Bill > SF864

This bill establishes a new licensing requirement for third-party delivery services that want to deliver alcoholic beverages in Minnesota. The bill requires these services to obtain a specific license from the commissioner, which costs $500 annually and can only be issued if the service meets certain requirements. Delivery personnel must be at least 21 years old and can only be employees or independent contractors of the licensed delivery service. When delivering alcoholic beverages, these individuals must verify the age of the recipient at the point of delivery and ensure the purchaser is at least 21 years old. The bill also mandates that delivery personnel complete alcoholic beverages awareness training before making deliveries and provides proof of completion to the delivery service, which must be able to present this documentation to the commissioner if requested. Additionally, the third-party delivery service must obtain liquor liability insurance. The overall goal of the bill is to regulate and ensure responsible alcohol delivery by establishing clear guidelines and safety measures for third-party delivery services in Minnesota.
