Permits the city of Saratoga Springs to adopt a resolution requesting further restriction of hours of sale of alcoholic beverages within such city

Bill A 8198 permits the city of Saratoga Springs to adopt a resolution requesting stricter hours for the sale of alcoholic beverages within its city limits. This bill grants the city's legislative body the authority to initiate such a request. If the city adopts a resolution within 12 months of the bill becoming law, an authority will then hold a notice and hearing to decide whether to approve or disapprove the proposed restricted hours. This allows Saratoga Springs to potentially set earlier closing times for alcohol sales than currently mandated by state law.
