Bill Summary
A BILL IN THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA To amend Subchapter III of Chapter 3 of Title 25 of the District of Columbia Official Code to establish the Targeted ANC 8A Moratorium Zone and to limit the number of off-premises retailer’s class A or B licenses in the Targeted ANC 8A Moratorium Zone.
AI Summary
This bill establishes a "Targeted ANC 8A Moratorium Zone," which is a specific geographic area within the District of Columbia, and places limits on the number of certain types of alcohol licenses that can be issued within this zone. Specifically, it restricts the number of "off-premises retailer's licenses class A" (typically for beer and wine) to a maximum of three and "off-premises retailer's licenses class B" (typically for spirits) to a maximum of one within the defined zone. However, these restrictions do not apply to businesses that operate as full-service grocery stores, hotels, restaurants, or taverns, meaning these establishments can still obtain such licenses. The Mayor is authorized to create rules to implement these provisions, which will be subject to a 30-day review period by the Council.
