BILL NUMBER:S3217
Title of bill
An act to amend the alcoholic beverage control law, in relation to a license to sell liquor at retail for consumption on certain premises
Purpose
Provides a license to sell liquor at retail for consumption on certain premises.
Summary of provisions
Section 1: Amends subdivision 7 of section 64 of the alcoholic beverage control law by adding a new paragraph (e-7).
Section 2: Establishes the effective date as immediately.
Justification
The Alcoholic Beverage Control Law prohibits the sale for on premise consumption of alcohol at any location within 200 feet of a place of worship. In the past exceptions have been made for certain establishments that do not pose problems for the place of worship or the surrounding neighborhoods. This bill would exempt Cafe East in Kingston from this provision of law thereby allowing sale and consumption of alcohol in the restaurant.
