An Act authorizing the city of Revere to grant two additional licenses for the sale of all alcoholic beverages not to be drunk on the premises
This bill authorizes the city of Revere to issue up to two new licenses for selling alcoholic beverages for off-premises consumption, such as takeout or delivery. The licenses are restricted to businesses located within a specific area known as the Suffolk Downs Overlay District and must be clearly marked as such. The city retains the power to set conditions for these licenses and can only transfer them to new applicants within the designated district if all state taxes and fees are paid. If a license is not renewed or is cancelled, the city may reissue it to a new applicant within two years, provided they meet the same requirements.
