LC 889 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Revise alcohol laws relating to community care retirement facility licenses

This bill updates Montana's alcohol regulations for continuing care retirement communities by allowing them to apply for a special limited all-beverages license. The license permits on-premises alcohol service in designated dining areas during specific hours (11 a.m. to 8 p.m.) and allows delivery to individual resident units, with strict requirements that only residents or their guests purchase alcohol and that servers complete responsible service training. The legislation also clarifies rules for multiple buildings or campuses within a community, permitting alcohol service in separate locations like patios, decks, and swimming pool areas, while prohibiting off-premises sales and gaming activities.
