Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill allows a municipality or county to sell wine and distilled spirits in its
public parks without an alcohol beverage license.
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. Under one exception, no license or permit is required for the sale, by officers
or employees of a county or municipality, of fermented malt beverages (beer) in a
public park operated by the county or municipality.
The bill applies this exception to wine and distilled spirits, along with beer.
