A 1934: Provides an exemption from certain requirements for a license to sell liquor at retail for consumption on certain premises

This bill creates a specific exemption for a single business location in Walden, Orange County, allowing it to obtain a liquor license for on-premises consumption despite typically restrictive distance rules. It exempts the property at 79 West Main Street (precisely defined by legal boundaries) from standard requirements that would normally prohibit liquor licenses within 200 feet of a church, synagogue, or place of worship. The exemption applies only to this one location, which is wholly within Orange County and meets the defined geographic boundaries. The bill does not change general liquor licensing rules but provides a targeted exception for this specific property.
