9.28.2026 Licensing Board

The Fall River Licensing Board met on September 28, 2026, with Chairman Gregory Brilhante and board members Michael Perreira and Melanie C. Cordeiro present. The board heard several requests for one-day alcoholic beverage permits, approving applications for Holy Name School's annual Oktoberfest on October 17, St. Michael School's back-to-school dinner on October 3, four brunch event dates for Taste of Paradise while their state license remains under review, and the City of Fall River's Children's Christmas Parade fundraiser concert at Bristol Community College on October 2. The board also ratified date changes for a previously approved permit for Taste of Paradise.

In business licensing, the board unanimously approved common victualler licenses for Power Up Nutrition at 903 Second Street and Sabor Latino Restaurant at 1858 Pleasant Street. An alteration of premises petition by Fournier's Auto Sales and Service, Inc. to expand vehicle capacity across properties at 605 Globe Street and 26 Kilburn Street was granted conditionally, pending a formal zoning determination letter from Director of Inspectional Services Glenn Hathaway.

Under old and new business, an application for The Tatty Restaurant Inc. at 236 Pleasant Street was tabled due to improper certified mail notification to abutters. The board concluded the meeting by establishing the 2027 license renewal schedule across various commercial and liquor license classes, adopting their 2027 meeting calendar, and approving meeting minutes from July 15, 2026, and August 19, 2026.
