Bill > A08795

This bill creates a specific exemption to the New York State Alcoholic Beverage Control Law, which typically prohibits alcohol sales within 200 feet of a church or place of worship. The exemption applies to a precisely defined parcel of land located in the City of Glens Falls, Warren County, New York. The bill provides an extremely detailed geographic description of the property, including specific measurements and boundaries, which appears to be a very precise legal definition of a particular piece of real estate. By creating this exemption, the bill would allow alcohol sales on this specific property even though it is near a place of worship, effectively creating a localized zoning or regulatory exception. The extremely specific nature of the description suggests this is likely a targeted piece of legislation designed to address a particular local business or property development situation. The bill would take effect immediately upon passage, allowing for immediate implementation of the alcohol sales exemption for this specific property.
