Colleagues - 
In the near future, I will be introducing legislation amending Section 464 of the Liquor Code regarding hearings conducted by the Liquor Control Board. 

LCB hearings relate to a variety of topics, but usually revolve around the renewal or transfer of a liquor license.  Traditionally, these hearings were held "in person," but the LCB moved towards online (or virtual) hearings during the COVID pandemic.  This practice continues today, and these virtual hearings have proved popular with the regulated community. 

This legislation will provide a statutory basis to conduct virtual hearings going forward.  An applicant who wishes to hold a traditional in person hearing will be able to do so. 

I encourage your support of this measure.
