Fall River Government TV Dec 1, 2023 YouTube Report Issue

The Fall River Licensing Board convened on Wednesday, November 29th, 2023, at 5:00 p.m., with only two members present: Commissioner Melanie Cadiro, presiding in place of Chairman McCoy, and Commissioner Pereira. Due to the limited attendance, all decisions required a unanimous vote. The meeting began with public input, for which no one had signed up. The board addressed several individual license applications. A request for a one-day permit for a holiday gathering at Bristol Community College by Baxter Smith was approved, as was an all-alcohol license for a dinner ball for the Bristol Black Collective, presented by Dr. Gloria Sadler. New Class Two licenses for secondhand car sales were approved for Raise Auto Sales, represented by Attorney John Mitchell on behalf of Paul J. Amarello, and for Cardozo Garage Inc., represented by Attorney Mark Lafluer for Jose Cardozo. Troy City Brewing, represented by Michael Ferrera, received approval for a farmer distillery license and winery pouring permit. Imperial Grill and Pizza, represented by Rosemary Pyers, also had its common victualer's license approved. An initial request for a new all-alcohol common victualer license for Chew and Brew Inc. by Nicholas Oog was initially tabled due to the applicant's absence but was later approved pending DO clearance after Angela Chelly presented on its behalf. A significant portion of the meeting was dedicated to approving numerous 2024 license renewals across various categories, including Class 1, 2, and 3 licenses, Veterans Clubs, Farmer Brewers, Lodging Houses, Club All Alcohol, Common Victualer All Alcohol, Common Victualer Beer and Wine, Common Victualer (general), Package Store Beer and Wine, Package Store All Alcohol, and Fortune Teller licenses. All renewal motions passed unanimously. Additionally, the board ratified a one-day all-alcohol permit for the Thanks Miss Night Market and Holiday event and a live entertainment permit for William Flanigan. The board also voted to send Troy City Brewing's Distillery Pouring Permit fee to the City Council for approval and approved the 2024 meeting dates.
