Baltimore City - Alcoholic Beverages - Class B Beer, Wine, and Liquor Licenses

This bill authorizes the Baltimore City Board of License Commissioners to issue a specific Class B license for restaurants located in Ward 4, Precincts 1 and 2. To qualify, a restaurant must derive at least 51% of its daily revenue from food sales, be classified as a high or moderate priority food service facility by the city health department, and sign a memorandum of understanding with the Downtown Partnership of Baltimore. The license restricts the sale of alcohol for off-premises consumption, prohibits transferring the license to a new location, and requires annual verification of financial data by a certified public accountant. Additionally, the bill sets a sunset date of June 30, 2028, after which no new licenses under these specific terms will be issued, though existing ones may be renewed.
