The bill, beginning January 1, 2026, would authorize a local governing body to comply with the above-described requirements and submit an ordinance described above to the department. The bill would also authorize the department to review those ordinances. The bill, beginning June 1, 2026, and subject to the department receiving an applicable ordinance described above, would authorize an on-sale licensee to apply for an additional serving hours license. In this regard, the bill would require an applicant for an additional serving hours license to pay a $2,500 fee at the time of application and specify that the fee for an original and annual additional serving hours license is $2,500, and would require these fees to be deposited into the Alcohol Beverage Control Fund.

The bill would, among other things, prohibit an on-sale licensee from exercising off-sale privileges during the additional serving hours permitted pursuant to an additional serving hours license and specify that an additional serving hours license is not transferrable between on-sale licensed premises. The bill would authorize a local governing body to charge an additional serving hours licensee a fee to fund local law enforcement. The bill would require the department, upon receipt of an application by an on-sale licensee for an additional serving hours license, to make a thorough investigation. The bill would require the applicant to notify law enforcement and residents, who may then file with the department protests and requests for a hearing, as specified.
