Bill > HF2290

This bill establishes a new licensing framework for third-party delivery services (like apps such as Uber Eats or DoorDash) that want to deliver alcoholic beverages in Minnesota. The bill requires these services to obtain a specific license from the state commissioner, which costs $500 annually. To be eligible for the license, delivery services must ensure their employees or contractors are at least 21 years old, verify the age of customers at the point of delivery, and complete alcoholic beverage awareness training. The bill prohibits alcohol delivery unless it is done by a licensed off-sale liquor retailer or a third-party delivery service with the appropriate license. Additionally, the delivery service must obtain liquor liability insurance. The key goal appears to be creating a regulated environment for alcohol delivery that ensures age verification, proper training, and accountability for third-party delivery services.
