Prince George's County - Alcoholic Beverages - Issuance of License Near a Place of Worship or School PG 307-24

This bill allows the Prince George's County Board of License Commissioners to issue alcohol licenses for establishments located within 500 feet of a place of worship or 1,000 feet of a school, provided the same owner held a valid license for that specific site before the religious building or school was constructed. The law maintains existing distance restrictions for new applications and renewals but creates a specific exception for businesses that existed prior to the construction of nearby schools or churches. Additionally, the bill includes localized adjustments for certain districts in Hyattsville, College Park, and Laurel, which have modified distance requirements or exemptions for specific license types.
