Overview: The Boston Licensing Board convened on September 26, 2024, to address several incidents and license applications, with the most discussion focusing on Concord Entertainment Inc. , doing business as Bills Bar. The board reviewed an incident involving an assault and battery between an employee and a patron that occurred on January 20, 2024. Despite reviewing video evidence and testimony, the board could not determine the origin of the altercation or who instigated it, citing insufficient evidence to establish a violation. However, a blind spot in the bar’s camera coverage was noted as a contributing factor to the incident going undocumented. The board agreed to issue a warning to the establishment and emphasized the importance of de-escalation practices.
