Liquor Licenses Around Boston and 'Odysseo' Extends its Run

1) Liquor License Hearing in Boston
Somerville Mayor joseph Curtatone and others will testify at a public hearing in Boston about a home rule petition proposed by Boston City Councilor Ayanna Pressley to uncap liquor licenses in that city, according to an announcement from Pressley's office. Somerville has proposed a similar home rule petition in the past.

The public hearing will be at Boston City Hall at 2 p.m., the announcement says.
