This bill authorizes the town of Maynard to grant an additional license for the sale of all alcoholic beverages not to be consumed on the premises, specifically to Maynard Corner Store LLC located at 49 Walnut Street. This new license will be granted notwithstanding section 17 of chapter 138 of the General Laws, meaning that the usual restrictions of that section do not apply. The licensing authority is prohibited from transferring this license to another location but can grant it to a new applicant at the same location under certain conditions, including the submission of letters from the department of revenue and the department of unemployment assistance confirming good standing.
Additionally, if the license is terminated, not renewed, or otherwise becomes inactive, it must be returned to the licensing authority, which can then reissue it to a new applicant at the same location within three years. The bill also stipulates that upon issuance of the new license, the licensee must return their existing license for the sale of wine and malt beverages not to be consumed on the premises. The act will take effect immediately upon passage.
