Bill Summary

For legislation to authorize the town of Middleborough to grant an additional license for the sale of wines and malt beverages not to be drunk on the premises. Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure. [Local Approval Received.]

AI Summary

This bill authorizes the town of Middleborough to issue one additional license for the sale of wines and malt beverages, specifically for consumption off the premises, to Reynolds Flowers, Inc. at 410 Plymouth Street. This is an exception to existing law, which generally limits the number of such licenses a town can grant, and the license will be governed by Chapter 138 of the General Laws, except for the section that restricts license numbers. The bill also states that this particular license cannot be transferred to a different location, but it can be reissued to a new applicant at the same address if they demonstrate good standing with the departments of revenue and unemployment assistance, meaning all taxes, fees, and contributions are paid. If the license is no longer used, it will be returned to the town's licensing authority, which can then grant it to a new applicant at the same location under the same conditions.
