Relates to a license to sell liquor at retail for consumption on certain premises
This bill allows liquor retailers in Schoharie County to sell alcohol for on-site consumption within 200 feet of schools, churches, or places of worship, a restriction that typically applies elsewhere in New York. The law specifically targets a small, precisely defined area in the Village of Middleburgh, granting permission to operate a licensed establishment on designated parcels of land despite their proximity to religious or educational buildings. By amending the state's alcoholic beverage control law, the legislation creates a local exception to standard zoning rules for this specific geographic location.
