In reply to questions, Mr. Canina stated The Shaw’s Center is currently without a license and
once they file their license application, one‐day licenses are not permitted. He had hoped
the application would be filed by now but there are some issues that are slowing the process
down.

With no other business to come before the Commission, a motion was made by
Commissioner Holbrook to adjourn the meeting which motion was seconded by
Commissioner McDuffy. All members voting in the affirmative, the meeting was adjourned.
