The Fall River Licensing Board convened on Thursday, August 25th, at 5:30 PM. Chairman Tim McCoy presided, joined by Mrs. Esposito, Detective Campalone, and Clerk Ash, with Miss Cadero absent. The board addressed several licensing applications and administrative matters, with all motions passing unanimously. Key decisions included the approval of two one-day beer permits for Troy City Brewing Company for events on September 4th and September 24th. Applications for a Class 2 Ride Right Auto Sales license by Bertram Leslie and a Fortune Teller's License for Starlight Astrology (Tracy Milanovich) were both denied due to negative police reports, with applicants advised to resolve issues with Detective Campalone and reapply. A Pledge of License and a Common Victory License for Mr. Chen were tabled until the September meeting. An entertainment request for live music on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings from LePage's Seafood was approved. The board also reviewed and accepted an action plan submitted by Brian Andre for Mickey Doyle's, allowing the establishment to reopen on September 1st, contingent on the installation of upgraded security cameras by October 1st. The minutes from the June 15th and July 27th, 2022 meetings were approved and signed. Finally, an open meeting complaint dated July 27, 2022, was referred to the city's law department.
