The bill amends Section 3-7-19 of the General Laws in Chapter 3-7, which governs "Retail Licenses," by allowing the city council of Central Falls to exempt a proposed Class BV retail license located at 913-915 Dexter Street, Plat 7, Lot 156, from the existing prohibition against issuing licenses within 200 feet of schools and places of worship. The current law restricts the issuance of certain retail licenses based on proximity to these institutions, and the bill specifically provides the city council with the authority to grant this exemption after application. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
