HB 1387 Maryland House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

Howard County - Alcoholic Beverages - Class D Licenses - Delivery

HB 1387 modifies Howard County's rules for delivering alcoholic beverages under Class D licenses (held by businesses like restaurants or retailers). It restricts deliveries to within Howard County only, requires delivery personnel to verify the recipient's age (21+) with valid ID and document this, and mandates that someone 21+ must be physically present to accept the order at delivery time. The bill also requires both the deliverer and recipient to sign a form confirming these conditions were met. These changes directly affect Class D license holders and their employees who deliver alcohol within Howard County.
