Overview: In a recent meeting, the Fall River Licensing Board discussed and amended a previous decision requiring the Belmont Club to have a fire watch during their outdoor event. This change came after a conversation with Deputy Chief Neil Fado, who advised that a fireman on duty was not necessary for the event, as the responsibility for crowd count and adherence to capacity limits would fall to the Belmont Club’s security team. The Board agreed to rescind the fire watch requirement on the condition that a written confirmation from the fire department stating that such a detail is not necessary under the specific conditions of the event is provided.
