Select Board approves Pizza Factory’s application for a 15‑package‑store (beer & wine) license for Plum Island location
Summary
The Newbury Select Board voted June 23 to approve Pizza Factory, Inc.’s application for a Section 15 package store license for beer and wine at 29 Plum Island Boulevard after hearing operating‑hours and storage details from the applicant’s representative.
The Newbury Select Board approved a local licensing application for Pizza Factory, Inc. on June 23, allowing a Section 15 package store (beer and wine, retail only) at 29 Plum Island Boulevard.
A representative for the applicant described the proposed retail footprint (about 1,890 square feet), delivery access points and proposed operating hours; she said alcohol sales would begin at 8:00 a.m. on weekdays (10:00 a.m. on Sundays consistent with state limits) and that on holidays the state restrictions would govern. Board members asked how alcohol would be secured when not available for sale; the representative said stock would be kept in coolers and a locked closet and could be unplugged or blocked off if required.
The board took no public objections during the hearing, confirmed that the local licensing steps and the later ABCC (Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission) review are consistent with normal process, and approved the license application by roll‑call vote (Jeff Walker: yes; Alicia Greco: yes; Bill DeMeo: yes; Leslie Matthews: yes).
