An Act authorizing the city of Salem to convert 1 seasonal license for the sale of all alcoholic beverages to be drunk on the premises to an annual license for the sale of all alcoholic beverages to be drunk on the premises and to convert 1 seasonal license for the sale of all alcoholic beverages to be drunk on the premises to an annual license for the sale of wine and malt beverages and cordials to be drunk on the premises
This bill allows Salem city officials to convert two specific seasonal alcohol licenses into annual licenses for two local businesses. It converts Amazing Pizza LLC's license to allow annual sales of wine/malt beverages (instead of seasonal), and Maitland Farm LLC's license to allow annual sales of all alcoholic beverages (instead of seasonal). The converted licenses remain tied to the original business locations, require tax compliance verification for new applicants, and cannot be transferred to other sites. Salem must charge a conversion fee, with excess funds deposited into the city's economic development fund. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage.
