relative to the carrying of alcoholic beverages on hotel premises and monthly deposits from the liquor commission to the general fund.

This bill allows hotel guests to carry one alcoholic drink from the hotel bar or restaurant to their room, provided they do not take it into a vehicle. The law clarifies that hotels are not required to offer this service but cannot forbid it if they choose to allow it, while also permitting hotels to designate specific areas where carrying alcohol is prohibited. It updates existing regulations to explicitly permit this practice and does not change the monthly deposit requirements for the liquor commission. The changes take effect 60 days after the bill is passed.
