Bill Summary

This bill requires the Director of the Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) to waive the fee for the COVID-19 Expansion Permit. On June 3, 2020, the Acting Director of the ABC issued Special Ruling 2020-10, which created a COVID-19 Expansion of Premises Permit. This temporary expansion permit enables certain licensees and permittees with on-premises retail consumption privileges to expand their licensed premises into outdoor areas, either contiguous or non-contiguous to their permanently licensed premises. The special ruling also established a $75 fee for the permit and application process. This bill waives the $75 fee for the COVID-19 Expansion of Premises Permit and requires the Director of ABC to reimburse licensees and permit holders who paid the fee prior to the bill's enactment.
