(b) The licensing authority shall not approve the transfer of a license granted pursuant to this act 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 a letter from the department of unemployment assistance indicating the license is in good standing with those departments and that all applicable taxes, fees, and contributions have been paid.

(c) If a licensee terminates or fails to renew a license granted under this act or any such license 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, within 3 years after such return, then grant the license to a new applicant at the same location under the same conditions as specified in this section, otherwise the license shall then dissolve.

(d) The license granted under this act shall be issued within 1 year after the effective date of this act; provided, however, that if the license is originally granted within that time period, it may be granted to a new applicant under subsections (b) and (c) thereafter.

SECTION 2. This Act shall take effect upon its passage.
