Various municipalities authorized to issue liquor licenses, and requirements of liquor licenses issued to the Board of Regents of the University of Minnesota modified.
HF 3347 modifies Minnesota liquor licensing rules to authorize specific venues to sell alcohol without usual zoning restrictions. It allows St. Paul to issue on-sale licenses to the Fitzgerald Theatre, Science Museum of Minnesota, and Union Depot, bypassing typical distance requirements from schools or churches. The bill also updates rules for the University of Minnesota Board of Regents, permitting licenses for Northrop Auditorium, football stadiums (like TCF Huntington Bank Stadium), and up to seven other campus locations for events. These changes directly affect those specific venues and the Board of Regents by removing barriers to alcohol sales during permitted events.
