10:11

First things up is the beer applications approved by regulatory.

10:14

Um obviously there's nothing in that spot, but all the um the temporary event permits and um new applications that you see on your agenda, all of those have been approved.

10:24

We'll start with the first one.

10:25

TE 152 reflection writing.

And then on to the next is TE 149 October Fest in Cambridge Square.

10:37

That was approved the day before yesterday.

10:40

Um beer applications, beer 1435 and beer 1447.

10:45

Uh, that would be the Myan Kitchen and Chattaniga 2020.

10:48

Both of those were approved the day before yesterday.

10:51

And that's really it.

10:53

Right.

10:56

Okay.

11:00

Uh as you can see in your package, uh, we have several beer violations that'll be heard after this, after we conclude our session.

11:11

And I would encourage you to, if you have time today, to sit through those and listen to the discussion about those.

11:18

Uh does anybody have anything they'd like to bring before the board for discussion today?

11:27

All right.

11:31

Any public comment.

11:33

Anybody wishing to make a public comment to the board today.

11:40

All right, there's none noted.

11:43

So that being the case.

11:47

Uh is there a motion to adjourn?

11:57

11:58

No.

11:58

Okay.

11:59

I make a motion to adjourn.

12:03

Is there a second?

12:04

A second.

12:05

12:08

Aye.

12:08

12:09

And I think the uh hearing will start here shortly, shortly after uh we get through.

12:15

So thank you very much.

12:17

And then we will let the hearing officer take over.

12:22

Oh, that's something that I actually meant to bring up that I completely forgot about, and I wrote it at the top of my agenda.

12:28

Yes, yes, we are on the record.

12:30

I am so sorry.

12:31

That's totally my fault.

12:32

I know that we're back in session.

12:34

Finds from the last violation hearing haven't been paid yet.

12:37

I don't know when those were sent out.

12:38

They're supposed to be paid within seven days of notification, I think.

12:42

And so those haven't been paid.

12:44

Okay.

12:44

Or if the I know that there were suspensions and some there, I think there were two fifty dollar fines.

12:51

I don't know if that's worth noting, but it's there.
