Bill Summary

Authorizing the town of Milton to grant additional licenses for the sale of all alcoholic beverages to be drunk on the premises

AI Summary

This bill authorizes the town of Milton to grant 5 additional licenses for selling all alcoholic beverages to be consumed on-premises, specifically targeting establishments within five designated economic development zones: East Milton, Central/Milton Village, Curry College/Fuller Village, Mattapan Station Area, and Route 28 Area. Each license will be marked with its specific zone and will be subject to existing alcohol licensing laws, with two key exceptions to standard state regulations. The licenses can only be used in dining rooms or other appropriate public spaces as determined by the town's licensing authority, and they cannot be transferred outside their original designated zone. Licensees must be in good standing with state tax and unemployment departments, and if a license is not renewed, cancelled, or revoked, it will be returned to the licensing authority for potential reissuance. All licenses must be issued within 3 years of the act's effective date, and the bill takes effect immediately upon passage, providing a targeted approach to supporting local business development in specific Milton economic zones.
