Loading...
Summary
The board approved multiple routine items on voice votes: seasonal license renewals for several establishments (including Wicked Checkers and Gordon Hospitality transfer for 4 Vines), license agreements with Falmouth Commodores and Falmouth Youth Lacrosse, execution of the May 19 election warrant, and minutes for February–March meetings; Seacoast Shores renewal was recorded separately after a contested hearing.
The Select Board approved a slate of routine matters on April 13, beginning with a large consent agenda of seasonal license renewals, entertainment and common‑victualer licenses, administrative orders, and sign-code variances. The board handled the consent agenda largely by voice vote and approved the items as presented, with one recusal noted for a specific application.
Notable approvals on the night included:
- Wicked Checkers LLC (89 Water Street, Woods Hole): seasonal all alcoholic beverages and common victualer license — board closed the hearing and approved the application. - Gordon Hospitality (transfer for 4 Vines, 291 Main Street): transfer of an all alcoholic beverages restaurant license — board closed the hearing and approved the transfer. - Falmouth Commodores (Gov Fuller Field): approved a multi‑year license agreement outlining use and scheduling accommodations for select board meetings and playoffs. - Falmouth Youth Lacrosse (George Gaspar Sports Complex): approved a license agreement to clarify roles for planned improvements and non-exclusive use. - Election warrant execution for the May 19, 2026 town election (charter questions on town clerk appointment and a licensing commission): board voted to execute the warrant as presented. - Minutes: the board approved meeting minutes for 02/25/2026, 03/09/2026 and 03/23/2026.
Most votes were voice votes recorded as 'Aye' with no roll-call tally recorded in the public proceedings. The board noted that some contested matters (notably Seacoast Shores) were handled separately and recorded in the meeting’s minutes.
