An Act authorizing the town of Maynard to grant an additional license for the sale of all alcoholic beverages not to be drunk on the premises
This bill authorizes the town of Maynard to grant Maynard Corner Store LLC (located at 49 Walnut Street) a new license for off-premises alcohol sales (like liquor store purchases), replacing their existing wine/malt beverage license. It allows one additional license at that specific location under state law, with strict rules: the license cannot be moved to a new location, must be returned to Maynard if terminated, and requires proof of tax compliance for renewal. The law took effect immediately upon enactment on October 16, 2025. This is a targeted change for one business, not a broader policy.
