The Public Safety & Neighborhood Services Committee voted to recommend that the full Board approve transfer of a Type 20 off‑sale beer and wine license to Barbara Jean Grama, doing business as Grata Wines, at 5299 Third Street.

Officer Salmonson of the SFPD’s ABC liaison unit told the committee that the proposed location is in a low‑crime area and a low‑saturation census tract and that ALU had received "0 letters of protest, 0 letters of support." The police unit recommended approval "with no additional conditions." Chair Gordon Marr moved to direct the clerk to prepare a resolution finding that the license "will serve the public convenience and necessity" and to forward it to the full Board with a positive recommendation. The committee’s roll call showed Vice Chair Stephanie, Member Matt Haney and Chair Marr voting "aye."

The decision is a committee recommendation that goes to the full Board of Supervisors for final action, per committee rules. The clerk noted that any item acted upon would appear on the Board agenda for March 9, 2021.

The committee held no public callers on the item; the SFPD presentation and the unanimous committee recommendation were the principal actions recorded at the hearing.
