Bill > SB669

This bill separates the on-premises license for licensed barbershops and salons into two distinct tiers: a tier 1 license, which allows for the complimentary serving of one alcoholic beverage per customer per appointment (not exceeding specific volume limits), and a tier 2 license, which permits the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption, provided these sales are incidental to barbering or cosmetology services and not a standalone bar or restaurant operation. Both license tiers have specific fees ($100 for tier 1, $480 for tier 2), require licensees to maintain records of patrons or sales, and prohibit serving alcohol to individuals under 21. Additionally, licensees must complete a management training seminar, and the liquor commission is mandated to submit an annual report to the legislature detailing license activity, inspections, and violations. The bill also clarifies that these licenses cannot be issued to establishments located within a private residence and will take effect 60 days after passage.
