Town Council approves entertainment licenses for Hungry Haven and General Stanton Inn

The Charlestown Town Council convened for its regular meeting on January 27, 2025, at 7:00 PM, addressing several key agenda items. The meeting began with an announcement regarding Bart Bromock, CEO of Freedom Energy, who was unable to attend due to illness. His presentation has been rescheduled for the first meeting in February.

Following this, the council opened the floor for public comments on items not listed on the agenda, but no residents chose to speak.

The council then moved on to discuss licenses and permits. The first item was a general entertainment license application for Hungry Haven, which seeks to continue its indoor and outdoor entertainment hours from Wednesday to Monday, 6:30 AM to 2:00 PM, consistent with the previous year. The council unanimously voted 4-0 to order the advertisement for a public hearing on this application, scheduled for February 24, 2025, at 7:00 PM.

Next, the council addressed a special outdoor entertainment license application for the General Stanton Inn. The town clerk confirmed that additional communication had been received with specific dates for the events, which would be included in the advertisement. The council again voted unanimously, 4-0, to order the advertisement for this application, also set for a public hearing on February 24, 2025.

In summary, the meeting progressed smoothly with unanimous decisions on both entertainment license applications, setting the stage for further discussions in February.
