NEWRA Removes Monica’s From Agenda

The North End / Waterfront Residents’ Association has removed the application for Monica’s Restaurant extended hours from its February 10th meeting agenda. The Boston Licensing Board ruled last week on the issue without NEWRA’s input, allowing for an extension to 12:30 p.m. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings. Instead, NEWRA has added the agenda item for a “Discussion of alcohol licensing and noise issues.” The revised agenda is shown below.
