Bill Summary
Revise alcohol and gaming law relating to county all-beverages licenses
AI Summary
This bill temporarily allows for the reclassification and relocation of up to six county all-beverages licenses to incorporated cities or towns within the same county, provided certain criteria are met, such as population growth and overlapping quota area boundaries. The Department of Revenue will use a competitive bidding process to determine who can apply for these reclassified licenses, with the minimum bid set at 25% of the market value of all-beverages licenses in the city or town. These reclassified licenses have some restrictions, such as not being eligible for concession agreements, catering endorsements, or gambling. The bill also amends existing law related to the transfer of all-beverages licenses and the Department's competitive bidding process.
