Liquor License Application
I am contacting you to introduce ourselves to the
neighborhood association. We just leased a space on
Alberta and 18th, right next to Random Order
Coffeeshop! We are primarily a sake bar, focusing on
sake education with samples, tastings, and a large
selection for both take-away and hanging in. In
addition, we are asking the OLCC for a full liquor
license so that we can serve a variety of drinks; we
will also serve Japanese tapas, perhaps a little punk
rock karaoke now and then and Japanese film night once
a week.
We wanted to contact you early in the process to build
a positive rapport and troubleshoot any concerns or
questions the neighborhood has for us.
About us: We are two people, Allison Lowe and Blaine
Cline-friends since high school. We both live in the
Alberta neighborhood. I am currently looking to buy a
house in Concordia or Albina neighborhoods (both in
Grant high school district-I have 14 year old twin
daughters). Blaine's background is in film/production.
I was a high school Humanities and art teacher at an
art charter school in Phoenix, Arizona and involved in
creating community events and teaching art in Ashland,
Oregon last year.
We'd love to stop by your next meeting and meet in
person. Is it still next Tuesday?
Thanks,
Allison Lowe

Allison,
Welcome to the neighborhood! I love some good sake. I hope and anticipate that your new business will be a good addition to our community.
I do, however, hope that you understand that this is a neighborhood first and a commercial district second. Some of us in the neighborhood are very concerned about the noise eminating from some of the bars - in particular the Nest. Punk karaoke, for example, sounds like great fun, but only if you can ensure that none of our neighbors will have to hear it if they don't want to. I shouldn't have to point this out, but at least one business owner has been less than a positive influence in our neighborhood.
Having said all that, again, welcome. I look forward to sampling your wares.
