Uh, G, Taste of Paradise, 1335 1345 Pleasant Street. Stephanie Bau for the date 41825.

Please state your name for the record.

Stephanie Bar.

Okay. So, can you please tell me a little bit about the event?

So, it's a a fundraiser trying to raise money to St. Haiti to help the needy the kids um without one meal.

Okay. Did you have this last year, right? No, this first time. They're also applying for their common pick underneath. Excuse me. Actually, there's no they're applying for a comic pick.

So, both of them, one of them is the one day and this one is the common pick. So, she's the new potential owner.

All right. So, let's take the common Vic first, right? It doesn't matter as long as you approve both.

Well, without a common Vic in her name, she can't apply.

She can apply for a one day permit. If she's not the owner, how we we both are the owners of the doors.

No, I'm just saying if they don't have the if they don't have the actual convictions, they wouldn't be outside, I don't think.

You know what I'm saying? Because because the present owner would have to ask for them one day. Okay.

All right.

So, relative to the common victualist, you're going to operate this exactly like it is. Is you don't have a liquor license? No. Okay.

Now, what if you guys already been there for a while? I'm only asking this because there was the former owner that was here. We met you over at the site.

Yes. Yes. And and went over all of that.

Um, so you're going to be the new owners. Uh, we are the new owners. Um, we took over on November 11 and then also I'm in the process on purchasing the building as well. So, um, we took over. Since then, we just like doing a lot of cleanups. Yeah. Yeah. And, um, we we'll we'll be applying, uh, for the full liquor license, so when the time comes. Okay. Uh, but as I said, there's

a lot of gang violence in Haiti. There's a lot of stuff. So, we wanted to have the people know we're here like have that fundraising so we can just like have some people there, but in the meantime, in the background. So, we're working on other uh specific things. But we we we know what happened with the previous guy. Yeah. But that has nothing to do with us. All right. Just because

just so you're aware and I don't want to say this derogatorily because Mr. Pont we had a discussion because or he you can't just take over on somebody else's license unless you have some type of an agreement which is an operating agreement because that still was their license. So until you did this today, you weren't supposed to be operating that unless you had an operating agreement because it was still under their

license. Um you meant the restaurant.

Yeah. No matter what you you um that had to be transferred. So we we got everything. We got um the bill of sales, we got operating agreement, we got everything registered, worker comps, liability under Tiso Paradise. So the gentleman was using Tiso Paradise was never registered. So, no, I'm just saying in order to operate that restaurant, if you say you went in there in November, and I'm not giving you a

hard time about this. I'm just trying to let you know. Absolutely. You needed to have that for you to operate, you needed to have that common eviction put in your name. You couldn't operate under his license. You can't do that. Okay.

Okay. So, so as of today, when this is granted, you'd be legally being able to operate that. But before that, you can't do that. Okay. Unless you had a certain type of agreement which would allow you to do that. Okay. Okay. Okay. Because it's his ID. It's his liability. If something should happen to that restaurant between November and now, that's on him. That would have been on

you. Okay. Okay. So, now you're going to do it. So, who's going to who's who's going to be running it? Both of you?

Both of us? Yes. Okay. And it's going to be done in the same capacity. Everything the same. Okay. Yeah.

Is the alcohol out of the building right now? No, no, no. the the same time uh we had the meeting. Everything everything goes out and when you purchase alcohol for this event, it's got to be out of the building once it's done. Okay. You have my word. Okay. You got my word cuz last time I'm not trying to stuff any.

No, no, you don't. And you don't have that's okay because I was because last time we went there, even after the event was done, the alcohol was still on premises was all shown which gave the opinion you gave the appearance that you had a alcoholic license. Absolutely. You don't um is this all set with the police? It is.

Okay. All right. I just have a question as well. Go right ahead. I know the last time we were at the site that there was entertainment set up. That's since been removed. Correct. Uh we just removed it and then we applied for the one day entertainment as well. We applying for that as well. So everything was removed.

We just only have just like But the entertainment is for next month.

Correct. Yes. For next month. Okay. Yes.

I'm sorry that it didn't make it, but we talked about it came in really late.

Absolutely. Okay.

Okay. So, so wait a minute. I was just going to say, so how you going to do this then? How are they going to have 418 music? When's up? When's our next meeting? 521.

You can't have entertainment on 418.

That's virtually impossible. How do you have Well, I know that it's impossible.

I mean, let's be realistic. 418 is this weekend.

I'm not going to tell you how to do it because you probably I don't know if you sold tickets or what you did and that's none of my business. But do you have any any would you give any consideration? I mean what I what I would do because we're not either we can just like the for the application but it was too late. I know just that technically this week when you do this

on Friday night you can't have entertainment. You can serve alcohol, but you can't have any music, nothing.

Okay. So, so, but do do you want to do you want They're going to know the place. We got food. We got some nice Asian food or I was just going to give you the option if you want to have a one day liquor permit maybe sometime in May and do it all at once when you have your liqu when you have your entertainment.

That's up to you. Sold. Yeah, we got we got some tickets sold and they they'll come and then just like, you know, come do that and then just do it like like networking. So it we don't have to we don't need to have a DJ or anything like that. So do it. Listen, I just want you to do it right so the police don't show up. Absolutely. And all of a sudden you

Um, the hours for the restaurant. So, we open from 9 um to 9:30 p.m. What days?

on Monday through Thursday and on Friday we close at 10:30. On Sunday from from 9 to um to 9:00 p.m. What about Saturday?

Um Saturday almost at 10 10 p.m. as well. You want 10:30 since Yeah, 10:30.

Yeah, 10:30 is fine. You got them all done? I am getting them. And Sunday is what? Yeah, Sunday at 9:00 p.m. 9.

You can't serve alcohol before 10. Oh, you don't have it? No, we don't have it.

We'll give them We'll give them that speech when they come in. Yeah, that's all.

All right. So, just when you have these events, just watch your capacity, your seating capacity of 45 and uh and make sure there's no entertainment on the AT. No, that No, that that's that's different. We're working uh that's the reason why I said we're working on the building. I acquired the building. I spoke with Eugene, right? Um so, there's all this stuff, the sprinkler. We already have the fire alarm. So, that's

that's going to be after I don't even think that's stupid. But it's not even It's being used as storage. There's nobody storage. You can't. Yes. Yeah. I don't think you can have people down there. I I right now. Yeah. I don't think you got another exit out of there.

Yeah. We already have architects working on that and all that. So, Philip May will when the time come you guys know.

Gotcha. I'll entertain a motion relative to the common victual's license. I'll make a motion to approve the common victer's license for Taste of Paradise.

Uh I'll second that motion. Any questions on the motion hear? Hearing none. All those in favor? I. All those opposed. So, the common vixel has been approved. Now, the one day liquor permit, it's going to be for a charity event. Yes. Um, and you're going to clear that liquor out afterwards.

Absolutely. Okay. And and just no entertainment to try to get caught. It's obviously not going to look good for you guys coming back in. Okay. Anybody in favor of that?

Anybody opposed?

I'll make a motion to approve the uh one-day permit for Taste of Paradise for April 18th, 2025.

I will. And that I'm sorry and I apologize. That is going to be from 6 pm to 2 am. That's right.

Till we might be finished. Depends because the way we're doing it, there's people at work that's going to come in and out, but we're just going to open serve food.

Okay. So, so nobody's Why are they here?

Because they don't have a common pick.

Oh, they don't even have one. No. Oh, damn. They've been operating without it.

Mhm.

Um, we got a letter from the uh police department requesting that we deny this because you have outstanding alarm bills owed to the city that haven't been paid.

So, at this stage of the game, I can speak. Go ahead. So, I spoke with someone that had called from Popeis. I'm not sure if it was you that I spoke with. Okay. I know that you've been in contact to pay uh whatever was owed to the department for the alarm. I haven't received any confirmation if it has been paid. I know that it was forward to our accounts payable department. Uh so, it's

entirely up to you if you want how you want to handle it. If I can confirm.

Well, I'm going to do well, I'm going to do this. Well, it it hasn't it definitely hasn't been taken care of because this is the first I'm hearing of it. Okay. I know Romeo was in contact with someone over it and he was waiting to find out. I think it was the previous owner which obviously will take care of it, right? So I know that um our accounts payable said that they had

reached out to multiple different um entities if you will. It was the owner.

It was the a commercial building that they had tried sending notice to and they it kept the ownership is Yeah. So um they were all of the time. which this is what I'm going to do because I'm being told you're still operating without a license. Yeah. I mean, this is the first I've even heard. But I mean, you haven't had a license for whatever reason. You didn't even have one. It's been going on

for a while. He just told you they changed hands two years ago. I didn't know that either. Uh yeah, at least two years ago, possibly three years ago. So, now you've applied. So, I'll give you that much. I I am I'm I'm going to do this because you got you got a pretty substantial bill here to the city.

um w with the with the with the okay of the police department. I'm going to I'm going to ask Miss Cado to to make a motion to grant this.

However, if this is not paid because this is holiday weekend, if this is not paid by next Friday, what's the date next Friday? The 25th.

You're going to get shut down because you don't have as soon as I find out how much it'll be paid. I think I I have a bill. Just the right bill.

This should be I think two or three pages. Yeah. Yeah.

Can I give him this? Um you can tell them the amount if you don't mind. Well, it's $900, but I mean I want him to be able to come and pay it. It's $900. I think it's more than that, isn't it?

Well, that's all that's here.

There's three pages. I think there's an accumul. Oh, I thought I thought that went to 900. That's Oh, no. There's more. Yeah, I'm sorry. There's You can give that to him. 900's highlighted. So I thought that that was the accumul and then there's a second page.

So it has to be all three of those combined to minus that top page if you don't mind. I can give you this this is the I just could this is what it is.

Call the police department. Okay. Find out the entire amount owed. Okay. And tell your tell your your superiors that we're going to so we don't shut you down. I I'll end up paying it and I'll deal with them. Okay. Get this done right away. and and um just make sure it's paid by next Friday. If it isn't, tell tell Carrie and you're going to get shut down next Friday. It'll be paid, not this one.

Okay. Is that fair enough? Yes. I appreciate giving you the opportunity to stay open and get this paid. Yep. Thank you. Also, if I may, if you're unable to get in touch with accounts payable, it's Kim that actually handles it. I know that she's often in and out of the office.
