Information re: Alcoholic Beverage Sales

The County is receiving a number of inquiries regarding the three alcoholic beverage referenda that were approved by the voters on November 6, 2012.  Approval of these referenda authorizes the County to regulate the sale of package sales of beer and wine on Sundays and the sale of distilled spirits by the drink.  To this end, the County has adopted a revised alcoholic beverage ordinance that will go into effect on January 1, 2013. (O-070312b O-070312b).  The County will also be considering zoning ordinance amendments that specify where by the drink sales will be permitted. 

 

As provided by the Alcoholic Beverage ordinance, beginning January 1, 2013:

 ·         Those with package sale licenses will be permitted to sell beer and wine, by the package, between the hours of 12:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. on Sundays; and

·         Applications for a license to sell alcoholic beverages by the drink in appropriately zoned areas will be available from the Development Services Office.
