An Act authorizing the town of Palmer to grant additional licenses for the sale of all alcoholic beverages
This bill authorizes the town of Palmer to issue three new licenses for selling alcoholic beverages to specific local businesses. The new permits allow one establishment to serve drinks on the premises, another to serve drinks on the premises, and a third to sell drinks for off-premises consumption. The law includes rules about where the on-premises licenses can be used, how licenses can be transferred or renewed, and the requirement to return old licenses when new ones are issued. These changes directly affect the three named businesses and the town's licensing authority.
