Bill overview
This bill changes how local governments approve liquor licenses in Michigan. It requires that a specially designated merchant license or a specially designated distributor license must be approved by the city or town’s local legislative body before the state commission can issue it. The bill also adjusts the number of licenses allowed based on population, with potential waivers for areas without existing licensees, and includes specific requirements for applicants who hold certain other licenses or operate in certain locations.
