From YouTube: Licensing Commission of 4-13-23
Description
City of Chelsea
A
Good
evening,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
thank
you
for
joining
us.
This
is
a
meeting
of
the
Chelsea
licensing.
Commission
today
is
Thursday
April
13
2023
I
am
joined
this
evening
by
fellow
Commissioners
Mike
mcateer,
Emily
cherniac
and
Alexandria
Christmas,
and
myself,
Marty
McAlpine
and
Cheryl
Watson
Fisher,
our
city
solicitor
and
Naomi
LeBron.
Our
licensing
admin
and
Peter
I.
Do
not
remember
your
full
Christopher
I,
fully
killed
it
I
apologize
on
that
Christopher
I,
don't
remember
your
full
name,
so
I
apologize.
A
C
C
We
also
want
to
mention
that
last
time
there
seemed
to
be
a
little
confusion
around
what
the
commission
and
the
Department
thought
about
the
issuance
of
the
marijuana,
the
last
marijuana
retail
licenses.
We
want
to
recognize
that
the
process
for
the
issuance
of
the
marijuana
license
has
changed
due
to
recent
facts
that
several
potential
applicants
were
approved
by
the
city
land
use
boards.
In
our
February
meeting,
we
decided
to
have
a
Level
Playing
Field
for
all
those
who
applied
and
have
public
comment.
C
As
you
can
see,
there
were
two
applicants
at
the
last
meeting
that
were
found
to
be
suitable
and
issued
licenses.
Although
the
applicants
were
complete,
the
commission
and,
and
then
one
that
was
approved,
subject
to
submitting
financials,
which
I
believe
those
financials
were
submitted.
Yeah,
the
commission
announced
it's
in
its
intentions
in
that
February
meeting.
C
Unfortunately,
some
of
the
applicants
were
not
fully
prepared,
I
believe
the
one
that's
on
tonight
actually
came
down
with
covet,
unfortunately,
and
could
not
timely
file
his
the
department
misunderstood
and
thought
that
the
commission
wanted
all
the
applicants
at
one
time
at
this
time.
Although
the
licenses
had
been
approved,
those
licenses
approved
conditionally
based
on
the
ccc's
final
determination
and
issuance
of
the
occupancy
permit.
That
was
just
step
one.
Basically,
they
still
have
to
build
out
their
space
is
pursuant
to
the
special
permit
and
the
building
permit.
C
Then
they
still
go
back
to
the
CCC.
Who
will
re-again
look
at
every
single
thing:
pull
quarries,
look
at
their
finances,
get
their
finances
in
place.
A
lot
of
the
initial
finances
is
about
finding
a
location
and
build
out
the
location,
and
then
they
they
seek
at
their
occupancy
permit
time,
their
final
license
with
their
CCC
license
from
the
licensing
administrator.
So
if
there
are
any
issues
the
licensing
administrator
is
going
to
come
to
you
and
say
they
no
longer
meet
the
conditions,
and
we
now
have
an
open
license.
A
Thank
you,
Cheryl
I
appreciate
that
I
know
there
was
a
little
bit
of
confusion.
There
was
some
some
back
and
forth
as
to
why
some
things
were
being
reviewed
and
other
things
didn't
appear
to
match.
So
we
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
everybody
understood
that
we
were
doing
our
best
to
make
sure
things
were
as
Fair
as
possible
in
a
situation
where
we
knew
there
was
a
large
number
of
applicants
with
a
minimal
number
of
licenses
available.
C
An
adjustment
so
what's
pending
before
the
council,
the
hourly
so
a
couple
of
things,
we
have
to
change
zoning
to
some
specific
and
that's
the
hour.
For
some
reason,
the
hours
of
operation
were
put
in
the
zoning
Amendment,
not
the
regular
ordinance
and
the
ordinance
itself.
There's
a
review
on
the
amount
of
retail
licenses
that
we
are
going
to
issue
right
now.
We
are
capped.
At
six.
A
D
I
just
have
one
question
in
regards
with
all
the
applicants
that
was
presented
to
us
on
the
last
meeting:
I
I
guess:
I
was
still
confused.
All
of
them
had
the
provisional
licenses,
except
for
one
so
going
forward.
Should
we
open
up
for
another,
you
know
a
request
for
a
license:
should
they
have
their
provisional
license,
approved
or
sent
to
us
before
they're
presented
to
the
commission
so.
C
I'm
not
sure
the
one
tonight
has
a
provisional
license.
We
were
following
what
we
thought.
The
board
wanted.
Okay,
so
a
provisional
license.
When
we
initially
did
the
rules
and
regulations,
we
thought
a
provisional
license
meant
a
lot
of
weight
with
the
CCC
it
really
for
them.
It's
just
a
preliminary
step.
E
C
C
The
CCC
is
so
behind
on
issuing
those
those
licenses.
Since
we
started
this
process,
it's
changed.
People
are
issued
a
provisional
and
they've
been
sitting,
for
example,
one
of
the
licensed
situations.
Last
week
they
have
a
provisional
in
another
city
and
and
they've
had
it
for
a
while.
So
I'm
just
saying
is
that
a
provisional
is
sort
of
like
something
we
were
trying
to
avoid.
C
If
you
get
this
provisional
and
you
sit
on
it,
it's
sort
of
like
holding
liquor
licenses,
that's
that's
what
we
thought
we
were
doing
when
we
required
it,
but
it
doesn't
prevent
someone
from
just
holding
a
license.
So
I
recommend
that
within
a
couple
of
months
we
bring
some
of
them
back
because
one
do
they
have
the
provisional.
Do
they
get
their
final?
Where
what
is
their
progress,
because
there's
no
reason
to
hold
up
licenses?
C
F
F
A
The
one
Alex
brings
up
a
good
point,
so
one
of
the
questions
that
I
would
have
is,
if
we're
seeing
that
these
provisional
licenses
are
no
longer
something
that
is
necessarily
something
we
should
be
viewing
as
a
requirement
at
the
start.
Do
we
need
to
do
something
to
edit
the
rules
and
regulations
to
make,
so
it
no
longer
states
that
in
there?
So
there's
no
question
as
to
why
a
decision
was
made.
Yes,.
E
C
Community
agreements,
the
current
retail
licenses
did
not
need
to
be
amended
because
they
came
at
they
just
signed
host
Community
agreements
that
were
just
on
one
document,
but
Western
Front
rise
and
Joe
locan
all
had
to
sign
and
amended,
and
we
no
longer
get
that
added
funding.
We
will
review
the
regulations,
mind
you.
We
were
ahead
of
the
curve
in
Chelsea
with
these
regulations.
We
just
wanted
to
have
something
in
place.
We
can
review
them.
Other
cities
and
towns
now
have
regulations.
A
A
This
is
the
commission
received
a
communication
regarding
taxi
fare
rates.
We
received
several
letters
and
I
will
read
the
first
one
as
they
are
all
virtually
the
same
letter
and
inform
you
of
who
sent
them
the
first
one
States
I
am
Nelson
Alvarado
owner
of
City
Taxi,
Incorporated,
respectfully,
and
kindly
asking
you
for
an
increase
on
the
taxi
fare.
The
reason
that
I'm
asking
you
is
because
the
increase
on
the
gasoline
and
the
cost
of
living
is
getting
very
expensive.
Also,
the
vehicle
repairs
too
I
will
appreciate
it
if
I
can
get
help.
C
A
G
I'm
John
Flynn
from
Fiesta
Shows,
starred
Road
in
Seabrook,
New
Hampshire,
here
to
request
I,
believe
it's
our
fourth
event
down
on
Eastern
Ave.
The
only
modification
from
past
years
will
be
we're
completely
changing
the
entrance.
Now
that
the
fuel
company
or
gas
company
has
gone,
we've
got
permission
to
utilize.
G
That
area
so
it'll
be
a
in
my
opinion,
a
More
Level,
it's
all
paved
so
the
general
public
can
come
right
in
and
we'll
have
a
separate
egress
for
them
to
go
out
which
I
have
gone
over
the
plan
with
a
police
chief
or
the
or
the
department.
Yet,
but
I
think
it's
going
to
be
in
terms
of
a
conveyance
of
people
a
lot
easier
for
people
to
get
around.
They
don't
have
to
go
down
that
side.
Road
to
come
in.
G
G
A
A
G
Get
confused
easy,
no
I
wasn't
quite
sure
when
I
did
that
the
amplification
is
the
music,
that's
on
the
rides
like
the
Merry-Go-Round
music
and
that
traditionally
I
think
we
shut
it
off
at
nine
o'clock
at
night,
not
that
we
have
any
abutted
neighborhoods
there.
It's
mostly
all
businesses
but
I,
believe
it's
nine
o'clock.
We
shut
that
down.
G
H
I
H
I
F
C
G
J
Thank
you
for
the
record,
Royal
visionette,
325
commandant's
way
and
while
Fiesta
Shows
has
operated
there
at
this
present
site
for
four
years
of
Africa
had
been
within
the
city
for
close
to
more
than
20.
they've
had
a
working
relationship
not
only
with
the
different
departments
over
the
years.
They
know
each
other.
He
knows
with
the
drill,
basically
of
what
has
to
be
done.
J
There
was
a
reference
to
maybe
another
issue
last
year
and
I
think
what
it
was
is
working
with
John
depriest.
We
wanted
to
make
sure
we
had
the
conservation
committee,
because
there
was
a
map
that
we
had
to
follow.
We've
worked
and
we
have
the
same
floor
plan
or
layout
rather
to
make
sure
that
we
that
they
set
up,
not
Beyond,
I,
think
there's
a
75
foot
or
75
feet
from
the
shoreline,
and
but
it's
the
same
area.
J
I
do
want
to
say
that
again
the
support
that
I
have
been
providing
are
speaking
in
favor
to
John.
If
he
has
to
shows
it,
because
it's
really
one
of
the
biggest
fundraisers
we
have
here
in
the
city
years
past
John
has
we've
asked
him
to
donate
a
system
of
jobs
program
this
year,
it's
more
to
Chelsea,
High
scholarships,
I've
been
working
with
Kiwanis
lately
and
I'm.
Now,
a
member
and
as
such,
my
goal
here
is
to
to
help
their
fundraising
and
one
of
their
main
goals
is
to
provide
scholarships.
J
You
know
over
the
years
when
I
was
a
counselor
I
helped
raise
funding
and
awareness
for
the
summer
jobs
program.
They
really
are
meeting
their
meets.
You
know
their
needs
I
think
specifically
because
they
are
getting
a
little
extra
money.
So
in
talking
to
John
I
said
you
know
all
right,
they're,
Robert,
Vine
I,
think
you
know.
Where
else
can
we
do
some
good
and
I
think
you
know
providing
money?
J
Just
Chelsea
High
School
students
through
this
Kiwanis
would
be
a
worthy
cause,
so
this
is
going
to
be
advertised
as
such
as
a
scholarship
race
towards
Aquinas
and
other
than
that
again
long.
History,
no
issues
over
the
years
that
they've
had
you
know.
As
far
as
you
know,
the
patrons
it
really
is
a
big
family
event.
Every
time
I
go
down
there,
lots
of
family
I.
Think
a
lot
of
families
are
looking
forward
to
it.
It's
like
a
kickoff
to
the
springs
kickoff
to
the
summer.
J
So
it's
a
really
good
good
field
of
rent
and
again
with
the
new
entrance,
we
should
be
able
to
take
care
of
the
concern
between
the
squabble
between
the
neighbors.
It
was
more
of
a
squabble
between
305
and
295.,
but
we've
you
know
addressed
that
and
if
this
is
approved,
I
also
will
again
reach
out
to
the
school
department.
The
superintendent
has
been
great
in
allowing
us
John
Rather
to
use
their
parking
lot.
J
As
Surplus
and
of
course,
he
takes
upon
himself
to
make
sure
that
a
sweeper
goes
by
at
the
end
of
the
event,
to
make
sure
that
by
Monday
morning,
when
the
teachers
show
up
everything's
clean
again
so
but
yeah
it
should
be
a
fun
and
hopefully,
fingers
crossed
great
weather.
So
I
hope
that
the
board
will
vote
in
favor.
Thank
you.
Thank.
D
B
I
F
G
L
I've
read
the
police
report.
I've
had
an
opportunity
to
review
it
with
my
clients,
we're
not
disputing
the
facts
here
today.
I
guess
the
issue
comes
down
to
there
should
be
a
sanction.
What
should
the
extinction
be?
Obviously
they
don't
want
a
revocation,
but
we
read
the
report,
so
the
facts
are
not
in
dispute.
It's
just.
What
do
we
do
with
those
facts?
What
I
can
say
is
the
business
has
been
around
since
2017?
L
They
currently
have
15
employees
they're
all
tip
certified
the
woman
who
was
the
waitress
on
the
day
in
question
Juliana
she
was
suspended
for
a
couple
of
weeks.
The
business
had
a
an
immediate
they
meet
every
week,
but
they
had
a
what
you
call
it
emergency
meeting
afterwards
to
say
that
this
type
of
behavior
can't
be
tolerated
in
the
future,
I
told
him
he's
lucky
that
the
person
didn't
drive
that
nice.
You
know
I
mean
those
are
the
type
of
concerns
that
I
relate
to
him.
L
He
was
not
there
during
that
time
period,
but,
like
I
said
they
spoke
with
the
staff,
they
suspended
the
woman,
they
didn't
fire
her
and
if
they
can
explain
it,
they
didn't
fire
it
because
they
felt
she'd
been
working
it
for
a
year
and
a
half,
and
they
thought
she
was
a
good
employee.
Just
made
a
mistake
that
day,
so
they
didn't
want
to
let
her
go
but,
like
I
said
they're
not
here
to
dispute
the
facts
before
the
commission.
L
A
I
mean
one
of
the
things
that
I
would
like
to
address
before
I
open
it
up
to
everybody
else
is
not
only
clearly
reading
that
police
report,
your
your
team,
did
not
do
their
job
by
any
stretch
of
the
imagination,
but
in
addition
to
that,
you
reference
that
they've
only
been
in
business
since
2017.,
well,
they've
also
been
before
this
commission
several
times
and
they've
only
been
in
business
since
2017..
To
me,
that
is
actually
highly
concerning,
because
that
means
they're
not
taking
their
roles
seriously.
L
L
A
No
and
I
get
that
there
is
definitely
some
situations
there,
but
that
still
has
several
other
kind
of
strikes
against
them
there
and
I'm
sorry
serving
before
you
even
handed
your
license.
That's
a
big
one
serving
while
you
were
suspended.
That
means
that
you
chose
to
ignore
what
the
commission
said.
The
last
time
that
you
came
before
and
were
suspended,
that
that
doesn't
really
make
me
feel
like
you're,
going
to
do
what
you're
supposed
to
do
moving
forward.
L
A
Now,
they're
here
before
us
again,
so
generally,
an
establishment
shouldn't
really
be
coming
before
the
licensing
commission
multiple
times.
That
typically
means
they're
not
doing
what
they're
supposed
to
there's
lots
of
establishments
that
exist
for
decades
and
never
go
before
a
licensing
board.
So
to
have
somebody
that's
coming
before
the
board
regularly
is
a
little
concerning
to
me
fellow
commissioners,.

So
I
I
want
you
guys
to
understand.
Why
is
this
is
so
serious?
You
are
in
a
neighborhood
full
of
families.
You
over
serve
a
person
who
could
go
into
their
car
or
cause
A
disruption
in
a
residential,
neighborhood
and
a
family
that
your
establishment
is
right
across
from
the
park.
I
understand
what
you're
telling
me,
but
what
I
see
is
there
is
no
supervision.
You
have
a
waitress
who's
just
over
serving
him
you're
very
lucky.
He
didn't
get
into
an
incident.
D
I'm
very
disappointed.
I
am
here
to
help
the
community
and
have
you
know
like
restaurants
like
yourself,
to
serve
and
and
provide
the
service
that
you
want
to,
but
I
cannot
condone
this.
This
is
one
probably
many
you
just.
This
was
probably
just
caught
I'm
very
disappointed,
I,
don't
know
what
we're
gonna
do,
but
I
mean
there
has
to
be
a
lesson
learned
here.
A
I
agree:
this
is,
this
is
not
the
first
time
your
employees
were
clearly
familiar
with
that
individual.
My
guess
is
that
this
is
not
uncommon
for
this
individual
to
probably
consume
a
decent
amount,
because
nobody
seemed
very
surprised
by
the
demeanor
and
you
you
stated
something
about
how
he
was
going
to
get
in
a
car
he
refused
to
get
in
the
car
as
a
licensed
establishment.
We
are
responsible
for
what
that
person
does
after
we
serve
them.
A
A
It
doesn't
matter
that
you
did
the
right
thing,
then
and
put
them
in
a
car
which
didn't
even
happen
in
this
case.
What
matters
is
that
you
over
served,
because
whatever
happens
then
ends
up
your
fault.
That's
why
you
are
lucky
that
nothing
happened
and
nobody
was
killed,
because
your
establishment
would
be
to
blame.
A
That's
that's
the
fun
of
owning,
an
establishment
that
sells
liquor
and
that's
why,
when
we
do
these
things,
it
is
so
important
that
we
follow
the
rules
and
it's
not
easy.
You
guys
are
running
a
business.
You
want
to.
You
want
to
sell
to
your
customers,
but
you
want
to
be
able
to
continue
to
sell
to
your
customers.
So
that's
where
you
have
to
do
the
responsible
thing
and
shut
your
customers
off
before
they
are
intoxicated
to
that
level.
A
You
need
your
staff
to
actually
follow
the
tip
certification,
so
if
they
have
actually
all
completed
that
tip
certification,
that
tells
them
that
they
need
to
slow
down
that
process.
That
tells
them
that
when
you
have
somebody
that's
drinking
very
quickly,
you
slow
that
down.
You
bring
them
water,
you
take
a
little
longer
to
give
them
drinks.
A
We
were
on
I,
think
it
was
beer
number
12
and
your
waitress
was
putting
a
beer
at
the
table
while
he
was
still
in
the
bathroom
and
it's
not
like
your
establishment
was
so
busy.
She
wasn't
going
to
have
another
chance
to
get
over
to
him.
She
had
all
the
time
in
the
world.
So
your
team
is
completely
to
blame
for
putting
that
beer
there
so
quickly.
A
The
individual
who
drank
it
should,
in
my,
in
my
opinion,
as
somebody
who
is
a
licensee
I,
always
believe
that
the
person
who
does
it
should
also
be
to
blame.
But
as
the
person
who
holds
the
license,
we
are
more
liable
than
the
person
that
consumed
it.
It
is
your
job
to
make
sure
that
you
are
enforcing
those
rules
and
you
can't
be
there
24
7..
A
That
means
your
team
has
to
be
trained
properly,
every
single
person
and
if
you
can't
be
there
and
your
wife
is
in
the
back
and
she
can't
watch
the
front,
then
you
need
somebody
else,
who's
responsible
out
in
that
front.
That's
going
to
follow
the
rules
and
protect
your
business,
because
that
is
not
protecting
your
business,
and
that
shows
that
you
had
two
individuals
that
were
over
serving
this
person
because
he's
clearly
drunk,
and
you
had
two
employees
that
over
served
him.
A
P
I
live
100
yards
away,
I
heard
the
call
the
drunk
gentleman
against
the
wall,
the
Good
Samaritan
woman.
That's
a
store!
My
90
year
old
mother
goes
to
probably
five
times
a
day,
because
she
can't
walk
that
far.
This
business
has
been
before
you
before
many
times
the
neighbors
to
the
right
of
them.
If
you're
looking
out
the
dry,
cleaner
I
bring
my
closer
every
day.
They
complain
to
people
urinating
I
drive
by
every
Friday
night
Saturday
night
Sunday
night
groups
loitering
packing
like
wherever
they
want
to
park.
P
I
noticed
the
same
pickup
trucks
there
from
nine
in
the
morning
till
nine
at
night,
I
don't
have
the
plates
with
me.
We've
been
before
I've
been
well
doing
this
since
2007.
in
the
past
you've
seen
businesses
that
you
can't
tell
to
serve
the
service.
This
is
clear.
This
service
there's
this
place,
should
be
out
of
business
I'm,
a
neighbor
I'm
sick
of
walking
by
there
at
night
I.
It's
it's
just
been
at
least
four
or
five
times
we
go
there
all
the
time
in
licensing
inspections
which
we
do
to
every
business.
P
They
don't
get
it.
It
is
a
Scourge
to
the
neighborhood.
If
you
ask
the
businesses
the
Prattville
map,
the
young
woman
who
work
there,
you'll
get
the
same
answers
I'm,
just
hoping
that
the
board
really
takes
this
serious
I've,
been
here
since
2007
and
since
they've
had
the
business
they've
been
before
you
at
least
twice
a
year
for
infractions.
This
is
the
most
daunting
like
I,
don't
care
if
they
go
to
the
ADCC,
no
one's
not
proving
service
here
so
I
hope
you
take
that
into
consideration.
Thank
you.
D
L
You,
but
the
only
way,
I
know
that
there's
nothing
before
the
board
that
says
there's
people
from
his
business
urinating
in
the
dry
I
mean
I.
Don't
have
that
before
me
just
because
the
chief
says
it
I'm
supposed
to
accept
that
as
a
fact
and
I
don't
know
if
those
people
left
his
restaurant,
so
I'm
gonna
ask
you
not
to
take
that
into
consideration
simple
as.
M
A
B
B
B
B
M
M
Okay,
let's
say
that
was
a
mistake:
she
worked
there.
It's
like
a
family
restaurant.
We
don't
know
that
she
worked
there.
She
cannot
cross
and
there
even
she's,
not
working
that
day,
but
now
we
are
have
meeting
every
Wednesday
with
everybody
up
there.
They
put
all
those
points
every
day
there
and
I'm
there
all
the
time
when
they
go
to
the
restaurant.
There
I'm
there
all
the
time
and
they
know
they
see
me
there
at
any
time
they
walk
inside.
They
talk
to
me.
O
A
To
stop
well
I
mean
the
biz.
The
restaurant
industry
itself
is
not
an
easy
business.
Nobody,
nobody
ever
claimed
it
was
an
easy
business.
Somebody
thought
it
was
a
good
idea
and
there's
a
reason
why
most
people
that
open
up
in
this
business
fail.
You
don't
want
to
fail
because
you're
over
serving
that's
you,
don't
you
don't
want
to
fail
because
you
had
a
customer
get
killed
or
go,
kill
somebody
else
and
based
upon
what
we
saw.
A
That's
what
you're
setting
yourself
up
for
the
the
concern
that
I
have
is
whatever
ruling
we
make
tonight.
You've
disrespected
the
ruling
of
the
commission
before
so
how?
How
are
we
to
feel
confident
that
this
time,
you've
learned
your
lesson
and
you're
going
to
do
the
right
thing
and
follow
through
on
that?
Because
I
don't
feel
confident
that,
whatever
ruling
we
give
you,
you
are
a
going
to
comply
with
whatever
ruling
we
make
and
B,
you
are
rectifying
these
issues,
so
they
don't
happen
again.
D
Plan
going
forward,
you're
saying
that
you're
meeting
once
a
week
on
Wednesday,
but
what
are
you
talking
about
like
for
me
for
someone
to
be
tip
certified
I?
Think
everyone
should
now
have
that
renewal?
You
should
have
a
plan
to
have
a
manager
or
supervision
on
the
floor
for
five
hours.
I,
don't
think
I've
seen
anyone
come
check
to
see.
What's
going
on
on
the
floor,
even
if
you
said
your
wife
was
cooking
not
once
she
come
out
and
say:
maybe
you
shouldn't
you
know
serve
this
guy.
He
did
not
drink
water.
D
A
And
it's
not
like
every
I
mean
a
the
business
was
not
that
busy
that
day
B,
not
that
many
people
were
eating
food.
So
if
your
wife
is
a
supervisor
on
property,
it
the
only
way
that
I
could
understand
the
lack
of
supervision
would
have
been
if,
if
that
place,
was
crazy
busy
or
if
every
single
person
that
was
in
there
was
eating
food
and
there's
food
coming
out
and
the
person
who's
supervising
is
on
the
line
cooking,
the
food,
then
okay,
she
didn't
have
a
chance
to
come
out
and
check
on
that.
A
M
L
L
Not
mean
I
just
want
to
be
yeah
I'm,
just
I'm
concerned
when
a
chief
of
police
comes
before
you
with
evidence
that
I
don't
have
and
tells
you
to
shut
a
business
down.
That's
my
concern
simple.
As
that
I'm
asking
you
not
to
revoke
their
license,
which
is
different
than
what
the
chief
is
doing.
I
don't
live
there,
but
are
we
giving
more
weight
because
he
lives
a
hundred
yards
away.
L
A
Nobody
on
this
commission
is
sitting
there
going
he's
the
chief
of
police.
What
he
says
is
the
end-all
be-all.
We
have
the
paperwork
in
front
of
us
that
has
what
has
actually
come
before
the
commission,
and
that
is
an
unacceptable
amount
of
time
to
have
come
before
the
commission.
It
is
not
what
the
chief
stated
as
a
number,
but
as
a
member
of
the
public
that
is
upset
there's
an
exaggeration
just
like
we
would
have
from
any
member
of.
A
F
M
M
A
H
Is
there
anything
harsher
I?
Just
look:
I
was
a
waitress
for
a
long
time
and
and
I
worked
in
DC,
where
there
are
no
rules
and
like
that
wouldn't
even
happen.
You
know,
I
just
I
just
feel
like
I
would
have
fired
her
first
of
all
because
she
clearly
over
served
on
purpose.
I
I.
Just
think
that
one
three
days
of
suspension
is
not
enough.
In
my
opinion,.
C
C
So,
just
so
that
they're
clear,
there's
a
finding
that
chapter,
138
section
69
serving
alcohol
to
an
intoxicated
person
has
been
found
section
2.08,
P
of
the
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Chelsea
licensing
commission
by
selling
or
delivering
alcohol
beverages
to
an
intoxicated
person.
Do
you
find
that.
A
A
In
my
opinion,
I
agree
that
it
should
be
harsher
ruling
on
the
matter
when
we
have
done
rulings
in
the
past.
You
have
not
honored
what
has
come
before
you
I,
don't
think
three
days
is
teaching
you
a
lesson.
You've
had
longer
suspensions
in
the
past
and
you
chose
to
ignore
them.
I
think
if
we
just
give
a
three-day
ruling
on
this
I
think
that's
two
minor.
What
we
saw
before
us
is
beyond
unacceptable.
D
D
F
D
D
D
C
A
A
Well,
if
we
have
valid
certifications,
certifications
have
to
be
renewed
every
three
years.
I
believe
is
the
standard
for
the
ServSafe.
If
that's
the
program
that
he's
doing
so,
I'd
like
to
see
that
there
are
valid
ones
and
then
I
would
like
to
see
that
you
actually
have
your
staff
follow
that
taking
that
training
is
not
just
a
stamp
in
a
book
and
we
never
have
to
pay
attention
to
it
again.
I
can
tell
you
that
if
you
come
before
us
on
a
future
matter,
it'll
be
a
lot
longer
than
a
week.
A
That
is
it
on
tonight's.
Next,
up
on
the
agenda,
we
have
a
public
hearing
to
consider
a
retail
marijuana
establishment
license
application
for
concrete
Garden
Incorporated
DBA
concrete
Garden
at
307,
Broadway,
Chelsea,
Mass,
I
I
will
say
just
before
we
kind
of
get
going
here.
We
do
have
another
meeting
coming
up
behind
us.
Okay,
so
we
do
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
asking
all
of
our
necessary
questions,
but
that
we
pay
attention
to
the
time
and
kind
of
keep
things
moving
as
much
as
we
can
just
so.
Everybody
has
heard
no.
Q
I
Q
Q
A
Q
So
at
the
public
hearing,
the
only
person
that
had
something
to
say
was
north
south
mental
institute.
That
is
right
next
door
to
us
and
since
then,
I
have
spoken
to
them
and
we
we
want
to
do
some
things
with
them.
As
far
as
the
AAA
program,
things
like
that,
so
we're
looking
to
partner
up
with
them
in
the
future.
A
Q
A
A
Q
A
You
also
note
in
your
executive
summary,
there's
a
comment
of
providing
a
solution
for
the
demand
of
medicinal
cannabis.
Yes,
but
you're
applying
for
a
regular
retail
cannabis
license.
So
I
was
just
questioning
why
you're
referencing
the
medicinal?
If
that's
not
the
type
of
license
that
you're
applying
for
so.
Q
F
Q
E
D
Q
I
I
have
not
worked
in
the
dispenser.
I
do
have
a
retail
experience.
We
are
social
Equity
as
well
as
economic
empowerment,
so
the
Cannabis
commission
did
put
us
through
courses
about
the
business
of
cannabis,
so
we
spent
pretty
much
the
Summers
of
2019
until
covet
happened
going.
They
put
us
through
several
courses
and
seminars
where
we
did
learn
the
business
of
cannabis
and
I
am
employed
at
Harbor
House
Collective
I
am
their
vegetative
lead
for
the
cultivation
team.
Q
C
That's
what
we
did
so
what
we
did
with
the
liquor
licenses.
We
didn't
have
one
for
7-Eleven,
remember
so
we
penned
it.
We
bring
them
in
to
make
sure
they're
still
in
compliance
but
I'm,
subject
to
the
next.
The
next
in
line
when
they
a
license,
does
come
up.
If
you
approve
them,
they
would
be
next
in
line
yeah.
E
N
G
E
A
H
C
R
R
I
am
Richard
Sioux
I'm,
the
chief
compliance
officer
at
Joe,
locand
DBA,
Harbor,
House
Collective,
located
at
80
Eastern
Avenue.
We
are
applying
for
an
amusement
and
entertainment
license
over
the
past
year,
we've
most
likely
applied
for
maybe
four
or
five
one-day
licenses
in
relation
to
community
engagement
events
and
customer
engagement.
R
Events
that
have
used
with
that
have
used,
DJs,
DJ
amplification
and
certain
sound
systems
in
in
the
interior
of
our
dispensary,
and
so
we
do
feel
that
applying
for
a
year-long
license
would
definitely
allow
just
us
to
have
more
events
and
also
just
save
the
hassle
of
applying
for
the
one-day
licenses.
We
also
are
applying
just
to
employ
the
use
of
a
Bluetooth
speaker
in
our
dispensary
so
that
we
can
have
just
some
ambiance
music.
R
Have
seven
televisions
they're
currently
used
for
menus
for
our
dispensary
I,
actually
wasn't
entirely
sure
if
they
needed
to
be
included,
they
do
occasionally
have
educational
videos
that
are
in
relation
to
products
that
we're
offering
so
I'm,
not
entirely
sure.
If
that
falls
under
entertainment
or
just
under
our
menu.
