Chez Biso liquor license

Portland

Description

After postponement in September over condominium concerns, the applicant switched from a Class XI restaurant/lounge license to a Class I FSE and the council approved as amended.

Impact summary

The quieter license class should mean earlier closings and less late-night activity for the residential block.
