Sec. 6-74Conditions and limitations of license
Needs a look
When the code points to the wrong rule, applicants can't tell what's required, and denials or revocations become easier to challenge. See the fix
Plain English: what this chapter covers
This is the rulebook for selling, serving and drinking alcohol in Ashburn. It covers who can get a beer, wine or liquor license and how the city council grants, renews, suspends or takes one away; what hours stores and bars can sell; rules for events, BYOB ('brown bagging') and catering; the city's alcohol excise taxes; and a ban on drinking or open containers on city streets and property.
The grant and issuance of an alcoholic beverage license to an applicant shall be conditioned upon:
(1) Payment of all fees, charges and taxes applicable thereto;
(2) Obtaining and maintenance of a license issued by the state department of revenue to the applicant for the location listed in the application for the same type activity which is authorized in the alcoholic beverage license issued by the city;
(3) Obtaining and maintaining a business license issued by the city with respect to the business in which such alcoholic beverage license is to be utilized;
(4) All statements, representations and information contained in the application for such license and all renewal and amended applications relative thereto continuing to remain materially unchanged except to the extent contained in amended application which have been granted pursuant to the provisions of section 6-90; and
(5) Compliance with all requirements and provisions of this chapter and all laws, rules and regulations of the state relative to the sale, distribution and possession of alcoholic beverages.
