A REQUEST FROM KIM FOREST FIVE INC.
FOR AN ON AND OFF PREMISES BEER PERMIT AT SWIGS AND BILLIARDS, ET CETERA, AND KINDLY GREEN AT 7061 MOORE'S LANE, SUITE 100, A NEW BUSINESS.
HI, UM, I'M ANTHONY KIM FROM, UM, KINDLY GREEN.
UM, SO WE'RE ASKING FOR, UM, BEER PERMIT.
OUR STORE IS, UM, YOU HAVE TO ALREADY BE 21 TO ENTER THE, THE STORE.
SO IT IS ALREADY, UH, OVER, UH, 21 SPACE.
AND THE FRONT PART IS THE RETAIL SPACE.
AND THE BACK OF THE SPACE, WE WANT TO MAKE IT INTO A SOCIAL SPACE FOR ARTS.
AND, UM, WE DON'T, UM, WE'RE KINDA, UM, LENDING...
WE, UH, WE DON'T WANT TO DO WINE AND LIQUOR, BUT BY JUST DOING BEER, WE'RE EXTENDING OUR CUSTOMERS, UM, MORE OPTION, BUT, UH, YOU KNOW, NOTHING TO BE TOO STRONG, BUT MORE SOCIAL GATHERING.
SO WE'RE JUST LOOKING FOR THE BEER PERMIT, UH, RATHER THAN, UH, UM, THE WHOLE LIQUOR LICENSE.
SO, SO IS THE BEER SERVED? I GUESS YOU HAVE A STAFF BACK THERE OR A BAR THAT'S, UH, SERVING THE BEER? OR WHAT, WHAT IS THE PROCESS - UH...
TO HANDLE THE BEER TO BE SURE THEY DON'T SERVE ANYBODY UNDERAGE? RIGHT.
SO NO ONE CAN, UH, ENTER INTO THE PREMISE.
UH, EVERYONE IS CARDED AT THE DOOR.
AND ONCE THEY ARE, UH, IN, WE WILL HAVE, UM, UH, BARTENDERS, UM, THAT WILL BE SERVING, UM, YOU KNOW, FOR THE, FOR JUST BEER ALONE.
AND SINCE WE DO HAVE A RETAIL SPACE, UM, IT WILL BE NATURAL FOR PEOPLE TO PURCHASE AND, AND LEAVE HOME.
UM, THAT ARE NOT GOING TO BE THERE.
MAY I ASK A QUESTION? ABSOLUTELY.
UH, THE ART SPACE, IS THAT LIMITED TO 21 AND OVER ALSO? YES, MA'AM.
NOW, UM, I, I'VE NEVER WALKED INTO A BUSINESS WHERE YOU WERE CARDED AT THE FRONT DOOR.
HOW DOES THAT WORK? SO, UM, ENTERS THE DOOR MUST BE 21.
SO THERE, THEY HAVE TO BE 21 TO ENTER BECAUSE WE DO HAVE HEMP LICENSE.
BUT WHO, IS THERE A DOORMAN THERE AT THAT SPOT? OH, YEAH.
THERE WILL ALWAYS BE SOMEONE, UH - ALL RIGHT.
THAT'S WHAT I WAS WONDERING, HOW, HOW YOU WOULD CHECK.
IT SEEMED LIKE, YOU KNOW, UH, THAT, UH, THAT, THAT MIGHT NOT BE A POSITION THAT SOMEONE'S GONNA BE JUST STANDING AT ALL DAY AND I WONDER, YOU KNOW, COULD SOMEONE INADVERTENTLY COME IN? UH, BUT I, I, I GUESS YOU WATCH IT PRETTY CLOSELY.
THE CASH REGISTER AND THE WAITING SPOT WILL BE RIGHT BY THE DOOR.
SO REALLY ENVISION SOMETHING MORE LIKE, UH, UH, A BAR OR AN ENTERTAINMENT ESTABLISHMENT DOWNTOWN THAN A, THAN A, A RETAIL STORE.
SO IT'S, UM, IT'S DEFINITELY A NEW CONCEPT IN A SENSE.
UM, SO IT'S KIND OF FRIENDLY GATHERING BECAUSE IT'S MORE LIKE A, OUR SOCIAL, UH, SPACE.
AND, UM, MOST OF THEM ARE ALL, UH, OVER 35 DEMOGRAPHICS.
SO, UM, JUST, UM, YOU KNOW, HAVING A BEER WHILE PAINTING.
AND IT'S JUST, UM, ONE OPTION TOO.
BUT NO OPEN CONTAINERS LEAVE THE PREMISE.
[00:05:01]
OKAY.SO THE OP - IT WILL ONLY BE - WHAT ARE YOUR HOURS? UM, RIGHT NOW IT'S 10:00 TO 7:00 MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.
HOW ABOUT, ARE YOU GONNA BE OPEN ON WEEKENDS? UH, WE ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED ON SATURDAYS, BUT WE ARE OPEN ON SUNDAYS.
BUT FOR MAYBE SPECIAL EVENTS, UH, THE, THE TIME CAN BE, UH, CHANGED.
BUT, UH, BUT RIGHT NOW IT IS 10:07.
IN TERMS OF THE, THE PERSON, UH, I GUESS IT'S EITHER THE CASHIER OR SOMEBODY BY THE DOOR THAT'S MAKING SURE FOLKS ARE 21 OR OLDER TO COME IN.
HOW ARE THEY TRAINED AND WHAT, DO YOU HAVE A SYSTEM IN PLACE FOR KNOWING EXACTLY WHAT THE, UM, THE DATE REQUIRED IS TO COME IN OR TELL ME ABOUT THE PROCESS A LITTLE BIT.
SO WE ALREADY, UH, HAVE A HEMP LICENSE.
SO IN ORDER FOR YOU TO DO HEMP, THE WHOLE PLACE IS ALREADY 21.
SO ANYONE ALREADY, UM, ENTERING THE PREMISE, THEY ARE ALL ID'D AT THE DOOR.
AND, UM, AND OUR, UH, STAFF IS DEFINITELY, UM, THE FIRST THING THAT WE DO IS TO CHECK ID FOR ANYONE THAT ENTERS THE PREMISE.
AND WE ALL, UM, WE ALL SAY W- WHENEVER THEY COME IN, IT'S LIKE, YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE TO BE 21 TO BE HERE.
AND AT THE TIME, THE ID WILL ALL BE CHECKED.
UM, YOU MENTIONED THAT YOU WOULD HAVE BASICALLY SOMEONE AS A BARTENDER THAT WOULD BE DISTRIBUTING THE BEER.
ESPECIALLY IF THEY WERE DRINKING IT ON PREMISES, BECAUSE IF THEY'RE TAKING IT OFF PREMISES, THEY NEED TO CHECK THE ID THERE.
UH, ARE YOU, BECAUSE YOUR CASHIER WOULD BE THE ONE TO HANDLE OFF PREMISES.
SO HAVE THEY HAD ABC TRAINING? WE HAVE.
'CAUSE I WAS GONNA SAY, EVEN THOUGH IT'S 21 AND UP - RIGHT.
THERE'S MUCH MORE TO THE ABC TRAINING THAN JUST AGE ID.
SO THEY DO HAVE ABC TRAINING? ABSOLUTELY.
IS THERE A CONSPICUOUS 21 AND UP ONLY SIGN POSTED AT THE FRONT OF THE ESTABLISHMENT? MM-HMM.
SO THEY SEE THE SIGN BEFORE THEY EVEN GET TO THE PERSON WHO CHECKS.
IT'LL SAY 21 AND OVER TO ENTER.
NOW, THAT'S BECAUSE YOU SELL HEMP.
NOW, DO YOU SELL OTHER PRODUCTS TOO? I MEAN, LIKE SNACKS, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? UH, UM - OR IS IT JUST HEMP AND BEER?
UM, SO WE DO HAVE, UM, PACKAGED FOOD, UH, FOR EDIBLES AND OTHER IS MORE, UH, FOOD AS MEDICINE PRODUCTS.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? AND DO WE HAVE A MOTION? I MOVE TO APPROVE THE BEER PERMIT.
MOVE TO APPROVE FOR MR. DONAHUE.
AND IN ANTICIPATION OF THIS RESULT, WE HAVE YOUR BE- BEER PERMIT RIGHT HERE.
ONE QUESTION I HAVE THAT'S NOT REC - REGARDING BEER.
DO YOU, WILL YOU HAVE CLASSES, THE PAINT CLA - LIKE, OR IS IT JUST BRING YOUR OWN AND INDIVIDUALLY PAINT? OR WILL THERE BE CLASSES THAT YOU OFFER? YES AND YES.
WE ARE KIND OF FREE IN A SENSE, BUT, UM, SOME NEEDS GUIDELINES BECAUSE THERE WILL BE BEGINNERS.
SO WE WILL HAVE, UH, SOME MONTHS THAT WILL HAVE.
OKAY, GREAT.WHAT'S YOUR ANTICIPATED OPENING? UM, 22ND.
DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER, UH, BUSINESS IN FRONT OF THE BEER BOARD TONIGHT? ALL RIGHT.
DO WE HAVE A MOTION TO ADJOURN? I MOVE TO ADJOURN.
