HB 818 Kentucky House · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT relating to alcoholic beverages.

This bill makes technical corrections to Kentucky's laws governing alcoholic beverage licenses. It clarifies that county administrators handle both license applications and penalties for local licenses, matching the state department's role for state licenses. The bill also specifies that when a city has its own administrator, the county administrator only oversees areas outside the city limits, unless the city lacks adequate police protection. These changes aim to improve clarity in how local and state alcohol licensing responsibilities are divided.
