An Act authorizing the town of Harwich to issue three additional liquor licenses.

 

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 or any other general or special, rule or regulation to the contrary, the licensing authority of the town of Harwich may grant three (3) additional licenses for the sale of all alcoholic beverages to be consumed on premises under section 12 of said chapter 138 as follows: one license to Blue Stripe LLC d/b/a Cape Sea Grille, to be exercised at 31 Sea St., in the Town of Harwich Port; one license to Ember Pizza, Inc. d/b/a Ember, to be exercised at 600 Route 28, in the Town of Harwich Port; and one license to Pleasant Bay Group Inc. d/b/a Wequassett Inn, to be exercised at 2173 Route 28, in the Town of Harwich.  Licenses granted under this section shall be subject to all of said chapter 138 except said section 17.

(b)  Once issued, the licensing authority shall not approve the transfer of a license issued under this act to any other location, but it may grant a license to a new applicant at the same location if the applicant files with the authority a letter from the department of revenue indicating that the license is in good standing with the department and that all applicable taxes have been paid.

(c)  If any of the licenses granted under this section is cancelled, revoked or no longer in use, it 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 passage.
