Bill > S276

This bill allows the town of Cohasset to issue five additional licenses for selling alcohol to be consumed on the premises, which is an exception to existing state alcohol licensing laws. Specifically, the bill permits the town's licensing authority to grant these new alcohol licenses despite previous restrictions in Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 138, Section 17. These new licenses will be subject to the same regulations outlined in Chapter 138, except for the specific numerical limitation in Section 17. If any of these newly granted licenses are cancelled, revoked, or no longer in use, the license will be returned to the town's licensing authority, which can then reissue the license to a new applicant at the same or a different location. The bill will take effect immediately upon its passage, providing the town of Cohasset with more flexibility in managing its local alcohol licensing.
