Olneyville New York System applies for liquor licenses
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — Want to enjoy a craft beer — or perhaps a coffee milk cocktail — with your hot wiener? The new owners of Olneyville New York System have applied for permits to sell alcoholic beverages at the restaurant's Providence and Cranston locations. Heritage Restaurant Group, which purchased the restaurant from fourth-generation owners Greg Stevens and Stephanie Stevens Turini in February, told 12 News, 'We are applying for a BV alcoholic beverage license to offer beer and a signature coffee milk cocktail, all to be served responsibly.' 'We believe that offering beer and coffee milk alongside our iconic wieners, burgers, and fries is a natural extension of Rhode Island's rich culinary culture and is an American staple,' Vice President of Hospitality Brad Head continued. BACKGROUND: Olneyville New York System sold to Heritage Restaurant Group At a meeting of Cranston's Safety Services and Licenses Committee on May 5, the committee voted unanimously to approve the restaurant's application for a Class BV Liquor License, which will be issued once Olneyville New York System provides a certificate from the state Department of Health. (The attorney representing Heritage was quick to assure City Councilor Andy Andujar that coffee milk will remain on the menu.) In Providence, the matter was raised at a May 29 Board of Licenses meeting and postponed until June 12. A city spokesperson told 12 News the Board 'wants additional details to be submitted so that the scope and nature of the liquor service can be clearly documented and included in the official record,' and is requiring Olneyville New York System to provide specifics on where the bar and liquor service areas will be located, as well as an updated business plan with provisions for alcohol storage, sales, and service. Jose Moya, a Providence resident who says he remembers when hot wieners were 'three for $1,' told 12 News he's in favor of Olneyville adding beer to the menu. 'It's a very good idea. In the summertime especially, it's going to be good with the food,' Moya said. 'Why not?' Download the and apps to get breaking news and weather alerts. Watch or with the new .

Trump administration eases sanctions on Syria
The Trump administration announced Friday that it would ease sanctions against Syria, making good on President Trump's promise from earlier this month to roll back penalties against the country roiled by years of civil war. The Treasury Department confirmed the move in a statement Friday, saying it issued Syria a General License (GL) 25, authorizing transactions involving the country's new government headed by Ahmad al-Sharaa. GL 25 will allow for new investment and private sector activity, positioning Syria to be free of the sanctions — most of which were imposed during ex-Syrian President Bashar Assad's rule. Assad was driven out of the office by Syrian rebels late last year. Secretary of State Marco said on Friday that he issued a 180-day waiver to make sure that sanctions don't hamper the U.S.'s partners from making investments. The waivers facilitate the provision of water, energy, electricity and allow for a more 'effective' humanitarian response all around Syria, according to Rubio. 'Today's actions represent the first step in delivering on the President's vision of a new relationship between Syria and the United States,' the secretary of state said in a statement. 'President Trump is providing the Syrian government with the chance to promote peace and stability, both within Syria and in Syria's relations with its neighbors.' 'The President has made clear his expectation that relief will be followed by prompt action by the Syrian government on important policy priorities,' he added. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent noted in a statement that Syria has to continue working to become a 'stable' nation that is at 'peace' and that the federal government's action on Friday will 'hopefully put the country on a path to a bright, prosperous, and stable future.' Trump vowed earlier this month, during his multi-stop trip to the Middle East, that he would lift sanctions against Syria. He added that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan advocated for the sanctions to be lifted. The president met with al-Sharaa last week and encouraged the new leader to reject Palestinian and Syrian terrorists and help prevent the resurgence of ISIS, according to the White House.
