The Town of Glocester, Rhode Island, held a public hearing on August 22, 2025, to discuss the transfer of a Class A liquor license from Christie's Liquors Inc. to Patrick Village Wine and Spirits. This hearing was a continuation from a previous session on August 7, 2025, and was part of the town's ongoing regulatory process concerning liquor licenses.
The transfer involves Kevin J. Kitson, president of Christie's Liquors Inc., and Ankit Patel, representing Patrick Village Wine and Spirits, located at 1116 Putnam Pike, Chepatia, Rhode Island. The public hearing was officially advertised in the Providence Journal's legal section in July 2025.
During the meeting, the town clerk received a request from Kevin McKesson to table the public hearing to a later date, specifically to September 8, 2025. Following this, Kitson made a motion to continue the public hearing regarding the liquor license transfer, which was seconded and unanimously approved by the council members present.
This transfer is significant as it represents one of only two Class A liquor licenses in the town, highlighting the importance of regulatory oversight in local business operations. The council's decision to continue the hearing allows for further discussion and consideration of the application before a final decision is made.
The next steps will involve reconvening on September 8, 2025, to further evaluate the transfer request.
