Ludlow officials would be allowed to issue three additional alcohol licenses

Ludlow's licensing officials would be allowed to grant three additional licenses to sell alcoholic drinks for consumption on site. The authorization would cover licenses in Ludlow for all types of alcoholic drinks. The licenses would follow chapter 138, the state's alcohol licensing law, except section 17. The authorization would take effect upon passage of the act.

Upon initial issuance, Ludlow officials could approve moving a license to another location or grant a license to a new applicant at the same location. These rules would cover licenses granted under this bill. A new applicant at the same location would need letters from the Department of Revenue and Department of Unemployment Assistance confirming the license is in good standing and all applicable taxes, fees, and contributions are paid. A license canceled, revoked, or no longer used at its original location would have to be physically returned to local licensing officials. They could grant it to a new applicant at that location under the same conditions. These rules would take effect upon passage of the act.
