Special call meeting approves distance-waiver permitting alcohol sales at Fajita Mex/Max Grill

Participants at a special call meeting in Salem, Georgia, voted to approve a district distance waiver permitting the sale of alcohol at the restaurant recorded in the transcript as Fajita Mex Grill (the record also contains the variant "Fajita Max Grill") at 1916 Railroad Street, the meeting record shows. S3 (Clerk) introduced the item, saying, "the public hearing is for the purposes of, renewing the, permit for the, alcohol sale assistance waiver for Fajita Max Grill located at 1916 Railroad Street, Salem, Georgia." The public hearing was then closed by motion and the permit application was approved by a show-of-hands vote.

The decision came after a brief procedural exchange. S1 called the meeting to order and identified the voting item as an application for a district distance waiver permit to allow alcohol sales at the specified address. S2 moved to close the public hearing and later moved to approve the application; both motions received a verbal second and were decided by a show of hands. The meeting record indicates the motions passed; specific individual vote tallies beyond the collective 'all in favor' call were not provided in the transcript.

The transcript records the restaurant name inconsistently (both "Fajita Max Grill" and "Fajita Mex Grill" appear). The record lists the address as 1916 Railroad Street, Salem, Georgia. The transcript does not specify the underlying distance standard being waived, any conditional requirements attached to the waiver, or details about opposition or public comment on the application.

After the vote the meeting proceeded to an adjournment motion, which passed by show of hands. The meeting then ended; no further action or calendar dates for follow-up were recorded in the provided transcript.
