lanista Lounge for approximately 20 people fighting outside on our arrival there were approximately 20 people outside between Spring Street and the lounge uh appeared to be dispersing from the area um I had observed a male with a guitar case and walked up to him and asked him if he was a DJ he stated yes I asked him where he was coming from he said Lista uh Lounge I pointed to the door of the lounge and said here and he said yes uh the door was locked looking in signed I could see approximately 20 people inside uh knocked on the door the owner Mr Nuno open the door uh I asked told him that we were there for a fight call he said no we're closed um those people weren't in here uh we were then uh met by another male who stated that there was a private party going on upstairs but that party was over uh we then went upstairs there was a DJ breaking down and about three people in there um when I went downstairs uh Miss Nuno said that those people that were in the bar at the time were uh family of his and not customers um there were still drinks on the bar there was still a bartender behind the bar um when asked to see his liquor license uh he became upset told us that he wanted us to leave the bar advising him that I needed to see the liquor license he stated that he didn't have it in the at the bar it was in the office and he didn't couldn't find the keys to the office so he couldn't retrieve it um I addressed the one that was behind the bar which I says can I see that one he said that's the old one um it expired January 1 of 2023 um took a picture of that there was some pictures of some people in the bar at the time and there's also body cam footage of the events leading up to this that night okay we look at now now you say this is at I saw the police report this was at 4:36 in the morning yes and the liquor license is done at 2 2 a.m. correct okay he had stated that those people tried coming in the bar that they had come from a bus from Providence and I had advised him that um he had cameras of in his own business and he could provide those cameras and show that they were not in the bar um that night what suggesting that you what you're saying is incorrect yes okay he's suggesting that they came off a bus from Providence that they attempted to come to his bar and he stated no we're closed you can't come in and I advised him well you have cameras of your establishment you can provide proof that they weren't in here if that's but those pictures right there sure they were clearly I will watch the body cam um is is someone here to give any testimony about the 28 matter or is this just another one so when we got that complaint I just investigated the rest of PRI complaints of that establishment and kind of typ okay yeah this is just a synopsis because there there seems to be numerous issues not just one detective Camp alone so when you did all these things it see and I have police reports that I've read as well seems to be another incident that occurred on November 26th there's a police report to that effect and that is after hour was drinking March 20th another fight in the RAR parking lot uh just sir just so you know the parking lot belongs to uh the club not his yeah know I'm I'm aware of the this establishment can we watch the body cam is there any volume I don't know how that work yes it starts in about 30 seconds okay so that's the gentleman with the guitar case who's pointing me to the door that he came from stated that he was the DJ these people leaving yeah right what is this place H what is this place who is that LIC H is that liced anyway I don't [Music] know a copy of his license have a copy of that license I know it's the one before can I just take you speak English is the the [Music] the yeah but the bar isn't supposed to be open yes so it means everybody in here [Music] you [Music] stays the same the key the guys it worse my door is lock KN my door my [Music] everybody [Music] have so that's the old one can I see that one number should be the same a new number right but the number should be the same your license number nothing changed right the name is the same everything's the same okay so where's the new one we got a li on one floor yeah I spoke to building they're going to speak up in a few okay so who's an employee that's my wife that's emplo employ people that were outside they want coming in some the second one is just a different offices body cam it's the same thing so guess we're unless I don't think do you think we need to watch the okay no it's the same thing very good and I know the bill inspector's here I'm looking at the license even though it's the license from the year before there's only one level one floor is licensed can't be but I only I only only one FL I know you have people up there drinking on the second floor that's not my party what do you mean it's not your party because you told me in that whole thing you said it was your brother-in-law he told you you s right on the body cam but what I was saying to you I don't care the person that was on the second floor you told him was your brother-in-law because when they come downstairs he was upstairs I think it was a private party they have over there because if you got if you look downstairs I had like when I was telling the the officer he went inside how was you know he was decide to clean the place and uh we didn't I was sell no alcohol I was my cash was closed and we because we had a day party we want to decide to clean up the place well there was a there was a receipt that showed a drink paid for at 4:17 a.m. well if I may Mr chairman um I'd like to point out a few things for the record both in the reports and what we just saw okay according to Sergeant K's report he was dispatched to 256 South Main Street and officer Melo says he was dispatched to 254 South Main Street The Establishment in question is at 227 South Main Street I would hope that the board would agree with me that none of us saw 30 people or 20 people fighting in the street that just wasn't on that tape as my client explained to this board those were people who tried to get into his place and he had locked the door so as far as him violating the rules of this board with excessive hilarity noise crowds and objectionable persons not being permitted honor about the premises he had no no control over whoever's out in the streets and that tape didn't show me anybody out in the streets except for one or two people well I can tell you m Mr Frank and I apologize I'm I'm not I'm not making any decisions based on anybody fighting in the street okay I just I just want to point out some of the disparities then somebody called right this is a call sure this is a 911 call and the Ping is here in the call notes yeah I saw it that's what I'm saying it's right4 me of 151 South Main but go ahead I apologize no I think we can all agree that there weren't 20 to 30 people downstairs in that bar as sergeant Melo um memorialized in his report approximately 20 to 30 individuals inside the business and we observed numerous parties consuming alcoholic beverages Sergeant gra says there were 10 to 20 people and I observed the bartenders still removing beer bottles off the bar so were there people drinking or were they just people cleaning up and if you noticed there's a case of spring water on on the bar which to me is indicative of providing beverages for people who were going to start cleaning up this was New Year's Eve he's going to be open again on New Year's night and as he explained to the officers that night and he's explained to me and as he'll explain to this board one of those people was his wife he was there uh his staff was there still there and there were certain other family members I think he said his daughter or his son were there now I think it's fairly common in this area that on especially on a New Year's Eve you have a work crew who comes in after the festivities the Venus de Milo was famous for its work crws that would come in after the party closed so that they could open for an antique show at 10:00 on New Year's Day he was in his facility there weren't 20 to 30 people I didn't see anybody drinking in that video and he was entitled to be in his business to get it ready for the next day if he didn't have the license dis displayed correctly I agree he should have had the brand new license displayed but I don't think there's any evidence that he didn't have a license he did have a license he isn't responsible for what goes on on out on South Main Street especially on New Year's Eve and I didn't see anybody drinking in that video um I don't think there's he's ever been before this board before on a complaint I would ask the bo I think he's very lucky well I've been on both sides of this as people well know my clients have taking some sub hits which I was going to remind the chair that it had always been this board's policy that the first time in you warned the second time in no it's not my I can tell you right now it's not my policy it's not my policy because I can read these numerous reports back in March we've had a two seven there's still 20 people in the bar and he's not here for these but there's a track record of what's going on in my humble opinion okay and and I and I while I respect you we're very we're good friends no one's going to tell me those people weren't there drinking that's not a cleaning clue that's not a cleaning crew might be new year so therefore they're there at 4:00 in the morning and they're still partying so be it that's not a cleaning crew okay now people came down from downstairs the guy says he's drunk he ain't there to clean and then he's was back down in his B saying he's his brother-in-law so I I I I personally don't buy that and and I just again my personal opinion this isn't good this isn't good it's not a good situation and and Mr sudo I I don't know you and I respect you for being here you're a business owner in Far River but you're yelling at the police officers you ain't helping things I didn't even hear you say one time to get people out you're yelling at them saying it's because of minority things and and and racial things that's not helping the situation uh chairman because uh Onan you see on the you say uh before yep the door was locked and officer was knocked at the door with some lady was from the next door that was 27 in the morning and my door was locked because 150 I took everybody out even when the officer show up my door was locked I always lock my but that doesn't that doesn't matter Mr s if your door is lock when you say by the the people uh they come like you know two and knock the door the people remember two Club is a club next door to me I mean I don't I don't control outside J this is not about outside this it says inside your no no I'm talking about the one you say the the the last incident there's pictures yeah right here last inent right here November 26 it says there 20 people inside your bar by the police no what time at 207 and here's a colored photo of the people inside your B that's somebody drinking that's the one is that photo dated Mr chairman no that the police the police brought this is it dated no it's not so we're going to then I object to it okay well object I have no isues what you objected and I'll show you this but I'm not I I in all due respect Mr Frank and Mr Soto I'm not going to be you know this to me is rather obvious what was going on and I would have respect this gentleman more to say this is a night that get out of control and it was New Year's Eve to come in here and try to contend before this board that people were cleaning up at 4:00 in the morning so it took them that long to clean up it's two and a two hours and a half after closing time but to remember uh chairman I have people the band they have to take the equipment I I get it they took them an hourtime to took the equipment this is 2 and a half hours sir but I'm telling you sometime they took listen some sometimes they have a lot of equipment you as you as the owner and manager got to make sure that that doesn't happen and people drinking in your establishment I'm just speaking for myself okay and I and I really am a little disappointed that there was almost an instigation of a a worse event with the police department out there trying to do their job here in the city of Fara with with a lot of things going on lately this is just not something I I I will as a board member I'm not going to tolerate it I'm not going to tolerate it I know what my position is nothing against you nothing against Mr Frank I I heard everything you said I don't buy that I don't believe that I believe they were there I believe this was after hour situation being New Year's Eve you had friends you had family there they did not leave okay and at 4:36 in the morning and I do believe they were still there I believe that picture I understand Mr Mr Frank's objection I believe that picture shows people drinking there they have a receipt that says 417 still making money off of it not showing your license so forth and so on the license and want to pick up the license what happened I put the license inside the the office I get it because you know you know I had the license sign everything off but what happened my wife locked the door and lock my key inside I had to go break the door I can show you the picture if I can go there so I told the officer I didn't refuse to give give him the license I told her I heard him you said your wife said it was in the office she couldn't find her keys yeah because she she she locked the key inside I understand you know because when I come back you know what I mean I try to because sometime you know uh I go home like you know when I come back 9:00 IED the to the office I understand but I put that earlier because I know I pick up my license uh she gave the license she knows she gave to me earlier the license was you know I have the license you know I do understand he sign on the I don't I don't think there's any dispute that he had he physically had been renewed his license I I no he didn't have it displayed and I conc that Mr I I I'm trying to be very honest with you I would have had more respect for this petition to say that this was a situation a party that got on longer to try to come before this board and even attempt to say that these were people cleaning up that place at 4:36 in the morning I don't buy it and I and I don't think it's a good thing and that's I'm giving you my opinion I think we have police office out here trying to work hard downtown and we're all trying to make downtown better I don't think this is the necessary way to have relations with our police department and then and then with this licensing board to say that this was a situation that people were cleaning up at 4:36 sorry I apologize sir but I don't buy it my my opinion and I'm going to I'll say it I'm looking for a suspension small suspension 3 days I was on the other side of that table with someone had three people in your upstairs of the side building upstairs three people got two weeks but I I I don't I don't own upstairs I didn't say you I said I was on the other side of the table when you want to say First Defense upstairs third floor three people two weeks suspension my client got this is far worse and I and I just think it's a disingenuous response to this show CA here and I speak for myself I don't speak for Miss cadero she can speak and she can give her own opinion but that's that's my recommend well that's what I'm going to be recommended so three days be tomorrow no no no won't be tomorrow we pick the days well I don't think we pick the days but we got to give you we got to give you your notice I have to have it all prepared by the 27th which I can do okay M I'm ready for a motion if you so want to make a motion I'll make a motion uh to suspend the liquor license for La Kista Lounge for three days I second that motion any questions on the motion anybody to be heard in favor against all those in favor I I when would you like to start it just going to give me some dates meaning the dates that you want the suspension to happen it's noted if they don't appeal they have to hand their license what days does he open I mean the days of the week Tuesday through Saturday 10:00 a.m. to 2: a.m. Sunday 10: a.m. to 1:00 a.m. anything but Monday and how many days do you need uh I would I would put at least a week and a half out so I can get everything pred well this this week I'm not trying to hurt him on Easter that's not my intent um I'm trying to just I'm trying to not hurt them with with holidays or anything like that in April 12 13th and 14th he has to hand it in by 9:00 a.m. 8 a.m. now because we open at 8 if he chooses not to appeal yeah if he appeals then it's it just needs to be stated that's so 12 131 14 correct but to be honest with you and Mr Frank has probably done it far more than me but when I appealed mine you have to ask for a stay from the alcoholic beverage commission to not turn it in no matter what if you appeal I don't think it automatically stays it but you can check Mr Frank Al when I my experience has been yes you have to get a stay whether it's from a court a Jud judge I think they can do it I think the alcoholic beverage commission can do it they probably can it's been a while since I did one I think they can do it I did it with the Republican Club I think they did it but I I'll also I mean I I will say this I have no issues that if Mr Frank appeals it that that if we have the ability to give him a stay that's fine meaning he doesn't have to hand it in if he appeals it and does it right F if he hands it in he hands it in at 8:00 the day of the suspension starts correct which that would be April the 12th correct Y and then and then he'll get it back Mr Frank on he can come here at 8:00 a. on the 15th okay and he keeps it then go from there very good okay thank you okay thank you thank you Mr chairman thank you thank you very much for coming over good job I that was scary not really I wouldn't want to be there thank you thank you thanks oh okay we know we got one more thing yeah it's just been acknowledging a letter oh is it I apologize I'm sorry thank you um next item on the agenda is acknowledgement except uh kadoba 544 William S canning Boulevard is surrendering their all Alcoholic Common victual is license except do we acknowledge and accept the letter motion to acknowledge and accept the letter I'll make a motion to uh acknowledge and accept uh kadova surrendering their all alcohol common vitor's license I'll second that motion any questions on the Motions all anybody in favor anybody oppose uh um those in favor all those in favor sorry I lost all those in favor I all those oppos hearing none motion passes motion to adjourn motion to adjourn I'll second that Mr may I speak for a moment please yeah you may before the adjournment this is prior to the adjournment we'll have to take another motion so uh based on the uh outcome of your decision previous decision tonight I went out into the lobby and I contacted the owner and I asked them why they were not present for tonight's meeting seeing the importance of it uh they were under the assumption the meeting was 5:00 tomorrow night and the owner is currently lives in Boston he's not present but I asked him if he could get a representative here uh within the next 5 minutes and they have arrived I don't know if you want to entertain the property managing managers of the property or you want to uh continue with the initial decision but I I'm just letting you know that the uh the answer I was giving that by two individuals uh cuz I asked the question they were under the assumption the meeting is tomorrow night and not tonight at 5:00 p.m. and that's I rest my case I can only speak for myself okay and I'm going to be very Frank about this we made a special meeting for this already okay and the owners n came okay the property manager was here didn't seem to know anything about anything okay clearly wasn't aware of the fact that things have been massive changes over there and no one even informed the city or worked with the city to get him done I'm not trying to hurt anybody I'm not trying to put anybody out of business but I I I personally don't think that I'm going to be in a position to change anything unless Mr M M Mr ha way Mr har are going to sit right here and say to me there's no further issues Mr chairman zero everything has been taken care of and I don't think you're going to be able to say that okay then I'm not voting for this lodging license anyhow because let's face it when did this expire December 31st we're we're going into April we had a special meeting for a late application we we've tried sir I don't know if you Mr no I'm not oh I'm sorry we're from a property management company oh the the owner is not here oh no I I don't even need to hear from you I apologize don't even need to hear from Mr hatway the answer is no as far Miss Miss CAD I'm in agreement they would told to be here and that was specifically stated to your property manager not you guys so it's not on your shoulders your property manager was here and Mr perea specifically said on the record I want the owners here next meeting not the property management company so therefore no disrespect to you ma'am and sir I I don't mean to take this out on you but as far as I'm concerned the answer is no that's denied okay all right thank you Mr chairman and comme I'll make a motion to adjourn second n motion all those in favor I those oppos
