Prince George's County - Alcoholic Beverages - Notice of License Applications PG 322-26

HB 1270 updates notice requirements for alcoholic beverage license applications in Prince George’s County. It replaces the previous requirement to publish notices in local newspapers with new digital methods: posting on the Board’s website, social media, and via email at least 30 days before application deadlines. The bill also adds a requirement to display physical notices at the business location for 10 days before hearings. These changes directly affect businesses applying for alcohol licenses in Prince George’s County, streamlining public notice processes under Maryland’s Alcoholic Beverages and Cannabis code (specifically amending Sections 26-1511(c)(2) and 26-1512(a)). The law takes effect July 1, 2026.
