Bill > H3906

This bill authorizes the town of Somerset, Massachusetts to grant one additional license for the sale of wine and malt beverages to be consumed off-premises at a specific location (2756 County Street). The license is an exception to existing state law (Chapter 138, Section 17) that typically limits the number of such licenses in a town. The license is nontransferable to other locations but can be reissued to a new applicant at the same location, provided they submit a letter from the Department of Revenue showing the license is in good standing and all taxes have been paid. If the license is cancelled, revoked, or no longer in use, it must be returned to the town's licensing authority, which can then reissue it to a new applicant under the same terms and conditions. The bill aims to provide flexibility for local alcohol licensing while maintaining regulatory oversight, and will take effect immediately upon passage.
