Fiscal Detail and Notes
This legislation creates a combined license for agency liquor stores that also sell beer and wine.  Currently, the total of the licenses required in this situation equals $700 with a $10 registration fee.  This bill retains the $700 license fee and reduces the occurrence of the $10 registration fee.  It is assumed that 90% of agency liquor stores would opt for this new license, resulting in a decrease in General Fund revenues of $4,050 beginning in fiscal year 2011-12.
