Lowell License Commission Meeting Recap (February 26, 2026) Two significant items from the recent License Commission meeting require resident attention as they head toward the next hearing on March 12, 2026. First, the Commission has granted a request for a public hearing concerning the transfer of a package store license to A1 Food Mart. The decision to hold a formal hearing indicates that the board is treating this transfer with scrutiny, likely due to potential community interest or opposition regarding the new ownership or the nature of the establishment at this location.

In response to these concerns, the License Commission has directed the Police Captain to prepare a formal report regarding traffic and police department issues at that specific intersection.
