This bill changes
the methodology for determining the number of agency liquor stores in a
municipality from being determined by population to being determined by the
municipality, places ownership limits on applications for agency liquor
stores and allows the Bureau of Alcoholic Beverages and Lottery Operations
(BABLO) the option of not issuing a license if certain criteria are not
met. The removal of a population-based
limit on agency liquor stores in a municipality may generate additional
General Fund revenue. However, because the number of new licenses issued is
dependent upon the number of agency liquor stores authorized by a
municipality, no estimate of additional revenue is made at this time. |
