HB 2842: Nonprofit liquor licenses

Concerning nonprofit special occasion liquor licenses.

Summary

  • Requires the Liquor and Cannabis Board (LCB) to issue a warning for violations of requirements for special occasion liquor licensees in certain circumstances, instead of issuing a civil penalty.
  • Limits when the LCB may suspend or revoke a special occasion license to when there is a record of repeated violations justifying, from a public safety perspective, prohibiting the licensee from continuing to operate.
  • Provides that a former special occasion licensee whose license was revoked may reapply for a license after a period of time set by the LCB not to exceed four years.
