Alcoholic beverage control.

(1) Existing law, the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, generally prohibits a manufacturer, winegrower, distiller, bottler, or wholesaler, among other licensees, or agents of these licensees, from paying a retailer for advertising. The act creates a variety of exceptions from this prohibition, including permitting specified licensees to purchase advertising space and time from, or on behalf of, an on-sale retail licensee that is an owner, manager, or major tenant at a specified stadium and venue located in the City of Inglewood. This bill would revise the authorization to allow advertising to be placed in areas within the retail, entertainment, commercial, and mixed-use development which includes the stadium and performance venue, provided that the advertising shall not be placed on or in, or otherwise promote, any permanently licensed retail premises other than the stadium or performance venue. (2) Existing law, with exceptions, prohibits a licensee from having upon the licensed premises any alcoholic beverages other than the alcoholic beverage that the licensee is authorized to sell at the premises under their license, and makes a violation of this prohibition punishable as a misdemeanor. This bill would, as an exception to that prohibition, authorize specified licensees that hold more than one of the specified licenses for a single premises to have alcoholic beverages that are authorized under those licenses at the same time anywhere within the premises for purposes of production and storage, if the holder of the licenses maintains records of production and storage that identify the specific location of each alcoholic beverage product within the premises. (3) This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 25503.6 of the Business and Professions Code proposed by SB 717 to be operative only if this bill and SB 717 are enacted and this bill is enacted last.
