H 4570 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act authorizing the town of Pembroke to issue one additional license

HD 5140 allows the Town of Pembroke to issue one new retail license for alcohol beverages at 256 Church Street (Parcel ID: G15-38), overriding certain existing licensing rules. This directly affects the town's licensing authority and future applicants seeking to operate at that specific location. The license cannot be moved to another site, and new applicants must provide proof from tax and unemployment departments that all fees are paid. If the license is cancelled or unused, it must be returned to the town, which may then issue it to a new applicant at the same or a different location.
