An Act authorizing the town of Dartmouth to grant an additional license for the sale of all alcoholic beverages not to be drunk on the premises
This bill authorizes the town of Dartmouth to issue a specific new license to Farm and Coast Market for selling alcoholic beverages that must be consumed off-site. The legislation allows the town to grant this additional permit only to the named business at its current location and restricts transferring the license to other businesses or places. If the current license holder stops operating or fails to renew, the town can reissue the same license to a new applicant at that address after verifying tax compliance. The law also requires the market to return its existing wine and malt beverage license once the new off-premises license is approved.
