04:20The primary focus of the meeting was the approval of a one-day license for Moonhill Brewing Company to host a customer appreciation event at Mackie Building Centers on June 12, 2025. The event is anticipated to draw approximately 450 attendees and will feature two outdoor bars along with food trucks. The event organizers confirmed safety measures, such as closing all gates to the yard and ensuring police detail at the road, to manage the flow of guests and maintain security. The Commission unanimously approved the application, noting that previous events had been managed smoothly.

07:16In other business, the Commission reviewed the status of the Gardner Elks’ change of manager application, initially submitted in February but requiring resubmission due to missing or incorrect documents. The Lithuanian Auding Association’s request for a change of manager is still under review by the Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission (ABCC), with updates expected by the next meeting on June 10. Additionally, the Commission discussed the South Gardner Hotel’s pending change of ownership, noting that the new owner is the current owner’s son who is in the process of obtaining necessary state documentation. The transfer of permits and licenses will be addressed in upcoming meetings.
