HD 5438 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act authorizing the town of South Hadley to grant additional licenses for the sale of all alcoholic beverages

This bill authorizes the town of South Hadley to issue four new licenses for businesses to serve alcoholic beverages for immediate on-site consumption (like in restaurants or bars) and two new licenses for businesses to sell alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption (like in liquor stores). On-site licenses must be used exclusively in dining rooms or approved public areas of restaurants and cannot be moved to a different location. If a license is terminated, the town may reissue it at the same location within three years to a new business that has paid all taxes and fees. Additionally, businesses receiving a new off-site license must return their existing wine and malt beverage license to the town.
