AI Summary

This bill authorizes the town of Lincoln to grant a specific license to Blazes, Inc. for the sale of all alcoholic beverages intended to be consumed on the premises, overriding certain existing state laws regarding licensing. The license will be subject to the regulations of Chapter 138 of the Massachusetts General Laws, which governs alcoholic beverages, except for specific provisions, and will also adhere to rules set by the Massachusetts Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission. The bill also stipulates that the location of the licensed establishment cannot be transferred without approval, and if the license is no longer in use, it can be reissued to a new applicant at the same location under the same conditions. Furthermore, the town of Lincoln's voters will have the opportunity to approve this authorization through a ballot question at a local election, and if a majority votes in favor, the town will be officially empowered to issue this license to Blazes, Inc.
