Loading...
Summary
The Board approved several license applications and transfers March 25, including auto repair licenses for Vigo Auto Service and Woodlawn Auto Service (latter approved with conditions: no outdoor repairs, no overnight street parking, and organized lot storage), transfers of liquor licenses, and victualing and entertainment permits for new or relocated businesses.
The Board of License Commissioners held multiple advertised hearings and approved a slate of licenses and transfers.
Auto repair licenses: Vigo Auto Service (707 Broadway) was approved as a class B secondhand-shop/auto-repair license; applicant Arjelis Cruz Perdomo (speaker 21) confirmed business operations and staff plans. Woodlawn Auto Service (77 Mineral Spring Avenue) received approval subject to three stipulations: no outdoor repairs to vehicles, no overnight parking of vehicles on city streets, and organized on‑lot storage that does not block lot entrances.
Liquor and victualing transfers: A class A transfer and relocation for 401 Liquors (to 465 Lonsdale Avenue) was approved following a public hearing and applicant presentation; the applicant said he plans interior updates and security systems. A class B victualing license with outdoor seating was approved for Accruz Events and Art Gallery LLC at 249 Main Street, and related entertainment and full-privilege license petitions for the same location were granted.
Bar transfers and entertainment: The board approved the transfer of a class B license with two amusements to BMT 7 LLC (682 Roosevelt Ave), a relocation of a previously licensed establishment; applicant Bruno Texeira (speaker 22) described plans to maintain sports‑bar programming and manage capacity and security.
Board members generally recorded unanimous or near‑unanimous approval for the routine license transfers and imposed the Woodlawn Auto Service operational stipulations in response to neighborhood and enforcement concerns about outdoor repairs and blocked exits.
The board closed the public hearings, recorded approvals by roll call or unanimous voice votes where noted, and instructed applicants to meet stated license conditions.
