RELATING TO LIQUOR LICENSES.
Summary
Requires the liquor commission to reduce submission requirements for the issuance of temporary licenses for the sale of liquor for a period not to exceed one day for fundraising events by nonprofit organizations. Permits nonprofit organizations that have been issued a temporary liquor license for a fundraising event the ability to auction off, at a live or silent auction, liquor in sealed or covered containers or services that provide liquor. Removes, from the list of factors the liquor commission may consider when deciding on a previously denied, refused, or withdrawn liquor license application, language that allows any other considerations deemed by the liquor commission to affect the application, issuance, or exercise of a liquor license.
