I'm a motion to extend buuck
[21:52]
about four months to the big
[21:54]
board meeting for four months
[21:55]
so that be april, may, june,
[22:00]
july to july 11th.
[22:04]
I uh post that you have told
[22:05]
you that whenever you get done
[22:06]
you just go see mr. Berger.
[22:07]
you good to go.
[22:10]
>> thank you so much.
[22:14]
bigger board administrative
[22:15]
hearings for flip side come on
[22:21]
our shore drive and mr. Frost.
[22:22]
thank you.
[22:25]
chair.
[22:29]
as it was explained earlier,
[22:29]
this committee had to undertake
[22:33]
sales in less than a two year
[22:33]
period.
[22:34]
the city ordinance requires
[22:37]
that by a certain eight they
[22:40]
file a remedial plan which
[22:41]
is to lay out how they are
[22:44]
going to fix the issue that
[22:45]
caused the under h sale and to
[22:48]
pay their fine.
[22:49]
there's a deadline to do both.
[22:52]
it is my understanding that
[22:52]
this committee did neither.
[22:56]
the ordinance automatically
[22:59]
says that if they are late
[23:00]
automatically the law
[23:01]
department files a non
[23:04]
compliance complaint.
[23:05]
the law department has done so
[23:05]
as referenced at the beginning
[23:07]
of the meeting.
[23:11]
nevertheless the permit is here
[23:12]
tonight to explain the
[23:15]
situation and answer any
[23:16]
questions that the members
[23:19]
of the beer board may have at
[23:22]
the end of the explanation and
[23:26]
question and answer time it'll
[23:27]
be up to the members of the
[23:30]
beer board to accept the
[23:34]
explanation and take no further
[23:35]
action or if the beer board
[23:38]
determines that further action
[23:39]
is needed, there needs to be a
[23:42]
motion second and passing to
[23:46]
refer the permit the to the
[23:49]
hearing officer.
[23:53]
yes, I sincerely apologize when
[23:57]
I met with officer pressley at
[23:58]
excuse me I need your name and
[24:19]
address for mr. Nelson one
[24:20]
twenty four south north shore
[24:20]
drive.
[24:21]
>> thank you.
[24:22]
I believe when I met with
[24:22]
officer pressley about this
[24:23]
incident at task class and I I
[24:24]
misunderstood the instructions
[24:25]
and apparently did not get the
[24:26]
mail at my address either.
[24:26]
we are taking this very
[24:27]
seriously and I I apologize for
[24:28]
wasting your time.
[24:29]
we are 100 percent behind this
[24:29]
and taking very seriously I
[24:31]
complete misunderstanding on my
[24:34]
part.
[24:38]
I have any questions for him.
[24:39]
I just want to confirm that
[24:42]
everything that was supposed to
[24:43]
be done by this certain date
[24:46]
has been done.
[24:47]
the committee has paid the fine
[24:50]
as of yesterday and filed a
[24:51]
revised remedial plan that has
[24:51]
happened.
[24:54]
it's a copy that's in front
[24:54]
of your seats.
[25:00]
ok, so um, mr. Frost, if he
[25:04]
went to a hearing office, if it
[25:05]
went to a hearing, he would
[25:08]
have to produce nothing more
[25:12]
than he has already produced,
[25:12]
correct.
[25:14]
>> well, let me pass that a
[25:14]
little closer.
[25:14]
yeah.
[25:16]
tell me is already going to a
[25:19]
hearing but they didn't comply
[25:20]
with getting things done in a
[25:23]
timely matter that's happening
[25:24]
no matter what you all decide
[25:24]
tonight.
[25:28]
but if he if you all refer him
[25:31]
onto the hearing officer for
[25:32]
the underage sale, which
[25:35]
is what is before you tonight,
[25:36]
then you would then he would
[25:38]
also have to explain a
[25:39]
situation there to a hearing
[25:41]
officer.
[25:45]
thank you.
[25:48]
>> I'm sorry I did pay my fines
[25:52]
to the state and I want to make
[25:53]
this very clear that by no
[26:00]
means did I intend to lapse on
[26:00]
this.
[26:03]
I I just made a mistake and I
[26:07]
apologize wholeheartedly.
[26:11]
we have every intention to take
[26:11]
care of this.
[26:15]
I have id scanners.
[26:16]
I've talked to my entire staff.
[26:18]
we're taking this very
[26:18]
seriously.
[26:22]
I wholeheartedly apologize.
[26:23]
yeah.
[26:27]
I mean I just want to make this
[26:27]
comment.
[26:28]
I've actually been to union
[26:30]
jacks establishment.
[26:31]
I think it's a great
[26:31]
establishment friendly
[26:34]
environment.
[26:35]
this is no my first time up
[26:38]
here on the board and I'm a
[26:39]
firm believer in giving people
[26:42]
that opportunity to make things
[26:42]
right.
[26:45]
and so I just you you being a
[26:46]
man of your word, I want to
[26:50]
give you that opportunity.
[26:50]
thank you.
[26:52]
so I just wanted to make that a
[26:52]
note.
[26:53]
thank you very much.
[26:57]
>> yeah, I'll I'll agree but
[26:58]
you know, you do have a couple
[26:59]
of strikes against you so you
[27:01]
know, obviously you know, you
[27:02]
do take it seriously and clean
[27:05]
up the process because and when
[27:06]
you are asked to provide the
[27:07]
information part of the reason
[27:08]
you ask to provide it a timely
[27:09]
manner so that we have a chance
[27:10]
to review it prior to this
[27:10]
meeting.
[27:13]
so but that being said, I agree
[27:14]
with councilman grant and
[27:17]
everyone so I've read the
[27:17]
report of course listen to your
[27:21]
testimony so I do not intend to
[27:24]
make a motion to send them to
[27:25]
the hearing office for further
[27:28]
action.
[27:35]
councilman parker?
[27:36]
um, no, I didn't have anything
[27:40]
on this item.
[27:40]
oh, okay.
[27:41]
well I was ok.
[27:43]
um I've been for a while there
[27:47]
were so I guess you know do I
[27:50]
formally make a motion to
[27:51]
approve because we do not make
[27:55]
a motion to basically yeah.
[27:59]
what did you do that to people.
[27:59]
>> I'm kidding.
[28:00]
I'm supposed to rule this day
[28:03]
that's what I'm just quoted
[28:03]
from up here.
[28:03]
yeah.
[28:06]
so we're not taking no action
[28:10]
so it's a good thing for you
[28:10]
know, wonderful.
[28:13]
thank you very much.
[28:14]
>> I appreciate your time.
[28:14]
yeah.
[28:16]
I just have a question for
[28:17]
clarity because uh council
[28:21]
frost said that they're going
[28:22]
to a hearing regardless and
[28:25]
then um councilman honeycut
[28:26]
just said he was not referring
[28:29]
them to a hearing so so they
[28:33]
are going to a hearing because
[28:34]
they failed to comply with the
[28:37]
timeline for the remedial plan
[28:40]
and the fine uh, there was the
[28:41]
opportunity this is probably
[28:45]
not the best legal terminology
[28:46]
for a double dip at the hearing
[28:49]
if you all did not like what
[28:50]
this gentleman had to say or if
[28:52]
the situation was very
[28:56]
egregious.
[28:57]
so what would have happened had
[29:00]
you all sent it to the hearing
[29:01]
officer they would have amended
[29:03]
their noncompliance law, would
[29:04]
have amended the noncompliance
[29:07]
complaint to add the underage
[29:08]
sale issue.
[29:11]
but if you all take no action,
[29:12]
it will only be heard in terms
[29:16]
of not doing things in a timely
[29:16]
manner.
[29:23]
ok, thanks for clarifying your
[29:27]
could we make sure that we give
[29:27]
a good address on file because
[29:28]
they're probably going to send
[29:31]
some more certified mail to
[29:31]
certainly yeah.
[29:32]
so make sure you're getting
[29:35]
everything.
[29:35]
yeah, I just also want
[29:36]
everybody to know there was
[29:38]
another part to this y'all saw
[29:39]
where he was or where his
[29:40]
business was issued a citation
[29:43]
about cas he took care of that
[29:43]
immediately.
[29:44]
>> as soon as they were issued
[29:46]
that citation he came to class
[29:47]
like the next week and took
[29:48]
care of that.
[29:49]
so that was that's null and
[29:50]
void issues.
[29:51]
did I actually had that taken
[29:52]
care of in court?
[29:54]
they didn't have to appear on
[29:55]
that.
[29:56]
so he was very timely about
[29:56]
that.
[29:58]
but we want to make sure that
[29:59]
mr. Byrd and with mr. Johnson
[30:02]
here and everybody that we've
[30:02]
got a good address that we can
[30:04]
get that I do need to change my
[30:06]
mailing address because that
[30:06]
is not my main office.
[30:10]
so that's I think that's a big
[30:10]
reason why I haven't been
[30:11]
receiving mail to take care
[30:14]
of all the you to provide the
[30:17]
address now know ok I'm sorry.
[30:17]
thank you.
[30:20]
I can email you the new
[30:21]
certified address form and and
[30:24]
thank mark.
[30:25]
yes thank you very much.
[30:28]
ok you're good to go.
[30:28]
all right thank you.
[30:31]
I appreciate your time.
[30:32]
thank you.
[30:35]
I'd like that sheriff amelia
[30:35]
parker.
[30:36]
miss parker.
[30:36]
yeah yes.
[30:40]
now you have your love for rim.
[30:40]
yes well it's really for I
[30:42]
guess maybe the end of the
[30:43]
meeting I turned it on wanting
[30:46]
to hear more about haulover but
[30:47]
we went through that section so
[30:48]
I was hoping maybe at the end
[30:51]
of the meeting we could get an
[30:51]
update on holyrood since
[30:54]
holyrood was still in the
[30:55]
house.
[30:56]
we can do oh, he's still here.
[30:57]
we can do that.
[30:57]
absolutely amazing.
[31:00]
>> thank you.
[31:04]
>> so the only thing left we
[31:06]
have is the castle some plants
[31:10]

[32:18]
now welcome to the cast.
[32:19]
>> it's your lucky day mr.
[32:20]
frost.
[32:23]
so how you can explain this
[32:24]
explain all the catholic stuff
[32:25]
please sir.
[32:29]
all right.
[32:30]
>> so where was the billboard
[32:33]
we're under item twelve of your
[32:33]
agenda.
[32:36]
other business hearings on
[32:37]
permits compliance with cast
[32:41]
class requirements as called
[32:44]
for in the beer code.
[32:46]
you know when new people new
[32:49]
permits are getting their
[32:49]
permits, they have to go
[32:52]
through the task class that's
[32:53]
noted in the paperwork and mr.
[32:57]
byrd will say if they've done
[32:57]
that or not.
[32:58]
but there's also a requirement
[33:00]
that a person on the permit
[33:03]
must do that on an annual basis
[33:04]
.
[33:08]
and thanks to the audit
[33:11]
committee and bobrowski rider
[33:12]
and the city internal auditor
[33:16]
and officer pressley, they
[33:19]
looked at and we have a number
[33:20]
of committees that have not
[33:23]
been complying with their
[33:24]
annual task class requirement.
[33:28]
so before she left office we're
[33:31]
board chair rider sent out a
[33:35]
letter to the people that were
[33:40]
the most delinquent and if they
[33:42]
hadn't gotten their class up
[33:44]
today they were to have been at
[33:47]
the february beer board
[33:47]
meeting.
[33:48]
>> but the good news was all
[33:51]
of those permits did get the
[33:54]
task class taken care of and so
[33:55]
that was not on your february
[33:58]
agenda.
[33:59]
unfortunately, you know,
[34:03]
there's a list of people that
[34:07]
are on the agenda for tonight
[34:10]
because they are out
[34:11]
of compliance with the annual
[34:14]
requirement.
[34:14]
officer pressley will tell you
[34:18]
that the class is given out
[34:19]
probably 50 times a year every
[34:39]
thursday.
[34:40]
all of the people not in
[34:41]
compliance received a letter
[34:42]
mr. Johnson provide me a copy
[34:43]
of letters that went out on
[34:43]
january 28th.
[34:45]
explain the situation and about
[34:45]
how they need to come into
[34:46]
compliance and then if they did
[34:47]
not come into compliance, a
[34:48]
second letter I believe was
[34:48]
hand delivered that was dated
[34:49]
march 12th and if those
[34:53]
businesses have not come into
[34:53]
compliance, they're supposed to
[34:56]
be here tonight where they need
[34:58]
to be able to explain why they
[35:01]
have not gotten this done and
[35:05]
however many years officer
[35:09]
pressley might have that have
[35:12]
that information to share and
[35:13]
the reason they're out
[35:15]
of compliance, they you know,
[35:16]
you all could decide to send
[35:19]
them to a hearing officer to
[35:21]
help get them back into
[35:24]
compliance and there could be
[35:27]
fines associated with that.
[35:36]
so I have a question.
[35:36]
yes, ma'am.
[35:40]
so if people are out
[35:41]
of compliance, are they in
[35:44]
effect operating without a
[35:48]
permit?
[35:48]
I don't know.
[35:49]
that would be a determination
[35:52]
for the law department.
[35:52]
I don't make those decisions
[35:53]
right.
[35:53]
so that was my question.
[35:56]
so it's like if they go to a
[35:57]
hearing is that what they
[35:59]
determine?
[36:00]
>> thank you for that just
[36:00]
fine.
[36:01]
thank you.
[36:02]
know, that could be a
[36:03]
suspension or revocation
[36:03]
of their beer permit.
[36:07]
>> ok, we wouldn't necessarily
[36:08]
do that.
[36:09]
>> no to the it's done by
[36:11]
hearing officer good.
[36:12]
thank you councilman parker's
[36:14]
that well I do remember
[36:15]
discussion perhaps at the audit
[36:18]
committee or perhaps previously
[36:22]
your board meeting about um
[36:26]
their annual process for
[36:26]
renewing their permit.
[36:28]
they have to pay a fee every
[36:30]
year or something like that.
[36:33]
and there was we were wondering
[36:34]
when they go through that
[36:35]
process why they couldn't check
[36:38]
to see if they had taken the
[36:41]
class at that point and that
[36:45]
seemed to be, uh, not a good
[36:46]
not a process that we could
[36:48]
move forward with.
[36:49]
um, so it seems like they're
[36:53]
able to continue to operate
[36:56]
under that permit and and
[37:00]
believe that their permit uh,
[37:01]
is still good even if they
[37:08]
haven't taken the class.
[37:08]
I understand what you're
[37:09]
saying.
[37:10]
uh, council member parker but
[37:15]
the uh there as a permit holder
[37:19]
your charged with being
[37:20]
responsible for knowing the law
[37:22]
that applies to the running
[37:26]
of your business, whether it's
[37:27]
a beer permit or another
[37:30]
situation in my opinion the
[37:32]
current board chair and the
[37:37]
former board chair gave plenty
[37:41]
of notice encouraging these
[37:44]
places to come up into
[37:45]
compliance and with two
[37:48]
different letters and for
[37:52]
whatever reason they did not.
[37:53]
if they're here tonight, they
[37:54]
have the opportunity to try to
[37:59]
explain the the circumstances
[38:03]
and I recommended a certain
[38:07]
action.
[38:10]
well, uh, no, I'm not uh I
[38:13]
think you you could depending
[38:14]
on what you hear from people
[38:18]
you could take no further
[38:19]
action or you could send them
[38:22]
to a hearing officer for a
[38:22]
suspension revocation hearing.
[38:27]
I would anticipate that if
[38:28]
someone is sent to suspension
[38:28]
revocation hearing there's a
[38:31]
pretty good chance they'll go
[38:32]
to the task class real soon to
[38:34]
try to avoid the situation just
[38:38]
like the gentleman that was
[38:49]
here from union jacks.
[38:57]
ok, quality restaurant concepts
[39:01]
doing business applebee's.
[39:01]
there you go.
[39:05]
yeah, my name is jared hixson.
[39:08]
twenty nine twelve knoxville
[39:08]
center drive.
[39:09]
>> thank you.
[39:12]
officer pressley, can you give
[39:16]
us uh yes I can tell you that
[39:16]
this business has not attended
[39:19]
since april 13th of two
[39:20]
thousand twenty three so that
[39:20]
would mean that I would have
[39:23]
expired in the following year
[39:24]
april 13th of two thousand
[39:27]
twenty four I have sent them
[39:28]
letters from my office.
[39:30]
I have actually personally
[39:31]
served some one myself out
[39:32]
there with a letter prior to
[39:35]
this process starting to try to
[39:36]
encourage them to come.
[39:39]
but we've not had anybody come
[39:40]
to attend.
[39:40]
we've been unsuccessful with
[39:50]
that.
[39:55]
um, I I'm I'm move we send this
[39:55]
person to a hearing officer
[39:57]
second ok.
[40:01]
excuse me go ahead.
[40:02]
>> give us an explanation
[40:02]
please.
[40:06]
midway through the year of two
[40:07]
thousand twenty four human
[40:09]
resources came in and either
[40:10]
fired or transferred three out
[40:10]
of the four managers frommeyer
[40:13]
restaurant.
[40:14]
so I was left to run my
[40:17]
business by myself and due to
[40:18]
time management wasn't able to
[40:20]
make it to the class.
[40:21]
ok I still move that this go to
[40:24]
a hearing officer I'll second
[40:28]
that in discussion.
[40:31]
I do have a question is he
[40:32]
already enrolled for the test
[40:32]
class?
[40:35]
have you already enrolled for
[40:36]
the two years previous?
[40:37]
I kept up with it, yes sir.
[40:39]
ok, so two years ok thank you
[40:39]
sir.
[40:42]
any further discussion what two
[40:47]
years sorry for twenty one in
[40:50]
twenty two correct up to
[40:51]
twenty three twenty four three
[40:53]
years ago when mr. For
[40:57]
twenty four and twenty five and
[41:01]
have gotten letters and served
[41:02]
and haven't been able to find
[41:05]
the time to go so I think that
[41:06]
deserves letting a hearing
[41:09]
officer decide what to do
[41:10]
rather than us.
[41:12]
>> I think councilman grant was
[41:13]
trying to ask is are you
[41:14]
already listed on the beer
[41:16]
permit someone who can actually
[41:17]
attend the class or do you need
[41:21]
to go through the process
[41:21]
getting listed on the permit?
[41:22]
no, ma'am.
[41:23]
I'm already on your are you on
[41:23]
there?
[41:24]
you're fine.
[41:25]
thank you.
[41:25]
thank you.
[41:26]
thank you.
[41:27]
well, I'll add a distinction
[41:28]
that the person taking the task
[41:32]
class has to already be on a
[41:32]
beer permit.
[41:35]
so I mean I if I'm for example
[41:36]
if I'm not on the beer permit
[41:39]
for you whatever not watsons it
[41:40]
doesn't matter if I take the
[41:46]
task class that doesn't count
[41:46]
everything.
[41:51]
ok, kathleen parker um for me
[41:55]
since this is a new uh process
[41:58]
a new attempt to ensure
[42:02]
businesses are complying with,
[42:03]
you know, long established
[42:07]
policies, um, for me it would
[42:11]
be reasonable once the letters
[42:14]
are sent out uh and they appear
[42:19]
on our agenda if they attend
[42:20]
this meeting.
[42:21]
this is our opportunity to hear
[42:21]
from them.
[42:27]
um, and at that point reiterate
[42:31]
that the annual task class
[42:35]
is is um must be complied with
[42:39]
and then if that is not
[42:40]
complied with once they appear
[42:43]
on our agenda then we send them
[42:44]
to a hearing.
[42:47]
but I do like the opportunity
[42:48]
for individuals to come
[42:51]
forward, explain why they
[42:52]
haven't complied us to be able
[42:55]
to have a conversation
[42:59]
emphasized the importance that
[43:00]
they do comply and then at that
[43:03]
point if they don't send them
[43:04]
to a revocation hearing that
[43:10]
would be my suggestions and
[43:14]
acknowledging that we are after
[43:15]
many, many years of having this
[43:16]
policy in place, we are now
[43:19]
taking steps to ensure that the
[43:22]
policy is followed.
[43:23]
>> maybe we can take a few
[43:26]
steps before sending folks to
[43:30]
revocation hearing.
[43:31]
we have a motion on the floor
[43:34]
and a second I'm going to speak
[43:35]
to my motion.
[43:35]
ok, go ahead.
[43:38]
so um, the reason I made my
[43:41]
motion is I don't think is due
[43:42]
to a lack of trying on people
[43:45]
to get people into compliance
[43:46]
and if this had just been
[43:49]
missing for one year maybe but
[43:50]
this is missing it two full
[43:54]
years and here we are it's
[43:54]
twenty twenty six.
[43:57]
so I just respectfully disagree
[44:01]
and I intend to vote in favor
[44:04]
of sending this to a hearing
[44:05]
because I think until we start
[44:11]
holding people accountable um
[44:12]
we're going to continue to deal
[44:14]
with this.
[44:18]
yeah I mean I agree officer
[44:20]
pressley says she made a number
[44:22]
of attempts they use mail.
[44:23]
she went out there physically
[44:23]
herself.
[44:27]
I don't think this is an attack
[44:27]
on this gentleman.
[44:28]
I think it had actually caused
[44:31]
him to say, you know what, let
[44:32]
me go ahead and get this test
[44:34]
certification so and I hope
[44:35]
that's how you take it.
[44:38]
so again, I'm going to support
[44:39]
vice mayor if you get on this
[44:42]
I'm more than happy to sit in
[44:43]
the class regardless of what
[45:03]
the outcome is.
[45:04]
thank you, sir.
[45:06]
I certainly think that it
[45:07]
nobody else can think ok, so
[45:08]
let's take a vote all in favor
[45:09]
of the motion I opposed.
[45:10]
ok, no so it will go but you
[45:11]
can do that caste class any
[45:12]
thursday before it'll be this
[45:12]
thursday.
[45:13]
>> man there you go.
[45:14]
>> thank you so much.
[45:15]
will I need to follow up with
[45:16]
anybody or notice on the
[45:17]
hearing the law department will
[45:18]
you will be in contact with
[45:18]
you.
[45:19]
I'll send a letter right now.
[45:19]
yes.
[45:20]
letter a letter.
[45:21]
ok, thank yes thank you.
[45:22]
dollar general on sutherland
[45:26]
is anybody here from dollar
[45:26]
general store at all?
[45:27]
no.
[45:40]
ok this morning which one is s
[45:40]
rexroad.
[45:45]
>> ok you come up when this
[45:50]
first talk about so we have to
[45:51]
get rid of it ok because I just
[45:54]
figured uh my name smacking
[45:55]
inman one ten s ridge road
[45:58]
three seven down to four not so
[45:59]
ok once I got sorry finish the
[46:01]
tournament because they're all
[46:02]
together I chance just they're
[46:05]
out there at the front we have
[46:06]
to do the far other the first
[46:07]
ones first I'm told that was my
[46:09]
bad so this is the one on
[46:13]
sutherland avenue and there's
[46:15]
no one here for that.
[46:21]
so mr. Frost, what we do is I
[46:23]
move approval.
[46:24]
I move to send them to a
[46:28]
hearing officer second second a
[46:30]
discussion officer
[46:31]
repressively.
[46:32]
how far out of date is this
[46:34]
location?
[46:35]
so this location is about the
[46:38]
same as the other it seven
[46:39]
twenty of twenty three when
[46:42]
intended they have a little bit
[46:44]
of what I would call kind of a
[46:44]
special situation and the fact
[46:46]
that the gentleman I spoke to
[46:46]
there he just became the
[46:49]
manager there and he is not in
[46:50]
the permian at this time but he
[46:51]
had actually attended cast
[46:54]
within the past year for a
[46:54]
business he prior worked at.
[46:56]
so if he would go down and get
[46:58]
on a permit that would be a
[46:59]
real simple quick resolve for
[47:02]
this for his business if he
[47:03]
just goes down and gets on the
[47:04]
permit we talked about it he
[47:05]
seemed open to do in that he
[47:06]
just wanted to talk with the
[47:10]
district manager first before
[47:11]
he did so I've not heard back
[47:11]
from him.
[47:12]
that was friday went served
[47:13]
that notice to him but I would
[47:15]
like to see them take here that
[47:19]
easily that way.
[47:20]
I'm sorry I'm just so confused
[47:24]
because by I mean these the
[47:27]
business owners, the people who
[47:28]
know about this have been
[47:29]
getting notified for a couple
[47:31]
of years and that is what
[47:35]
bothers me the most that the
[47:36]
people have been notified
[47:39]
is not like nobody told them
[47:40]
there it was time to do their
[47:41]
task class.
[47:43]
they just didn't do it and
[47:43]
nothing had ever happened to
[47:47]
them and the board has decided
[47:48]
to take its obligation
[47:51]
seriously, which is if you're
[47:52]
out of compliance, you're out
[47:53]
of compliance and there's a
[47:56]
consequence a rule not enforced
[47:58]
is not a rule.
[48:02]
so you know, I don't want a I
[48:06]
don't want to unduly punish
[48:07]
someone.
[48:10]
but if corporate headquarters
[48:11]
isn't paying attention, that's
[48:14]
my concern.
[48:19]
so I have a motion if you all
[48:20]
disagree about that, I'll say
[48:28]
ok, thank you and further
[48:29]
discussion, charlie.
[48:30]
yeah, I would agree and there's
[48:33]
like four from dollar general
[48:36]
and on this thing and I think
[48:37]
it does it's probably not as
[48:40]
negative toward the people that
[48:41]
are showing here but it's a
[48:42]
corporate think and I think
[48:44]
until we start enforcing this
[48:44]
is going to keep going on.
[48:53]
so I agree with emotion so I
[48:58]
don't favor the post have it so
[49:02]
the one sitharaman will be sent
[49:04]
to hear those amherst road
[49:08]
is the other one and I don't
[49:09]
think there was anybody here
[49:09]
either.
[49:17]
so nobody here looks like I'm a
[49:20]
one we we call it at amherst
[49:27]
road uh dollar general was only
[49:27]
one person.
[49:28]
all right.
[49:31]
I move that we send this to a
[49:32]
hearing officer as well.
[49:35]
>> so and just for you go spend
[49:46]
their day uh they tended the
[49:47]
same day to sutherland avenue
[49:49]
seven twenty of twenty three ok
[49:53]
you second that annazette thank
[49:53]
you.
[49:54]
any discussion groups all in
[50:01]
favor I suppose I have it that
[50:02]
will be sent to a hearing
[50:02]
officer as well.
[50:04]
now south ridge road we have
[50:08]
somebody here to talk about uh
[50:11]
hi my name is making inman uh
[50:12]
one ten south ridge road three
[50:15]
seven nine to four um to speak
[50:16]
on why my store it is basically
[50:19]
turnover.
[50:20]
I don't know if you guys go
[50:20]
into generals' but it's mostly
[50:23]
one employee and it's you try
[50:24]
to do the most you can in my
[50:27]
predicament I've been in this
[50:28]
store since twenty twenty four
[50:29]
but I just become into
[50:31]
management.
[50:31]
my district manager keeps
[50:32]
changing so since october we've
[50:35]
had a district manager that's
[50:36]
kind of given us guidelines on
[50:39]
what we're supposed to do.
[50:39]
I did receive a letter in
[50:42]
february I believe I showed up
[50:43]
to the class but didn't really
[50:44]
have much direction from my
[50:46]
district manager so I didn't
[50:47]
know that you had to do cash so
[50:49]
I had the card so I left.
[50:50]
I haven't had the opportunity
[50:51]
to get back in there.
[50:54]
I'm the only manager on duty in
[50:57]
my store and even today I work
[50:58]
till I came here so it's just
[51:01]
hard to get both but I have
[51:02]
intentions on go into the
[51:02]
class.
[51:05]
I just that's that's the reason
[51:06]
that location I can't speak for
[51:06]
the other locations but turn
[51:09]
over and just have and help
[51:10]
is the reason my location
[51:10]
is delayed.
[51:13]
I don't even know when the last
[51:16]
time they were there in the
[51:20]
class when I was uh this one
[51:21]
was actually five four
[51:24]
of twenty three.
[51:25]
are you listed on the permit
[51:26]
for this business?
[51:26]
have you been through
[51:28]
background check?
[51:29]
I haven't done the background
[51:29]
check.
[51:30]
I went to the city guindi
[51:32]
billion bailout application.
[51:32]
I didn't do the background.
[51:35]
I haven't done the fingerprints
[51:36]
, the background.
[51:37]
I literally got an application
[51:39]
from my district manager met me
[51:40]
today because she knew I was
[51:41]
coming here and gave me an
[51:43]
application to fill out and
[51:44]
said she was sending a bunch
[51:44]
of us to the class next
[51:45]
thursday.
[51:47]
but every time that I've gotten
[51:48]
something I've tried to go
[51:51]
forward with it I just in the
[51:51]
other direction there's really
[51:54]
no information being shared in
[51:58]
those two before.
[52:05]
ok, so buckmeier I think I've
[52:06]
met with you before at the
[52:09]
class and then you told me to
[52:10]
follow back up with yeah.
[52:11]
you look familiar.
[52:11]
yeah.
[52:13]
we talked to maybe about a
[52:14]
process there's something yeah.
[52:17]
>> so again my my my issue
[52:20]
is not with you.
[52:24]
oh I know but I think we need
[52:24]
to get district management's
[52:28]
attention that this is a big
[52:29]
deal if they're going to sell
[52:32]
or sell beer and they're stores
[52:33]
that they find time for y'all
[52:33]
to go.
[52:36]
yeah, no completely.
[52:37]
and so because you shouldn't be
[52:40]
this stressed out about trying
[52:41]
to manage and still get there
[52:44]
without even you know anything
[52:45]
about it like I didn't know
[52:45]
about the meeting.
[52:46]
yeah.
[52:50]
so who comes does the owner
[52:54]
come to the hearing at one time
[52:58]
it was the district manager,
[52:58]
ok?
[53:00]
and it's not in the it has been
[53:01]
the manager with district
[53:02]
manager I think one time as
[53:03]
best I recall since I've been
[53:08]
on I'm going to make a motion
[53:12]
that we send it to a hearing
[53:12]
officer and it's not you.
[53:13]
but I just think district
[53:15]
management needs to get the
[53:19]
idea that this is you can't let
[53:20]
stores go for two years without
[53:23]
making sure they're in
[53:27]
compliance intercession.
[53:28]
yes.
[53:30]
yes.
[53:34]
thank you.
[53:38]
if this is the process that the
[53:39]
beer board wants to continue to
[53:42]
take, I just want us to
[53:45]
question why we ask that
[53:46]
individuals appear before us
[53:50]
for this meeting if we know
[53:50]
we're automatically going to
[53:51]
send them to a revocation
[53:57]
hearing.
[53:57]
I'm satisfied with individuals
[54:01]
who appear at the revocation
[54:04]
hearing being given that chance
[54:06]
to take the class because as
[54:09]
you pointed out, we may not be
[54:13]
sending the message to the
[54:14]
people that we need to send the
[54:16]
message to but we are making
[54:17]
the working class kind of run
[54:22]
around a little bit more and I
[54:23]
think that we can resolve it
[54:24]
here in this meeting.
[54:26]
but if we're not going to do
[54:27]
that, let's think about how we
[54:30]
are using this meeting time if
[54:31]
they're automatically going to
[54:37]
be sent to the hearing seems to
[54:38]
me like some of that would be
[54:39]
dependent on how far out
[54:40]
of date they actually were.
[54:41]
it just so happens that dollar
[54:44]
general doesn't seem to their
[54:45]
management from wherever they
[54:48]
live.
[54:49]
I don't know where that is is
[54:52]
not very communicative.
[54:54]
yeah, that would seem to be the
[54:54]
same huh.
[54:56]
I think I think the standard
[54:59]
we're setting tonight
[54:59]
is everybody goes to the
[55:00]
hearing.
[55:01]
I don't think that's true
[55:03]
because we all have different
[55:04]
dates like I don't like I don't
[55:25]
know what she's got on here.
[55:26]
I also think different
[55:26]
situations tonight have someone
[55:27]
if they just put their name on
[55:28]
the permit they've already
[55:29]
taken the class then they will
[55:29]
comply.
[55:30]
so it seems all situations at
[55:30]
least for tonight we are
[55:31]
sending to a hearing well we
[55:32]
don't know yet because there's
[55:33]
someone here that have
[55:34]
different situations besides
[55:36]
the ones we've heard so far, so
[55:37]
I'm going to speak because my
[55:38]
wife's been on and everyone
[55:38]
else seems to just jump in.
[55:39]
>> so I'm going to yes.
[55:40]
I do see a difference thinking
[55:41]
about the generals that we've
[55:42]
just seen a cascade of that
[55:45]
this individual is speaking
[55:46]
about really not having any
[55:48]
communication not being in the
[55:52]
info stream and a willingness
[55:52]
to be here.
[55:53]
and I do think it's we're
[55:56]
trying to get to the district
[55:57]
person who can make a change
[55:57]
here.
[55:58]
but I think there's a good
[56:00]
faith and in her being here and
[56:01]
doing the right thing and
[56:02]
trying to do so for this one I
[56:04]
would not want to send them on
[56:08]
but to provide some other
[56:11]
another month or something so
[56:12]
the person gets here to to do
[56:15]
we need to have done ok.
[56:17]
I'd like to amend my motion ok
[56:19]
to postpone this for one month
[56:23]
to give them time since she's
[56:24]
here to get in compliance I
[56:28]
will second that motion.
[56:29]

[1:01:01]

go ahead.
[1:01:17]
you can ask questions.
[1:01:19]
well, I just wanted to ask
[1:01:22]
because I did speak to um, mr.
[1:01:23]
frost and I thought that, uh
[1:01:27]
this application had been um
[1:01:30]
already addressed.
[1:01:31]
but it seems like you have some
[1:01:34]
experience with this individual
[1:01:35]
and that they've been very
[1:01:37]
communicative.
[1:01:39]
>> well, ma'am, with with other
[1:01:43]
matters you know, other permits
[1:01:43]
or other not specifically with
[1:01:46]
the cash class gazmin ok I
[1:01:47]
second that's why I'm
[1:01:49]
postponing a month any further
[1:01:56]
discussion on fiverr post so
[1:01:58]
you have a month to get that
[1:01:58]
done.
[1:02:00]
>> ok this thursday.
[1:02:01]
thank you.
[1:02:01]
thank you.
[1:02:03]
you're gonna have a busy class
[1:02:05]
this thursday hampton inn and
[1:02:08]
suites was garba there matthew
[1:02:12]
doyle six oh one north garba
[1:02:20]
road uh the last time anyone on
[1:02:20]
this permit attended was
[1:02:21]
actually march twenty third
[1:02:23]
of twenty three.
[1:02:24]
this gentleman here came
[1:02:27]
earlier this month and attended
[1:02:28]
but he was not listed on the
[1:02:28]
permit.
[1:02:32]
discuss that with him that he's
[1:02:33]
got to be on the permit.
[1:02:34]
he also has to come in and do a
[1:02:35]
background check.
[1:02:36]
my understanding is he came to
[1:02:38]
mr. Byrd's office and did the
[1:02:39]
application but he has not
[1:02:40]
scheduled any background
[1:02:42]
checking with our office to
[1:02:43]
complete the process.
[1:02:46]
that is the last thing that I
[1:02:47]
need to do here.
[1:02:48]
so you're going to do that?
[1:02:49]
yes, ma'am.
[1:02:49]
yep.
[1:02:51]
yeah, a move that we postpone
[1:02:53]
this one month I've been to
[1:02:54]
discussion how long does a
[1:02:58]
background check usually take?
[1:02:59]
>> uh, once he comes in and
[1:03:02]
schedules it's pretty quick.
[1:03:03]
I have the results back in a
[1:03:04]
few days once he goes to the
[1:03:06]
tyvi person that it doesn't
[1:03:10]
take long at all.
[1:03:13]
alexeyeva post how you got a
[1:03:13]
month?
[1:03:14]

[1:03:16]

[1:03:44]
attendance for this business
[1:03:46]
was uh july 20th of twenty
[1:03:53]
twenty three.
[1:03:58]
>> so I understand I think
[1:03:58]
you're new but if you can
[1:04:03]
explain why it hasn't been done
[1:04:04]
or why you haven't done then
[1:04:04]
of course I've been in this
[1:04:06]
position for just slightly over
[1:04:09]
a year but also going through
[1:04:10]
the process of selling and
[1:04:11]
introducing ownership of the
[1:04:13]
business.
[1:04:14]
so there's been a lot
[1:04:17]
of permitting and things I've
[1:04:17]
been learning about this was
[1:04:18]
originally tasked to the bar
[1:04:21]
manager.
[1:04:22]
>> she resigned when she was
[1:04:23]
supposed to do it so it kind
[1:04:25]
of fell my bailout last minute
[1:04:29]
about three weeks ago I did
[1:04:34]
communicate with miss hensley.
[1:04:36]

[1:04:37]
that's what I was told to come
[1:04:45]
