surrounding
themselves,
so
stationed
in
this
area.
The
chance
of
police
has
also
submitted
a
letter
opposition.
I
AC
Good
morning,
madam
chair
and
commissioners,
I
am
a
leather
district
resident
who
has
attended
a
number
of
the
meetings
with
the
applicant
and
his
lawyer,
and
we
I've
also
had
an
ongoing
dialogue
with
attorney
costa,
and
I
really
do
appreciate
the
applicant
and
his
lawyer
are
listening
to
some
of
the
leather
district
concerns,
but
they're
still
points
of
contention
and
and
while
we
appreciate
the
no
selling
of
nips
or
singles
that
11
p.m.
AC
Closing
time
is
an
issue
for
this
neighborhood
they're,
actually
two
similar
retail
establishments
within
0.2
miles
of
south
station.
So
there
really
isn't
that
need
those
establishments
close
at
7,
00
pm
and
8
pm.
I've
also
lived
in
the
leather
district.
For
for
a
long
time,
I
can
tell
you
that
even
pre-covered
there
was
no
place
to
buy
a
bite
of
food
after
about
8
p.m,
around
south
station.
So
to
me,
there's
just
there's:
no
need
for
a
liquor
store
to
stay
open
until
11
p.m.
At
that
location.
AC
Q
Thank
you,
catherine.
I
also
just
want
to
mention.
We
did
state
that
the
closing
hour
would
be
8
00
pm,
not
11
p.m.
Any
longer,
after
our
conversations
with
the
community.
A
Thank
you.
For
that
the
next
hand
I
see
race
is
from
matthew,
browdy,
hey.
AU
Thanks,
I'm
matthew,
brody
resident
nearby.
I
just
wanted
to
echo
some
of
the
things
that
catherine
said.
First
of
all
that
I
appreciate
through
our
conversations
acosta
and
the
applicants
that
they
have
actually
been,
I
think
pretty
open
to
hearing
feedback,
and
I
do
really
appreciate
the
adjustment
to
remove,
nips
and
singles
from
sales.
AU
I
think
the
closing
time
is
a
place
that
there's
still
some
contention,
partly
because
the
understanding
that
we
have
as
residents
nearby
is
that
the
application
for
the
license
is
still
11
pm,
even
though
the
closing
time
that's
planned
is
8
pm.
So
I
would
ask
that
if
the
license
is
ultimately
granted
that
the
commissioners
consider
adjusting
the
license
to
reflect
the
planned
closing
time
rather
than
the
11
pm,
so
that
that
issue
could
perhaps
be
resolved.
A
I
think
I'll
turn
it
back
to
the
board.
I
know
you
would
all
reserve
the
right
to
ask
questions
any
questions
from
chairman
joyce
or
the
commissioners.
D
D
Q
The
area
of
like
yeah
that
main
waiting
area
where
the
dining
areas
are
at
the
starbucks
and
that.
AS
AS
Yes,
may
I
add
something:
there
are
four
layers
of
security:
there's
a
security,
that's
provided
by
the
landlord
and
there's
amtrak
and
there's
a
transit
police
as
well.
AS
D
Q
I
apologize,
commissioner,
can
you
repeat
the
question?
I'm
just
not
sure
I
understood.
Are
you
referring
to
the
commuters
or
the
mbta
employer
employees
on
the
commuter
rail.
D
D
AC
D
Q
No
we've
we've
spoken
with
the
mbta
and
the
transit
police.
The
landlord
has
the
south
stations
run
on
a
on
a
master
lease
to
the
the
entity
that
operates
the
station
and
controls
all
of
the
vendors,
so
they've
been
in
contact
with
the
mbta,
specifically
marcie.
B
A
We
do
have
a
letter
of
support,
a
letter
of
opposition,
sorry
from
the
mbta
supervisor
of
the
police,
so
that
is
on
the
file
and
should
be
in
the
records,
but
not
from
the
commuter
rail
directly
and
also
attorney
costa.
I
don't
believe,
we've
seen
the
letter
you
referenced
from
the
amtrak
please
so,
okay.
Q
I
sent
it
over
to
chu
so
I'll,
just
send
it
directly
to
maria

abcc
promulgated
by
the
city
of
boston
and
further
by
the
commonwealth
of
massachusetts.
AW
B
Thank
you
attorney
cola,
russo
and
thank
you,
mr
patterson,
for
joining
us.
Your
attorney
did
cover
the
manager
record
questions.
B
The
only
outstanding
issue
that
I'm
trying
to
work
out
in
my
head,
and
maybe
this
will
be
something
you
come
back
to
the
board
for
will
foundation
kitchen,
be
managing
the
operations
of
the
liquor
there.
Or
will
there
be
a
management
agreement
later
on
with
someone
else.
AW
So
there
is
a
a
management
agreement
in
place:
okay,
part
of
the
application.
We
we
identified
the
company,
it's
called
fermenta
llc.
B
Okay
and
just
to
make
sure
I
understand
the
concept
here,
it's
going
to
be
sort
of
like
a
test
kitchen
in
the
basement
level
or
incubator
kitchen
and
the
basement
level.
People
have
two
or
three
years-
or
I
don't
know
if
it's
one
year
or
they
can
extend
the
lease
for
up
to
three
years,
to
sort
of
get
their
test
kitchen
idea
up
and
going
and
then
there's
a
different
on
the
main
level.
B
People
can
come
and
actually
sit
and
enjoy
the
food
and
beverage
there
for
other
tenants
of
the
space.
Is
that
right,
basically,.
B
I
mean
I
had
the
ability
to
go
and
see
the
site,
so
just
for
clarification
from
my
fellow
commissioners.
It's
something
we
haven't
seen
a
lot
before
the
board.
B
So
at
this
point
I
don't
have
any
questions
for
you
or
the
applicant
commissioner,
karin!
No,
commissioner
saxon,
do
you.
A
Thank
you.
Are
there
any
individuals
who
would
like
to
testify
on
this
matter,
beginning
with
elected
officials
or
their
representatives.
AP
Yes,
good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board
caitlin
stapleton
of
the
mayor's
office
of
neighborhood
services,
all
photos
were
fired
in
our
office
house
in
the
finance
meeting
on
april
12th.
The
meeting
had
no
attendees
and
I
have
received
no
support
or
opposition
from
any
of
the
abutters.
So
at
this
time
we'd
like
to
differ
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
and
just
attorney
caller
russo,
I'm
checking
with
staff,
but
I
don't
believe
that
we
have
an
application
before
us
for
approval
of
that
management
agreement.
So
that
might
be
something
that
we
need
to
come
back
to.
Oh,
actually,
we
might
we'll
check
on
that
and
get
back
to
you.
I
think
it's.
AW
Right
if
memory
serves
me,
we
did
actually
submit
the
the
agreement
and
filled
out
the
abcc
application
for
new
license
the
section
that
pertained
to
management
agreements.
A
Great,
thank
you,
then,
we'll
we'll
just
make
sure,
but
that
thank
you
we'll
get
back
to
you
if
there
are
any
issues
or
anything
missing.
Thank
you
thank
you
and
with
that
the
board
will
take
this
under
advisement,
and
that
is
the
last
of
the
guidance
before
the
board
today.
Thank
you.
Everybody.
