Things that are now saturated

Speaking of the CB3/SLA Licensing Committee... did you notice how they are now designating certain locations (starting with the February docket)? Before, CB3 used the expression "Applications within Resolution Areas."

But this is likely much more descriptive ...


"Applications within Saturated Areas."

I like "Applications within Woooooooo! Areas." But that is likely too large an area.

Here's a list of those areas via the CB3 website:

Community Board 3 has listed the following areas where oversaturation of licensed business has negatively affected the quality of life of residents. CB 3 believes these areas are problem areas because of oversaturation, and we have a policy to not approve new licenses or expansions in these areas unless the applicants show public benefit or strong support from residents living in the immediate area (adjoining, above, across the street from and behind the business).

An exception to this policy is applications for beer wine licenses for businesses that will close by midnight, agree to never apply for full liquor licenses and meet other requirements.
