All entities applying for a liquor license (original, renewal, alteration, class change, etc.) must submit a New York State Liquor Authority (SLA) 30-Day Advance Notice Form to Bronx Community Board #6’s office via certified mail, or in person.
To verify the proposed location falls within the boundaries of Bronx Community Board #6, please visit NYCityMap.
After the New York State Liquor Authority Advance Notice Form has been received, the Board’s Public Safety Committee has 30 days to review it to determine if further action is needed.
The applicant will be invited to the next upcoming Public Safety committee meeting, where the committee will review 311 complaints at the establishment and may contact NYPD for further background on enforcement actions. Failure to attend may result in a negative recommendation from the committee if there are concerns about noise or public safety.
If you need a letter of support, please be advised that you must first make a request to present at one of our committee meetings. Please send the presentation request to the Board office via email at [email protected].
Subject Line: Presentation Request
Please attach all supporting documents and presentation to the request email.
Once your request has been received, you will receive confirmation from the Community Board office.
After you have met with the appropriate committee, your request is presented to the full Board for a vote. Please note that it may take more than 30 days to accommodate requests for letters of support.
Applications for the Street Activity Permit Office (SAPO) permits are available online. Applicants should visit the SAPO website for more information.
SAPO’s E-Apply offers real-time status updates, the ability to pay the processing fee by credit card, and quicker issuance of permits. In addition, SAPO’s E-Apply system now has the capability of accepting electronic checks, so applicants have an additional option to pay the processing fee other than using credit cards.
Bronx Community Board #6 will continue to monitor and review electronic applications. The following are required for a successful Block Permit/Street Activity application:
- To allow sufficient processing time, applications must be submitted 90 days before the proposed event date.
- An official letter from the sponsoring organization that explains the event’s activity and goals should be e-mailed to the Community Board office.
- A letter of support from the Block Association and/or Religious Institution should be e-mailed to the Community Board office.
