[0:00] Um, good evening. I'm going to call this

[0:01] meeting to order. This is a meeting of

[0:03] the city of Boston licensing board.

[0:05] Today is Tuesday, March 24th, 2026. The

[0:09] time is 6:36

[0:11] p.m. Um, we're located here having our

[0:13] meeting in live person at the Hover

[0:15] Masters Office conference room at the

[0:16] Hover Masters office located at 19

[0:18] Havaloop. Lost the math. Um we are

[0:21] experiencing some technological issues

[0:24] here tonight with Zoom which is the

[0:26] reason why we started late for um we're

[0:30] six minutes late starting the meeting.

[0:31] Um however we're going to do the best we

[0:33] can with what we have which is

[0:35] individual computers being used as

[0:37] opposed to having the big screen. Um

[0:41] so I'll make the public announcement

[0:42] that the public is welcome to attend our

[0:44] meetings in person or alternatively

[0:45] through the Zoom link listed on the

[0:46] agenda. The meeting notice will reflect

[0:48] if this meeting is a Zoom only meeting,

[0:50] which it is not. As amendments to the

[0:53] open meeting law allows, the licensing

[0:54] board may continue to hold meetings

[0:56] remotely. Please note that the in-person

[0:58] meeting will not be suspended or

[1:00] terminated if technological problems

[1:02] interrupt the remote connection. So, if

[1:04] for some reason this connection is

[1:07] discontinued during our meeting, um it

[1:10] is likely that many of our discussion

[1:12] items of the board will be continued

[1:14] until our next meeting. Um, but let's

[1:16] see how this works. So, we'll start with

[1:19] introductions.

[1:20] >> Uh, Rob McCari, building commissioner,

[1:23] >> Natasha Dale Clark, Melissa Prince,

[1:25] licensing board,

[1:27] >> John Leon, licensing board.

[1:29] >> Um, I don't believe member Ted Posta is

[1:31] going to be joining us tonight. Um, so

[1:34] we are going to start our agenda with

[1:37] seasonal package store wine and malt

[1:39] beverage license renewals. um because of

[1:42] the voice awesome system that we have

[1:46] where you upload your documents to the

[1:50] um city website um when we have this

[1:54] meeting to renew, we know that all the

[1:56] documents are on file and we don't have

[1:58] to review them individually anymore. So,

[2:00] it makes things very quick. Um, and I I

[2:04] think um John can agree with me going

[2:07] forward when we do these types of

[2:09] renewals for the package store and um

[2:12] malt beverage license renewals um you'll

[2:15] likely um not have to appear here in

[2:17] person, have the option to sign off um

[2:20] sign on to Zoom and watch, but um we

[2:23] will likely not go through each

[2:25] application of renewal individually

[2:28] unless there is a reason um if there's

[2:30] an issue with the application.

[2:32] Um, so with that being said, um, there

[2:35] are one, two, three, four, five package

[2:39] store wine and malt beverage license

[2:40] renewals and we're going to do that in

[2:43] one motion. So Laura, I know you're here

[2:46] for one of those. Um, and I'll let you

[2:49] address the board if you need to um,

[2:51] after we do the motion, but if you're

[2:52] all set.

[2:54] >> All set. Nothing's changed.

[2:58] >> So um, do we have a motion? Do you under

[3:00] the motions or do you want

[3:02] >> Go ahead.

[3:03] >> Um I'm going to move that we approve

[3:04] seasonal package store wine and malt

[3:06] beverage license renewals for DATI Inc.

[3:09] DBA Tony's variety at 183 Washington

[3:12] Street Pastio Via Corta Inc. I wish I

[3:33] >> So move and a second. Is there any

[3:35] further discussion? No.

[3:36] >> All in favor?

[3:37] >> I opposed. Those votes carry. Um so I

[3:41] meant to read the directions that if you

[3:43] wanted to address us, you can raise your

[3:45] hand using the raise hand button or push

[3:48] star nine um if you'd like to address

[3:51] the board. So, if there is anyone on

[3:53] Zoom, we do have 21 attendees on Zoom

[3:56] right now. If there's anyone on Zoom

[3:57] that wants to address the motion that

[4:00] and the approvals that we just gave for

[4:01] those package stores, um, please use

[4:04] those methods of raising your hand or

[4:07] pressing star 9

[4:12] and I do not see any. Okay, so we can

[4:14] move on. Thank you for coming.

[4:19] >> Good luck.

[4:20] um seasonal package store all alcohol

[4:22] beverage license renewal. We have Energy

[4:24] North, Inc. 73 Essex AB. Um it's my

[4:28] understanding um to our clerk that

[4:30] Carrie cannot attend tonight. However,

[4:32] all the documents are on file. Um and

[4:35] there's been no changes to the license

[4:38] application.

[4:40] So, I'm going to move that we approve

[4:41] the seasonal package for alcohol

[4:43] beverage license renewal for Energy

[4:45] North, Inc. located at 73 Essex Tab.

[4:48] Second.

[4:49] Um, any further discussion? All in

[4:52] favor? I opposed. The vote carries.

[4:57] Okay.

[4:58] >> Yes. Um, we're just going to skip over

[5:00] real quick to common victual license

[5:02] renewals. Um, and get those out of the

[5:05] way and then we will go back to the

[5:07] seasonal license. Um, so common victual

[5:10] licenses, those are not done

[5:12] individually. We do them in one motion.

[5:15] Um, the paperwork is here on file.

[5:18] There's no individual re review re for

[5:20] each of these um required at this time.

[24:25] » Okay. So, when is Tise planning on

[24:28] opening this year?

[24:30] >> We are going to open on Friday, May 8th.

[24:33] >> May 8th. Any changes to the way you do

[24:36] business this year?

[24:38] >> No, it's going to be pretty much exactly

[24:40] the same as last year. We're doing

[24:41] dinner five nights a week, closed on

[24:44] Monday, Tuesdays. Um, dinner service

[24:47] goes from 5 to 9:00 p.m. And we do plan

[24:50] on starting brunch on weekends. Um,

[24:54] we're hoping to start in June, Saturdays

[24:56] and Sundays, 9 to 1.

[24:59] >> And that's something you did last year,

[25:01] too, right?

[25:02] >> We tried to. It was kind of a like

[25:05] staffing thing. It was always in the

[25:06] plan to um we didn't really end up doing

[25:09] it for the full season last year. Um but

[25:13] I know we were approved to. We just

[25:14] chose not to.

[25:17] >> Okay. Um

[25:20] so

[25:22] we received an email as we do every year

[25:24] regarding uh this email is from Anthony

[25:27] >> Pagnati.

[25:29] >> Um I believe you were copied on it. I'm

[25:33] just going to read into the record. I'm

[25:35] sure you're aware of this. Um, but we

[25:37] >> I did respond to it today as well. I

[25:38] don't know if you got the response as

[25:40] well,

[25:41] >> but let me just I don't think I saw the

[25:44] response if you sent me it. Um, but let

[25:46] me just read this into the record. Um,

[25:48] as we usually do, just to have it on

[25:49] bio.

[25:50] >> Sure.

[25:50] >> So, woman from Janet McB

[25:55] and I might say that wrong. I apologize.

[25:57] and Barbara Pagnati. For a number of

[25:59] years, we have annually communicated to

[26:01] the licens and board our concerns and

[26:02] requests regarding the operations of the

[26:04] TIS restaurant. Licens and board is the

[26:06] only official government entity

[26:07] available to us for such communications.

[26:10] We continue to believe that 33 river is

[26:13] not an appropriate location for a

[26:14] restaurant that is licensed to serve

[26:16] wines, malt, cordless, and liquors

[26:18] nightly. Our neighborhood, a village, is

[26:21] residential and in the summer, River

[26:23] Road, a narrow road, is very busy with

[26:25] limited parking. The traffic generated

[26:27] by the police restaurant only compounds

[26:29] a difficult situation. Attaches the

[26:31] email with a list of requests that we

[26:33] have sent to Ariel and Josh Smith. It

[26:35] has changed very little from our past

[26:37] seasons. Their cooperation has been

[26:38] appreciated. Thank you for your time.

[26:41] Um, so you've had a chance to review

[26:44] those

[26:46] requests.

[26:47] >> Yeah, I actually didn't see that first

[26:50] part of it. Maybe that was just sent to

[26:52] you guys, but we did get um where they

[26:57] stated the renewal of your license is

[26:59] coming um and then listed all of the

[27:01] restaurant operations, side deck, noise,

[27:04] kind of everything that we've gone over

[27:05] in the years past and agreed to. Um that

[27:08] is the part that we saw in the email and

[27:10] I responded to them as well today.

[27:13] >> Okay. Do you want to let us know what

[27:15] that response was? Not that anyone ising

[27:18] the the activity at the restaurant

[27:20] except for the board. Just just working

[27:22] so that there's mutual agreement um and

[27:25] a happy little place down there in

[27:27] Anform. So I'm just curious what your

[27:30] response would be to the list that was

[27:32] presented.

[27:33] >> Yeah, of course. I said, "Hi neighbors,

[27:35] there are no changes to the above

[27:37] requests. We plan to open for the season

[27:39] on May 8th, starting with dinner five

[27:41] nights a week and launching weekend

[27:43] brunch in June. that hours will remain

[27:45] the same. We will continue to work

[27:47] diligently with our staff to ensure they

[27:49] understand the operating agreements for

[27:51] running the restaurant in a neighborly

[27:53] fashion. Currently, we have no full

[27:55] buyouts. They had asked if we do um like

[27:57] large parties and buyouts to let them

[28:00] know of the dates. Um so I said

[28:02] currently we don't have any booked for

[28:03] the season. We do have some parties

[28:06] renting the porch during normal

[28:07] operating hours. Their contracts

[28:10] prohibit consuming alcohol off of Tisa's

[28:12] property, including the side deck. I

[28:14] will pass along um the dates of any full

[28:17] buyouts when we book throughout the

[28:19] season.

[28:20] >> Okay. So, it sounds like everything's

[28:22] working. Proud

[28:24] >> I think we've, you know, we have a it's

[28:26] pretty much the same things we've agreed

[28:27] to every season and we, you know, just

[28:29] make sure we always have new staff every

[28:31] year, so we make sure to just go over

[28:32] everything with them as well.

[28:34] >> Okay. Um John, do you have any

[28:36] questions? No, I mean we really haven't

[28:38] heard the last couple years, right? So I

[28:41] don't have a lot of concern because we

[28:42] don't hear from the neighbors um until

[28:44] the annual. So keep doing whatever

[28:47] you're doing because it's working. So

[28:49] thank you

[28:49] >> and you have a great reputation there. I

[28:52] just want to love you.

[28:53] >> Thank you.

[30:36] uh like plans for like acoustic one

[30:40] person, two people things on Thursday

[30:42] nights, which would be no later than

[30:51] then we do have some weddings. So those

[30:54] would go till probably 11.

[31:13] except for on weekends maybe with

[31:14] weddings.

[37:14] >> Uh, no, she hasn't scheduled. Moving on

[37:16] to discussions by the board. An update

[37:18] on the selling of the liquor license

[37:19] from Oliver's hob.

[37:22] >> I think we have Joanne.

[37:38] » Hi guys.

[37:40] >> Hi. How are you? Good. How are you?

[37:42] >> Very good. Um, can you just state your

[37:45] name and address for the record?

[37:47] >> Johanni Miranda, 177 Bridge Street,

[37:51] Beverly, Mass.

[37:53] >> Thank you for coming. Um, we are

[37:55] requested you to be here to give us an

[37:57] update on the sale of your license.

[38:00] >> Yes. So, we have a verbal agreement with

[38:03] the buyer. Um, so the lawyers should be

[38:08] getting in touch with all the paperworks

[38:10] and getting to you guys. Um, they

[38:13] already have a business in Gloucester

[38:15] that is doing really well, so it

[38:17] shouldn't be an issue for them, but

[38:20] that's kind of where we are.

[38:22] >> So, it's a um it's an establishment

[38:25] that's already established.

[38:27] >> Yes.

[38:28] >> Good to hear. Um, okay. Um I just wanted

[38:32] to take note of um the we have rules and

[38:36] regulations of the board and when

[38:38] there's a cessation of operations

[38:41] um it triggers the board to um give

[38:45] notice when a license isn't being used

[38:48] for a period of 30 days or more.

[38:51] >> So that is why we requested you to be

[38:53] here tonight

[38:55] um to give us that update which we

[38:56] appreciate. Um, do you have a timeline

[39:00] for

[39:02] this action, this transaction to happen?

[39:05] >> Yes, it should be within the next couple

[39:08] of months. Um, March or April. Well, we

[39:10] are in March, April or May.

[39:14] >> Okay. So,

[39:15] >> for them to get in touch with you guys

[39:17] and us complete the legal part we have

[39:19] to do.

[39:22] >> So, I am going to ask that you appear

[39:23] again at our next meeting in uh no in

[39:26] May.

[39:27] at our May meeting which is May

[39:32] a really good question something

[39:36] >> May 12th

[39:38] >> so May um I'd like to have you here at

[39:41] the meeting um if the transaction has

[39:44] not been filed

[39:45] >> okay um I understand do take some time

[39:50] but at the same time

[39:52] it not a long time

[39:54] >> right

[39:55] >> I don't know if you can feel a pressure

[39:57] here.

[39:58] >> Not Oh, I feel it. Trust me.

[40:01] >> Squad store is not happy when licenses

[40:03] are not being used.

[40:05] >> Yeah.

[40:05] >> So, um we just take note of that. But,

[40:08] um I'm excited to hear when we hear

[40:12] whatever's going to happen.

[40:15] >> Do you have any questions for us in the

[40:16] meantime?

[40:17] >> No, I don't think so.

[40:20] >> Okay. So, May 12th.

[40:22] >> May 12th.

[40:23] >> We should know more.

[40:25] >> Awesome. Sounds good.

[40:27] >> Good luck.

[40:28] >> Thank you so much.

[40:32] >> Next order of business, did you have any

[40:34] questions?

[40:38] Meeting

[40:40] review of lodging house license and Bob

[40:43] license for open gov.

[40:44] >> Yay.

[40:46] >> So, just like the one day liquor

[40:50] license, we're going to put these lovely

[40:52] guys online.

[40:54] >> Okay. They uh

[40:58] I tweaked a few things for suggestions

[41:01] from dealing with the other ones. So,

[41:03] this is the lodging license. That's what

[41:05] the license will look like. One thing

[41:07] I'm going to have changed that's not on

[41:09] there is uh is there's no expiration

[41:12] date. So, we're going to make sure we

[41:13] get that on there as well. That's not on

[41:16] the license, but it's an easy twinkage

[41:19] on the uh on the pamphlet. When I went

[41:22] through

[41:24] the process on that, it's pretty

[41:27] straightforward. It these are the

[41:29] questions it asks.

[41:30] >> Yeah.

[41:31] >> And this is the root of how it gets

[41:36] approved. just so you understand how it

[41:38] was easy to do this way than to try to

[41:39] hook up my computer.

[41:41] But it's it's the same questions that

[41:43] are on um

[41:46] the written license uh with a little

[41:49] more in case there's an emergency

[41:51] contact number. Uh god forbid something

[41:54] happens and we need to get a hold of

[41:56] someone quickly, an emergency management

[41:58] company, that type of thing. If you

[42:00] enter a yes, you have to list who the

[42:02] management company is, their contact

[42:04] information. Um, it'll start, the

[42:08] approval process starts with Natasha.

[42:10] They'll end up paying a fee after she

[42:13] approves everything and then she waits

[42:15] for a verification from us to do their

[42:18] safety inspection. Then she'll schedule

[42:22] a meeting schedule and put them on a

[42:24] meeting and then once it's approved by

[42:26] the board, then the license can be

[42:28] printed, but not until then.

[42:30] >> Okay.

[42:31] >> Pretty straightforward. Talk to me about

[42:33] permitting authority use. It says police

[42:36] chief and like

[42:36] >> some of that stuff is once you get past

[42:38] which one you're looking at

[42:41] that is basically for us to to to put

[42:43] over that's in case we want the police

[42:46] chief or say yourself to have a a check

[42:49] box in case there's an issue like we get

[42:52] a property. So

[42:54] >> you know we are lodging place that has a continuing problem all the time. We

[42:59] can have the police chief or someone who

[43:02] represents the police department check

[43:04] out to confirm that the problems have

[43:06] been resolved before we issue licenses.

[43:08] Okay, that's what that is. That's just

[43:10] in case we we decide you guys want an

[43:13] extra check box uh on the system.

[43:16] >> We have it for our permit. We do it for

[43:18] all the other departments in case it it

[43:21] wasn't triggered but should be

[43:22] triggered. We can chime in and have them

[43:25] um sign sign that.

[43:28] >> Okay.

[43:29] No, it's great. It's all online.

[43:32] >> Yeah, it's gonna I think it's going to

[43:33] be a lot easier for us to track and keep

[43:36] tabs on them.

[43:36] >> Bob,

[43:37] >> have that one as well. So, it looks very

[43:39] similar.

[43:40] >> Um, license wise. Again, no expiration

[43:43] date. We'll get that changed. Get that

[43:44] fixed because there's an expiration on

[43:46] those, right? They're only good for one

[43:47] year.

[43:47] >> One year.

[43:48] >> Okay. But we'll get that taken care of

[43:50] as well.

[43:51] >> It's January to December. It's not when

[43:54] they apply for a year.

[43:56] >> That's not a problem. We can do that.

[43:57] And then again, it's very similar, but

[43:59] the only difference is on this one, you

[44:02] know, it's this is very similar to the

[44:04] one day liquor license. Yeah.

[44:05] >> About what you can and can't do and

[44:07] everything like that.

[44:09] >> The only little change on this one is

[44:12] the police department has a review on

[44:14] this

[44:15] >> like they do uh because they had a

[44:17] signature on the one day on the uh BYOB.

[44:21] So, we gave them a thought. I will check

[44:23] with Mr. Williams, K Williams right now

[44:26] who uh will be assigned because I think

[44:29] it should be the same person. Whoever

[44:30] does this should do the um one day like

[44:34] a license as well. It should be the same

[44:36] representative. It should make things at

[44:38] least go smoother.

[44:40] >> Okay.

[44:40] >> It's just a matter of clarifying who's got to do the the uh checks on

[44:46] that.

[44:47] >> Um

[44:49] >> the other thing with that is so there

[44:51] are four attachments that are required.

[44:54] And those are the same things that are

[44:56] required uh for the thing you if you do

[45:00] not file something in those spots then

[45:04] you will not get the it won't go forward

[45:06] it stops. So you have to make sure you

[45:09] upload something in those spots and

[45:10] that'll be our job and inspectional

[45:13] services to verify that they uploaded

[45:15] the right paperwork in the right spots.

[45:17] >> Can I add something to that?

[45:18] >> Absolutely. I want to add that they have

[45:20] reviewed the BYOB.

[45:23] >> So, it's on there. So, if you go back on

[45:26] I think a page on that,

[45:28] >> there is a uh there's a link rep right

[45:31] there. You have to click on that that

[45:33] little box that says and then check it

[45:37] and sign your name. And if you sign your

[45:39] name,

[45:39] >> you own it.

[45:40] >> Got it. Perfect.

[45:41] >> Oh, yeah. Make sure. And it brings you

[45:43] right literally when we pick that bar.

[45:45] It opens up a link

[45:47] >> right on the city website on all the

[45:49] rules for

[45:51] >> Okay,

[45:56] » good

[45:57] idea.

[46:07] If you were to actually go in to look at

[46:09] this online, those four tasks are just a

[46:12] blank piece of paper. I just scanned the

[46:13] blank page paper to get it to move

[46:15] through. But we will make sure when we

[46:18] review these things um that the proper

[46:21] documents are there. If they're not,

[46:22] then it doesn't go any further till we

[46:24] get what we want.

[46:25] >> Um I'm thinking we got to add something

[46:27] out.

[46:28] >> What else?

[46:30] >> Permission from the owner of the

[46:33] property

[46:34] >> property in case if they don't own it.

[46:36] Okay, not a problem. And that'll be

[46:38] basically depend on, you know, if you

[46:40] own the property, if you don't own the

[46:42] property.

[46:42] >> So, it's written permission,

[46:43] >> right?

[46:46] » Property owner.

[46:49] >> What I do is I I won't make that a

[46:52] requirement, but we'll check as it goes

[46:53] through the process and we'll ask it and

[46:56] tell them to upload it. But yeah, I can

[46:57] make it a spot, though. That's not a

[46:59] problem. We did it for the other one,

[47:01] too. Well, one day,

[47:03] >> not a problem. Anything

[47:06] else?

[47:06] >> No, it's great.

[47:09] >> Excellent.

[47:10] work.

[47:11] >> Hey, we practice.

[47:12] >> Does that mean

[47:14] our application

[47:15] >> that will put everything for licensing

[47:17] board online?

[47:18] >> So when you go on to the city's website

[47:21] and go on to online pering, go into that

[47:23] system and go down to licensing.

[47:24] Everything that

[47:26] >> you guys deal with will be online

[47:28] >> except for like extension of premise.

[47:31] that um

[47:34] so

[47:38] » I don't I don't know if that's something

[47:39] we want because it's so not a normal

[47:41] >> not a normal

[47:42] >> that's something they're going to have

[47:43] to come to the board to get permission

[47:44] for

[47:45] >> is extension of premise is change of um

[47:49] >> change of manager that's none of that

[47:51] stuff is online that stuff you're going

[47:53] to still have to fill out that work

[47:55] unfortunately

[47:56] >> right that's not

[47:58] >> right okay that's down ABC city.

[48:02] >> Yeah. Yeah.

[48:02] >> So that's

[48:05] >> um

[48:07] that leads me to a question. Okay. So

[48:08] that's a go for that. That's excellent.

[48:10] Okay.

[48:11] >> It makes

[48:12] >> Yeah.

[48:12] >> My job I think

[48:13] >> I think it's going to make everything

[48:16] >> that's the other thing. So like now

[48:17] we'll be able to keep track especially

[48:19] vlog

[48:20] >> and the date and time stamp.

[48:22] >> Ex everything. Yeah. So when they apply

[48:24] everything is time stamp dated in the

[48:26] system. We know exactly what day they went in and it's just

[48:30] >> back and forth. They're all captured.

[48:32] >> Yep.

[48:33] >> Yeah. Everything's off through the

[48:35] portal. So,

[48:36] >> and it's just I think it'll be easier if

[48:38] you guys also track because it's you can

[48:40] go into the system and be able to look

[48:41] at them.

[48:42] >> All you need to literally know what the

[48:44] address is and you can go in and you'll

[48:45] be able to see where they they always

[48:47] are.

[48:47] >> And if someone is having troubles, they

[48:50] can come to the office

[48:51] >> and they can come to the office. We have

[48:52] a computer there that we can guide them

[48:54] through. She's done numerous

[48:56] >> things um

[48:58] >> do little meetings in the conference

[49:00] room

[49:00] >> conference room to help people you know

[49:03] so absolutely and

[49:05] >> while praying the rent some of my staff

[49:06] as well so she's there when she's not

[49:08] there I'm always there so are always

[49:10] >> pretty knowledgeable on this on the

[49:12] system

[49:14] >> even Brian saying yeah

[49:18] >> the IT guy says yeah

[49:20] >> so the other thing that's not quite on

[49:22] here because I know

[49:25] This is part of as did you get an email

[49:28] from the maps

[49:30] about

[49:32] goals that he wanted?

[49:33] >> That's not going to be discussed.

[49:34] >> Okay, beautiful.

[49:35] >> We are moving on to

[49:38] rules and regulations of master law

[49:42] section 13812D.

[49:45] >> We protect.

[49:53] Okay.

[49:54] >> You want to continue that?

[49:56] >> Yeah.

[49:57] >> Next one.

[49:59] >> Listen, this is becoming a problem.

[50:02] >> I know.

[50:05] >> When do you want to continue on?

[50:06] >> Well, we can continue it only because we

[50:09] haven't had any requests.

[50:11] >> So, I guess it's not a problem. But if

[50:13] it if it if we do get a request, it's a

[50:17] problem.

[50:18] >> Um, which we can deal with. So let's

[50:20] just continue it and let's just table it

[50:23] for now.

[50:24] >> Okay,

[50:26] >> we can do that.

[50:28] >> And we will review that topic when we
