An Act authorizing the town of Wayland to grant an additional license for the sale of all alcoholic beverages not to be drunk on the premises.

 

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
 

SECTION 1.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 17 of Chapter 138 of the General Laws, the licensing authority of the Town of Wayland may grant an additional license for the sale of all alcoholic beverages not to be drunk on the premises pursuant to section 15 of said Chapter 138, to Eastbrook, Inc., located at 87 Andrews Avenue, Wayland, Massachusetts. The license shall be subject to said Chapter 138, except said section 17;

(b) Upon the issuance of the license authorized by this act, Eastbrook, Inc. shall surrender to the licensing authority the license currently held for the sale of wines and malt beverages not to be drunk on the premises;

(c) The licensing authority shall not approve the transfer of the license to any other location, but it may grant the license to a new applicant at the same location if the applicant files with the licensing authority a letter from the Department of Revenue and the department of unemployment assistance indicating that the licensee is in good standing with those entities, and that all applicable taxes have been paid;

(d) If the license granted under this act is cancelled, revoked, or no longer in use, it shall be physically returned with all legal rights, privileges and restrictions pertaining thereto, to the licensing authority, which may then grant the license to a new applicant at the same location and under the same conditions as specified in this act.

SECTION 2.

This action shall take effect upon its passage.
