The Foxborough Select Board approved a one-day beer-and-wine license for TPM International Inc., doing business as 11 o Pickleball, for June 26, 2026, and took several routine administrative votes, including accepting two donations and approving minutes.
Board members spent several minutes discussing the event’s direction before the vote. A Select Board member said the board supports small businesses but was "a little surprised at the direction" and noted the proposed event "revolves around alcohol," calling for clarity about the business’s longer-term plans and operations. Staff repeatedly emphasized the town’s obligation to enforce permitting and operational requirements.
Town staff explained the temporary-license procedure. A staff member said the existing liquor license must be returned to the police department the night before the event and that the town would issue a beer-and-wine temporary license — "beer and wine only" — which could be returned to the venue the following day. The board inserted the license-return requirement into the motion.
Select Board member (S5) moved to approve the one-day beer-and-wine application for TPM International Inc., doing business as 11 o Pickleball, at 340 Pia Place for 06/26/2026; a fellow member seconded the motion as amended to require the existing license be dropped off the day before. The board voted in favor; no opposition was recorded.
Votes at a glance: the board also approved acceptance of a $300 donation from the Massachusetts Merit Marine Trades Educational Trust to the recreation department for its annual fishing derby, and accepted a $2,000 donation from Hesco Health and Social Services Consortium Inc. to the Public Safety Building. On the Hesco gift, staff said the donation will be used to provide food vendors (ice cream, hot dogs) as part of a "comfort Wednesdays" effort to support police and fire personnel and their families; town fiscal staff said the check, made out to the town, will be deposited in the police association fund and disbursed via voucher.
The board approved the Select Board meeting minutes from 06/23/2026 and adjourned the meeting.
