Summary

The London City Council voted to allow two liquor-permit matters — Haya Hayaari Hibachi Sushi Ramen and Valerie Farmhouse Bakery — to proceed without holding hearings after brief member questions about police checks.

The London City Council agreed to let two liquor-permit applications proceed without hearings during its regular meeting. President Peters put the question to members and the council voiced approval for both items.

A council member asked whether the police department had any concerns about either location, saying, “Have we checked with the police department? Do we know if there's any issues with either one of these locations?” The council moved forward after that exchange and the president called for a voice vote; members answered in the affirmative and the chair declared both items approved without a public hearing.

The two items identified on the agenda were for Haya Hayaari Hibachi Sushi Ramen (the former Kinichua site) and Valerie Farmhouse Bakery. The clerk read the agenda items and noted the liquor matters were on the agenda for consideration of whether to schedule hearings. Council members treated both as transfers and, after brief discussion, allowed the permits to proceed. No formal opposition or police objections were recorded in the transcript.

The council handled the items as routine business and moved on to other agenda matters after the approvals.
