This bill amends the Michigan Liquor Control Code of 1998, specifically section 513, to allow the Michigan Liquor Control Commission to issue licenses for the sale of alcoholic liquor on the premises of various educational institutions and their associated facilities. The bill permits the governing boards of colleges and universities to obtain licenses for conference centers, hotels, restaurants, golf course clubhouses, and baseball stadiums located on their land, provided certain conditions are met, such as fair market value leasing and location within designated development areas. Notably, the bill introduces a new provision allowing Schoolcraft College to issue a license for a restaurant under specific circumstances.

Additionally, the bill clarifies definitions related to colleges and universities and conference centers, ensuring that the licenses issued are nontransferable and that the licensee pays the required fees. The amendments also include a change in language regarding the number of licensed premises from "is" to "are" for Lake Superior State University, reflecting a grammatical correction. The enactment of this bill is contingent upon the passage of House Bill No. 4595.
