Bill Summary

Relative to large project based alcoholic beverages licenses. Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure.

AI Summary

This bill establishes a new type of alcoholic beverage license called a "restricted project-based license" for large commercial developments, such as shopping centers or mixed-use projects, in communities with over 500,000 residents or those with a minimum 150,000 square feet of gross leasable area. The bill allows the local licensing authority to grant an "umbrella restricted project-based license" to the owner of a qualifying project, under which additional restricted project-based licenses can be issued to businesses operating within the project. These licenses are not subject to the municipal quota set forth in existing law, and the owner of the qualifying project must pay a $150,000 licensing fee.
