Bill > S06905

This bill amends the New York State Alcoholic Beverage Control Law to grant the Village of Ossining, located in Westchester County, the specific authority to create local laws, ordinances, or resolutions that impose more restrictive regulations on the hours of alcohol sales for on-premises consumption than currently exist in state law. Currently, state law sets standard guidelines for when alcoholic beverages can be sold at licensed establishments, but this bill would allow Ossining's local government to create its own more stringent time restrictions on alcohol sales within the village. This means the village could potentially limit the hours during which bars, restaurants, and other licensed establishments can sell alcohol, giving local officials more control over managing alcohol-related activities in their community. The bill would take effect 30 days after becoming law, providing the village with a new tool for local alcohol regulation.
