What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill creates a licensing exception allowing retail sales of alcohol beverages

at the state fair park.

Under current law, with limited exceptions, no person may sell alcohol

beverages to a consumer unless the seller possesses a license or permit authorizing

the sale.

This bill creates a licensing exception under which a person who meets certain

qualifications and is approved by the State Fair Park Board may, without a retail

license or permit, make retail sales of alcohol beverages at the state fair park for

consumption at the state fair park. However, an approved winery trade association

may also make retail sales of wine for consumption away from the state fair park.

The same State Fair Park Board approval is also required for a brewer or brewpub

that makes retail sales at the state fair park.
