An Act authorizing the town of Wrentham to grant an additional 7 licenses for the sale of all alcoholic beverages to be drunk on the premises
This bill authorizes the town of Wrentham to issue seven new licenses for establishments to sell and serve alcohol on the premises. The licenses are restricted to specific development zones, including Village Zone A, Village Zone B, and the Stonewall Boulevard area, and must be issued within three years of the law taking effect. To maintain control over these new permits, the town cannot transfer a license outside its original zone, and any new applicant must prove they have paid all required taxes and fees. The act also requires that licenses be returned to the town if they are cancelled or not renewed, ensuring the total number of these specific permits remains at seven.
