Board to advise State Liquor Authority that Roland Fields site is not currently permitted as a restaurant

Mar 26, 2026

Red Hook officials agreed to notify the State Liquor Authority that Roland Fields LLC’s application concerns premises currently permitted for indoor recreation, not as a restaurant; the board will contact the applicant and CC the town response to the SLA, and did not register an objection to the license application itself.

The full story

The board discussed a liquor-license application from Roland Fields LLC for the former bowling‑alley site. Staff and board members noted the property currently holds a permit for indoor recreation (not a restaurant) and that a restaurant in the R‑3 zone would require a special-use permit. Chair said the town should inform the State Liquor Authority of the local zoning status and permit category and also reach out to the applicant/owner for clarification before the town files its response.
