The incident at Mickey Doyles was the focus of intense scrutiny. The board members were clearly frustrated with the bar’s non-compliance with previously issued directives. A discussion ensued regarding the establishment’s adherence to its action plan. Ultimately, the board voted to suspend the bar’s liquor license until the end of the year, citing the need for the establishment to fully comply with all items outlined in the action plan as a condition for reopening.

In addition to the suspension, the board mandated a change in Mickey Doyles’ operating hours, requiring the bar to close at 10 p.m. This restriction is to remain in effect until June 30, 2025. Furthermore, the board requested an investigation into the bar’s liquor distributor, specifically the last purchase of liquor, to ensure proper protocols were followed.

Another item on the agenda was the discussion about a parking configuration for a business on Oak Grove Avenue. The business owner was seeking a class two license for auto sales, with the intention of conducting most sales online. However, the board and the business owner engaged in a complex dialogue about the number of vehicles that could be accommodated on the property. The business owner highlighted the fluctuating nature of his repair business, which influenced the number of cars on-site at any given time. Ultimately, the board set a cap of 20 vehicles for the lot, inclusive of those for sale, repair, and employee use.

In a related matter, the board approved one-day liquor permits for St. Anthony’s Band Club for their annual Feast, which is set to take place on July 12th, 13th, and 14th. This approval was granted without debate.

The board also addressed the transfer of a license for Highland Mini Mart and Liquors. Described as a mere accounting change, the transfer did not involve any alterations in ownership or operation, leading to its swift approval by the board.

A discussion about an entertainment license for Associate Do Cultural Asana was tabled when the representative failed to attend the meeting. The lack of representation and clarity about the type of entertainment offered by the cultural bar and club on Co Street prompted the board to postpone this agenda item.

Additionally, the meeting featured a presentation by Sergeant David G from the police department. Sergeant David G delivered a report on a shooting incident near America Street. He detailed the events leading up to the shooting and the subsequent discovery of a gunshot wound victim at the hospital. In response to his request, the board agreed to place all relevant police reports on record and permitted the sergeant to play videos related to the incident.
