Council approves entertainment license transfer for RedTE at 126 Newbury Street
Summary
RedTE LLC, the new owner of the former Green Tea restaurant at 126 Newbury Street, won council approval to operate non-live entertainment (televisions and a jukebox). Attorney Russell Chin represented the applicant; no public opposition was recorded.
The Peabody City Council on July 9 approved an entertainment-license transfer for RedTE LLC at 126 Newbury Street, allowing non-live entertainment such as televisions and a jukebox.
Attorney Russell Chin appeared for RedTE, which is taking ownership of the premises formerly known as Green Tea. Chin said the operation will include a total of 12 monitors (televisions) and a jukebox; he described the request as a straightforward ownership transfer rather than a major operational change.
No members of the public spoke in opposition during the hearing. Councilors asked clarifying questions about the presence of a jukebox and whether live entertainment was planned; Chin confirmed the entertainment would be non-live. A councilor moved to approve the application as presented and the council carried the motion on a roll-call vote.
The license was approved without additional special conditions beyond standard licensing requirements. The city clerk will record the license transfer and notify relevant departments.
