Bill > S07909

This bill modifies the New York State Alcoholic Beverage Control Law by increasing the number of off-premise retail licenses that can be granted to a single person from one to two. Currently, licensees who sell alcoholic beverages for consumption off the premises of their establishment are limited to obtaining just one license under Section 63 of the state's alcoholic beverage control law. The proposed change would allow these retail license holders to now obtain two licenses instead of being restricted to a single license. This modification could potentially provide more flexibility for business owners in the alcohol retail sector, enabling them to expand their operations or manage multiple locations. The bill is straightforward and will take effect immediately upon passage, with the key change being the simple replacement of the phrase "one license" with "two licenses" in the existing law.
