AI Summary

This bill creates a new requirement for retail alcohol licensees in Kentucky, mandating that they obtain liquor liability insurance as a condition of receiving or renewing their license. Specifically, the bill requires these licensees to have insurance coverage of at least $250,000 for bodily injury or death of a single person and $500,000 for bodily injury or death of multiple people in incidents arising from the sale or service of alcoholic beverages on their premises. The insurance proof must be submitted to the appropriate government department in an acceptable form. This legislation aims to provide financial protection for potential victims of alcohol-related incidents by ensuring that establishments serving alcohol have sufficient insurance coverage to compensate for potential damages or injuries that may occur as a result of their alcohol service.
