Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to liquor; authorizing the city of Bloomington to issue certain on-sale licenses to a municipally owned golf course.

AI Summary

This bill allows the city of Bloomington to obtain and issue on-sale beer and wine licenses for the Dwan Golf Course, which is a municipally owned facility. Despite any existing laws or ordinances that might otherwise prohibit this, the city can now legally serve beer and wine at the golf course. The bill specifies that most provisions of Minnesota's alcohol licensing laws (Chapter 340A) will still apply to this license, and the city of Bloomington will be considered the official licensee. The licensing will be treated similarly to a municipal liquor store, with the same regulatory oversight. The bill becomes effective once the city of Bloomington approves it and meets the state's statutory requirements for implementation. This legislation provides the city with more flexibility in managing and potentially generating revenue from its golf course facility by allowing alcohol sales.
