The bill modifies the requirements for liquor licenses issued to the Board of Regents of the University of Minnesota and other entities. It allows the Board of Regents to obtain on-sale intoxicating liquor licenses for specific locations, including Northrop Auditorium and the intercollegiate football stadium, with the provision that licenses can be issued for non-contiguous spaces as long as they are described in the approved license applications. Additionally, the bill specifies that no alcoholic beverages may be sold at Huntington Bank Stadium unless the Board holds a valid license for that location, and sales must be available through half-time during intercollegiate football games.

Furthermore, the bill amends the restrictions on issuing liquor licenses in certain areas, specifically removing the prohibition on issuing licenses on the campus of the College of Agriculture of the University of Minnesota. The bill retains other existing restrictions related to zoning ordinances and specific locations such as the Capitol grounds and the State Fairgrounds. The effective date for these changes is set for the day following final enactment.
