An Act authorizing the town of Montague to grant an additional license for the sale of all alcoholic beverages 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. Notwithstanding section 17 of chapter 138 of the General Laws or any other general or special, rule or regulation to the contrary, the licensing authority of the town of Montague may grant 1 additional license for the sale of all alcoholic beverages to be consumed on premises under section 12 of said chapter 138. The license shall be restricted to Five Eyed Fox located at 37 Third Street, in the Turners Falls Village in said town. A license granted under this section shall be subject to all of said chapter 138 except said section 17.
The licensing authority shall not approve the transfer of the license issued under this section to any other location, but it may grant the license to a new applicant at the same location if the applicant files with the authority a letter from the department of revenue and a letter from the department of unemployment assistance indicating that the license is in good standing with those departments and that all applicable taxes, fees and contributions have been paid.
If the license granted under this act is cancelled, revoked or no longer in use at the location of original issuance, the license shall be returned physically, with all of the 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 under the same conditions as specified in this act.
SECTION 2. This act shall take effect upon its passage.
