The bill amends the Michigan liquor control code of 1998 by updating definitions and classifications related to the sale of alcoholic beverages. It introduces new legal language that defines "cash" and "financial records," while also clarifying the definitions of "church," "Class A hotel," "Class B hotel," and "Class C license." Notably, the bill removes the previous definitions of "Class C license," "Class A hotel," and "Class B hotel," replacing them with more specific criteria regarding the number of bedrooms required based on the population of the local governmental unit.
Additionally, the bill modifies the definitions of "Class G-1" and "Class G-2" licenses, which pertain to golf courses, and updates the definition of "club" to exclude associations organized for commercial purposes. The changes aim to streamline the regulatory framework governing the sale of alcoholic beverages in Michigan, ensuring that definitions are clear and aligned with current practices. Overall, the bill seeks to enhance the clarity and effectiveness of the liquor control code.
