Storefront Window Coverage Enforcement
At a glance
The License Commission warned four licensees (Anne's Palace, Westgate Entertainment at 65 Westgate Drive, Chamber Way Inc. at 252-260 Main Street, and Fregados Island Restaurant at 250 Main Street) about covered front-facing windows, handing out copies of the state law and city ordinance. This was framed as a warning, not a sanction. Westgate said it would correct the problem before the next meeting. The Fregados Island owner objected strongly, citing a recent $35,000 window installation, and was told that windows must stay uncovered to a height of 5 feet above the sidewalk (commissioners read the rule as applying from the sidewalk up) and given until the November meeting to comply, with warnings that licenses might not be renewed for 2027 and that further enforcement could follow.
