Chelsea licensing commission continues public hearing on progressive disciplinary plan, to consider forwarding to city council
Summary
Commissioners opened a public hearing on a progressive disciplinary plan for liquor-license enforcement, received no public comment, and voted to continue the hearing to April and then move the plan to city council and the city manager for possible codification.
The Chelsea Licensing Commission on March 19 opened a public hearing on a proposed progressive disciplinary plan — redlined by the city solicitor — intended to clarify procedures for handling liquor‑license violations.
Chair Mindy Macalpine said the proposal had been reviewed in draft form and that the commission wanted to give the public an opportunity to comment. No members of the public stepped up to speak at the hearing.
Commissioners voted to continue the public hearing to the April meeting and to, following that hearing, consider a motion to present the plan to city council and the city manager with the intent that it be incorporated into the municipal code and licensing regulations. Police staff indicated they supported moving forward with the public-review process.
The commission asked staff to publish hearing materials and notify interested parties prior to the April meeting.
