Select Board Approves Liquor Licenses and Outdoor Consumption Permit for Downtown Businesses
Summary
The Select Board approved a new liquor license for The Stick LLC (former Rustic), renewed several existing licenses and granted The Stick LLC an outside-consumption permit for an approximate 8-by-50-foot front patio that would seat about 20; neighbors spoke briefly and the board voted by voice.
The Northfield Select Board approved a series of liquor-license actions, including a new license for The Stick LLC (the former Rustic restaurant) and renewals for Champlain Farms, Depot Square Pizzeria, Dollar General and Todd's Market.
"All in favor of approving the rustic liquor license, say yes," Speaker 3 said before the board recorded ayes. Neighbors and board members asked a few clarifying questions; no formal objections were recorded. The board then considered the renewal group and approved the listed renewals by voice.
The Stick LLC also applied for an outside-consumption permit for a front patio described by the applicant as roughly 8 feet by 50 feet, which the applicant said would accommodate about 20 seats and include a patio fence. The applicant described reconfigured parking and noted the patio would sit directly in front of the building. After a short discussion about placement and sightlines, the board moved and approved the permit by voice.
Speaker 4 asked whether the outdoor seating would be visible to passersby; the applicant replied the seating would be "up front" and enclosed by a patio fence. The board recorded the approvals and encouraged the applicant to proceed with required permits and any safety measures.
The meeting record shows the board handled these license items on the consent/motion agenda and approved them without roll-call tallies in the transcript.
