Council approves multiple liquor license renewals; several votes split or abstained
Summary
At its June 9 meeting the council renewed multiple plenary retail consumption and distribution licenses. Minutes record several nays and abstentions on specific renewals (R.26.155–R.26.159), reflecting division on a subset of licenses rather than a single unified objection.
The Borough Council considered and approved a package of license renewals at the June 9 meeting. The minutes list a series of resolutions renewing plenary retail consumption and distribution licenses for businesses including Ma Bhadra, LLC (Hany’s Liquors), RJ Preet Liquors (Burt’s Liquors), Alibi Inn, The Office Bar & Grill, Bourbon and Brews, Kelus Riverside Bar & Grill, Madira House (Pocket License 1048 Club), Rocking Stone (pocket license), and others. Most renewals passed with recorded ayes; however, several renewals recorded nays and abstentions by named council members as documented in the minutes.
For example, R.26.155 (Kelus Riverside Bar & Grill) and R.26.156 (Madira House/Pocket License) recorded recorded nays by CM Singleton and CW Turner; other resolutions show abstentions by Council President Thomas or CM Haynes on particular renewals. The minutes report each vote tally and the council adopted the resolutions as recorded.
