Bill > A08201

This bill makes permanent certain provisions related to liquidator's permits and temporary retail permits by removing the expiration date for these permits under the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law. Specifically, the bill eliminates the previous language that would have automatically repealed paragraph (b) of subdivision 1 of section 97-a on October 12, 2025, effectively making these permit provisions permanent. Liquidator's permits typically allow for the sale of alcoholic beverage inventory when a business is closing or changing ownership, while temporary retail permits enable businesses to sell alcohol under specific short-term circumstances. By removing the sunset clause, the bill ensures that these permit types will continue to be available without a predetermined expiration date. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, providing ongoing flexibility for businesses in the alcoholic beverage industry to manage inventory and conduct temporary sales.
