This bill repeals sections of the Arizona Revised Statutes related to concealed weapons, specifically focusing on the conditions under which a director can suspend, revoke, or refuse to renew a concealed weapons license. It addresses notice requirements, potential grounds for revocation (such as repeated violence or providing alcohol to intoxicated individuals), and clarifies responsibilities for restaurants regarding concealed handguns. Notably, it includes provisions regarding the sale of spirituous liquor, particularly concerning drive-through windows and the use of spirituous liquor by employees. The bill also modifies sections related to firearm permits and liability for serving intoxicated persons or minors.
