HF 2424 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Two Harbors authorized to issue a social district liquor license.

HF 2424 authorizes the city of Two Harbors to issue social district liquor licenses, allowing people to consume alcohol purchased from nearby licensed businesses in designated public areas. The bill requires the city to define specific boundaries, hours, and days for consumption, mandate unique container labeling (no glass, 16oz max, "Drink Responsibly" statement), and ensure disposal of alcohol before leaving the district. It also mandates a city management plan, public safety monitoring, and a 24-month report to the legislature on community impact and operational challenges. This directly affects Two Harbors residents, local businesses with on-sale licenses, and city officials managing public space regulations.
