The St. Mary's County Alcohol Beverage Board on Oct. 14, 2010 approved a 90‑day extension to the conditional approval for the extended premises at Island Bar and Grill and recorded that the applicant, Bree Whitlock, withdrew her request for a catering permit. The board also approved an administrative officer change for Saint James Pub, deleting Carmel McCadden and adding John W. Langley.
At the start of the meeting the board unanimously approved the minutes of the Sept. 9, 2010 meeting after a motion and second on the record. During the Island Bar and Grill agenda item, the board split the applicant’s requests into two actions: the extension of conditional approval for the extended premise and a separate request for a catering permit. Whitlock said she had her permit in hand but preferred to delay catering plans until next month. "I wasn't prepared... I haven't started that process yet," Whitlock said and withdrew the catering permit request for the record.
A board member moved to grant a 90‑day extension of the conditional approval; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The board recorded the extension as an additional 90 days; the applicant was told she could return if more time was needed.
The board then voted to approve the officer change for Saint James Pub, deleting Carmel McCadden and adding John W. Langley. A motion to approve that administrative change was made and seconded; the motion carried by voice vote.
Other routine items included a reminder from board administrator Miss Hildebrand that November’s meeting will fall on Wednesday, Nov. 10, 2010, because the usual Thursday meeting date is a holiday. The meeting adjourned by motion later in the session.
