This bill amends and reenacts specific provisions of Louisiana's Revised Statutes concerning the notice of hearings conducted by the Office of Alcohol and Tobacco Control within the Department of Revenue. Key changes include the removal of the requirement that the notice be issued no less than ten nor more than thirty calendar days from the date of the notice, allowing for more flexibility in scheduling. The bill also introduces new methods for delivering notices, allowing them to be transmitted electronically to the address designated by the permittee, in addition to personal delivery or certified mail.

Furthermore, the bill clarifies that service by electronic means is considered complete upon transmission unless it is known that the transmission did not reach the designated address. This update aims to streamline the notification process for hearings related to permit applications and revocations, ensuring that applicants and permittees receive timely and effective communication regarding their cases.
