The bill amends RCW 66.24.350 to establish a snack bar liquor license that allows the sale of beer and wine for consumption on the premises. The new legal language specifies that the license permits the sale of "wine by the glass at retail, or both," alongside beer, indicating an expansion of the types of alcoholic beverages that can be sold under this license. Additionally, the annual fee for the license is set at $125.

The bill also removes previous provisions that waived the annual fee for certain licensees during a specified 12-month period following February 28, 2021. This includes the deletion of criteria for eligibility for the fee waiver, such as prior licensing history and conditions related to health and safety violations. Overall, the changes aim to streamline the licensing process for snack bars while expanding their ability to serve alcoholic beverages.
