What this means
The Local Liquor Commission backed two alcohol-related license actions. It recommended renewing Royale Liquors LLC d/b/a Pete’s Fresh Market after the business described steps to prevent another underage-sales violation, including more ID checks and planned point-of-sale upgrades that would require ID scanning before a sale can be completed. The commission also recommended approval of a Class M liquor license for Stonehouse Market, LLC d/b/a Stonehouse on Hale so it can sell wine by the bottle at its new store.
