AN ACT RELATING TO ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES -- LICENSES GENERALLY

This bill authorizes the town of Scituate to issue a total of three Class A liquor licenses, regardless of its population size. It amends state law to create a specific exception for Scituate, allowing this fixed number of licenses instead of the standard population-based limit that applies to other towns. The change directly affects the town's ability to regulate alcohol sales by setting a clear cap on the number of licenses available. This provision takes effect immediately upon passage.
